Hey what do you think about mikel's perfomance today?

I thot it was a very masterful display for a young man with tremendous talent. maybe just maybe there is life without JJ Okocha afterall. We have a new no. 10

i don't think so, ayila or odiah i think are better off.

mikel is only good for 2nd half

mikel new jay jay? he cant be. maybe in 2 years time. jay jay was patriotic in his day and he gave his all. mikel is only the new makalele in chelsea but not the new jay jay. he sees chelsea above nigeria and i think he needs to be punished fo his actions.

Oh yes thank God someone sees it dt way tooo

Mikel is Mikel not new Jay Jay, the guy is still a young man who still have the chance to learn so much handling the midfield for Nigeria, Okocha started really nice time in midfield play 1999 though he was know with his fine dribbling skills but there was no authority in term of distribution of balls and accurate passes to others players advantage i mean the strikers.

Okacha what at his peak (i mean took football really serious) when age was not in his side, but mikel at his tender age have those quality required from a good midfielder, have good passes, can not be easily dispose by any player when he is with the ball he might not play like okocha but atleast he still have something to cheer us.

From the way things are going down @ the bridge, Mikel's probably gonna end up being Nigeria's defensive midfielder !

never

He's no where close to being the new Jay Jay, besides they play different positions, u can say he might b eth enext Oliseh (Oh how i miss those days ) with a bit more discipline and respect he has what it takes to become world class, cos he hardly losses the ball and is very difficult to disposses

I think he's adding too much weight --- if he doesn't tone it down, he's soon gonna be playing like Geremi Njitap

The guy stays at England, and you know, Lampard has given him what he gave Shevy to eat lol the TRIO are now FAT

Jay Jay = god

Mikel Obi = mere mortal

lmao

Jay Jay = god

Mikel Obi = mere mortal

I make this statement based on personal experience.

It was in 1995 when Nigeria was playing in Saudi Arabia in the Intercontinental Cup.

This was Jay Jay in his heydays, when he was dazzling Wembley or bamboozling those upstarts at Old Trafford in the C/league with Fenerbache.

This particular match, NTA was not offering any commentary so we had to listen to a constant deluge of Arabic.

Okocha was on fire that day. He was using his whole repertoire, and it all became too much for the dazed arabic commentator.

He screamed: 'Okocha, Okocha, Okocha, Allahu Akbar

God bless jay jay

Jay Z = God MC

Jay Jay= God Baller

You want to insult the great Jay Jay Okocha. There is just no semblance in their kind of football. Mikel is never going to be like him.

Never

Mikel to me should not be likened to okocha because as long as football is concerned okocha did not make the history we expected from him.
trace okocha from the day one till date and begin to wonder what went wrong with him.
despite all his moves with the leather, he got less medals and individual awards.
i see mikel as a refined okocha with sharp passes and football sense despite his age.
even okocha himself would want mikel to go more places with football than he did.
the boy is doing well and if things continue the way it is, we will one day come together to be proud of him as a good ambassador.
i know in the next 3 years, he will be having a warehouse for medals and awards in which area okocha failed.

Ma brova dt one na big lie


Well u be Mikel supporter so no need

Not everybody has the fortune or luck to acquire medals and Jay Jay happens to be

among the less fortunate ones. But that cannot demaean the fact that Okocha has

added value to world football/history. he has held the world spell bound with his

dazzling display. He has paid his dues and we cannot bugrudge him that.

Mikel, on the other hand is a fine player and we pray for God to give him more grace

to achieve greatness in the feed of Football.

ppl just seem to forget too easily, he was so good he was named twice!!! try john john makes no sense. don't ever try comparing both players, his highness (jay jay) was in a league of his own. let it end there abeg.

Mikel is nt PERIOD

jj left a shoe, a cap, a jersey and above all a position too big for mikel or any other person (at least for now) to fill.
okocha is one player we miss and will continue to miss for a long time to come.
okocha is THE PLAYER.

what kind of topic is this?

Mikel is dead compared to Okocha

Okocha could decide a game why mikel causes more damages.


Okocha was very good at long throwing while mikel can not distribute a short passes

Okocha no dey form unlike stupid mikel wey him father even confirm his son they form

Mikel is one of the bad eggs in the Super eagles team

Mikel the new Okocha? is that a joke?

how many shots on target does Mikel take. He's only scored one Chelsea goal in 3 years and that was against some 3 division team in the carling cup. It was a scruffy headed goal from a corner kick. that's it.

Infact, If Mikel were to be playing for a midtable team, which is where his ability suggests he should play, no one will be asking this question ever.

Good Question. I'll rather compare Mikel to Oliseh.

The only player that shares similar attributes to those possesed by Jay Jay is Rabiu Ibrahim.

that sluggish la.zy idi.ot called mikel can never be and should never be compared to our living football legend and maestro Okocha.

So you now know better than all five chelsea coaches (Morinho,grant,scolari,hiddink,ancelotti) that have left him in the chelsea first team? Rubbish. To your anguish whenever Mikel leaves chelsea it will be for another big club in Europe. What you should be trying to find out is what this foreign coaches see that people like you need to grow up to understand.

How many goals did Makelele score in his entire career?

Okocha is a good player no doubt, but with all these accolades have you tried to find out why Okocha never had any look-in by any big team in Europe?

Okocha did not step into anyones shoes in Nigeria so is it not necessary to produce another player in Okocha's mould for us as a nation to play good football.

Okocha has his style with its attendant strenghts and weaknesses, so does Mikel. I hope you get it.

God forbid bad thing Mikel the new Jay Jay, Never no way Iro nla, Rabiu Ibrahim is the new JJ .

overrated Arrow! look whether u like it or not this guys case is a case of someone with a good chi and probably some great home support from mom and dad from some spiritualist.

havent u ever noticed that outside that chelsea team the guy has never ever performed? when surrounded by a good system and great players an average player begins to look really good!!!! without the essien/lampard/ballack support this guy has never been all that.

and for the 3 coaches assertion, mikel is simply the cheapest alternative. besides he is not required to do anything spectacular in any match, make up the numbers, get in the way of opposing players, when he gets the ball immediately look for someone to pass it to or face his goalkeeper! abi u don ever see mikel dictating a game before?

he was an ego buy for jose so he needed to justify the spat with fergie, the guy got playing time and any susequent coach simply did/could not make wholesale changes to the system. grant had no spine/ideas/ scolari was too daft and was even trying to bench him at a point, hiddink had no time and couldnt even recruit his own players so he worked with what he had.
now anceloti is starting to show signs that mikel is a bench material.

in fact this days upstarts like song are beginning to look far better! see the boys performances for cameroun and arsenal!

players like mikel are the reason naija wiil be backward in football, average talents overhyped!
