I laugh when I see people saying that yaya toure should be african footballer of the year ahead of mikel or even enyeama who was controversially not nominated.. They say that because mikel doesnt score goals that yaya should win it,saying that he scored only 4 goals in 300 matches for chelsea.. Thats even the funniest part when I read it.. I want to ask them this.. In 2006 when fabio cannavaro won the world best,how many goals did he score?? How many did he even score in his entire career??? I even laugh loud when they judge it by saying that yaya is a better footballer so he should win it.. I ask again.. Why didnt Zidane and henry who were much more better players than cannavaro win the world best in 2006 ahead of cannavaro?? If yaya should win it this year then etoo should be stripped of 2004 african best because they told us that the sole reason jay jay okocha didnt win it that year was because he didnt win any trophy notwithstandingthat jay jay was afcon mvp that year,was co highest goal scorer,scored afcon 1000th goal that tournament yet they gave it to etoo just because he won the uefa cup,scored in the final and was playing in european competition with real malorca before he went to barca that year... This year presents us with another etoo/okocha like 2004 scenerio.. Mikel won afcon,won the europa,knocked out yaya on his way to the trophy,taught yaya how to play the tiki taka that day,bossed the midfield,he also won the europa just like how etoo won it in 2004 but yaya won nothing with man city last year,he lost the fa cup final against a relegated wigan team,came to afcon and was the flop of the tournament and went trophyless just like jay jay in 2004... If eto should win it that year then mikel should win it this year because caf made us understand that eto won it based on the trophies he won that year unlike jay jay... The inclusion of drogba ahead of vincent enyeama who was afcon best keeper 2013,european best keeper 2013 and was outstanding by going 11 matches without conceding a goal in french league which is the 2nd highest in french league history,it just shows that issa hayatou SCAMMED this award just to favour his french contingent players.. Drogba was rubbish last year for galatasayray but enyeama stood tall whole last year.. Even the inclusion of alex song ahead of mikel last year just makes a mockery of the award.. Lets forget sentiments,forget whos the better player and judge this award purely on merit.. MIKEL NCHEKWUBE OBI deserve this award 100% ahead of anybody in africa bar Vincent enyeama.. I rest my case
