Kanu is most intelligent and high soccer IQ Nigerian player ever. Okocha is most technically gifted Nigerian player of all time. My favorite super eagles player of all time I witnessed play could be Osaze odemwingie

These are generational talents and not easy seeing them.

Haruna Ilerika
Henry Nwosu
Etim Esin
Austin Okocha......Mikel Obi would have ed these generational talents but Mourinho did him shege.

When you watched these great guys then you appreciate football more....

Nigeria football history began in 1994 on the global stage. All those aforementioned names don’t count . Folks that couldn’t qualify for the World Cup in their prime.

My guy, I no follow those who get expectations before. My hope only rose a little after we beat Rwanda in their backyard, but after the uyo disaster, I don forget am. Not even the motivational speakers who wey full here fit to convince me, so I no even need Ogbolo or whatever for confirmation.

Mikel wasn't technically gifted like the others. All he had was stability, tactical discipline, long es and dictating play from deep. Beside he wasn't the fastest

No Oga, Nigeria football global history started in 1976 with Afcon bronze,this team qualified for 1976 Olympics games..The same team almost made it to 1978 WC with Odiye scored own goal.....the same team won Afcon 1980.

1975-1980 eagles was the first golden generation not 1990--1994 set

Do you want to hear Koko.....Kodak under 17 WC gave us real breakthrough in world of football though under age and from there people began to respect name Nigeria

Seems you know him personally
Best place Is Arsenal
He won’t regret it
100% trophies
They need him
He won’t have to do much, he go see all types of es from Odegard and Saka like crazy smiley

When last Arsenal win trophy?
Make una rest for all these best place talk
At the end of the day Osimhen will go to wherever he wants
He knows what's best for him
All we can do is him and wish him well

I concur about this but Okocha is the biggest Nigerian soccer brand globally. Honorable mentions include Yekini, Sunday oliseh, Mikel obi , Osaze, for the oldheads Segun Odegbami, Christian chukwu

Oga Zicky,Kanu is intelligent and won laurels that only Mikel can compete with but Kanu cannot be the best Nigeria player ever,only way to rate Nigeria best player is Super eagles,I repeat it Super eagles.......how could Nigeria best ever player went to 6 Afcons and 3 WCs with no goal and his assists is debatable..... Argentines accepted Messi after winning WC,and they valued his goals and assists.

I respect Kanu cuz I watched his debut match live for Nationale against Ranchers bees of Kaduna in FA cup played in Ilorin,he came in from the bench and scored,zeal it for Iwanyanwu in a dramatic way,after the match me and my friends went to Circular hotel in Ilorin where Nationale lodged to see tall and skinny boy Kanu,then baba I be real local football fan and tagged stadium boy.

Pls how would you rate Boniface as at today in Nigeria football history compare to Osimhen and Lookman
i totally disagree with you, players are rated base on club and national team all over the world unless you have an a bias mindset. You can't throwaway 100s of games to rate a player base on a few national team games. Argentina and the world already know Messi is the GOAT, he only needs the world cup to cement that status. Watch players with open mind, Osimhen playing for Gala, he's not just representing Gala but also putting Nigeria on the map. Yes national team football is important just as club football. Kanu represented SE playing 86games and you want to tell me he was just a squad member or a pushover even in the SEs. It's an insult to even use Boniface who's not even an established SE player to compare Legendary kanu because he has zero Afcon goals

if you say so. For me I rate Mikel very highly but Jayjay was already a household name, a brand. The position Mikel played affected his rating and it's unrelated because Kanu we are talking about is a 2 times APOTY which no other Nigerian won in 2 decades until Osimhen.

Kanu performance in 6 Afcons and 3 WC will always make it debatable to rate him as Nigeria best.

If going by APOTY then Ikpeba is greater than Okocha.

You guys don’t understand, Osihmen is not European either by birth or citizenship, it’s better he goes to a club for his good mental health and happiness, all these ucl is no big deal, he’s already a star with global recognition, all he needs is a club where he will be well respected. Even the Man U sef I no want as the British press no go let am rest. It’s up to him sha. I need osihmen more for the national team than any gaddem ucl. If am him I will stay in turkey or go to Saudi.
Hmmmm to just play football without winning something ain't no good oo. He needs trophies in his cabinet. So far as per senior football, he's got just one league cup and on a personal level, the capocanieri. More, more, more

Kanu is genius. That's all I can say. If he were in the ancient world, he'd be venerated as a god!
