CAF is a criminal organisation not a football governing body. What is the use of African cup if the cretaria is always based on European performance. What is the value of the award?

CAF is a mafia group. id it is based on europe performance why did they snub sammy kuffour for 2001 and gave it diuof? it is for french speaking countries. South African have ignored it long time. it has no value. it is a shame. why always Africa. i looked at Hayatou during his speech at the awards and i saw crooked man with dirty mind. Blatter is gone, he is next to be shamed.

I will agree with you. Africa Player of the year is not based alone on Afcon.

I will select E'too over Gyan hundred times. Apart from weak leagues of UAE and China, has Gyan scored more than 15 goals a season in Italy, France or England?

Based on Gyan's analysis, then Yaya Toure should have won not Dede since he Toure led Ivory Coast to win AFCON.

Nobody can argue that Aubemeyang does not deserve to win the Africa Player. Take Dede out of Ghana team and put Aubemeyang in there and we would have won the Africa cup.

Gyan is crying crocodile tears. He doesn't really want Dede to win this to take the shine away from him.

So.caf should give the caf player award to a player after only 5games? Ebei!!. Gyan didn't win afcon in 2010 bcos of his club. Use lg is very very weak, and caf didn't want to cheapen, undermine themselves and dats why they chose story. Who clearly didn't do well at afcon and caf. U can't play 5afcon games and expect to win caf player of the year. Africa lacks quality materials, players etc. So if u want to win caf award. Play in a quality euro lg and concentrate on scoring goals or playing time consistency, plus trophies. Then add afcon and wcup appearance as extras and u will win afcon award.

Gyan is making sense here.How come a player who did little in Caf organized competition Afcon, won this award ahead of a player who excelled in this competition and was top scorer?

Come man are you having a laugh. So Asamoah Gyan as captain of our national team does not know that the award is not based only on AFCON? If that is the case why Yahya Toure won in 2012,2013 when he did not win AFCON with Côte d'Ivoire. If Gyan's reasoning is anything to go by then Kosongo and Enyimba should have won in 2012 and 2013 respectively. That is why I found Toure's reaction at the awards as so stupid, arrogant and damn right foolishness.

Learn how to respect others'views, particularly the majority's. Abedi Pele Ayew won the sam CAF award 3 times and Ghana never questioned how and why Abedi won it that many times. In my view, Abedi won them because he excelled beyond doubt, hence won the majority decision or opinion. Dede has failed to win it because he hasn't excelled above the other two. May be, next year, he might win it, if he improves. And it is not a question of being a midfielder or striker. I have seen such awards go to Goalkeepers and defenders in the past.
If it national success that should determine who wins it, then the award should have gone to Yaya Toure, bccause he won the Afcon with Ivory Coast and his club is at the top 4 in the EPL. Andre Ayew and Ghana were runners up at the Afcon and Swansea is lying at the bottom 4 in the EPL. Yaya should rathere be more disappointed than Ayew.

Ghanaians should be happy for winner and hope that next time it will be a Ghanaian to win it.

The CAtop award is for goal scorers and at times midfielders are given the consideration. How many defenders and goalkeepers have won the award? Gabon paid to host the CAF torment next year. It's has just pay for the Africa best player of the year and it's going to buy the Africa Cup next year too. It's Africa we'really talking about. This guy is nowhere near Toure, Ayew and Gyan but yet has been crowned Africa Best Player of the year. Corruption, bribes and kickbacks determine everything in Africa.

So its only now Ghanaians are awake. African best player is not for AFCON results. Its for performances in Europe. African continental football started with Egypt, Ethiopian and Sudan. Then Ghana joined & african footbal confederation (AFC) was formedn, and by the way, since we declared one of the founders of AFC (Ohene Djan) no more represe.ted us just bcoz he was associated with Nkrumah, the francophones took over. We have to endure for our priorities have always been party based and not on realities, that's why we claim to be good christians for nothing.
