ASK POLO.
Lately, Polo seems to be taunting all the players who played in the 70s that he was the best and that he is even better than L. Messi when he was playing soccer. I watched a you tube interview that was granted Abdul Razak about a month ago, and Razak was asked if he was better than Polo. Guess what his answer was? He simply said he could not tell, but that should be left to Ghanaians to decide. Yet Polo claims he was the best player in the days. It is that Kotoko v Hearts rivalry.

I am glad we have ppl here, who are old enough to have seen both players contribution to the national team. Thank God. I am older than both players, and I can honestly say without a doubt that Razak did more for Ghana than Polo. As you are saying, Polo was very good in Hearts of Oak but not in the Black Stars. That's my opinion too. Even Stanley Matthew, Pele and Maradona did not claim they were better than L. Messi. Let's have some peace, Alhaji Polo.

@A.M.Soccer is not only about dribbling. Razak was better than Polo. CAF officials are not Ghanaians to be biased in awarding Razak the best player.

Razak deserved the award in 1978 as at that time Polo was not 100percent fit.In all fairness Polo was better all round player in the 70's as the legendary Kwabena Yeboa himself will attest to it.

Polo was a skilful and an entertaining dribbler, but Abdul Rasak was a serious and an imaginative player who can do whatever he wanted to do with the ball. I first saw him play for Kumasi corners stones together with Akwetey Armagh long before he joined Kumasi Asante kotoko. I will place him in the class of the Great Maradonna.

Agyeman Prempeh got injured in 78 before Polo and Kuntun Blackson were called back to the black stars, when Malik Jabir was in the national team Polo never got a chance to play.

I'm surprised at Polo's behaviour and utterances. Polo was a fantastic footballer but he was fading out in 1978. In fact he was not regular in the Black Stars, during the 1978 tournament he came on as substitute in the matches he featured in. Razak featured in all the matches and his performance was super.

Abedi Pele is on record to have said that the only Ghanaian player better than him is Polo. Kwabena Yeboah has confirmed it and so is Carl Tuffuor.

Razak is in the GOAT conversation as one of Ghana's greatest. Polo while he was good too was not the best in that tournament. I was a kid back then and saw the evidence live. Remember his body swerve on one of the Zambian players in Ghana's first match and his goal against Tunisia. It was beauty to watch. Against archrivals Naija they had difficulty containing him and resorted to fouling. In that tournament he was the best. However overall judging the two, it would be a close call. Ghana's best top five not in any order goes like this. They are all in the conversation.

The Golden Boy scored the Golden Goal against Tunisia a very tough team at that time. He was the Greatest in Africa in the later 70s and early 80s. Polo the dribbing wizard was better but Abdul Razak was the best. Even Abdul Razak's days at Arab Conttractors made Ghana proud and Ghanaians in Egypt and the Arab world were well treated due to their love for Razak. They were all good and played team football. George Alhassan will also say he was the best too and Adolf Armah too.

Stop making "noise" about your own greatness. You should be ashamed of yourself. I didn't expect this from you. Is there a "beef" between you and Abdul Razak? Remember he is your senior brother, who has carried himself both on and off the field with respect. You need to apologize to Abdul Razak. Shame on you!!!

Infact this comment from Polo is very bad, and wrong coming from a person of Polo's caliber!
To say Razak did not deserve the award in 1978 is not true at all!!!.
In 1978 Razak was at a far greater peak than all the players in the squared!
The issue is not who was a better all time player, but who was best in 1978! And there is no doubt at all that Razak deserved the award.
In 1978 Polo was nursing an injury and couldn't have received a call up if Agyemang Prempeh the then Black Stars regular left winger had not been injured in a trial March (with SS74?).
I wonder how Polo could say Razak did not deserve the award in 1978. who did Polo said deserve the award, Himself?
Or was Polo choosing the ALL TIME best in 1978?
This comment coming from Polo is very negative, it makes me think Polo was a good player but a bush man!
Under no circumstance should he say such a lie in the public domain.
We should also remember that Razak was a good midfielder and Polo a good left winger.
Before 1978, Polo was an accomplished member of the fearsome 5 forwards of hearts of oak.
While Razak was a member of a new Kotoko team.
But individually Polo's FORM in 1978 was nowhere near Razak. Razak was a far better player than Polo in 1978.
Both Polo and Razak a legends, but history shows Razak has a better record than Polo, Razak has Best African Footballer of the Year award, which Polo never had, Maybe Jealousy motivated Polo to utter this nonsense.
It is impossible to truly compare Razak and Polo:
Polo was a great left winger, and Razak a great midfielder.
We should learn to acknowledge our players as being unique and stop the unnecessary comparison.
Like in life certain persons get opportunities that others don't get.If we use going to the world cup as a standard for greatness, Oppong Weah will be a nobody, I don't remember his being when at an AFCON, but he won the Best African, European and World player.

Polo of all people should know better, humility is a virtue, under no circumstance should he say what he said against Razak. A wise man does not blow his own horns. To do so makes one a bushman and undo ones achievement no matter how great!

Polo should come out and apologize, period.

Abdul Razak, the golden boy was much better that Mohammed Polo by far. Polo was a local player whilst Razak was an international material. Razak was assigned a contract to play with the New York Cosmos, an elite soccer team. Though, Polo was a good player he needn't have to compare himself to the Golden Boy in any shape or form.
