simply because Eto was playing in a big club in barca n also did individual brilliance in AFCON competitions..
playing in a big team is a big advantage n dts why players like mane, sallah n mahrez are top favorites for African best than d likes of oshimhen, denis, iwobi n even ndidi
Did Etoo stop Okocha from playing for a big club?

despite the fact that sir Ferguson wanted okocha, he opted to joined Bolton because of money.

My no. 10 – Drogba hails ex-Super Eagles skipper, Jay Jay Okocha

Ivory Coast legend, Didier Drogba, has become the latest football figure to praise former Nigeria captain, Austine ‘Jay Jay’ Okocha’.

Drogba, who won the Champions League with Chelsea in 2021, took to his Instagram stories to praise Okocha with the caption “My Number 10”.

He posted himself and Okocha with the caption ahead of the African legends match against former Senegal players.

The game is to celebrate the inauguration of the 50,000 capacity Abdoulaye Wade Stadium in Senegal.

Drogba and Okocha joined other African football legends like Emmanuel Eboue, Samuel Eto’o, Patrick Mboma, Asamoah Gyan, Emmanuel Adebayor and others to play against a Senegalese team full of former internationals.

Recall that former Cameroon striker, Samuel Eto’o, also said Okocha would’ve been put on the same pedestal as Ronaldinho if he was not African.

And how did jayjay perform better than Eto? Is it by dribbling around players?

Stop all this capping abeg. Go and watch Eto again and tell us if Eto didn't deserve the awards he earned.
Etoo actually had the stats that Okocha did not have. Yes, Okocha is a better footballer but it did not yield as much results as the other guys that were scoring goals and giving assists.

Nonsense!
Keep deceiving yourselves.
Any little praise that they shower on Okocha, people want to over-stretch it!
The guy was barely above average, nothing extra-ordinary about him.

You cannot be a better footballer if you could not yield as much results by scoring goals and giving assists, especially for an attacking midfielder.
If football were to be standing in one place and joggling with the ball, there are a million people who could do that better than Okocha.
Maradona, Messi, Ronaldinho, Abedi Pele, etc. were very good play-makers and goal scorers.

I get your point as it relates to goals and assists but who would you say was a better footballer between Christiano Ronaldo and Ronaldinho? We know Ronaldinho is a much more talented footballer but Ronaldo just has more stats.

I don't think the above is necessary, let just enjoy each and every moments while it last.
