What a joy to watch the legend himself shining in such glorious company.

On the field, legends like Ronaldinho, Roberto Carlos, Cafu, Rivaldo, Vinicius Junior, and the legendary Nigerian wizard, Austin Jay Jay Okocha.

And guess who outshone them all? 🤩🤩

I keep saying that Jay Jay can still do a job for Eagles today, even if it’s for the last 10 minutes! Just to destabilise the opponents with his skills, and create something out of nothing!

At his peak, he didn't create something out of nothing. Check his stats out for club and country, below average for an "attacking midfielder". He was all skill and no end product

What the heck is Vini doing in a legends match?

Football is about far more than stats.

I’m sure Jack Grealish has better ‘stats’ than Okocha, but he is not fit to wipe Okocha’s boots.

Also, it’s only among you young “Nigerians” that we see this constant swipe at Okocha over his ‘stats’.

How many of his games did you watch?

Or you just watched a few clips, checked his ‘stats’ and then think you know him?

On YouTube, videos of him get millions of views and comments of admiration from across the world. Nobody gives a damn about his ‘stats’.

Just like no one cares about Ronaldinho’s stats.

Or Bebeto.

Or Pele.

Or Neymar.

Or Maradona.

Some players are above ‘stats’.

Jay Jay Okocha is one of them.

Real football fans who love the game, know this.

All those players you mentioned, try and look up their stats. And like I said, Okocha was all skills and no end product.
