Kojo, take note. The author compared Mikel to YaYa Toure, who arguably is the best in the position. IMHO, Barca messed up by letting Yaya, who is much better than Busquets. BTW, notice the author chose YaYa instead of Tiote?

Statistical breakdown *League only Tackles Interceptions Pass completion (%) Mikel Arteta 4.6 2.4 93.8 John Obi Mikel 2.3 1.7 90.5 Michael Carrick 1.4 1.4 88.8 Mohamed Diame 3.6 1.1 84.1 Cheick Tiote 2.5 1.3 82.4 In the English Premier League this season, Arteta has averaged 4.6 tackles and 2.4 interceptions per game. To put this into perspective, that's a better total than players in his mould (Mikel and Carrick) and designated destroyers (Tiote and Diame.) With regard to pass completion, only Rio Ferdinand has a better percentage (94.3), and Arteta leads all midfielders in this category, surpassing the likes of Joe Allen, Leon Britton and Paul Scholes. hmmm....bro only one of the three stats show Tiote better than Mikel. Leave FIFA 12 or whatever playing alone. Its distorting your judgement

Napoli says it all my friend. That is the difference between AVB & RDM, plus we saw what happened last week. To each their own, but RDM has scoreboard over AVB.

Ok, I give you that, but Mikel>>>>>Tiote. You deal w/ that For all of the Good people on this board, I would like to extend an apology for my sillness in dealing w/ Kojo today.

That is how it is done son. Look I could show all I was showing that shit, cause fools like you were saying he was the Best ever. If I wanted to show that Da Messiah was a choke artist, I just bring up his low-lights vs CFC. Hey Busta, stop trying to quote me & get back on topic. You can even hate on Mikel if you want. It is his thread

Don't make me go Ashley Cole on you

You got me wrong. I said Ronaldinho & Zidane are better than Messi.

Are you sure about that homie??? On this play it appears to me Mikel is vicious OH btw, that is Tiote on the ground.

Maybe if you read my first post you would understand the reason why I created the poll.

Looks @ what is coming to America in 2016? Copa America!!! Fucking awesome...I can't wait for this to go down!!!

A nice box of MonteCristo Cuban Cigars. An Aston Martin DBS. Those are things that I would love

Bro read the last sentence of my post. I even typed it oh.....nevermind I see where you are coming from. You are basically guaranteeing that CFC will be play Los Rayados

You have to be a True Blue Member to participate in the ticket exchange on Viagogo. I am telling from experience.

Yes he is injured again. It was announced on the Pre-match News on the Club's website Marko Marin remains out for a second game with a minor groin complaint so Roberto Di Matteo picks from the same squad as at Spurs. Shakhtar boss Mircea Lucescu reports all his players fit and healty.

This Gentleman has my sentiments about manure If you ask, no I don't get tired of watching this clip or sharing it w/ other people. IMHO manure is like the fuckin' plague. Everyone jumps up & down when they show up to town, but sneer when Chelsea comes. Fuck manure!!!!

People on this board know I have a soft spot for Corinthians, but TBH Monterrey of Mexico could take them. They are a very solid club w/ a very knowledgeable coach. Timao will have a tuff task on their hands to knock this team off. Oh snap, If the ball bounces the right way, Chelsea will be taking on Monterrey.

It's sounds even better when you are in the Thousands of CFC fans signing that chant

Again, read the entire question. Is it worth it to win this Cup? There are people that feel that we shouldn't worry about this competition, if it prevents us from winning some other competitions like the League or FA Cup. Hey how about this chant? We are Champions of the World, We are Champions of the Worrrrrld...We are Champions of the World

Actually it was for Danny Boy's goal. Walker received the ball, but Mata hassled Walker & he gave it up like a lil' Girl. Mata streaks in from the right flank & crosses to a streakin' Danny Boy Stud.

So I took your advice & you know what? That play started w/ a Torres pass from the back to Mata making a run up the right flank. Mata passes over to Ramires, who does a rebona, but Walker intercepts. You already know the rest. So again, you prove my point. Torres was in the back so Danny Boy makes the run up top. Again, look at the third goal. Two players cover Torres for a reason. I am not so sure that they would cover Danny Boy the same way. I think a winning a Gold Boot in the last Euro helps Torres demand respect. Bro, I have no reason to argue w/ you. It's my opinion & you have you're own. I rather just cheer together for Chelsea. Hope we get all 3 points tonight, but truth be told, the match vs manure is the one we all want.

FYI: there is another meeting of CFC fans on the topic of a Fan's Trust immediately after the manure match. If you want to get involved, Please checkout the following web site.

I would recommend that you checkout hooters. They might have the game & they might not. Then again, they probably won't Couldn't hurt to try. I know here in Cali, the game is very popular so I can't see where you get off saying it isn't popular. I feel you don't know where to look. You can always goto the Chesea In Amercia site & look for a local supporter group where you live. You can check their Pub list & look for the section of the country you are in. Also you can look at this site for a pub anywhere on the planet. I will tell you first hand that CFC is WorldWide & the club is support in every part of the Globe. Chelsea FC promotes World Peace

Another thing that El Nino does is pass the ball. Not only does he makes passes, but freakin' great passes. Look again @ the 3 point lane match. There were some unbelievable passes coming from El Nino. Ok he doesn't score all the time, but the 3rd goal was due to his positioning. Look @ Mata's run. There was gaping hole in the spudz defense, due for their respect of El Nino. Not sure if Danny Boy Stud demands that type of respect yet.

I will shut up about Mikel, but checkout this article from last year (10/11 season), this writer got this right in pointing out what Mikel brings to CFC. Remember he started out when he was just a teenager & now is a first teamer. Dude has some flaws, but he really keeps the simple stupid. People fail to understand that, especially people that never put on a pair of boots. That is needed sometimes when the going gets rough & the challenges are flying in from everywhere.

If we do win this, what kind of chant will we hear @ the matches??? We will need to ditch the We know who We are chant...Champions of Europe (I do love this chant btw). I guess we can start trying to create one. BTW, I was in Japan last week & there are many Blues fans there that are ready for this go down. We have support WorldWide & not just at 3 point lane
