Okocha never won major club honours - would have always been difficult for him. Mikel was never exceptional enough as an individual.

So it's sad our most gifted player was not accomplished enough, and our most accomplished player was not gifted enough.

Kanu is my most gifted player and luckily enough he is the most accomplished too.

Yes he was. To win it from Etoo, Your club must win at least one good cup.

None.
Eto'o was better in the years Okocha had a claim.
Far better actually.

You obviously don’t know what you were saying.

Okocha was robbed by CAF. It was corruption

Mention the years he was robbed.
I don't have time for beer parlour analyst Biko.
Eto'o was one of the best players in the world.
Okocha never was

They are all caf- African football player of the year worthy...

It's unbelievable Jay never won it. He came close though. Mikel came close also.

If all of them were in their prime and are all nominees I had to pick best from this your particular list:

-Jay
-Taribo
-Mikel
-Amokachi
-Obafemi

For me it would be a close margin to pick Mikel above Amokachi but I rated him above because he is a more versatile player.

Also Obafemi would be a bit far down the perking order.

Quality players - all of them!

You took it all from my mouth. cool

Op where is Finidi George in that list.....Finidi achieved far more than any of them in that list.

Man was a celebrated star in Ajax Amsterdam with several league trophies and Champions league to cap things up, left for Betis in Spain and continued his onslaught, a CAF nations cup winner etc.

Finidi should be in that list ....what is super eagles and Ajax without their number 7 in his playing days.

Yakubu aigbeni should win it...

Yak was actually a good striker during his prime years.A deadly finisher.He was far better than some strikers been paraded by some EPL clubs now.He still among the best African export to EPL.
So he could have won it as well.

Re: Which Of This Ex-super Eagles Players Deserved A CAF Footballer Of The Yr Award by madridguy(m): 2:08pm On Dec 13, 2023

So you expected CAF to award someone playing in Bolton ahead someone playing FCB?

Kcfresh2103:
JJ

How that guy won the BBC African player of the year award ....and someone else was given the CAF award same year is still a mystery to me.

I'm still surprised till today. Okocha is very good.

I think he should have played for top clubs in England/Spain instead of Bolton.

Do you know he was robbed in 1998?
