The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has named its top 11 players in Africa. Boasting of some of the finest footballers in the world, this list certainly would send shivers down the spine of any football team in the world. Its truly unfortunate that we cannot have such a strong team to represent us in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Carlos Idriss Kameni (Espanyol and Cameroon)
Defenders
Wael Gomaa (Al-Ahly and Egypt), Ismail Taye Taiwo (Olympique Marseille and Nigeria), Joseph Yobo (Everton and Nigeria), John Mensah (Olympique Lyon and Ghana)

Ghana still rules with 3 men, 2 Mid-fielders and 1 Defender.
But, where is Drogba (Chelsea and Cote d’Ivoire)? Strange!!
