[BoroFur]

George Weah

 

[El Guapo]

Son

 

[McBrid]

Heung-Min Son is my favourite I know that

Lee Dong-gook

Well I was thinking of Son when I posted; but then it dawned on me there must be some Africans who’d challenge. Weah’s a good shout.

Drogba? Viduka? Salah? Alexei Lalas?

We’re not counting Frenchmen who were born in Africa like Vieira and Zidane.

 

[El Guapo]

Forgot about Drogba but thought of Vids after I’d posted.

i would take Son over all of them in my team. Think he is outstanding. Yaya Toure in his prime is worth a shout aswell.

 

[Subbuteo_171]

Zidane was born in Marseilles wasn’t he?

 

[atypical_boro]

Zidane was born in Marseilles wasn’t he?

Yes. For some reason I thought he was born in Algeria.

 

[El Guapo]

Algerian descent i think

gullit wasn’t born in Europe....does he count?

 

[Subbuteo_171]

Eusebio?

Good call - but I'd say Yaya was better overall, he had everything, a complete all rounder

I can’t argue as Yaya has been successful aswell. Winning titles. Son is my favourite though.

 

[coluka]

Mark Schwarzer. Non of those named above could get anywhere near his ability in goal

 

[nowthen]

John Barnes was under rated. Scored some tremendous goals.

 

[Michael_Vronsky]

Paul Okon

He wasn't under rated at all, have a look at how many caps he won, and think how many times he disappointed at international level after tearing up the league.

Mane is up there surely.

Mane is up there surely.

Without a doubt
