In Barca Technical ability is the most important word above quality

That's why average players like Sergi Roberto with good technical ability are first team players
Suarez isn't the most gifted technically yet he fits into their system. Ighalo can do a job as a bench option...besides it's only for 6 months so yeah.

That's my point as well and not because he's supremely gifted technically.
Nothing wrong with not wanting him but he isn't a bad option for 6 months.

And that exactly is what a player needs to get to the summit.

Okocha was one of the most talented Footballers of his time. But some other less talented players achieved more.

I have seen so many extremely talented young Footballers waste away while it was the averagely talented but more hardworking and highly dedicated ones that end up as great players.

Promising Nigerian defender Caleb Okoli has been handed another opportunity to make his professional debut after he was named in the provisional roster by Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini for their Coppa Italia clash against Cagliari on Monday evening.

Twenty two players were included in the traveling party for tomorrow's match at Sardegna Arena, meaning Okoli is certain to be named in the match day squad as the Italian Federation permits up to 12 players to be on the bench.

If he steps out onto the pitch, he would be wearing the number fifty five jersey.

Okoli is a physical central defender blessed with excellent aerial prowess and anticipation.

Born in Vicenza seventeen years ago, he is touted to be one of the best young defenders in the Primavera 1 and has 11 starts to his name for Atalanta U19s in the league this season.

He was an unused substitute as champions Juventus were held to a 2-2 draw by Atalanta in the Serie A on December 26, 2018.

Okocha is great but overrated by Nigerians

Could not win common African player of the year

Some keep on saying he refused to sign for man united and joined Bolton instead

Okocha's talent was no hype.

What really affected him was his development. If Jay-jay was a Brazilian or Spaniard I am sure u know he would have received better attention during his development phase.

Okocha is one of the most talented footballers I have seen in my life time.
