CAF Reveal Final Five For African Footballer Of The Year- Mikel Obi Missing! by Nobody: 12:53pm On Nov 23, 2012 |
Dede Ayew, Demba Ba, Didier Drogba, Alex Song and Yaya Toure are the final five nominees for the Confederation of African Football's Player of the Year award. Ivory Coast and Manchester City's Toure won the accolade last year. Caf initially named 34 players who they were considering for the award before cutting that down to 10 names. The final nominees were decided by votes from the head coaches and technical directors of the football associations affiliated to Caf. The 2012 Caf African Footballer of the Year will be crowned at an awards ceremony in the Ghana capital, Accra, on 20 December.

With the quality of the players on the list, I honestly think African player individual ability has not progressed or even has declined. |

Mikel... A midfielder that played over 1,000,000 games last year and didn't bag one goal or one assist. You don't win awards by passing sideways. His inclusion in the original list was unmerited sef. 5 Likes |

Intrepid!: You will be surprised you don't have to score to be a good player. Get better criteria to make your point. |

Not surprised at all. Mikel Obi would have made the cut but his dedication to national assignments must have adversely affected him. 1 Like |

Ayew n song?i laugh at caf.that moroccan played better dan ayew in france,and he won ligue 1 for lille.if song is there,definitely mikel should be there as well.song played nothing last year when mikel was bossing the midfield against barca and bayern munich.this caf is bias.demba ba played well till cisse came and stole the show.my final 3 should be,drogba,toure n mikel. |

Na wa 4 CAF! Not even one prayer from one of their Major tournament (Nation Cup) No single Zambia player or from the winner of CAF champions league. Invariable they are saying the African league and their own major competition do not have an impact in this award selection. Kudos to they technical team [color=#006600][/color] 1 Like |
