Because u were never better than kanu,diouf,eto,aboutrika. Driblling is good but over doing it becomes a bone to ur coaches the reason ronaldinho career died because of his dribbling foolishness, messi dribbles but he did it when is necessary the only thing okocha am ok with okocha is his free kicks. Neymar today is going down due to his excess "show boat" is because of okocha that nigeria didnt qualifies for 2006 world cup because he was selecting games to play he did more for bolton than nigeria if i should meet him one day i will say same thing to him.

Jay Jay. So good they name him twice. My favourite player then. His dribbling is a sight to behold

Austin Jay Jay Okocha your legacy in football remain forever. You did well in football industry especially representing your country both locally and internationally.

Regret or pain?? Did you cause it yrself

NegroAcheiver:
He was cheated.A player whom some pundits said if he was white, he could have even won the ballon d'or

Delusional. Okocha was never even a top 10 midfielder in the world. Played in the same era as Ballack, Scholes, Zidane, and was never near them. Never.

EngineerBode:
Many times, people seems to dwell on the one single negative and forget to count the many positives. He should focus on the positives

Well expressed bro. Your head correct

Slawormir:
Damnnnnn niggarrr Isoright
Okocha nor play successful football
He was just dribbling and more of a ball juggler He got no football sense He contributed nothing and no impact in football

that's why Bolton named an entrance after h right?? he's highly respected in Europe but Nigerians never show respect to theor own do they?

Na now your day break

That is another politics in football .
French speaking countries against English speaking countries.

u didn't deserve it Sir. how can u win it wt Bolton fa.

Logankavoh:
Man like jay.

Lessons....Start working smart to make your dreams come true.. Cuss once you're much older is much harder and there's no turning back with age..

True talk

It is called destiny

hahaha

Whether CAF or BBC, u are a winner already.

NegroAcheiver:

How? Didn't you watch his expolits for his country? Even though he played for smaller clubs didn't you watch his impact there.Some of your pros you see were inspired by Okocha.He even started before those players you mentioned.What killed him was his love for money that denied him a move to a bigger and better club to showcase his talents in the Ucl.

Which money?
How much do u think the likes of Bolton, kaiserslautan, Frankfurt etc were paying him?

u r one of those that okocha entertained wt his dribbling without result. watch dribblers like Ronaldinho, Messi and Maradona n see d diff

U nailed it

You didn't take your career seriously early. Dribble, dribble, dribble.
I wish he had a good coach/mentor early in his club career, he would have even won world's best. The time he started to be serious at Bolton, e don late for him. - "The clothe we designed for Omoye came late, Omoye has nakedly entered the market"

So black no fit win Ballon d'or?

robosky02:
Was cheated twice by hayatou for etoo to winning




Too bad

stop this nonsense did he won the nation cup? League? Or golden boot? They should give a player that played 4 bolton rather than a player who played 4 barca and won tittles okocha was just over hype simple truth

Is all right.

Yes, he caused it, that's why he used that word. He was not serious in his early days. He will dribble the whole pitch, hoof the ball over the bar and he'll be laughing. He got the skills to be the world's best but he thought football is just entertaining. Entertaining is part of sports but winning is the ultimate.

A legend you are and will always be.

He was a real talent to the game considering the fact that he put ppl like ronaldinho through at a point in their careers... he just lacked the right connections to ppl that matters in the game which was why he never was recognised award wise but talent wise, I doubt there is any serious coach in the world right now or even players who don't know him for what he was capable of....God blessed Naija with him.

Okocha was my football goddess, He was robed twice that we know. I personally stop watching super
eagles and football in general till date after his resignation abi retirement from football.

Wetin pain me be say na NFA (then) caused am

Slawormir:
Damnnnnn niggarrr
Isoright
Okocha nor play successful football
He was just dribbling and more of a ball juggler
He got no football sense
He contributed nothing and no impact in football
No marked effect and influence....

If you like quote me and insult me because you are a Nigerian

Me also na Nigerian but i must say the truth...he nor play better football....kanu the papilo was the real niggarrr
Nigerians....thier sense of judgement, reasoning and rationale is gone.....

I don't think I have ever seen anyone say the truth as it is. I have said this on NL before now.
People tend to be emotional and sentimental. Eto deserved those awards by CAF.
JJ only played for himself alone: no impact on the society, no charity organization, no foundation, no partnership with any international organisation on the continent. Yes, it is his money and he decides how he spends it.
However,take a look at other footballers kanu,mane ,salah, Eto .. It's not far fetched- football has gone beyond me and my family alone.U need to impact and stay connecte, have a market value.
Also give back to the society what football has given you irrespective of how you struggled and started in the slum/ ghetto.
He wud just be remembered as a one of the finest footballers who possessed enormous dribbling skills.

Ok.
