Who would you pick as Africa's best Defensive Midfielder of all time?
Only two things in life are certain - death and taxes. But there is one other unpleasant certainty: criticism. No one escapes it entirely and often our careers, our emotional stability, even our happiness depends on how we react to it."By Benjamin Franklin"

Which Kana Biyik? Andre, Francois Omam Biyik's brother? That guy was a thug, simple. He was a rugged defender, like Benjamin Massing. Didn't have the finesse of Kunde or Tataw.

Yujam, stop pandering to Nigerians because you are taking refuge in a Nigerian forum. John Mikel Obi is a below average DM. I can name 10 better DM in Africa better than him in the last 10 years alone! :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

People like spilling rubbish. Name the 10 dms in Africa that we're better than mikel obi. This is a player that won champions league, premier league, fa cup, community shield, uefa cup and African cup of nations. Facts: he played 80% of those matches to win 80% of the tournament
