Great news, Mikel is better as back up for Matic atm.

A pivot of Romeu and Matic inspires more confidence than one with Mikel and Matic though, which can best be described as pointless.

For fuck sake another season with Mikel, can someone just put us out of our misery and bid for Mikel ??

[The only place to be 11,313]

Needs a full season playing somewhere which is a shame because it leaves us with Mikel who is unflushable proving hard to sell. Sets it up next year for a context between Romeu, Chalobah and possibly Loftus-Cheek for a spot in midfield.

Whatever happens his transfer value will probably increase by next summer at the very least.

Who ever gave Mikel that 5 year contract renewal needs to be found,

Assuming he stays away from injury and earns starting spot. Another Valencia loan and he'll most probably be sold cheap next summer (not that he did badly there, but was just desperately unlucky).

I feel bad for him, I really believed this was his year, too bad he had to be sacrificed

found him

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

found him

Hahaha its probably the only bad bit of business his done since taking over so I will let him pass on this one. But seriously we need to get rid of Mikel for the sake of his own career which has stagnated at 26,

He has to be one of the unluckiest players in the world with the cruciate ligament, then the injury just when he won a place at Valencia, then the changing of the manager while he was injured...etc.

If Loftus-Cheek and Baker keep progressing at a rapid level, Chalobah may not even get a look-in at Chelsea

Good luck for him. Hope he could get decent amount of games there.

Mikel is Matic's back up, we don't need to play him next to Matic unless somehow we find that Cesc, MVG and Ramires are out injured which is very, very unlikely.

Mikel is a better back up option than Romeu because he's ahead of him in his development - he's already the final product, whilst Romeu needs as many games as possible to aid his development. As it stands right now Mikel is also the better player IMO, Romeu is a bit overhyped on here.

At this point, Chelsea fans better hope that Matic, vanGinkel, Oscar and Fab all stay healthy. Jobi will never speed-up our build-up play.

I don't think Romeu is good enough under pressure, but Chelsa are still very thin on quality in center midfield.

This club needs rid of Mikel and Torres badly...... (Moses and Marin too).
