    Congratulations to him, always though that it would be between him and Eto'o (who came 2nd). Essien came 3rd in the poll.

    Drogba polled 79 votes in the poll of Africa's 53 national team coaches, ahead of Eto'o with 74 and Essien's 36.

    Eto'o had pipped Drogba to the 2005 award by two votes in the closest race in the award's 36-year history, with Essien again third.

    So does he rightly deserve to be the best african footballer.

    Your thoughts?

    Of course he does. Has there been a more prolific goal scorer than him this season from Africa?
