[erictheboywithheart]

@carapiap wow you serious boateng do. i mean im a ac milan fan but the nigga just became african a year ago

[carapiap]

@erictheboywithheart wtf are you talking about, hes always been african, he just decided to stop playing for germany but hes always been african, kinda like me, i was born in the US but with mexican parents, so if i play for the US national team that does mean that im no longer mexican, btw george weah? was this supposed to be the all time list? in that case, ill put Etoo in 1st without a doubt

[erictheboywithheart]

@carapiap bro im not denying the fact that hes not african. The face is hes German , he was born there his parents are african. Despite that fact i know hes still african. But hes never been on the team until last world cup. and make your vedio more specific next time, say recent african players.

[carapiap]

@erictheboywithheart Who gives a shit how long he's played in the Ghana national team, he's still African. The video doesn't say "The Top Best African Raised Football Players." Take, for example, Zidane; he wasn't born and raised in France. He grew up in Algeria. So are going to tell me that he isn't worthy of being considered one the best, if not the best French soccer player ever.

[MrFlyHigh10]

best local african player is Ousama Darragi.... undoutably

[INFINITY1664]

this list is nothin but bullshit. u gonna make Marcal Essen number one over Eto who is number three on ur bullshit list man consider reversing this list. and don't forget about Kanu and JJ Okocha from Nigeria, George Weah from Liberia who should appear number one on this list. and many other top African players. this look to me like somewhat current

[tonyenyemeck]

[wwebogota]

[TheShinggy]

[AmirDesing]

[zuulow]

ajey ajey nr1

[yeoqiangkai1]

Amr Zaki??

[chezanami]

woah now, what happened to Roger Milla? or even Okocha?

[XanROK0211]

Dude, Egypt's the best team in Africa. Other countries may have good players but the individual performance of a soccer/football player does not matter. Its the team work that matters. Every soccer/football player knows that so you can't sort out who's the best. And you forgot a ton of good players. Abo Treka especially, but it doesn't matter because to my understanding the best teams use their ability to communicate and work together in order to become great.

[mrmarvinasoro1]

good opinion

[AfricaVisionTV]

ETO;O 1

DROGBA 2

ESSIEN 3

[Mitsui00]

[EgyptianMexicanWhat]

Ahmed Hassan? Abutrika? Gedo? Zaki? Moteab? Elhadary? Goma? hany said? hosny abdrobu? moawed? fathi? my friend this list is so bad

[EgyptianMexicanWhat]

[eminem2100]

[pike00910]

Bro lol how do u figure essien first lol u should watch african cup more often wheres gedo wheres abou traika wheres zaki where manucho where are all these guys man and zidan 9th i dnt think so man

[Cypha1]

@pike00910 MANUCHO?...hahahhahahah.you must be kidding

[adamcenahhh52]

i agree

[kazekage123gaara]

Essien mustn't be the first, Zidan must be 5th ou 6th, Ziani must be included and where's Zaki, Kalou and Aboutraika?

[civilisationskerl]

hahahh kanu is so bad loser...

okacha is older than T-rex...

Karim Ziani and madjid Bougherra must e there!

[PeculiarArsenal]

Ummm.. Zinedine Zidane

[stansty]

Where is Okocha?????????

Where is Kanu???????

and essien should take 5th place!

[MilanBaros67]

I think in this list must also Abdul Kader Keita.One of the best players of Ivory Cost.

He's playing know by Galatasaray Istanbul.

He is very good :D

[tontonflingueur]

Where is Zinedine Zidane?

[JbAppiah101]

Yes essien number one..this guy knows

[velezjimenez10]

and what about seydou keita, yaya toure and steven pienaar

[tuesdayjoe]

Of the Chelsea boys...Drogba and Essien..yes but, Mikel? Not sure about that.

[F4amousR0cK5tAr]

lol zidan is not even playin in the starting eleven in dortmund. he doesnt belong into that list

[otukoyaa]

10. Mikel

9. Martins

8. Odemwingie

7. S. Keita

6. Abou Treika

5. Adebayor

4. Drogba

3. Y. Touré

2. Essien

1. Eto'o

[MrShelmerdine]

i think Delboys a bit of a Chelsea fan

[tuesdayjoe]

you could be right...so am i

[egyptiandude93]

lol and where is abo treka????

delbo abo treka is in the top 5 and you didnt even put him in this vid..

[eminem2100]

wait the new best guy of world hes egyption ahly player hes ahmed shokry hes have old 19 years wait him hes the best now

[djimhotep]

1 - Eto'o

2- Abou Treika

3- Drogba

4- Essien

5- Diarra/Keita

[gwalid2]

eto then abo treika ok!!

[djimhotep]

1-Essien and 2-Drogba have yet to win ANYTHING with their national teams. NO African cup, no olympic medal, NOTHING!

I know a guy who won 2 ANC and 1 olympic Gold. He's also the top scorer EVER of the ANC.

You may want to rename your list best african players in eupope.

Oh wait, they are both combined for ZERO CL...

I know a guy who won 2 and scored in both finals, a world record!

[ahmed4013044]

is he abu treika ?? :)

[opeezy97]

if its of all time den diss is gassed

[akrambaroudi]

what i think is essien cannot be number one. i'd say definitely eto'o, more than drogba, because of the trophies eto'o's got with barcelona and cameroon. then drogba number two.

also, egyptian abotreka should be in the list because of the two cup of nations he got with egypt, as well as the champions leagues he got with al ahly.

players like yakubu should not be even in the list because they have ZERO accomplishments with pro-team and national team.

[ownowbrowncowable]

To claim he was better than Eto'o is ridiculous. - Led Cameroon to 2000 Olympics Gold - Captain of Current Cameroonian Team - Won Two Africa Cup of Nations Tourneys - All time leading scorer in the history of the African Cup of Nations with 16 goals. The closest active player has 8. - Most goals in history of Cameroon National Team - 2 Spanish Copa Del Rey Titles - 2 Spanish Supercups - 3 La Liga Titles - 2 Champs League Titles - 3 Afr. Player of Year - 2 UEFA Team of Year - 1 UEFA Top FWD

[Pierro28]

Not to forget

- La liga Pichichi '06

- '3rd FIFA Player of the year.

- Runner up Confederations Cup '01

- Runner Up CAN '08

- 2nd Highest goal scorer La Liga '05, 09

All these for one player - and he is still playing which means more will come!

[lassana10]

duuuuuuuuuude where is MOMO SISSOKO?!!!

[gwalid2]

dude first abu terka and drgoba are the same eto is the 2

[Pierro28]

Guaranteed this list was put together by a Ghanian!

[kakompo]

SO if Drogba had been number 1 you will say "guaranteed the list was put together by an Ivorian" and you will say the same for Cameroon if it had been Etoo.

[Pierro28]

I live with Ghanians in Canada and all of them share the same sentiment. They love Chelsea because Essien plays a pivotal role - The consider him to be the best player on the team (this can be open to debate). Ivorians and other french speaking Africans say Drogba is better than Essien. With this on mind it is easy to see that the top two players are from the favoured team and the better player chosen based on who made the video; That is how i came to the conclusion. Based on Medals Eto'o rules!

[Mbah33]

Eto'o is number 1 and will be until some one comes up to play better than him...lol!!!

[Jeet27]

3. Essien 2. Eto'o 1. Drogba

[cherife95]

abou traika is the best win 2 cup africa with egypte. win with ahly 3 champion league africa. win 4 league egypte.win 2 cup of egypte.

[bobbylashley999]

essien is very dominant.....every pass he makes gets on target and he neva shoots but when he does OHHHH MAMA!!!!!!!

[bhendersOn91]

hahaha this is so bad. eto'o is the best player in african HISTORY, let alone currently. Drogba can be tossed in a second, but not a close second. This list is a Joke

[yahoo1o1]

no george weah(sp) has to be #1 or #2. if u disagree then u dont know football well enough to be talking about history

[lochbosomko]

@bhendersOn91 best has to be essien no dought no matter where or for whom he plays for club or nation he is prolific, he has a great attitude, does the dirty work and makes it look clean . Drogba-not as prolific for nation though terrific for club but thats only b'cos African defence is no push over

Eto'o - dont get me wrong is very good and has the best record as a striker but cmon who wont look good when u play alongside messi and ronaldinho with Xavi, Iniesta and alves supportng you in attack

[MrNme1996]

thats not an official list of top ten best african players, you are a sick man if that is true!!!

[TheCleopatra46]

where is abu trika he is really the best in africa

[tigerstylexx]

Moroccan Marouane Chamakh one of the best strikers in France instead of Zidan. and Malian seidou Keita.

[AbdelJaffar]

who ever made this video clearly isnt african

[CujoTutina500ftw]

Drogba the best

[Juuk10290]

1 eto but essien is the most dominant footballer in africa in terms of determination and hes one of the worlds best

[bobbylashley999]

so true

[groovedanie]

eto'o is the number 1 no doubt of it because of his palmares without barca and his palmares with barca.And the last think is that when eto has been in injury to time it was too bad saesons for barca

so think twice...

who is the number one...

[pauldbest09]

I think Eto'o is number one, he has been through alot, being outrightly racially abused twice while playing. (Not saying other players don't get abused too) he played through it and has kept a high level of play throughout his career He played a significant role in Barca's treble.

[niltash]

drogba is the best. common essien i good but drogba is better.

[gwalid2]

whata fuck mohamed zidane is not number 9 lol he is like 3

[pdad0wnz1]

no he is so overrated everyone thinks hes so good because he had 2 goals against brazil both of which assisted perfectly by abotrika. Zidan sleeps in the games and is a very inconsistant player. O and he recently got kicked off of the egyption national team.

[abadour1]

dude can't forget the goals he score against cameroon and Ivory Coast especially his assist which was huge against Cameroon in the finals of the African cup which cost Cameroon the game and the cup

[pdad0wnz1]

thats true but hes not like that every game. 1 game good, the next game bad, he has very good talent, but hes very inconi=sistant and thats why he doesnt play for really big clubs, he hast the potential but the one thing is his consistantsey

[egytta1]

abou treka,,,,,1

[barca159357]

El-Hadary

Song - Touré - Trabelsi - Kuffour

Aboutrika - Essien - Okocha

Adebayor - Didier Drogba - Etoo

[amoremiotornadame]

el hadary ?? is better song'o or n'kono

trabelsi ?? ahahahah

better babayaro...

you don't have weah.... the best player ..and abedi pelè....

hala madrid shit barca

[skillzct93]

pdad0wnz1 you fucking retard... he didnt meen zinedine zidane but he ment mohamed zidan.... idiot

[Schiavone91]

best 10

adebayor etoo drogba essien m.diarra

sissoko essien muntari kameni zidan

[ArmenianFootball]

i think its safe to say Roger Milla is obviously the greatest African player of all time

[pdad0wnz1]

this list is so messed up trika is in top 5 for sure, and the last 3 is essien, eto'o and then drogba

[sueme55]

Drogba sould be # 1. Why didn't you put their contry of origin next to their names? some who have no clue may want to know

[futbolboy19]

wheres zidane he was from algeria

[pdad0wnz1]

This is an active list and zidane is retired and Zidane isn't even considered algerion in the football/soccer world because he played for France

[ArmenianFootball]

yes but that doesn't mean he isn't african even if he does play for France. he is ethnically african along with henry and many other players who play in europe

[pdad0wnz1]

yes but they are all born in france and arn't African like they're parents. They come from Algerion decent but they arn't African and i doubt any of the players such as henry or zidane have citezenship in africa

[ArmenianFootball]

my brothers were born in USA and i was born in Armenia, does that make me Armenian just cuz i had Armenian citizenship and does that make my brothers not Armenian and 100 percent american? lol you have to think critically on this one. fact of the matter is it doesn't matter where you're born or where you have citizenship but the true fact is that WHAT your ETHNICITY IS! and from the looks of it non of the players on the french team are naturally french but only french citizenship wise

[pauldbest09]

definitely right.

[pdad0wnz1]

wheres aboutrika hes in the top 5 for sure

[elongaterre]

eto'o is king

[NaniCronaldo17]

eto should be # 1 he is way better

[ahlwayyyyyyy]

seriously, where is abou trika ? he should be on the top 3

[abedoaf]

WTH dat list is soooooo wrong where is trika ,kalou, zaki, and and mauncho also wael gomma he was selected the best defender in africa in 2008 where the hell r they???!!!>............

[eaststoke]

kanu what about him he has won everything

[atas2101]

Where are Yaya touré,manucho,zaki,salomon kalou,sissoko (juventus),David Ngog,alexandre song, Mario balloteli.

Moreover,Martins is over and eto'o Should be more clother to the first.(We should respect his honours).

[llllespaullll]

by the way: sissoko and ngog are french not african. also balloteli is italian

[manhtaly]

sissoko is french for sure but also from mali in addition he played for the malian squad

[stelinho1295]

yes.. good list .. name at song ?:D:D:

[zacaldo619]

Eto'o IS better than all of em.

CAMEROON!!

[Speedymoh]

what about manucho??

[subzerofreez]

where is abutrika ?!!!!

[opendrol]

good list.

[chocobomtom]

where is taiwo and yaya toure?

[theonlyreega]

go shit zidan is the best

[ALTIDORE24EDREED20]

essien is da best drogba is second watch my TOP AFRICAN PLAYERS VID and u will see

[ALTIDORE24EDREED20]

hell no watch my vid and ul see ESSIEN AND GHANA RULE

my vid is da only vid response

[ALTIDORE24EDREED20]

i agree essien is da best GO BLACK STARS

[fapoo004]

yh wonder why tunisian player aint there and most ov them r nigerian anyway

[Delboy0]

I agree Egypt is probably best, or shall I say the most organised team in African, but come on they have no world class players. They do not have players in the class of Essien, Eto or Drogba. How many Egyptians play for the big clubs in England, Italy or Spain? None because no Egyptians good enough for those teams. Eto is in the form of his life, but Drogba at his best is still a more complete and influentual.

[chocobomtom]

they have some sub top like zaki and mido

[muslimsince92]

Does it matter which club they make it in...Pele played for Santos not European. ABUTRIKA should have been in the list and Zidan should have been number two.

[mojaveman]

Allthough Zidane was without a doubt the best player in world during the 1990ies, I agree fully with the list.

Essien, Drogba, Eto'o and Adebayor should get alot of points and respect for playing for THEIR national teams instead of the french.

By the way, do you mean Pele, the Brazilian?

[enggizo]

yes he meant pele the brazilian

he just doesnot like ur opinion like me

any way thx
