Ovie56:
I throw both of you A Kante, Keane and Viera card, yoir boy wasn't just good enough.

abdulskulboy:

In Peter drury's voice 'this is the type of miss that piss off a players entire career'

Johnjanrt:
EPL and history with Nigerian footballers. The most amazing of them all is the defensively minded Mikel Obi who just brags of only one goal in more than ten years. A feat that can be bettered by even goalkeepers.
All the same Papilo remains the king.

NarnieAceTech:


Even Obafemi "Obagoal" Martins was omitted from the list.
I think the ranking is based on trophies won and not individual performance, cos' I don't see any reason Mikel should be there. Someone who made about 60% or more start from the bench.
