Dede,your father was good but Jj was superb dribbler.
Who will point his or her left finger at where he or she comes from?
Ur father was arrogant
We are discussing the skillfulness of Abedi and not his character.
"Hate"
I PLAYED AGAINST ABEDI WHEN HE WAS AT GREENHILL INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL B4 MOVING TO TAMALE,THEY USED TO CALL ME BOSS.I WAS JUJUFIED AND LEGS BROKEN TWICE, GOT HEALED BY SOME ALHAJI BUT AN OLD HERBALIST IN PRESTEA ALSO TREATED M ...

Kun yaro!
@NYANKOTON: Anta ga baka desu! Goma desho?
Abedi is certainly one of the greatest players in Africa,no qualms about that.Abedi,although skillful (like Messi &Maradona),used a lot of speed to outwit his opponents,and scored a lot of goals.Okocha was a dribbler and very ...

You seem to agree that Abedi will be your first choice #10 which I agree.
Abedi will certainly be the first choice #10 of any good coach,because he was always attacking and looking for goals.Okocha although, very good,believed in entertaining the crowd with his dribbling skills.
Thank U Emperor, I also believe you are right about JJ's antics, however I think Kanu Nwankwo is Nigeria's GOAT.
Nooo!Abedi Ayew Pele was the ultimate Football Machine, dribbling included
Okocha was the most skillful African footballer of all time.Abedi was good but never came anywhere near Okocha with regard to soccer skills.
This is like comparing stephen appiah to awudu issaka. Appiah more purposefulness in his play than awudu issaka. Abedi was miles ahead of jj
Well said Amaltinga.
Do you understand the word 'SKILL'?
You are all jealous of Abedi, he made Ghana to be known very well in europe for his skills. Okocha had to be registered in frankfurt at one time because of Tony Yeboah, he gave them an ultimatum if frankfurt wants him to play ...

Abedi for Real
Is not true,even you didn't see jj ockochar,he is better your father.if you like,get their videos and watch.
Abedi pele is the most skillful player that Africa produced. Okocha is a kid where Abedi is,in Africa,Europe,Asia and all over the world. If you are in Ghana you dont know the value of Abedi pele. But out side Ghana people wi ...

Am a patriotic Ghanaian but to me personally JJ Okocha was exceptioal and a head of Abedi
Abedi pele is more skills if you have played the nd know the game then nobody should tell the young man is right, he didn't say Okocha is not good.
Abedi pele is the best
Abedi is more than okocha from ghana to Nigeria, ghanians are skillful than Nigerians, Abedi pele didn't learn football he is God gifted skillful.
Nyankoton you a fool like yourself did you hsve such a great man in your family? let sleeping dogs lie.
I will choose abede...not because he is my country man but he is also in fifa 16 legends with likes of roja miller, Cantona and the best legends...u guys can check it out...
This is like Pele v Maradona, Ronaldo v Messi argument all over again. Let it rest and they both were very good players.
J J Okocha was better
A bed was supreme. Absolutely no comparison.
@Abujomo true tony JJ make it in Frankfort right at which age your tony knows that he's a good player at that age but their don't want to use him come to think of it Who say Abedi is better go and goggle it out let see
The teams they played and their achievements and recognition says it all. Abedi was way up there. Okocha was very good but Abedi was exceptional. Try to write in English.
JJ was more stylish , but Abedi was fine and clean dribbler and not stop worker who never loses balls easily
okocha is very skilful and good passer of the ball dan pele
very good comments thumbs up
I like the Sincerity of Andre Ayew. Abedi's pedigree has no comparison. I am looking to the day when another Abedi will emerge.
Indeed Abedi is over and above JJ in all respects of the game. Abedi really made football enjoyable.
Albedo Pele was the greatest.Ghana vrs Burundi @ the Accra sports stadium check out the goal he scored.great.it was a pass from Felix Aboagye.
You mean the one he chested the ball into midair and followed it up there with a side kick (semi bicycle kick)?
Abedi was rated twice by fifa 92 tie on 11 position and 93 place on 41 position, Anthony yeboah nine times from 93 to 02.
93 on 11 position, his goal too is among the best 50 goals in the world check
Who is talking about Yeboah? Anyway how many African footballer of the year awards did he win? How many champions league etc.?
Kweku Trouble, you are absolutely right. We all have the right to say which of them is our favorite and base our argument from our own corner (as to why we say he is the best), so the best way is to go back to what is officia ...

Okocha compared to Abedi is a laughing stuff, ah he's nowhere near the maestro...three times Africa great??????????? no way not even in Europe will the comparison hold water
Dede is talking about skills here.As far as skills is concerned, Jj is compared to the likes of Ronaldinho, Zidane. They can do anything with the ball.That's SKILLS.
Awwww dede
Ur dad was good and thanks to his contribution to his national team. BUT JAY JAY OKOCHA IS ALWAYS THE BEST OF THE BEST un comparable to anyone in Africa. Wat I know the CAF cheated him for not awarding him African best player ...
