So he didn't win it.

..I laff..these are the same people that gave the APOY award to the Malian because the Ivorian couldn't show up....gave the award TWICE to a wastepipe like Diouf when Okocha was making Diouf look like a rookie in the same EPL league they played in..dude..U're biased beyond reason...unlike U..we football pundits watch ONFIELD soccer...not stats...in REAL raw talent..Okocha is miles ahead of Abedi...Okocha's only problem was the he was too playful on the field...
