When he gives you that Okocha skill, your whole body will be confused turning around in confusion. He really punished Paul Scholes, Ashley Cole and even Ronaldinho was careful when around him.
I still remember watching his full game debut against Italy in WC 94. We were watching for Baggio, but this skinny Nigerian midfielder was doing things on the ball and twisting some of the best defenders in the world inside out. I remember even the commentators picking up on it. We were calling him the African Romario that day. He went on to be so great but under appreciated.
because his black, and nigerian...he was best than most players of his time, but yet, so little talk about his tremendous skills and moves. I believe he was equal or better than ronaldinho, zidane, etc.
What I loved most about him was the way he created space for himself and team mates. When the ball is played to him, he calms the game down, especially when playing against teams who like to rush and intimidate their opponents like Man U used to do in the past
Yes. But he was not very effective. Beautiful moves but did not give the teams a powerful attack. He would pause the attacks. Made them slow down. Thats why I dont support his moves and his football. Not a very smart player to make the team win.
@@wilberduran9410 Even though Ronaldinho learnt from him, your point is why Ronaldinho was more effective. But I disagree that Okocha was not smart. He only managed his weakness. And that in itself is smartness. He was a great dribbler and ball passer. He didn't have the ability to combine speed for a long time with his dribbling against opponents. He could do that when he was much younger but could not maintain it as he grew up. If he tried it he would have been committing some blunders. So he was effective to the extent of his weakness.
@@nihilistlivesmatterwhat an ignorant statement, go look up his stats throughout his career and you'll find that he was better than Scholes in both scoring and assist department.
@@oxe9593Em dribles ele era mesmo nível que o Ronaldinho, só que ele não tinha a mesma visão de jogo de passes é não batia faltas igual Ronaldinho, mas no drible o cara monstro
@caiocavalcante5462 Bro, he was the rule model For Ronaldinho and they play Together in one team in France Check his free kicks bro He taught Ronaldinho everything It was said by Ronaldinho himself
Okocha was a footballer who could dribble past anyone without touching the ball. Extraordinary footballer, another like JayJay is not going to come to the pitch again soon..
Watching the premiership highlights on a Saturday night when Jay Jay was a Bolton was a treat. You'd literally tune in to watch what outrageous bit of skill he did this week.
JJ played for fun..always with a huge smile on his face. I wish played under a coach that would have brought out more end product from him..but then again, would JJ still have enjoyed his game under such a coach? He didn't have pace like other magicians like Ronaldinho and Maradona so deeper roles suited him better. That's also a possible reason why he didn't score many goals.
His management failed him, he said in one interview that he didn't know much about his move before signing, he just had a offer with a better salary and he went for it, just like how players are going to Saudi to make more money after they'd played a reasonable amount of years in Europe, okocha was not hungry for trophies or achievement, he just wanted a good life with what he enjoy doing football, even if other club didn't show interest, all he needed was to turn down Bolton offer and instruct his management to get him a better team, he can even see out his contract and become free and big club will rush him, who wouldn't a free world class player that will cost them nothing to bring in, okocha said he was never educated on transfer business, he knew nothing about how it work, he just had offer that will pay more than what he's earning and he went for it without considering how it will benefit his career but rather how it will benefit his bank account, he would have become the second African to win world best if he had played for clubs that had won trophies, ambitious clubs with good hungry players
Indeed, your analysis is on point and that cost him some of the most significant global laurels. He shone before the likes of Zidane, can you imagine that!
You're right! Most African players didn't go far due to the bad management they had. Okocha would've gone very far and won trophies and awards if he had a better management team.
This man played football for fun, according to him... in Europe racist was very high, the only way to subdued them was this magical dribbling. He was enjoying the dribbling.
Wow I feel robbed by the media for not talking about him. I mean this is majour! He ran circles around them. How did he not get signed for major teams tells me it's conspiracy.

It's never too late to give Jay Jay Okocha, what he really deserved then, and it can be termed a belated award, as these video clips speak for themselves, of greatness of Jay Jay Okocha in the round leather game!
What Bechkam did at 0:12 might have been a red card in today's football. Such a reckless and vicious challenge with a clear intent to injure Jay-Jay Okocha.
Jay Jay was miles better than Scholes and Gerrad on the ball, but never gets any respect in the Premier league, he COOKED ALL the so called best players lol😅😂
Jay-Jay Okocha is one of the greatest player of all time in the history of football but never received the kind of recognition he truly deserves. He is a global talent. Massive love for Jay-Jay Okocha ♥️♥️♥️
Most skillful player in decades. He was unfortunately not always in the right teams with the right teammates. Maybe with PSG. But that was a total different era then nowadays. A balon d’Or winner is mostly also in solid teams where they can excell.. Without Barça Messi probably wouldn’t have won a single Balon d’Or in the first place. And the last one was obviously given. Just like the whole World Cup win.

In Winning Eleven 9, Okocha had Dribble Accuracy 98

The world most decorated soccer player..... One day his skills will be a case study in soccer college
Do you know what being decorated mean? He was the least decorated football talent. He won far less honours and awards than he deserved.
