Whats kanu doing on d list?

Can you tell me why he shouldn't be there?

No one deserves the award more than Essien, but he did not show up at the cup of nations - obviously due to "injury".

In that case i'll give it to Drogba. He took his country to the world cup for the first time and was one of the top 3 highest goal scorers in the qualifiers (incl. Adebayor and Obagol). Drogba fought hard against cameroun in the qualifiers though lost 3-2 in that match. Drogba took the Ivoriens to the final of the nations cup after over a decade of reaching that far.

with those two in bag, plus to me he played well last season. 12 premiership goals and 11 premiership assists is enough pride for an African.

Eto'o's finished with 5 goals at the cup of nations but could not go so far in the tourney. He did not play at the world cup and made up for this by finishing as top goal scorer, champion's league trophy, la liga trophy among others and surely deserves it.

Essien has been instrumental to his country and club and took them to a splendid maiden world cup outing. but did not show up at the nations cup for reasons best known to mourinho.

Kanu is fond of turning the game around for nigeria. with 6 goals and 3 assists for west brom last season after 19 starts, and miraculous adventures for Nigeria, especially in hopeless times, I think Kanu deserves a nomination.


but all in all, I guess it's time Drogba got this stuff and let's stop robbing Peter to Pay Paul. Okocha struggled to get this stuff but was denied, Eto'o has just won the FiFpro African footballer of the year and he truly deserves it, but let's face it this time around, if this is all the extra fire Drogba needs, let's give it to him.

Need i say more? Well said dude

Nice analysis there Christino.

Gracias

Did anyone listen to Kanu's interview with Brila FM?

Is it in line with what is written here? Kanu wants more cash

Drogba has been fantastic bt den i did say Kanu.I will say dt cos hes nt playing with world class players and is still making it.

Kanu and Aboutrika have been dropped from the list.

Yea, I know they were dropped some weeks back. I just wanna update this thread. The award ceremony is scheduled to take place in March and Zizou (not Akide) will do the honour of presenting the awards.
