When people said love was blind, they weren't talking about romantic love...chei!!

All you people that said Mikel deserved to win the award, I know you will vote all your people into office with your eyes closed. Load up YouTube, watch Yaya and Mikel and then come back and tell me with a straight face that the wrong person one. Is that what they taught you at school, to be lying in the name of nationalism?

There are too many people even at Chelsea who groan whenever they see Mikel on the team sheet. I have fam that support chelsea and hate Obi (I actually like him). And this is who you want to compare to Mr Yaya Toure??

If you want to blame anyone else - after CAF, Francophone, Ghana, South Africa, Yorubas, Lagos, NTA, Supersport, Blatter, Toure's mum and Dad - blame Mourinho!!! Cos if Mikel could play the same way for Chelsea as he plays for Nigeria, the outcome would have been different.

You really didn't try at all......

Yaya deserves it in every possible way.

CAF God is watching you...

Mikel won the African Nations Cup with Nigeria and Europa Cup with Chelsea..He is one of the most consistent player at Chelsea and was instrumental to Nigeria's qualification for Brazil 2014 World Cup..He also showed class at the FIFA Confederation Cup..Yaya Toure though good won nothing with Country and Manchester City last year..Infact Mancity dismal performance in the Champions league last year and Nigeria's superiority over Ivory Coast at the Semi Finals of Nations Cup last year is enough reason to hand Mikel the Award.

CAF God is watching you...

What do u think this mean?
It is a big flurp to CAF officials & African football When the winner knows He didn't deserve the AWARD given to him.
This is the right time for English Speaking African Country to back out of CAF, If not it will continue like this, Franco'fo country has upper hand in Caf than the English.

And sorry, what section of NTA did you read the rules that the winner of the award would be chosen based on what they did for their national sides?? It is an INDIVIDUAL award, based on how they played for the whole year. The 'African' part of the award is to let people know that only AFRICANS are eligible for the award, not that it will be based on what the players did in Africa only, olodo.

These people that want to make it look like Mikel Maradonna'd Chelsea and Nigeria to their respective trophies.......The literature section awaits you, fabulators.

Mikel really impressed last year no doubts buh that doesn't guarantee him the award.. Even Enyeama woulda been a better choice for the award.. The only notable thing is the Europa Cup he lifted and the Nations Cup too.. Think of it, @ d Nations cup, Sunday Mba was the star man.. @ the Confed Cup, Mikel tried but it was an average performance.. @ Chelsea, he's being benched not cuz his coach is biased, Mikel's Gameplay needs a complete Overhaul.. I've seen DMF's n CMF's that are damn good.. Sergio Busquets | Cheik Tiote | Fernandinho | Cabaye | Yaya Toure etc, These dudes throw in crunching Tackles, break-up play, Spread passes and ease burden off the team.. What can Mikel Do, Throw tackle and still play a Back Pass(Most times Unnecessary).. I Think the award should go to Yaya Toure.. He's been consistent, a tireless worker and full of contribution on pitch.. Incase u are still confused, here are details:

Lemme Compare Yaya | Mikel..

Consistency - Yaya Toure
Defence Splitting Passes - Yaya Toure
Shots - Yaya Toure
Goals - Yaya Toure
Hold up Play - Yaya Toure
DMF Role - Mikel
CMF , AMF - Yaya Toure
Dribbles, Movement - Yaya Toure
Aerial Threat - Yaya Toure
Set-Piece Threat - Yaya Toure
Team Stat - Yaya = 90% Contribution
Team Stat - Mikel = 35% Contribution

How come people saying Mikel Deserves Baller
of The Year.. He's Good Though, Buh Yaya is a
Beast, A Monster and the Best Black Midfielder
in the world.. Yaya is among Top Ten
Midfielders Right Now in the World.. There's no Club in the world that can afford to Bench Yaya Toure with the kind of form he's on @ d Moment.. A Midfielder who sprays Long range passes with both Feet, Throws in Tackles, Drives through opposition defense, Splits defense with passes, Takes shots from anywhere.. I Like Mikel's Defensive duties buh I Don't like any Dude that Makes use of Sideways Passes and Backwards Passes..

Mikel's a PET.. Toure's a BEAST..

And for those fools using goals scored ! Must a player score goals in order to be World Footballer ? Haven't you seen GoalKeeper and Defender winning the trophy before ?

SpencerLewis: What did he achieve last yr with Man city or Cote d'voire to warrant him winning? and he won d last 2 editions. dis is d way de robbed Okocha till he retired.
remember, during Okocha's regime Eto'o was on fire. Then Okocha was playing 4 Bolton wanderers, while Eto'o was playing 4 Barcelona. Okocha wuld've won it if he was playing 4 a top european club. Okocha was just not a lucky guy.

Good! Worthy winner and well-deserved.

It would have been an absolute shame if Mikel won it.

The only downside now is the "record" praise-singers. Now in a few years time, you will get some silly idiot saying that because Yaya has won APoY 3 times, he is one of the 3 greatest players ever and better than George Weah, Drogba and Roger Milla.

The idiot would not think about conditions. In the last 3 years, African players have not been great. Only Yaya stands out.

xp17: when would nigerians start putting sentiments aside and face and acept defeat in the spirirt of sportmanship? yes john obi mikel played , just like christana ronaldo, but they both got a stronger man right in front to stop them. well, not everybody is lucky enough. Though John Obi Mikel played better than Ayo kanute and Emanue adebayo when the duo won this dreaded award , but there wasn't a strong contender at the time. This remind me of when Samuel Eto was on top of the game , we all wanted Jay Jay Okacha to emerge the winner , but deep inside of us we all knew that Samuel Eto performance was exceptional that year and better than that of Jay Jay.
