mediator 2,026 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 We are swapping a backup HG player for a foreign one. I personally would prefer Song. Upgrade on Mikel, knows the league, will cost much less and is HG.P.S. Mikel isn't as bad going forward as you think. Watch him play for Nigeria and your opinion will change quickly. We play him as a DMF and instruct him to break up play instead of creating chances.Mikel isn't HG. Becoming an English citizen didn't make a HG one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAM09 7,069 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Mikel isn't HG. Becoming an English citizen didn't make a HG oneI thought I read somewhere in this forum that he was classified as HG. I guess I stand corrected, if that's incorrect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jype 6,398 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Been wanting Witsel at the club for some years now, gave up hope when he joined Zenit but would be great if it finally happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,187 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 He lost his chance to really glow when he fucked off to that shit league in Russia, look for the brighter stars and join a top rank club in Europe instead of settling for mediocrity.

It's a rare combination, his amazing defensive capabilities with a more than descent technique, just feel whenever I see him play that i'm watching a slowmotion replay of a game.Nevertheless Mou got the sloppyness out of hazard's game and imo brought Matic to a higher level, Witsel is the same rough diamond. Good signing if he ups his gameBad signing if he continues the way he's at zenit and the NT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stingray 9,441 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 May be too late for him to improve. I dont think he is tbh. He only plateau-ed (or how do you call it) last year. He did damage for the NT, he was the so regular (still is). He became a good disciplined player. So why would Mou want a good disciplined, reliable pivot player (Either the 6 or 8) who can do it, but hasnt had a chance to prove it (besides the NT). Besides, he can hold a ball like Chuck Norris can kill a guy. Plus he gives a very decent threat forward (he was one of the most talented amc's of the belgian squad). Shit changed once he killed Wasilewski's leg though........ http://youtu.be/_BB4gSvyc4IHe became much, much more carefull. Im sure Mou can get him to Matic level very quickly.

I haven't seen a whole lot of him, but he's never impressed me. Either way, doubt he goes to Chelsea. Seems like a liverpool signing tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unionjack 7,531 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Witsel is a good and talented player, but for me still not ready to move to a big club. 1 more season or perhaps 2 and he should be ready though.Wondered what your thoughts are of him now?
