LOl. spike lord we've goten d gist!

Nd yeah i agree wiv u, he way better dan beckam, at least he does more attacking, deffending nd almost nything (xcept keeping). All beckham does (really) is carry dat his big leg 2 score a free kick. (dont get me wrong beckham is also a gd baller).

BUT OKOCHA IS BETTER!!!

Ronaldinho is more successful but not more skillful

honestly this thread should've been closed a long time,

ronaldinho is better than okocha now,

but then okocha[b]was [/b] better,

so wats d stress,

Ronaldinho rocks anyday anytime, the guy is a wizard and even though i am not a barca fan, i would still say ronaldino is 2gud. he is just too much even though they cant fit buy me ova laye laye, gunners for lifeeeeeeeeee where there is igwe(Henry). he is my best.

Did i here someone mention Beckham in the same breath as Okocha? This is RIDICULOUS. I'm not replying anymore. I've been insulted.

Some people here are forgetting Okocha of early 90's. They are comparing after millenium Okocha to 2002-2006 Dinho.

I doubt if Dinho wouldn't have retired if he had faced the Italians of the 90's because one of his legs would have been amputated by now. But Okocha did and still playing till today. I'm out before it gets too personal.

Wait for me abeg, did i forget something<--

bab and chris, wait now! We re saying Okocha is was better nd still better dan Beckham we are on the same side here now! No vex!

Ronaldinho.

Beckham shouldn't be brought here at all!

hucarson:
@ goodguy,
I must assume your problem is the Use of English Language. Go to your dictionary and check the meaning of skill.
How can u utter a statement that Ronaldinho is better than Okocha in all areas but skills? U seem to forget that the all areas u have mentioned are skills as well.

Heading,Powerful Shots,Free-kicks,Goal-sense,Ball control,Stealth,Tackles and etc are all skills.
The more skillful player amongst these 2 will be the player that has more of these attributes than the other and that makes it Ronaldinho.

Well, I created this topic and I made it clear earlier what I mean by skills. No one is talking of dictionary meaning here. This is about manipulating the ball to make people shake their heads in total awe! Only Okocha does that everytime! He's a wonderful entertainer on the football field, if not the best soccer entertainer in the world!

Besides, I guess you should also have a review on your understanding of the use of English. When I say he's better in all things except skills, I don't expect anyone to question my use of English there. It's clear enough to be understood.

babwilms:
1) Okocha is more creative, as in he can do the unexpected
2) Better Dribbler. Jaw breaking touches.
3) Both footed. He uses them more than Dinho. He can shoot perfectly with both.
4) Okocha has good long range passes.
5) Box to Box type of midfielder
6) Unpredictable unlike Dinho (step overs always)

Abeg tell them jare! This is what I'm talking about (especially the part in bold)

Beckham ko, Beckfoot ni!

Jay Jay gat more skilllzzz.

U don't say!

Jay jay is good beta than beckam, Ronaldinho is good better than okocha. No doubt he is a nigerian but that does not mean we should deviate from the truth you know, the real truth. Compare Okocha and Eto and i can partially say he is beta than eto

We are talking about remarkable midfielders! I don't think Eto should be here

let me tell u what i think

i think this thread should be closed,

okocha is a faded star, who should have retired when he should have after the 2004 nations cup,

obviously he wanted to have a go at winning the caf player of the year which has eluded him, i'm sorry to say but he can never win it.

talk of dinho and okocha, abeg they are both different in their capacity to deliver, if its in that perspective jay jay messes up, loses d ball most times

OKACHA IS GOOD, Ronaldinho IS BETTER. . . Period

Like I keep saying, Ronaldinho is another better Okocha!

Abomination, what are Beckham and Eto doing on this thread, mentioned in the same breath as Jay Jay. Are you sure you guys watch football at all?

I am a fan of Jay JAY and Dinho but i believe Dinho need few more years to be compared with Jay in terms of skill.

Have you forgotten we are comparing Jay Jay in his prime and Dinho in his prime right now.

Abomination. Peace

A better way to put this argument would have been, "At their peak periods, who is the better player". And haba, why would anyone agree it's Jay Jay? Ronaldinho plays computerised football . Okocha was no doubt a great player at his peak but it is not comparable to the kind of things Ron does with the ball these days. Even the great Maradona mentioned at a recent interview that he is sure after the world cup in Germany, Ron will be regarded as the greatest player of all time. He is simply phenomenal.

Ok lets compare

Dribbles: Maybe 50 - 50 here
Passes or assists: Ronaldinho for sure
Free Kicks: Ron
Speed: Ron
# of Goals: Ron
Headers: Ron (never even heard of JJ scoring with his head)

So what are we talking about??

The reason why Dinho would be mentined probably the greatest is because their is no good competition for him right now. I mean he plays among stars in Barca and Brazil. So what do we expect. But i will still have Henry any time anyday before him.

Dribbles- jay jay is better
Shooting- Jay Jay can shoot with both legs accurately and with more power
Free kicks- Okocha is better. Dinho hardly gets it over the wall this days.
Work Rate- Okocha is obviously better
Long range passes- Jay Jay is better

Well i've never seen Dinho and Okocha score with their heads.
Why am i back on this thread? I guess i can't stand JJ been ridiculed. Peace

Ronaldinho is the bomb.

Who are those saying Okocha is more skilled? Liars all of you.
Dont mislead us here.

BAB, tell em suckers (jst kidng). JAY JAY, na d superman of the field. At his peak, he was one of the greatest, but the guy is close to 40 nd u guyz are still comparing him 2 a young bobo. Doesnt that tell u dat the guy is GOOOODDDDDD. The guy is a legend, if at his age una still dey think he fit play better than Ron, or if u guyz still think he comes second after Ron.

Everything, una dey talk, is falttering for him and proves 2 show he is one GOOOOOOODDD mofo.

Ashiwaju:

No doubt he is a nigerian but that does not mean we should deviate from the truth you know, the real truth.

Even if Okocha is from Pakistan, I will still choose him over Ronaldinho in terms of skills.
