ONE AFRICA !!! (which African team will emerge from the prelims? by bingbagbo(m): 1:46pm On Dec 01, 2013 |
[b]YES, Hypothetical...but what if Africa presented a single All-African team like the USA. I believe Africa would easily win the upcoming world cup in Brasil, of course Africa virtually won France 98 with France (Zidane, dessaily, Vierra, Henry.....etc)..But if Africa decided to present one team, i feel the headache would lie in player selection due to the plethora of exceptional soccer talents across the lenghts and breath of the continent. Here would be my take (my candid opinion) Goalkeepers: Charles Itandje(Cameroun), Vincent Enyeama(Nigeria) Fatau Dauda(Ghana) Defenders:Emmanuel eboue(Ivory coast),Benoit Assou-Ekotto(Cameroun) Kwadwo Asamoah(Ghana) Stopilla sunzu(Zambia) Madjid Bougherra(Algeria), Kolo toure(ivory coast) Didier Zokora(Ivory coast) Michael Essien(Ghana) Midfielders: Alex Song(cameroun), Yaya Toure(Ivory coast),John Mikel(Nigeria) , Kevin Prince Boateng(Ghana) Andre Ayew(Ghana) Sulley Muntari(Ghana), Pierre Emerick Aubameyang(Gabon), Victor Moses(Nigeria) Attackers: Jonathan Pitroipa(Burkina Faso), Asamoah Gyan(Ghana), Samuel Eto'o(Cameroun) , Mohammed Salah (EGYPT) TECHNICAL TEAM: KWESI APPIAH(GHANA), STEPHEN KESHI(NIGERIA) HASSAN SHEHATTA(EGYPT) Oya, what's your take??

Theben: Here is my 23 man team list your team has 6 defenders but 7 strikers? really?.. ogenyi onazi? Haruna lukman who is not even invited by Nigeria? cheik tiote really? same-old drogba u mean? austin ejide? basically your team is one drafted out of subjectivity and i can pardon you but it lacks balance and isnt a true reflectiion of Africa's current bests 1 Like |
Re: ONE AFRICA !!! (which African team will emerge from the prelims? by Theben(m): 2:46pm On Dec 01, 2013 |
bin gbagbo:Ogenyi Onazi is our most reliable Midfielder. He has been very consistent for both Lazio and the Super Eagles. He should not only be in the 23 man list, he definitely would be a starter. My inclusion of Lukman is due to the absence of credible options. His exclusion from the super eagles isn't for footballing reason. His ego is the reason for this. Needless to say he's more talented than Ghanaian aged midfielders. My decision to pick 6 defenders is because some of my midfielders can effortlessly play the role of defenders and excel. Players like Zokora and Tiote are example of defenders/midfielders on my list. As old as Drogba is, he's still among the top 3 African best strikers. Why do you think mourinho wanted him back when he took over at chelsea? I was even expecting you to dispute the inclusion of andre ayew in the midfield as he's the weakest among them all. |

Theben: i will talk about ogenyi onazi later....but Lukman haruna, hey......i can list 20 fringe Ghanaian players that are better than this dude(objectively)...ok see, agyeman badu, christian atsu, anthony annan, derek boateng, quincy abeyie, emmanuel frimpong, solomon asante, albert adomah, prince buabeng, frank acheampong, etc etc but i didnt include all these because i was being objective. but talking of playing tiote in defence, which part of defencelol 1 Like |

@ op u just spoke my mind, but ur first xi player get K-leg oo, u put pitriopia,is dat nt d burkinable man wey no qualify or am mistaken, but u left out Africa 2013 goal poacher Emmanuel emenike. Am sure none of those defender is as sharp as omeruo dat stop drogba frm scoring several tyms in afcon. Immediately after afcon 2013, caf releases dere first xi player, 5 super eagle player made d list, emmanuel emenike, efe ambrose, vincent enyeama, john obi mikel, victor moses. I was expecting @ least 3 of dem in ur first 11. Even enyeama currently enjoying 13 clean sheet in 15 appearance and @ d verge of making history 4 lille is nt ur 1st chioce golie. 1 Like |

I'm in a hurry now, so would come back to list my best 23! But any African 11 that does not include Enyeama, Mikel and Emenike, with Keshi being the Coach is incomplete. #Gbam |

CFCfan: __________Enyeama___________ where does omeruo play currently and how experienced is he? remember the world is a congregation of the bests in the world(ronaldo, ribery, messi, robben, rooney etc) can omeruo stand his own against these big names? i have my doubts i dont know if its john mensah or jonathan mensah you mean. i am sorry for both of them since their current form wouldnt make them good enough for an all African 11. the problem Kwadwo asamoah may have is the fact that, juve play a 3 man defence and anytime Asamoah is played as a left-back in a 4-man defence, he struggles mikel and onazi have no business in an all African holding with the likes of Alex song, sule muntari, nathan sinkala, didier zokora, and the likes emenike and moses are not bad, but they are inexperienced as compared to Asamoah Gyan, eto'o and mohammed salah 1 Like |

Re: ONE AFRICA !!! (which African team will emerge from the prelims? by Theben(m): 3:38pm On Dec 01, 2013 |
Starting 11 Enyeama Kwedwo Asemoah -- Oboabona -- Kolo Toure -- Emmanuel Eboue Ogenyi Onazi -- Mikel -- Yaya Toure Moses -- Emenike -- Aubumayang |
Re: ONE AFRICA !!! (which African team will emerge from the prelims? by Nobody: 3:47pm On Dec 01, 2013 |
CFCfan: __________Enyeama___________ Nice one but Oboabona should replace omeruo or mensa..Micheal Essien for Mikel and Asamoah Gyan for Aubemeyang. |
Re: ONE AFRICA !!! (which African team will emerge from the prelims? by safarigirl(f): 4:25pm On Dec 01, 2013 |
Theben:gbam! That OP list get K-leg and polio join. Omeruo should make the first XI as a defender. That guy would pull a 'Suarez' for his team if he had to. I'm not conversant with African football as a whole so I don't know the positions certain non-Nigerians play i.e more Nigerians will be on my list. if I had to make a list: GK- Enyeama, Samuel Itandje, Barry Boubacar, . Defenders- Bance, Echiejile, Kolo Toure, Jordan Ayew, Omeruo, Efe Ambrose. Mid-fielders- Yaya Toure, K.P Boateng, John Obi Mikel, Victor Moses, Essien, Ogenyi Onazi, Aboutrika. Strikers- Emenike, Demba Ba, Gyan, Drogba, Pitroipa, Cisse, Eto'o |

this thread should be in jokes section. An african team where enyeama isn't the first choice goalie. emenike isn't in that squad, lyk seriously? bin, we both know the only ghanaian deserving of a spot there is kp boateng. so because there was no space for essien in midfield you had to bring him in as a defender. we all know how that worked out in real madrid. bin pls revisit that list asap, it isn't worthy of repin africa |

@OP What is boateng doing in ur XI ?.Victor moses should replace boateng.He is arguably d best natural winger we have in africa now. |
Re: ONE AFRICA !!! (which African team will emerge from the prelims? by naijanoni(m): 10:35pm On Dec 01, 2013 |
Micheal essien is already a finished player.He shouldnt be in any starting XI.If it was 4yrs ago,he should be d 1st name on dat list,but not now dat he is a reserve player at chelsea. And how is salah more experienced than emenike or moses ??. |
