Enugu of course I will give the older guys here their due respect but they must also respect the newer guys. Joseph yobo holds the record of being
1) SE most capped player
2) played at 3 World Cups
3) nations cup champion
4) played at a good epl team consistently for many years
and in addition to that, he was a dedicated, loyal, respectful player that wasn’t causing any fight or purposely missing any game for Nigeria and like I said, talent alone isn’t enough to rate a player

True...

Disagree on Taribo at #1. He was nowhere near Eboigbe...

Yobo was largely a CD for SE...
otherwise good list, although Ekeji should be a little higher

...are they players not ranked via statistics from their playing days or is it by mere popularity and self-like.

Even then, Chidi Nwanu cannot be ahead of Victor Oduah by any rational metrics... :oops:
