CHOULO19 24,332 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Another excellent performance by Mikel (bar that terrible back pass). He was often left alone against 2 or 3 QPR midfielders, but his strength and ability to keep the ball were spectacular. Muzchap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Severinb 309 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 The back pass was really bad! He makes a couple of really bad mistakes every season! He has been playing ok would like to see romeu for him soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 12,049 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Best DM in the league so far? LOLList five that are better and five reasons for each why they are better. And don't forget players like Yaya Touré and Cheick Tioté don't count as they are B2B midfielders and not pure DMs.Just curious to see who you think is better.

Spike 12,049 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Well that's a cop out...Look who is speaking. Over my dead body those two are DMs. Sure they defend alot but they sure as hell aren't DMs. Makelele was a DM, Touré is a B2B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike 12,049 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Yaya Touré at Barcelona played as a defensive midfielder.He isn't at Barcelona now is he? Ruud Van Nistelrooy was a midfielder when he debuted at Den Bosch, and what position is he famous for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzchap 8,966 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Think he is playing better - just struggling with Lampard.Thought his best game was with Meireles, buts that's no longer an option.Time o pair him with Romeu and see how that works out, as not working for Lamps...

FL8 4 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I've the same feelings, we should give Mikel Romeu pair a chance, if current one not work good enough... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rising Sun 711 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I dont rate Mikel highly. I should state that first.Just realised, that ever since any player has joined Chelsea after the Roman Era, there has always been some form of Interest from other clubs for almost all our starters, EXCEPT FOR MIKEL.I wonder why.I really think only our supporters(not all) rate him that well.Tell me how pathetic i am.

I said at the beginning of my post that i dont rate Mikel Highly. Cech must be shit too? Am i missing something here? Some sort of inference?It works differently with GK's . Most Big Clubs have long terms solutions for their GK's.Anyhow, your reply was not in any way constructive, so i will refrain from providing a constructive reply. Ill 'Skip' it.

Ill 'Skip' it.You may not rate Mikel but he has obviously been rated by every Chelsea manager over the last six years since he has averaged over 40games a season ... I suppose you will find this irrelevant and not constructive as it doesnt agree with your spurious opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
