Michael Essien

[Phil Driver 503]

93% pass completion rate and offered much more than Mikel ever does and it can be taken for granted that his passing will have been more penetrating and quicker than Mikel and he reads the game much better ,better tackler ,more stamina and much tougher competitor ,he should be our back up to the established Rammy/Lampard pairing now . He may not be the player he was but is still our best back up by a long way .

Jose has given up on Mikel now and sent him shopping yesterday,he cant complain after his efforts? against Stoke and Steau and the exit door surely looms.

You said that a couple months ago then he ended back up in the team and I am sure he will play again soon. In fact I will not be surprised to see him start against Arsenal

was a disaster yesterday

When he got his yellow card that meant he was suspended for the Arsenal game he seemed really annoyed as if he was going to play some sort of part in it...warming the bench isn't playing a part Essi.

His not going to make the bench anyway what wrong with defensive midfielder and defense line back passing now a culture no dynamism on any single one "Mille" pass me the ball I will pass back game making hate him too but now they all do it.

The bison was shot dead in Madrid.

SUGGESTED,

moved out now!

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Put aside that he was probably the main culprit for both goals conceded, I just have one question:

How in the world has he picked up 5 YC this season? I didn't even know he's made 5 appearances!

He won't get the best seats at the game, that's why he was mad.

[Mouri_Matic 560]

He wouldn't even get into Fulham team atm let alone Chelsea. Can't believe Jose got him for Madrid last season.

Hope either Essien or Mikel leave Chelsea, we need stronger one!

Essien to leave Chelsea in January? Wouldn't be surprised if he did leave..

Galatasaray (Retirement home) instantly springs to mind...

Milan at the moment are in a very bad place so they could be desperate too. Can't see any of the other clubs still in the Champioins League having any more use to him than we do.
