I only judge Mikel by the mistakes he makes in the most important games and to be fair I have always said that whenever I have seen him play at the Bridge he has always performed below average. I don't have a personal vendetta against Mikel I just can't stand his lack lusture efforts to win the ball back for our team. When it comes to passing, I strongly believe that every single player in our team should be able to complete 9/10 ..10 yard passes. I would much rather see a Modric than a Mikel in our team alongside a good ball winning central midfielder. David Luiz and John Terry have a better long range passing game than Mikel.

Well done Skipper. You deserve to wear the crown!

I'm all for adding squad depth and versitility but Andre Schurlle doesn't float my boat. I'd ratherr just bring KDB back from loan and start using his two footed genius instead!

Ok fair point but you really feel Mikel does this well? I don't, players breeze past him like he is a statue far too often. His passing game is not even that good either. Maybe you can't make full blooded tackles anymore but just look at the goal we conceded against Juve when Mikel gave the ball away and then just half heartedly strolled towards the player with the ball. This kind of feable marking and attempt to win the ball back is seen in Mikels game far too often for my liking. Plus you can tackle without having to slide or go to ground, you jockey then use the x button.

I meant to say other than. Mikel isn't good enough. You could say Rami is a DM but he is far more useful to us as an attacking threat. We need to bring in a proper full blooded tackler who can pass.

My feelings exactly. I STOPPED reading straight after I had read the dribble that Mikel has been one of our most important players in the most successful period of our history. He is average at best , end of. People only hail him because he looks like he knows what he is doing in comparison to the other players we play in the DM role. Thats because we don't have any DM players so Mikel looks half decent but in all truth the clown can't tackle and is just pathetic when it comes to shielding a player away from goal.

Happy Birthday Geez!

Lets face it, things are not looking good but we are Chelsea FC and I truly believe that there's someyhing about our club. Call it spirit or call it luck but we find a way to hang in there and fight on and I really do think we will finish in the top 4 despite that challenging fixture list. KTBFFH!

You saucy fucker :-D

'He died the way he lived' ... Exactly why people hail him and others who stay real to the message they convey through their music. Wether you like it or not Toronto, Hip Hop was born in the poverty stricken streets of New York, The Bronx. It's the poverish history that made Hip Hop authentic and gave people who struggle in life something to relate to, an outlet of expression. When Pac hit the mic you felt the pain in his voice and the message was believable! I'm not saying therefore middle-class rappers like Drake can't possibly know how to make good music because they haven't come from a poor background but look at the current economical climate. Who the fuck can relate to Drakes shitty auto tune raps about being mega rich and driving expensive cars? I'm from a poor place so I personally prefer the Hip Hop that derrived from it's birthplace, the poor, multi cultural, violent streets in The Bronx not all these commercial company driven puppets.

Where the bloody hell is We Hate Scouse these days!?

Neymar really isn't worth all the hassel and controversy that surrounds him. Move on and let him become the next Robinho for all I care.

Oh I'm not too fussed about people criticising our players. It's nothing new and it certainly won't grow old any time soon. Kalou was fluffing clear cut chances in big moments for years. Moses has a terrible game against Southampton then muggs a few passes in todays game vs United and he is deemed the same ilk as Kalou, nonsense!!!!

Made Carrols second yesterday against WBA look easy. Another player I have seen taking some stick from peoole on this forum saying he isn't good enough to Play for us. If todays performance didn't prove that he is fit to wear the shirt then I guess we need a striker who plays like Falcao did against us in the UEFA Super cup in every game for people to be happy!

Yea I admit that was shit of him but he wasn't on for long, playing cold. He is a good finisher but I do agree that his end product is rather shady but to compare him with Kalou as insult like most people are doing at the moment is a little overreacting.

He isn't actually a winger though. Being a a striker your main attribute is to score goals and that he can do. He isn't a natural at crossing and playmaking. He is equipped to take players on and bang goals in.

People are overreacting here. Yes he has had a few shocking displays but before AFCON he was a beast for us and got the praise he deserved. A few bad displays then he isn't fit to wear our shirt. He isn't the best player in the world but a very useful squad player.

BluesChick ... !

I'm still baffled to why we left KDB out of our squad this season.

Reading some of the comments on here about Moses are fucking disgraceful. I'm more than pissed off about todays bullshit but as alway reading the comments in here during a loss are just pathetic!

No rudeness intended but I read the first paragraph and that was all I needed. Well written. :-D

Mourinho is coming back home at last. I don't even care if he isn't as successfull as he was first time around. I just want to see him back as our Special One. Geezer is a legend!

But that's all Frank had done in the first half deeerrrrr brain! :-D

You can't say it enought in my humble opinion but this really is the best Chelsea forums on planet Earth!!!

It's bad enough living in England let alone having a debate about how depressing it really is. England is one big grey cloud of misery. I am working my way to Australia. That's where it's at!
