Samuel Allardyce, former Bolton Wanderers Manager, has rated ex-Super Eagles of Nigeria Captain, Austin Jay Jay Okocha, above Cristano Ronaldo Portuguese and Juventus star.

He steered the team away from relegation with seven goals, including the team Goal of the Season in the vital league win against West Ham United same year.
Allardyce in his new book entitled Big Sam’s Autobiography said he could watch the ex-Super Eagles star play all day.
He wrote, “I love Jay-Jay’s tricks on the ball, I could watch him all day.
“He could do drag-backs, flick-overs, double step-overs, there’s been no else like him, not even Cristiano Ronaldo.”
