Crazy that he only scored 14 goals. That's half a season for prime Yakubu.

Which begs the question......

Who was the better of the two?

I will still choose Amokachi, but Yak was a beast in England

Yak was a beast wherever he played (England, Israel, China etc.). Even in his 1 season in Qatar, he score 5 goals in 10 games.

Not sure the comparison. Yak was the better productive player and scorer. Amokachi was a better support player, with persistent pressing.

Was Amokachi a classical no 9? Yak was a pure 9 but Amokachi contributed more to the game than Yak, he was a supporting striker.

I wish we saw a prime Yak and Emenike in a 4-4-2 setup. That would’ve been a nightmare for defenders. Two dudes who were lethal and fast for their size.

Amockachi is one of the most overrated players to ever wear the GWG. And to think he was one of the players who sabotaged the team, refused to pass the ball to yekini and kept out ballers like akpoborie. Now he is using his influence to keep out the foreign born players. The 94 set are the problem with Nigerian football. Look at his stats Pitiful.
