Greatest Player from the African continent

Desailly won the lot.

he did. He is also French

I think Adebayor was on for a great season until that terrible incident in Angola.

Yeah considering much of his craziness came after that horrible incident, it would be interesting to see what a career he would have had if it never happened.
Had absolutely everything as a striker, except he was lazy and a bit mental

Despite all the shenanigins with his agent , Toure is the best player to come out of Africa , Yaya in his pomp was unplayable he was a genuine big game match winner , nothing fazed him , the man was pure class on the field.

It staggers me how underrated yaya is with some of our fans. Hes the most influential player the club has ever had. When yaya played well we won. When we needed a goal in the big games yaya scored. Vinny nailed it in his speech at yaya last game....United semi final, stoke final, newcastle, palace, sunderland, liverpool...........

And that's before you consider how he played centre back and marked Ronaldo out of the game in a champs league final for barca.

Drogba. A beast, a chelsea icon, top 5 premier league striker (behind serge)

Eto. World class in his peak.

Neither achieved what yaya did. Or were close as overall.footballers

Brilliant Post.

Weah was a monster back then but it is hard to compare players from different decades.

Etoo was fantastic but Yaya Toure was such a complete player.
