But why is Kanu well respected than Okocha?

Kanu destined to played in one of the Europe biggest club... Arsenal unlike okocha who only played for Bolton wanderer... Also kanu played longer dan his compatriot in d field of play.. I privileged to watched kanu play for Portsmouth but didn't watched okocha play at all....

Still don't knw why okocha retired from football so early unlike his other age mates.

People will say individual awards don't matter in football and I ask, says who? Realistically J. J. is a better player compared to Kanu but awards and trophies Kanu won individually and collectively at the club and country levels has made him one of the most decorated African players and as a result FIFA place Kanu ahead of J. J.

During the World Cup J. J. was in DSTV studios analyzing games while FIFA picked Kanu as a delegate to Russia.

Kanu the Peak Milk man

JJ is more skillful than Kanu, no question about that, but Kanu is more intelligent and technical than Okacha.

Ekez:
But why is Kanu well respected than Okocha?

He played at bigger clubs with the big boys, He won more trophies and even though he was never really in the first 11 in most of the big clubs he played for, he is always coming on to score important goals when he is called upon(Chelsea fans can attest to this).


Okocha never played for big clubs like kanu and despite him having the skills, he is known for squadering goals not until he joined Bolton at the peak of his career.

My point exactly, Jay jay is a better player to Kanu as a footballer but Football isnt really about dribbling and showing of skills alone, you have to be technical and intelligent which in this case too, Kanu has the upper hand.


And Yes, luck too........Kanu is one lucky player i know!!!

Ok insightful

Ekez:

Not true.
Okocha has been more involved in FIFA and international football activities.
Kanu selected for dis over Okocha is one of the few nods he gets over him.

On the pitch J. J. is obviously better than Kanu off the pitch Kanu is rated higher by FIFA

Okocha also played the legend tourney before the worldcup, he, Kanu and i think Finidi was invited from Nigeria.
He has been repping fifa too in some other capacity, however, you are right that Kanu is more celebrated

you are very correct, JJ made a mistake by sticking with Bolton wanderers when man u wanted him,if he had played for man u then he certainly would have won individual honours such as African player of the year n lots more that would have made him bigger that KANU, in life one simple thoughtless decision can cost one dearly but this is not taking anything away from KANU n what he was able to achieve.

One is always supporting and encouraging the young lads in the Super Eagles team,while the other that (only God knows the reason) retired when the team needs him the most is always pointing accusing fingers at players.

Because okocha failed to be successful like kanu

Ekez:

He was a chronicle on global scene (Atlanta '96,club success stories and then his heart surgery event and later foundation) which overshadowed Okocha's brilliance on the field

Even if you are been raised badly try to pretend you are not like that whenever you are outta there

You can't give what you don't have anyway

Honestly this comparison is uncalled for
