Nigeria football legend Jay Jay Okocha has been listed among one of the world cup's 100 footballers of all time! The list compiled by The Guardian Sports was released today, and our very own Jay Jay is 78. The Guardian Sports wrote on their website...
"World Cups 1994, 1998, 2002
Appearances 9 Goals 0
So good they named him twice, Jay-Jay Okocha was a wonderfully original footballer, capable of taking the breath away with the kind of improvisational skill that was beyond the majority of players; at times, he seemed to be inventing new tricks as he went along. Despite his undoubted quality, he perhaps lacked a crucial level of the consistency or decisiveness that might have elevated him to the top, although he did help Nigeria reach the second round twice.
