you guys have got to be kidding me? beckam, ibrahim..? lets face it.. Okocha is a great player..one of the best dribblers and controllers i've ever seen(and i've watched MANY)...just watch the games, and dont be to quick to criticize..the guy is great!..and i know nothing of him personally to start passing judgment on his character, or to even go so far as to compare his character with other soccer players...i dont eat with them or drink with them....so lets talk about his game...from a fan's point of view, the man is great to watch; only other player i prefer watching more is C. Ronaldo. Let's be fair, please! To answer the question..I DONT KNOW. I truly hope his color wouldnt make any difference in deciding his value as a player. I hate it when politics gets in the way of sports!
