Weah should be first. Dont think any of the others won World, European & African Player of the Year in the one Year! In 1995 Weah did just that. Never heard of those guys from Egypt who came 2nd and 3rd. Milla made quite an impression in the world cup but not much at club level. Pele in 4th was very talented but didnt reach Weahs level

I am proud because Hossam HASSAN (Egypt) has played two seasons for my team PAOK Thessaloniki. For Weah is one of my best and for Etoo Kastriot is still too young these players the most of them at least retired.

If we are to count achievements outside of the (African) continent the lowest he should be is second.

This list is rubbish!
If Mido was sooooo good how come he didn't find his feet @ Roma? What has Eto'o done in comparison to Weah? Milla deserves first place no doubt but Weah is surely second!!

I am also not very fond of this list - seems too biased in certain aspects - but not sure where did you see Mido on it, drucurl?

Hossam Hassan is a real legend in Egypt. He has around 200 caps for the NT. I remember him from WC 1990 in Italy, and you can imagine my suprise when i saw him 1 year ago still scoring for Egyptian NT ! Maybe he's still active, dunno, i'll check ! EDIT : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hossam_Hassan http://www.angelfire.com/ak/EgyptianSports/hHassan.html looooooooool, he's still active.
