I'm not even from africa, but i regard him the best of the best of all time in terms of skills and talents. when i started watching football, the legendary players like maradona and pele were no longer playing. beckham, scholes, cantona made me love football and man utd, but okocha is the greatest dribbler I've seen growing up. i idolized him, and started to watch bolton matches and learned about their other great players like campo, juusi, nolan, davies. i know he's retired years ago, but this man has never gotten the recognitions he so deserved. thank you for the years of entertainment, Mr. African Magician! ♥️
in germany he got the recognition, he is still very popular. the today so-called rainbow trick isn't called so in germany. they call it just okocha-trick
He does something which I haven’t seen other players do. He’s able to strike through the ball in a way that it is able to go far without rising too high. It soars through the air maintaining the same height it is amazing!
Incredible technique. Prob top 5 of the most technically gifted and creative players in football history. Alongside Maradona and Ronaldinho. These three were just so unpredictable and always wanted to put on a show for the fans.
The man who even Ronaldinho called, His Idol. I was honoured to meet him in person during the AFCON in Egypt. What a humble ever smiling guy. A genius in football
Jay Jay's dribbling and control were awesome. I am a Liverpool supporter but would often go to Bolton matches just to watch him. Like Ronaldinho, he would beat defenders for fun.
those were the days no body supported Bolton or Southampton but soccer Am was the le tissier, jay jay and even David Dunn show back then, i so wish my kids could watch footballers play like this now , football has got so boring
Okocha made even his opposing supporters to enjoy the game. I am a Cameroonian and the day we played the finals against Nigeria in 2000 I supported Cameroon and Jay jay okocha.
This guy was more than a genius. He was a phenomenon. A very rare kind of player that emerges once in several decades or even a century. And even after retirement, he is still dazzling the world in invitational matches for Football greats till today . He is definitely among the top greatest players of all time. And I am so glad I had the honor and privilege to be alive to witness his wonderful phenomenal skills. 👏👏👏👏
The most fearless player, never afraid to approach the moments because he knew he will dribble his way through. Gave some of the most iconic passes and assist in the sport. Okocha was more than talented
I remember when my country (Zimbabwe) played against Nigeria he really showed us what world class football is, l enjoyed watching the game so much that l ended up supporting Nigeria
I thank God who gave me the opportunity to watch this inimitable maestro in his heyday. In this guy the Nigerian national team was blessed with a genius of the very highest calibre, unsurpassed and unexampled in football artistry, absolutely magical, a virtuoso performer, an indescribable pleasure to watch. This guy was a generational talent, the football equivalent of a Mozart or Beethoven. We might never see such a prodigy again. I doff my hat to Jay Jay Okocha.
Even after long retirement period, I think Okocha still deserves an award from the international bodies. He is really a motivation for the younger generation and excitement for older generation.
He is the most underrated African player, in my opinion he was and still remain the best attacking midfielder Africa ever had.just like Eto and Drogba if they were born in Brazil or Europe the story could have been different.
Eto and Drogba are world recognized legends.Eto was a second best world footballer.Drogba has a statue in Chelsea Okocha was so great but his choices ruined his chances,going to Bolton at the peak of his career was the greatest mistake.I wish he went to a better club,he would have won so many titles individually and collectively.He was a top talent
..... Bag of tricks 🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣 The English loved him for that.... I remember seeing a guy with JJ trying to do those tricks off the pitch...😅😅😅 Laughed hard
Those long passes with his side of is foot was maaad and they got to the expected destination without problems,men we can have someone like him again, he made me love football
One of the best football players in the African continent and perhaps in the world. Still one of my favourite players in African.I mean it. Hello there, here's Sénégal 🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳👌👍
If Jay-Jay had been Argentinian and had played in Barcelona and had a certain sports equipment company behind him, he would have won more than 10 golden balls. Jay-Jay was truly a brilliant player !!! RESPECT JJO !!!
This guy was more than a talent,and all the players that faced him when he was having the ball should be respected,this guy was a different creature trust me.They're only 2 in this world ''Okocha and Ronaldinho''
Thank u youtube from bringing us such memories ,for the benefit we they younger ones, this man was a genius...he would have been worth 200 million in today's market.
These type of midfielders are now the most in demand in football. Creative players that are confident and press resistant on the ball. Can dribble and drive the attack, never afraid of receiving the ball, could break organized midfields single-handedly, even if he sees 3 midfielders he will take on them and create space for his teammates. Pep Guardiola would have done wonders with him
Sadly, they don't produce players like these no more. In fact, modern day football is gradually doing away with "Natural No 10s". Now, everybody plays like robots. It's all about pressing & pressing🤦
Exactly! He’s the player a team like Chelsea lacks. He disorientate a perfectly organized midfield and creates unexpected passes. His shots are thunderous! His genius is unspeakable, the speed at which his brain calculates moves is beyond smart reflex. He would have been greater if he was born in a developed country.
No, players who are wasteful flair players like him, who take too many risks in the form of long shots, dribbles, flicks, ambitious passes would be in trouble in these days, teams hate being hit on the counter and being clinical is more important than taking risks that concede the ball. Many many games Okocha was completely ineffective when he didn't have the ball much, or his team needed to play with discipline on the ball rather than flair
Jay Jays name will always be up there in history alongside the likes of Ronaldinho as an elite club of few individuals who were born with the natural art of moving a football. He was a beauty to watch and those untaught skills and moves linger on in memory and they defined even modern-day football. Respect.
Okocha,un artiste sorti tout droit d'une planète inconnu!Un vrai maître d'orchestre,probablement le joueur Africain le plus technique que l'on a connu... Vis longtemps l'artiste et merci pour ces moments de bonheur...❤️🙏
JJ OKOCHA remains one of the greatest football legends the world has ever seen. The International Football Body owes him a very big apology for not honoring him with an international award. He was denied honor simply because of racism. He was a Black man from Nigeria (Africa). players of his kind comes into the world once in a thousand years. Ever since JJ OKOCHA retired from professional football, My Country Nigeria has never been able to find a replacement for him in our Nigeria National team. Jay-Jay Okocha was one of the single largest reasons why Nigerians developed an addiction to watching Nigerian football back in the late 1990's till early 2000s.
Yet the westerners who think that no African deserve to be honored robbed him off many award he really deserved. So painful to know that He retired just like every random players.white men will never respect Africans neither would they ever change for good.
What is this nonsense? What did Okocha win in his career? Why did he deserve the Balon d'Or? He never competed at the highest levels!!! He was a gifted player but by no mean close to the best ones of his era.

No podría ser más genial uno de los maestros del mejor de todos los tiempos. Grande Okocha, sin duda el jugador africano más técnico y crack de su época. Ronaldinho alguna vez reconoció que verlo jugar le inspiraba. Hoy, viéndolo un poco más viejo, me viene esa sensación de haber podido ver a un jugador increíble, rápido, genio pero sobre todo muy inteligente. Legenda Jay Jay, estas entre mis 10 jugadores favoritos de todos los tiempos.
Jay jay okocha, world 🌎 best player ever. The world has never had his kind since his retirement. Hope to see him one day and award 🥇 him. This is talent! 🎉
And you are a master too sir... I had looked up to you since I was a boy... Music became my passion after had seen your fingers rubbing off on smj... I wish our path crossed sir
It's a damn shame that so many players with ancestral/familial ties to Africa like Jay Jay Okocha were denied the careers they deserved. Easily one of the most skilled footballers ever.
I believe Okocha will get the honour he deserve some day, especially for his contribution to foot-ball. He was really talented, like it or not, his creativity on the field was amazing. He made foot-ball entertaining and a sport.
That assist to Ronaldinho is similar to the passing on the baton like Ronaldinho did to Messi in Barcelona, JJ okocha talents is one the best in the world
If you watch he does almost the same step over in alot of the situations, but he’s just so damn good at it nobody can stop it. Even Keane got sent for a hotdog
When I watched his excellent performance in the Nigeria-Ghana nations cup in the year 2000, I just knew he is a great player. He became my favourite player.
Because he was inconsistent, and for all his highlights he made just as many errors trying the spectacular instead of basic. If you compare him to Ronaldinho he took more risks, had poorer decision making and was much much less effective with his output. An the guy was pretty useless without the ball so to get the most out of him you had to compensate in other areas of the team, and why do that as a big club when you can sign players who will be more consistent, smart and hard working and have a similar output? For a club like Bolton with a hard physical identity outside of okocha, players to cover him and not much creativity, that is fine. For a big club that can get players as good as okocha that do more then no
As a South Korean, I always remember the golden time of soccer in Nigeria led by Okocha, Kanu, Babangida, Amosachi, Oliseh, West, and so on. It wasn’t a surprise if they beat contenders👍🏻
Watching that highlight of Nigeria vs Brazil, I couldn't help but think Brazil would have loved to have him on their side because he represents so much of what made Brazil so great to watch through the generations. The flair and pure joy of displaying your skills is special.
his signature skill was soo good. it pulls defenders backwards an slows them from catching up to him. he`s soo good. unlucky he didnt play for the top clubs
I am sure if there was a game today and Okocha was playing, you always know for sure you will be entertained. Football was so easy for him, he saw what many kids around him didn't see. But the most important is the timing, he know a defensive footballers reaction and he worked around it almost naturally. To a point it was almost out of this world. Imagine if he played for Brazil....? Imagine the connections, the assists? Bolton Wanderers...this was and is your legend.
So the moment in the match against Brazil Ronaldinho didn't go marking him again after Jay Jay rolled the ball away, he knows it was a waste of time, he just reiterated from going close🤣🤣
There are players and teams who honored African football, and there were many players who possess emotional stability and skill and do whatever they want on the field. ❤️🙏
Thank you Jay Jay you made me love football...African cup of nation with my Apoti, car battery, and a black and white TV, whenever Jay has the ball you will just love him cause of is skills, I remember my big brother will shout. Jay Jay it's ok pass the ball...LOlz....My first team was Bolton I support every club he has played for....Until I decided to Join Arsenal 2009...Living Legend..Egbon Nla...Koni Baje
Jay Jay Okocha remains one of the greatest footballers that football has seen. I respect him and every memory of him in football always. A great example and model for footballers. I really wanted to see him play for more years before hanging his boots. Great man indeed!
Il me faisait tellement penser à Ronaldinho dans sa gestuelle.. un génie. Et dire que les gamin se branle sur neymar... inconstant mais tellement fort ce Jay Jay
one of the greatest talents ever. unlike all the other top players today he didnt have a great "football education" in his youth, he was pure street baller just like many brazils in this time. pure legend
saw him in 97' in fenerbahce. red puma shoes and a yellow hair, straight outa street fighter mode. he is the allen iverson of football. most underrated. style and signatures 10/10
Jay Jay Okocha is a wizard in the middle of the pitch. In his prime, he was virtually unmarkable in the middle of that pitch, as the play maker in arguably the best eleven "Super Eagles" ever, the '94 set, Jay Jay's exquisite dribbling techniques, top-notch shot and pass selection are just on a different level.

May God Bless J.J. Okocha for Representing Africa With So Much Class and Honour. Mad Respect To This Great Man.
In my country growing up as kids in his era we regarded him better than maradona.
Still better dan maradona forever
@@emmanuelskilful2489 always better than maradona
Why Maradona. He played during Ronaldinho s era
@@andrewmohlala3262 he was already heading for retirement when Ronaldinho met him
Same here in my country to 🇪🇹
As a Bolton fan we were blessed and so lucky to have okocha for 3 years
World class yet underrated
Being black is European football is shit. The racism there smells.
He uses the same move over and over again, and still dribbles with perfection. Defenders are left lying behind him, what a baller.
Jayjay was a different breed,see Ronaldinho had to bow down to Okocha's assist towards his goal
There are players and teams who honored African football, and there were many players who possess emotional stability and skill and do whatever they want on the field. ❤️🙏
Même si le Nigéria a perdu face au Brésil la prestation de Jay-Jay Okocha montre bien le talent de ce joueur
Individuellement c'est un génie oui
He laid goal scoring chances, the strikers couldn’t convert
Thank you Jay Jay you made me love football...African cup of nation with my Apoti, car battery, and a black and white TV, whenever Jay has the ball you will just love him cause of is skills, I remember my big brother will shout. Jay Jay it's ok pass the ball...LOlz....My first team was Bolton I support every club he has played for....Until I decided to Join Arsenal 2009...Living Legend..Egbon Nla...Koni Baje
Thé most African talented player ever.
Jay Jay Okocha remains one of the greatest footballers that football has seen. I respect him and every memory of him in football always.
A great example and model for footballers.
I really wanted to see him play for more years before hanging his boots.
Great man indeed!
Nostalgie de ce joueur dommage qu'il n'est pas eu la reconnaissance qu'il méritait
Il me faisait tellement penser à Ronaldinho dans sa gestuelle.. un génie. Et dire que les gamin se branle sur neymar... inconstant mais tellement fort ce Jay Jay
Realmente no es tan reconocido, pero es demasiado distinto, creo que su figura irá tomando mayor relevancia con el tiempo, fue un jugador grandioso.
Okocha était un gros bourrin. Je préfère largement les artistes du ballon rond comme Eric DiMeco ou Cyrille Rool
He was well stamina, balance, power shoot and fast feet , football Brain , proudly Nigeria 🇳🇬
Not good football brain.
Africa's finest and best of all times 🔥🔥🔥
one of the greatest talents ever. unlike all the other top players today he didnt have a great "football education" in his youth, he was pure street baller just like many brazils in this time. pure legend
Okocha is the greatest talent to have ever graced the game of football in the world 🌎🌍
He’s literally the most gifted dribbler in the history of football 🇳🇬 He’s unpredictable.
Ronaldinho bowed for JJ in the last 3 sec of the clip. What an hero!
JJ Okocha is the best African player in football history ❤️🇸🇩
Herh! So he did all these in football 😳🤯😳WoW!!! It even look like Ronaldinho copy his part of his style of playing
Yes, Ronaldinho has admitted that a number of times. They both played at PSG of France.
@@KnowHQ oh wow, I didn't know, thanks
@@Godinary he's a mentor to dinho, so what do you expect
Yes dear sir
He did more they are many that are not on the Internet space , how he played with at list of popular players during he's time.
Jay Jay was one of the reasons why I became a Nigerian team fan....❤❤❤
Legend has it that his name was so nice that they had to name him twice.jay-jay.what a legend
Am from Tanzania dodoma can you help me detector aneed
saw him in 97' in fenerbahce. red puma shoes and a yellow hair, straight outa street fighter mode. he is the allen iverson of football. most underrated. style and signatures 10/10
one of the best skilfull Player... i remember him playing for Frankfurt:92-95 and then in England (Bolton).
Jay Jay Okocha is a wizard in the middle of the pitch.
In his prime, he was virtually unmarkable in the middle of that pitch, as the play maker in arguably the best eleven "Super Eagles" ever, the '94 set, Jay Jay's exquisite dribbling techniques, top-notch shot and pass selection are just on a different level.
He was so good that whenever he played against top midfielders they always go missing
😀Very true
😁😁100%
I saw mim make Roy Keane disappear like a firefly in the night with one turn!
@@harolddottin10 😅🤣🤣🤣
He is an icon and a legend. Yet i still feel he's underrated... Talent is Okocha, okocha is talent itself
Meilleur footballeur africain de tous les temps
Je suis d'accord avec toi
Thanks for the highlights ... such an underrated player...he deserve more recognition.
Whe a legend like Ronaldinho said 'the Only 10 shirt I’ve always admired’
That mean everything
Whenever my mind switches to football stars, Okocha comes first and I have named my first born son "Jay Jay". From malawi
3:50 The quality of this pass is simply outrageous! What a player!!
What you got to rate about this highlight reel is that he's turning up against the big teams! Absolute Baller
