Was never.

He was always a support striker.
You know your onoin boy, can guess you are not of the indomie generation afterall. Butthe reason he left arsenal was because of Henry.

Okocha was better than Kanu in everything about football....

Okocha had immense ability but on a technical level, Kanu offered more. It is not just pulling tricks for the fun of it but when it matters. Okocha can flick a ball all day but when Kanu does it, it is to beat a keeper out of position to catch the keeper by surprise. When Kanu backs the post and flicks the ball to his back, it is because he has anticipated a move from one of his teammates.

On that, Kanu is King.

In Cameroon, Thierry Henry might/will say Eto'o is the most lethal finisher/Africa ever produced. He will not say Eto'o is on the same level or close to Kanu based on technical play.

He won't say that if he sees the road that leads to KANU's dilapidated miserly bungalow at Amannagwu in Arochukwu.

KANU Nwankwor can only boast of a defunct Heart Foundation while his counterpart in Liberia will officially be the President of a country after December 26th.

KANU was a fortunate player whose greatness would have been forever unrivalled if only he died of that heart disease at the peak of his fame in 1996.

Seriously, do you just enjoy been quoted, or you just love the fact that you bask in the euphoria of stupidity..

But, based on technical ability, no one in Africa comes close to Kanu Nwankwo. His goal against Chelsea, the third one on his hat trick night shows this. No other player in Africa has that kind of ability to win the ball on the far right of the field, make a dashing run, skin the goalkeeper and hit a curler from a tight angle.

I think that is what the Arsenal Legend, Thierry Henry is trying to point out. Based on technical ability, Kanu aka Papillo is the King of Africa.

Now, I want to agree with you. Kanu was a gem. You need to see so many of his goals. The ease with which he scored from tight corners and dribbled past goalkeepers was just simply beyond the ordinary.

Thierry Henry is a big time coward!


Who is Nwankwor Kanu compared to Samuel Eto?
Who is Nwankwor Kanu compared to the irresponsible boy called Mikel Obi?

Well, Henry might just be right to say Nwankwor Kanu is technically the greatest player out of Africa because he made sure Kanu's middle name at Arsenal became Benjamin and he never did anything about it.

A player that left Arsenal unceremoniously and got sacked by West brom is that what henry calls great?

Henry must be high on excess Guiness stout.



Na your papa sack KANU for west brom ba..crazy fool.
KANU is among the top 50 greatest player that have ever played for arsenal,and he's still respected anytime he comes around the club.
how many players have arsenal celebrated after they retired apart from Adams and bergkamp?..
just dey open ur stinky mouth,dey talk rubbish
Re: "Kanu Is The Best African Player" - Thierry Henry (Photos) by piippa(m): 9:48pm On Dec 17, 2017
Henry didn't say Kanu is the best in Africa he said "Technically" . Kanu is More technically gifted than any other African player but Samuel Eto Fills is the Best African footballer.

Where are the likes of George Weah, Eto,

What of Mikel Obi ....Oh sorry!!,
grin

In terms of Trophies, He isn't topping in Africa...ETO is topping!
In terms of Ballin, He isn't topping... OKOCHA is topping!
In terms of resting on bench, He isn't topping,. MIKEL is topping!
In terms of personal awards, He isn't topping.... ETO and GEORGE WEAH are topping!

He was just opportune to play for almighty Ajax then and fvcked up by playing for one old man Arsene wenger who has refused to give Arsenal fans back their soccer joy.

Why and how is he the best player in Africa?
