      @@joost6994 Etoo is the best African football player of all time. There should be no debate about this. No African player in the whole continent of africa, past or present can achieve what Samuel Etoo has achieved. The ballon d or is just a popularity contest. Etoo deserved that award in 2006 and even to 2010. The fact that luka modric can win it, tells me that. The ballon d Or is just a popularity contest, it is about favoritism, about who the higher ups like more. Even jose mourinho said he still does not understand why etoo never received that award. He even said etoo should have won that award, seeing all the great things he did on the football world, for country and clubs, with different world class clubs doing the impossible. Making the impossible possible. I understand that george weah has won the ballon d or and some other fifa awards. people need to understand that etoo and george weah played in different times. etoo played in a time when football had more world class players, he played in a tougher era. George Weah learned how to play football in Cameroon, he played for a Club in Yaounde. Mention Etoo 's name everywhere around the world, and even grandmothers and grandfathers and kids will know who he is, mention george weah name and people will ask you to explain who he is. Samuel Etoo has won so many important trophies and awards for his country in africa and on the world stage which is fifa, that no player in the continent of africa is yet to achieve. Samuel Etoo played Footbal in a much tougher era with more world class Elit players. George weah is not better than etoo. the ballon d or is just a popularity contest. Etoo should have won that award in 2005 to 2010, even world class coaches like moreno, and zidane and much more where comfused. they still to today do not understand why fifa did not give etoo the ballon d or in 2005 to 2010.

  • @niltash4ever
    @niltash4ever 3 года назад +3

    This debate will go on forever. Both players are very different and came up differently. Eto’o was brilliant, skillful, smart and one of the greatest goal scorers of his era. Drogba on the other hand was just a force of nature. It was just something about him that you really can’t quantify. He was a special player, feared across Europe yet adored every where he went. He had this invincibility about him that when at his best, there was a feeling the game wasn’t over yet regardless of the score. He had many intangibles.
    Arguing who was better or putting one over the other does such injustice to what either of them were about or brought to the game. They both achieved iconic status and feature on most all time best player lists. When players get to that level, it’s just a matter of personal preference. The finesse of Eto’o or the brute of Drogba!

    Tough comparison to achieve given they differ in every single way save being African strikers. Drogba was played far more like a target man and very often the lone Striker, Etoo was in contrast either a wide player or central player in attacking pairs or trios. Also, Etoo played in far superior teams and arguably easier leagues to score in as a striker (at least with regards to La Liga, less so Serie A). This is not to say I disagree as I'm not in the best position to judge having seen far more of Drogba, but a lot of this comparison gives Etoo an advantage.

Jose has never once compared the 2 players.

    I think Eto’o surpassed George Weah.

    Eto’o all the way. Drogba was an amazing player in his own right but Eto’o in my opinion is the best striker in the history of African football. He as the striker had the best touch I’ve ever seen.

    Eto. period. and i LOVE drogba!! eto was a goal machine. while drogba had some purple patches and he did walk around sometimes on the pitch.

    Eto’o was amazing and I think he’s absolutely underrated but no one is considering all the talented players around him. It’s easier to put up those numbers with the likes of Messi, Ronaldinho, Xavi, Ext… Drogba entered a young newly emerging Chelsea squad and still put up insane numbers. Both are great and very hard to compare!

    Hey Raymar I don't know if you are going to see this but sadly Diego Maradon a died today and so I was wondering if you could make a video on how good he was. 🙏🙏
