Damn son, this Nigeria was especially where I had problems with him. The talent was obvious but the use was not purposeful. A less talented footballer like xavi or even xabi Alonso or Toni Kroos were better because they were purposeful with the way they played. No unnecessary entertainment yet they are greats in their own rights.

Kaiiiiiiiiiii... you're overrating the okocha I know! Was he a freekick specialist? A great passer of the ball? What shooting technique? All I remember is his dribbling skills...no doubt [b][/b]about that...and only at Bolton did he play purposefully to lift the team...and at Frankfurt while still developing...for Nigeria believe me he didn't push the team enough to consider him better than average.
Our problem is we're unduly emotional about who we follow and rate them from our point of view

Kanu played 10games. Started 3 came in 7 times

Stop with the false arguments please. They had won two world cups before then, lost a final too.They weren’t newbies.

You just Dey use concept wey u no know the meaning. What exactly is box to box in football? And how does it relate to yekini? Him Dey follow go defend everytime opponents attack?

oluwaahmed:
What was so special about yekini? He was a classic box-to-box striker like ighalo & Agahowa. maybe the slight difference was his speed despite his size.
Odemwinge, martins on the other hand could switch up from 9 to 8 to 7 sometimes and they scored mad goals for club and country. Same thing with KANU.
BTW okocha was fully in Nigeria squad of 1994 that won the nations cup & 2nd round KO of usa94.

When you talk about an all round contribution to a team I think okocha will be severely benched by most of these guys up there. If your team were leading 4-0 you might sub okocha in to entertain the fans.

Jokerman:
I'm term of footballing talent (no records, no acheivements etc).. just footballing talent I.e passing, skill, vision, dribbles, one on one situation, technique etc... Name 5 midfielders in the history of footballer better than Okocha...

May I fry beans now?
