When asked about any regret as a footballer, legendary
footballer Austin 'Jay Jay' Okocha said;
"If I have any regret that would be not winning The
African Footballer of the Year. But then, I don't think I
was meant to because I gave my best, but at the end,
it wasn't good enough. However, I had a fantastic
playing career"
When asked why no other footballer has been able to fill the
vacuum of the No.10 position he left behind, Okocha
replied;
"I don't want to sound arrogant but the truth it that
there is something special about me.
Sometimes, you
have special players in a squad, when you lose them,
it will take like five to ten years to get another set of
such players.
Not that the people trying to fill the
vacuum are not good, they are great in their own way,
but they are not just special. With time, Nigeria will
get the special one that will fill the vacuum I left" He
told Encomium
