The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 It's clear you don't like Mikel, we get it.No, he just thinks that every DM has to be aggressive and run around like a headless chicken before he's good. I wouldn't be surprised if he rated Parker from Spurs ahead of Mikel. zolayes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another fool who thinks he's one of Wengers scouts.Parker is better than Mikel, Mikel is too poor off the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People can have opinions different from yours. You're being the ignorant one insulting everyone, trying to have snide digs at everyone just because they don't agree with what you think is your "god-like" opinion. I can't even be bothered debating with you why I think Mikel is better than Parker as it's clear you're just going to insult, + this is the Kakuta thread anyway.And again, how is it ignorant logic when you've pretty much confirmed that you do rate Parker ahead of Mikel? Contradicting yourself hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kojo 4,676 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 So you're saying it's bad logic that i rate Parker over Mikel. Then you say everyone has opinions, and I'm contradicting myself?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you say everyone has opinions, and I'm contradicting myself?.Mention anywhere in my post where I said it's bad logic.Anyway, I've posted quite a detailed analysis of Mikel in his thread so if you want to take the debate further then please continue on that thread.

Jase 43,479 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2188095/Gael-Kakuta-wants-leave-Chelsea-Marseille-keen.html?ito=feeds-newsxmlFrench midfielder Gael Kakuta says he wants to leave Chelsea with Marseille keen to sign him.The French club are keen to sign the 21-year-old as a replacement for Andre Ayew who could leave the club. Kakuta told L'Equipe: 'My decision is final. This is an important time in my career. It’s better for me to leave the club (Chelsea) and find one where I could play more matches. I need to play.'The midfielder joined Dijon on loan last season and believes a return to France would benefit him.He added: 'In hindsight, I think the Ligue 1 will do me good. Marseille are one that I like. In France, Marseille is up there with Lille and Lyon, two of three clubs that I’m interested in most.‘I’m not worried about Marseille. With the players they have, the club is not finished. In the coming months, the club will start to shine.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slam Dunk 1,442 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Seems as though it's the only option for him now. Whether through the fault of the club (constant changing of managers/different systems etc), or through fault of his own (his attitude whilst on loan etc), it's a shame that he never got the opportunity to show what he could do in a blue shirt. A mature decision by him. He's still got huge potential, and i'd tip him to flourish at a club like Marseille. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if he's trying too hard to impress or what but he doesn't seem calm and compose enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xPetrCechx 13,570 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 And to think that few years ago we could get a transfer ban because of him...and we even didn't give him an opportunity here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jype 6,398 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 So he's off to Marseille then? Maybe somehow related to the Azpilicueta deal?If Kakuta leaves on a permanent basis instead of a loan, I hope we take a lesson from Barca and try to include some sneaky buy-back clause to the contract so that we can try buying him back if he suddenly flourishes when given a proper opportunity and starts to realize his potential which we all know is still there.

But is it really that "easy" to just sneak in a buy-back clause. Well, we should atleast get a dips on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 It's a shame, but with Marin, Hazard, Mata & Piazon ahead of him (all 4 quite young too) it would be harder for him to breakthrough now. It's for the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin_3d 1,140 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 And the Kakuta "Messi" (according to TX) is gone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax 9,219 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Best for everyone concerned. Kakuta gets his minutes and the development his career desperately needs, we get to sweeten the Azpi deal and cash strapped OM get a promising youngster that can still mature into a good player in the future for next to nothing.It's a shame the guy hasn't turned out to be worth all the trouble it cost us. zolayes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 He has still 3 years left on his contract, so we should finally receive a reasonable fee for a player from our Youth System. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
