I like it. It is Mourinho who signed him, and he only played few games under his first regime, time have passed, Mikel was oustanding under Ancelotti and Di Matteo, less under other managers ( Villas-Boas, Benitez ), but still a player that contributes, a definetly squad player as he is no near Matic, or Essien in the past, or even Ballack.When you watche these 328 matches, you could possibly conclude that he is a good player, but the that the argument of "different managers played him so he isnt bad" is rather questionable.We never had a better central midfielder, it is as simple as that, from 2007 to 2013 we missed Makelele a lot, maybe too much.But that wasnt my plan in first place, I'm not here to criticize Mikel or to praise him, I just believe Mourinho could make Mikel a consistent performer and a better player, and he is doing that, his passing and mouvement are slightly better, the training methods of the boss are helping him, or maybe Fabregas, I dont know, but Mikel is changing his game a little bit, gained more pace in his head, plays quicker, and I asked if it isnt Mourinho-effect.Thats it.
