@thelonecitizen jay jay scored 30 goals in 63 games at fenechanche before he left for Paris

His wasn’t a striker ooo but number 10 who sometimes was deployed to the flanks

Good. That makes him a Turkish great doesn't it?

What were his accomplishments in Turkey?

TheLoneCitizen:


Oga no enter world, na Europe we dey talk.

But in line with this, these are the kind of records that typify Okocha's time in Europe.

Dribbling Oliver Khan
Mentoring Ronaldinho.

You also mentioned he was so good that he was given a Turkish passport.

Well Nwakaeme is so good in Turkey that he was given a statue at age 32, which is extremely rare for an active footballer.

To buttress, Okocha who retired since 2008 cannot boast of any in the four leagues he played in.

To reiterate go. The house, I'm not saying Okocha is not a footballing great. No.

But just like Pele, he didn't conquer Europe.

Look at Di Natale, no trophy, but a Serie A great.

so na statue dem tk Dey knw who be great for club abi? Trapzonspor is not even among the big boys in the history of Turkish league so they management appreciate having a talent like nwakaeme in their ranks which they haven’t had before in their history

Do you know how many greats that played in the Turkish league but never had a statue? I bet you don’t know of Romanian hagi who also played for barca and Madrid

charlesemeka85:
oga nwakaeme can only be recognized as a great in trapzonspor not the Turkish league as a whole

Is Jamie Vardy a EPL legend?

charlesemeka85:
then Lyon and any of marseille,auxerre or Monaco represent the league in the ucl while others battle for uel spots

Psg was a top 7 team then in ligue 1

Okay agreed

TheLoneCitizen:


Is Jamie Vardy a EPL legend?

I think he is ,with more than 100 epl goals and the title ?

charlesemeka85:
oga nwakaeme can only be recognized as a great in trapzonspor not the Turkish league as a whole

Turkey league greats too plenty oooo

Nwakaeme can’t be among at all

Subzero47:


So because his club built him a statue means that he is a great and Okocha isn't, this una argument sef

You need to be able to differentiate between Trabzonspor great and European great, Nwakaeme maybe a Trabzonspor great but he has not done anything to be regarded as a European great

I never said a statue makes you great, I was comparing that to Charles' claim that a Turkish passport is an achievement.

Being a Turkish league great is equivalent to being a European great. It means he has become a great in one of the leagues in Turkey.

If he wins the league title next month, he becomes a Turkish legend.

TheLoneCitizen:


Is Jamie Vardy a EPL legend?

yes he is, currently has over 100 epl goals and also an epl winner with over a dozen caps for England

keep on twisting your ignorance just for it to fit in to your claim

Nwakaeme is no great in Turkish league football

He you say of his current club trapzonspor I will not argue that but the Turkish league as a whole? Hell no!

Please is Olise confirmed and sealed to play for eagles or I should keep quite. Because I can't wait to see that man in eagles midfield. I don't want sake heartbreak abeg

I never told you jay jay is regarded as the greatest both in the league or in the colors of fenebahche but try to make you understand that years back he conquered the league before leaving to a bigger one

Longneck:
he has always been a bench warmer there


na una dey hype am

Always been a bench warmer there

Super glues Dey your eyes be that

Someone played 17 epl games out of 20 before he went for the afcon but he is a bench warmer

TheLoneCitizen:


Good. That makes him a Turkish great doesn't it?

What were his accomplishments in Turkey?

the likes of eto,Kanu,drogba and other African greats that did so well playing the game in the highest level how many of them hv their statues in any of their former clubs?


Even CR7 with his records at United and Madrid is yet to get one if not of recent that the Madrid management are planning on doing one for his contribution to the clubs history

Trapzonspor erected one or planing to be because they are yet to have a talent like nwakaeme in their fold since the history of the club which implies it’s a small club that doesn’t hv the power to lure good players


A whole George obong weah that conquered the serie A and europe when he won balon D’or no get even get statue for San Siro

So if clubs start to Dey built statue for every player wey get double digits a season na em be say packing lot no go get space for spectators and fans to pack their rides come watch match

Even the main reason for the statue is to lure nwakaeme into signing a new contract with the club which he is yet to accept

@andrew do you knw that the defunct savanah bank went out of business with jay jays 100m naira?

He even threatened to quit the national team because of it but then president obj promised that money will be recovered which never happened

Jay jay hammer for psg ooooo, even I will say that move made him super rich then

I can bet that among his set him and Kanu were the richest then

charlesemeka85:

Good. You just answered this your post below.

charlesemeka85:
oga nwakaeme can only be recognized as a great in trapzonspor not the Turkish league as a whole

Vardy - 171 G+A in 261 PL matches. Striker
Nwakaeme - 72 G+A in 111 SL matches. Winger.

Vardy - 14th highest PL scorer all time. Retires this season or next.
Nwakaeme - 8th top assist provider all time. (non-turks). Still has at least 3 more years.

Vardy - Leicester highest scoring player all time.
Nwakaeme - Trabzonspor second highest scoring foreigner all time.

Vardy - Super Cup winner, Premier League winner, FA Cup winner.
Nwakaeme - Super Cup winner, Super League winner (champions-elect), FA Cup winner

But in your opinion, one is a league great and the other isn't.

baba I am not disputing nwakaeme’s achievements but you can never compare the Turkish league to French ligue one let alone the epl

They are players that scored tons of goals in lesser leagues but are not counted amongst the greats that played the in Europe. You can only be recognized when you achieve such feat in the epl,laliga,bundlesliga,serie A and maybe the French league

The strength of any league is measured by the quality of players present in the league not only on finance and revenue.

if nwakaeme is currently putting up this numbers in the French league or even the bundeliga I bet you that few mid table epl and laliga teams will take a gamble on him even at the age of 32

Jeez you are now using the word 'legend' and being a Turkish great does not mean being a European great and Nwakaeme will not be a Turkish great by winning one league title

I remember that bank and jay jay 100 million naira

Wasn’t doubting that jay jay didn’t earn much but was saying it wasn’t up to 80k weekly then ,80k weekly then is about 200k weekly now ooo if I am not mistaken

He was among African highest paid then for sure

even our own yakubu aiyegbeni finished with double figures every season for the clubs he played for in the epl and has over 90 epl goals to his name no even get statue for the English clubs let alone considered as one of the greats in the epl

charlesemeka85:

Vardy did not become an English great by just winning the league, he was consistent at the top scoring charts for a long time, if by that Albrighton and Drinwater would be English greats too

The soon-to-be great Nwakaeme sends his greetings.

Abeg allow this matter rest. A yoruba adage says " When Elephants are being slaughtered in the hundreds...no one cares about the death of a house rat". Nwakaeme is not relevant in the scheme of things. Expend your energy sonewhere else.
