Nearly 400 players from 30 different nations across the African continent have graced the Premier League.

But who is the best?

Lee James is joined by Janine Anthony, John Bennett and George Addo to somehow come up with a list of the top eight African players in the Premier League. There’s also a special appearance from former Nigeria, West Brom and Stoke winger Peter Odemwingie, who puts forward his case to make the final list...

And then we head to a lockdown knockout with the top eight going head-to-head in the quarter-finals, in a battle to be crowned champion.

Sarah Mulkerrins, Mo Allie, Melissa Reddy and the ex-Tottenham, Norwich and Cameroon defender Sebastian Bassong have the unenviable task of picking the winner – so who will they decide?
