im not actually surprised diouf is in the list. Looking back, i find alot of potential in him. Most importantly, I respect his loyalty to senegal, unlike ppl like pat vieira dont u all think so?
the best is yet to come..

I was amazed that Diouff was on the list. I can think of at least 100 better that played since the 1980s, and that's not denigrating Diouff's achievements with Senegal.

I mean, Ray Houghtan and Craig Johnston were better players than Diouff and they are not on the list.

I'd rate Kewell above Diouf and he's not in the list.  I find it dissapointing that not one of my countrymen are on the list :( :(

Apart from Christian Vieri  :D

Theres two Irish,Keane and Best but no Brady,McGrath,Giles,Jennings.And amazingly no Welsh.What about Ian Rush,Ryan Giggs,Neville Southall,Robbie Savage(joke).Diouf instead of Rush,is he taking the p#ss?.And only one Scot!!What about Souness,Hansen,Law,St john,Bremner etc.The list is a joke and should only be used as toilet paper.
