Sir Mikel OBE

Mercifully taken off. Absolute shit today.

I'm always so amazed watching him play, even though I have seen him put in the exact same amazing performance dozens of times.

I guess today was kind of a big day for him. Not like he was playing before, but he has to be looking now. Preseason should be interesting.

BEAST!!!!

Coming off now....didnt like how he was trying to play through a leg injury...

You are aware Jo is like the leading scorer in the Libertadores right now? It just seems like he is slated because he isnt a big name like others. He is perfectly fine, and much better than overrated guys with huge endorsements like Pato right now. Has played a total of like 10 minutes and already has two goals too.

I liked what I saw here.

Valiant effort by mikel

Brilliant strike by forlan. Bring them back Mikel!

MIKEL YESSS!!!!!!!

Its like Mikel has never taken a set piece before

Mikel bringing out the champagne passing

This thread is going to explode when Mikel has another solid game for Nigeria in an hour

But its the confederations cup. If we are gonna keep Oceania as a confederation, then they have to be represented. They earned the right to be there no matter how shit they are compared to the rest of the teams there.

Is he gonna get the golden boot from this one match? Hes a legend if he does.

I had no doubt in my mind he would miss that. Welp...there goes his confidence.

Pretty cool move by Torres there.

Hat trick for m'lord.

50 million striker right thurr

GOAL IN 5 MINUTES!!!

Starts today vs Tahiti. Expect at least a goal today.

The gap between him and Thiago Silva is closing quickly.

Once again David Luiz proves the sky sports narrative wrong and proves ONCE AGAIN to be one of the most reliable and best CBs in the game. NOT FOR SALE.

His display against Spain from a play standpoint was expected. Spain are clearly the better side, the disappointing aspect was the fact that he showed almost none of the fight you would want from a striker costing as much as he will. You compare that to Suarez today and they were miles apart. Suarez had a terrible game too, but he fought. Hes an awful guy, but there is no doubt in anybodies mind that he would do anything to win. Cavani did not have even half of the fight Suarez showed. Of course its a useless tournament and whatever, but you are playing for a new club and contract. This is the last we'll see of you before the window opens in two weeks...you think it would mean more.

Its always weird to me watching him play for a side that is not us
