shocked



Everything about Papa Bouba Diop was a competition...his drive and competitive spirit was unrivalled. If Patrick Vieira could do it...he too could.
He put his mind to the game and chased balls (in the pitch and on the bed) like no man's business.

It's sad he took the competitive spirit to the grave because a part of me thinks he wanted to check if his death will trend more than Maradona's death

But I think he chose to die at the wrong time because the world is still busy mourning Maradona...they'd be little or no sympathy for him.

welcome back legend

DIOP is one of best midfilders in African history.

His goal against France in Korea/Japan 2002 still fresh in the memories of many Africans who witnessed the day an African team beat the world champion.

My first world game. I remember. Rest In Peace
Re: Papa Bouba Diop Dies Aged 42 by Blakpot: 8:57pm On Nov 29, 2020
Not another sad news ffs!
My earliest memories of EPL involved him
and guys like Benjani, Lua Lua, the late Tiote...
Was proud to see successful Africans in top flight football.

RIP my man.
Thanks for the goal against France.

Too bad you stayed and died in the closet but I don't blame you because everyone hates a homo.

Skin-to-skin is the best but HIV is real.
Bia, nwoke, you have no fear of God. If you did you would be cautious in the kinds of statements you make because judgment does not know if you transgressed on the internet or offline. You keep writing things that are borderline abominable and think it's all fun and games.

Well, it's all that until judgement comes knocking

We had Nigerians like Chiedozie and Afro- Caribbean players like Barnes, Blisset etc.. in the 80's. But the 90's brought Africans from all regions into the EPL - Ndlovu (Zimbabwe), Yeboah (Ghana) - then the monsoon arrived in the noughties - The Senegalese who before repped in Ligue 1 came to collect Sterling and we saw how strong and fearless that Senegalese team was - same with our Cameroonian. South African brothers

Adieu Chefe. From Dakar to Ziguinchor, you will be grieved. This week weak us all pass for football.

Say hi to Marc Vivien Foe, Maradona , Eusebio and Cryuff when you get there. We will all join you at some point, just not too soon, abeg.

He died of Charcot-Marie-Tooth, the disease is an inherited, genetic condition. It occurs when there are mutations in the genes that affect the nerves in your feet, legs, hands and arms.

Sometimes, these mutations damage the nerves. Other mutations damage the protective coating that surrounds the nerve (myelin sheath). Both cause weaker messages to travel between your extremities and brain.

That means some of the muscles in your feet may not receive your brain's signal to contract, so you're more likely to trip and fall. And your brain may not receive pain messages from your feet, so if you've rubbed a blister on your toe, for example, it may get infected without your realizing it.

Metsu had a terminal illness (colon cancer, that had already spread to his liver and lungs, when he was diagnosed) and died in 2013. He is French but was buried in Dakar.

A wonderful and enigmatic Coach that will never be forgotten in Senegalese history.

I love the man.
