Can't blame him though, it's a job I'd do as well. Chelsea FC is not a home for the aged. We doesn't need benchwarmer and bus-parker! He is not inside the future plan of Conte! quickpassnmove 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a player is performing better than Mikel they will start ahead..and vise versa A player like chalobah won't get the minutes to impress, if mikel is eating them up. You could say the same with ivanovic, Oscar ect... Chelsea has never been a meritocracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iggy Doonican 4,186 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Mikel is like the final guest at a party doesn't matter how many hints you give them they just won't leave.

Mikel only has a year left on his contract at the club and not to mention he'sΒ on big wages, which I'm pretty sure is a stumbling block for most clubs interested in his services so the transfer fee will need to be pretty small for anyone to pull the trigger on it.

Thats 2 good points. So we either take a ridiculously low bid. Β Tell Mikel hes not going to get time and advise him to take a wage cut, Let his contract run out and get a freebie and let him train with the youth. Or we renew his contrtract for 4 years and we guarantee him a starting place, hmmmm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley Williams cost 11mΒ£ and he's 32. Big wages ? He signed his contract in 2012, during those 4 years wages went up massively. If this offer is real they're having a laugh. Mikel is 29, not 35. Any Premier League team would pay 12-15mΒ£. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
