Mourinho blocked Mikel's transfer to #Besiktas at the 11th hour [after failing to land Pogba], agent Mesrun Izzet claims. #CFC (Dailystar)

Turkish agent Mesrun Izzet: "Besiktas initially agreed terms with #CFC & Mikel but Mourinho blocked the deal at the last minute" (Dailystar)

Of course he blocked it. We are already 1 senior CM short. Hopefully Romeu and Van Ginkel can have awesome seasons so the club brings them back and then Mikel can leave. I think that's the initial plan the club has also considering both Oriol and Marco are loaned to PL clubs.

Romeu's gone for good. We sold him to Southampton.

My bad. Alright, go Van Ginkel!

Van Ginkel has been invisible for Stoke so far. I watched his first three matches there and rarely have I seen a player, at any level really, so uninfluencial and uninvolved for his team. He hasn't been terrible or done any huge mistakes in particular, but he's just been completely invisible.

I heard he had a go as n10. Did he play DM?

Mostly DM. Tbf Stoke were bad in the matches I watched, except against Spuds but only after Marco had come off. They got a draw against Spurs and lost the other two against Liverpool and WBA.

When I play against shitty players - a lot worse than I - my passing is fantastic! Seriously, I can make the ball spin to you or from you... I can lob and hit any player anywhere in a 7x7 pitch...

Now as soon as I've got tighter marking on me and I have no time on the ball, all that beautiful passing goes down the drain. That's why in tight marking situations, I drop deeper to have more time on the ball, but my passing becomes bureaucratic - simple. When I was younger and quicker, I could still hold my own up front.

No I am not Mikel, but the tale is so very common that sometimes I think people here don't really play football, which is sad - it's a lot of fun to play.

Mikel would be Walsal's star player - highest paid and #10... Mikel would do well for many clubs and many leagues - just not Chelsea and not the EPL. Because even Epl smaller sides have much better players (eg Sotons victor).
