Kojo

I was going to comment but PSG bought it. But in all seriousness, i think he's a poor player, he gets smashed defensively, good going forward but i wouldn't want him in our team, Bosingwa V.2 easily.

Proof? And give me a link to check and high quality please, I'm not a pervert i just need to see for sure, because these things are very serious you see.

No one can beat us, that's a load of shit!.

I would love for him to go back into that more defensive role what we had, even under AVB in that 4-3-3. AVB sort of played him as a DM in that 2-1 defeat to Liverpool last season, he was class there, was making great tackles and getting about all over.

Don't even get me started about hearing it all, someone said to me Welbeck will be better than Drogba in a few years...

I remember that pass, one of the greatest sets of vision I've ever seen, he managed to pick out Evra's mistake and find Didier, because it was Evra just keeping him onside. His pace is what's actually killed him and his stamina, but that ability might not be lost, he still hasn't had a rest or had time to get himself together. Now he has, you never know, he looked awesome in pre season, maybe he is back. Tiote sometimes reminds me of Essien back in the day, but Tiote is no where near as good, they are like box to box midfielders, they're about everywhere, but Essien was much more than just that, he could pass a ball and had underrated vision. Also we all know he can pull of a brilliant shot, a legend to this club for me and always will be, sad to see him go and i wish him all the best if he does end up going. He always will be my favorite player to ever wear the Chelsea shirt.

Strange thing was... i was thinking the other night, Essien might not be finished at all. Lets go back to Carlo's 2nd season right, Essien got injured he came back and he was just awful... pure awful, he was good before then, but suddenly changed sort of like Malouda did too. Then we where waiting on Essien to get a nice rest and get back to his old self... and what happened?. He got sidelined for 6 fucking months, came back and he was good for about a month then started showing signs that he's just not good enough anymore it all started against Napoli in the 4-1 victory. Then after that i've never seen him as bad as he was there, he was just awful. Then i say he's finished, but what i didn't realize is, Essien still hasn't had that rest, or any time at all to get himself back together, it's a possibility that Essien could still end up as the quality player he was about 3 seasons ago when we last won the title. Do you think it could happen?, and i totally agree with what you said it's a lose lose move i really do not understand the logic, and lets face it Mourinho is clever as fuck, he's probably done the right thing and got himself an absolute steal from us on this one.

Would love someone like Hazard to do it, what a take off that would be.

You don't understand, every thread i go on he quotes me and disagrees just to try and get me angry lmao, a man of his age also, it just makes me laugh when you think about it. But it's also silly, should learn to just ignore my post even if he disagrees with it, but he wouldn't because the so called wise man just wants me to get banned, his provoking will do nothing and i assure him that. He's tried to do the same with Henrique and Terminator X in the past, just a very sad person with nothing else to do.

Kyle Walker was a very talented player, brilliant in the u-21 tournament also. But Redknapp shot him out there to play all 38 games in the league and in cup matches, he was going off form halfway through the season and Harry couldn't really drop him even though he had too. It's hard for young players in the Premier League to just adapt, it takes time and you have to handle them, not just shot them in the deep end. And that's what I'm saying with Bertrand, he's going to have loads of pressure on him as he is an English talent and has just been given his first England cap and is getting one again i believe. So it's best to just rotate with Cole rather than play most games or even shove him out left wing that's all I'm saying, but i doubt he will even start ahead of Cole most times anyway.

You act as if i just said Bertrand shouldn't play at all. What is wrong with a bit more monitoring, i just hope we don't just shot him out there, because he's a young English talent who is going to have loads of pressure which he hasn't really had until now with his England cap as well. Just rotate him with Cole rather than play him all the time and shot him out left wing, that's all I'm saying. Once again trying to start an argument, act your age for once.

Has potential to replace Ashley Cole definitely, but we shouldn't overplay him by any means, just rotate with him and Cole that's all it takes. I wouldn't want something to happen to him like Kyle Walker for example, Redknapp got rid of his back up fullbacks and just shot Kyle Walker there to play all the games. Walker was good then started going off form and he couldn't be replaced, making shocking mistakes every game, made all three of them in the United game what they should've easily won. It's a shame because he was a great defender for Villa, i don't think that lad will be the same again. But i don't want to see that happen to Bertrand if we overplay him, i doubt it though, i just hope we handle this perfectly and give him the right amount of playing time.

Salomon Kalou?... constantly played for years and was never good enough. Because we don't have long term managers we always have different ideas when they come into the squad, and sometimes they don't get the time to get rid of players and sign new players or see if they can assess them the next season. Mikel is a poor player, all you're doing is making up poor excuses there, it's like Andy Carroll you're just going to tell me that he's good because he works hard?, not enough for me. You need quality, Mikel lacks it, i haven't just been jumping on his back recently either, I've been saying this last season even when he was on form, check my 'new season' thread, i also said Lampard cannot play in double pivot next season, everyone who replied to that disagreed, and look now. Not saying I'm right, but i do think Mikel lacks the quality to be our defensive midfielder, Falcao had way too much space the defense where relying on there 5th man don't even dare say Mikel played no part in it. Because never in my life have i seen a team give a world class striker that much space, usually they are always heavily man marked and watched all the time, the quality to still score goals however is what makes them world class with all the pressure and the other team trying to mark them out of the game. It reminded me of the 5-3 to Arsenal last season, every time they went forward they looked really close to scoring, not good enough. Mikel has done this 9/10 times in his Chelsea career I'm not joking, but we make up these excuses all the time, i dread it when we play Arsenal i really do. But if you're right and Mikel turns out good then fair play to you, maybe you had me on this one, but at the moment i really doubt that as he doesn't look like he can improve at all.

That post is bull shit, because likes mean nothing, plus a lot of people disagree with me on my opinion on Mikel because they think i'm just a controversial bastard and probably some murderer in real life, nothing but a bunch of haters who do nothing but stalk me on this forum.

That's not caring, that's just pointing something out what I've noticed. If i cared i would be crying because damn they hate Chelsea and Mikel. But they do have a point, Mikel is shit and theirs a reason why no one else rates him, that is my point. If anyone's ever wondered that anyway, as where David Luiz I've seen many say he will be class in some time.

He exists...

What!?, no they don't, in fact no one on this site even rates Romeu at all.

Was going to ignore the post but just to let you know, you still didn't point out where i said 'i care what fans think'. I was pointing out there is a reason why they say he's awful and only some Chelsea fans say he's great, tinted glasses - OFF please.

And what is your view exactly?, right down about 2000 words every post about bull shit?. Your scouting isn't even that accurate either, you said Gary Cahill is below average and would never make it in our team, but guess what. And if i can remember correctly you also slated David Wheater, who is actually a solid defender, he was awesome against us when we beat them 3-0, we couldn't score for ages because of him. Go on thinking your Graham Carr though and then insulting me about my opinion on Mikel, laughable. I love how you went on about it's Hazards and Mata's fault in the Atletico game, funny that who is the defensive midfielder there?. The defence was isolated from the midfield, it was a fucking joke, Falcao is the best striker in the world for me, you cannot give him that much space or he will punish you, he had acres of space, especially on his 2nd goal. No one could close him down because Mikel was no where to be seen, that's why we lost by a huge number, and Falcao should've scored 5 at least. It's a joke, positioning is awful, against Wigan last season Bertrand had to take the gamble of closing Diame down because Mikel was no where to be seen he was all the way up the field. He's way too slow, last season also against Valencia home it was a joke, midfield was running riots and he couldn't keep up with anyone, that Canales was having a field day with him. And not to mention pre season that MLS Team's 2nd goal, lmao where was Mikel there marking the man on the edge of the box?, this is against MLS players too. He doesn't have an aggresive bone in his body also, but what ever don't respect my argument just try and make fun of it, see who is laughing in the end.

Alright then Graham Carr, and Hazard and Mata are usually the only players who stick up field, i don't expect much work rate to come from them in the future. Mikel should be doing his job and he doesn't, he's had shit games so far besides the Newcastle games this season, 4 games, you can include pre season as well, when he couldn't even mark american footballers. But yeah go on go make another giant post full of bull shit.

Point out where i said i cared?. He plays because we have no other players, that's why he plays, he never used to play besides that. Even Romeu last season put in better consistent performances than Mikel ever has done in his whole time here at Chelsea.

Please just give over, sick of the stupid excuses, should never of signed him in the first place and should've gotten a better player. He never came back to help the defenders against Atletico, he played a HUGE part in that loss, Falcao would never of gotten that space if a DM came back and actually man marked him or even covered other defenders so they could close him down, the defenders where so isolated. But what are you going to do shove some stats in my space?, his great pass completion of passing a ball back to the defenders, his great tackle success because he rarely takes any risks or jumps into tackles. Fuck stats they never uncover the full story. There's a reason why most other clubs laugh at the fact we have still got Mikel in our team, yeah fair enough some idiots say Lukaku is a flop yet he's only 19 and are still on David Luiz's back because of a few mistakes, yet he's made up for them. But no one rates Mikel besides a few Chelsea fans, it's not that he's unappreciated or anyone notices the so called hard work he does as some say on here, it's the fact that he's a bad player.

So he's actually free transfer, get our German back!.

I'm angry that he didn't tell Porto's president that he wants to leave, and show a bit more ambition to join us. That's just the part of me what is spoilt though. Hulk is a top bloke, and it's rare you get that loyalty these days, his neice died not so long ago and Porto gave him all the support and time off they could, he will never lose that gratitude for them. Very nice bloke and very talented player, it's a shame he wont join us and he never will as Porto wanted too much money and it's not worth it. But i have huge respect for Hulk, and good luck to him in the future. Although he has signed with Zenit, it's better he didn't join any rival club at least, but he didn't make a scene for Porto so they had to accept less money.
