Hey someone who agrees with me.

I seriously think Mikel's game is simply too boring and simple for most and that's why they don't like/rate him.

People like flashy. This game is a perfect example of how that completely messes up the basic understanding of the game. Luiz has been terrible. 0 for 2 in long balls, giving the ball away carelessly, bad passing, horrible positioning. BUT people love flashy moments, the great pass, the back-heel whatever. and Luiz has a few of those. Mikel is not flashy but he positions himself beautifully and makes smart plays and that's never going to be popular.

when did I ever say mikel was.playing shut or that I don't like his game? everyone knows Luiz likes to go forward and so does lamps, therefore mikel adds that anchor in the pivot if Luiz goes forward.

I think you've just to to thank god for giving you the ability to understand football at an almost molecular level. Not everyone has that - like you say they like 'flashy'....they like shiny things.

Lets not get ahead of ourselves!

Mikel is a great player and deserves his new contract, but he is not an outstanding player. He gets the job done and isnt as bad as people make him, he is not world class though.

We should more than buy another option to compete with him, not a priority I must admit.

I don't believe in god. I just thank my football knowledge.

It wasn't aimed at you. TorontoChelsea mentioned Mikel's performance and I said something about it. I don't think you even mentioned Mikel in your post so it really didn't have anything to do with your post.
