This is the order:
Jose Bosingwa
Dani Alves
D. Maicon
S. Ramos
Glen Johnson

It is very obvious that D. Drogba is better than N. Anelka. Anelka is only better in terms of ball control.

Does it mean Ndigbo do not follow football. There have been usel contribution on the Yoruba, s/minorities and north version of this thread.
Igbo ndi oma, kwuo ebum na uche unu.

It is so lovely seeing Drogba and Anelka set up for each other.

Clapping and dancing is a mosaic tradition borrowed by christians. King David always clapped and danced to the Lord.
Jesus did not also say go to church on Saturdays. Worshipping on Sundays makes christianity distinct from Mosaic faith.

More Than These:
Coach Musa Abudulahi
Haruna Babagida
Babayaros
I hope you are Uwe of Leventis United, Great Defeder, So you are still living

Celestine Babayaro and Emmanuel Babayaro are not northerners. They are Ndigbo from Nkwerre in Imo state. Celestine Iwuoha-Babayaro featured in my Igbo version of this thread.
The poster is ANDRE UWEH NOT not the famous flying eagles captain of 1985. Uweh or Uweh is a common Igbo surname. Haruna Babangida is no match to his eldest brother Tijani Babangida. I think Coach M. Abdullahi is at per with L. Bosso.

It seems you are obsessional about christianity. You hardly attack the other great religion in Nigeria. Are you afraid of their bombs?.

sunday worship separates christianity from judaism. secondly, christ resurrected on a sunday.

HIS FOOTBALL CAREER STARTED AND ENDED IN ALGERIA. APART FROM JUVENTUS, THERE WERE SOME OTHER EUROPEAN CLUBSIDES THAT REQUIRED HIS SERVICES BUT HIS ANSWER WAS NO.
L.BELLOUMI, WITHOUT DISPUTE, IS ONE OF AFRICA'S GREATEST.

Mathematician Segun Odegbami is in the list I compilled. The best no.7 off all time. I an lucky to have met him in West London last May. His junior brothe Joseph Wole Odegbami did well also.

What a great player he was then. Belloumi refused to go professional when a team like Juventus came calling. Indeed, he is one of Africa's greatest.

TESLIM BALOGUN WAS PRIOR 1980 THOUGH GREAT.
OKENLA GREAT BUT FELIX OWOLABI IS GREATER.
AYO OGUNLANA: MORE OF LEVENTIS UNITED THAN NATIONAL TEAM HERO.
BEST OGEDENGBE: HE BELONGS TO THE SAME LEAGUE AS RUFAI AND DOSU, BUT HE IS ACTUALLY NOT YORUBA. FROM ONE OF THE MINORITY GROUPS IN DELTA STATE.

ASHA 80
THAT'S A BEAUTIFUL COMPILATION. TARILA OKORONWANTA AND ANDREW UWEH ARE CLASSIFIED AS IGBO AS THEY COME FROM ANIOMA. THE POSTER IS ANDRE UWEH FROM ISINWEKE, ETITI, IMO STATE. IN THE IGBO COMPILATION, ANDREW UWEH DID NOT COMPETE WELL WITH THE LIKES OF KESHI, CHUKWU AND OKECHUKWU UCHE WHO PLAY IN THE SAME POSITION AS HIM.
OKORONWANTA MADE HIS MARK AT THE CLUBSIDE LEVEL NOT AT THE NATIONAL TEAM FOR EXAMPLE BENDEL INSURANCE.
FINIDI, WHAT A GREAT WINGER, I THINK HE SHOULD COME AHEAD OF CLEMENT TEMILE.
ELAHO: EQUALLY GREAT BUT ADOKIYE WAS GREATER.
THE REST, NO COMPETITION FROM MY COMPILATION.
ABOVE ALL, THANKS FOR REMINDING ME OF FINIDI.

some other african greats not listed in this thread so far are: abubakar titi camara, yousuf fofana, krimou, timoni, el batal, kalusha bwalya, bruce groebellar, kabongo ngoy, theophil abega, doctor kumalo, henry nwosu and opoku nti.

thanks asha 80. dahiru sadi was great. he played in the same position where amokachie played for the eagles. just behind the top stryker. so in my assemblage, i compared him to the bull and eventually the bull was chosen. but thanks for your contribution. how about the igbo,yoruba and s/minority threads i posted earlier?.

eusebio in football circles is portuguese and european.

mystikal:
while i do not see the point of this thread, you omitted Rashidi yekini. _{on 2nd thot, was he from d North?}

Rashidi Yekini is from the West. He grew up in the North and started his career from the North.
