WHAT A PLAYER Obi Mikel is . Just wonderful, just like Makalele, when he leave( ala real Madrid) then will we appreciate him. People will say Busquet is a wonderful player but in truth if he was here he would be treated just like mikel. In simple terms we never appreciate things we have rather envy things that are not ours even though we have the best of the two.

In the past people would say Gerrard and lampard were better players than Xavi , but not now. if someone said who is important to Chelsea between lampard and mikel I would say mikel, in context with the team his function is more important and appreciated by his teammates than anyone else.

P.S. I can already see it happening to the next generation at Chelsea. People appreciating juan mata and Hazard, yet fail to see the IMPORTANTS of Oscar, the man I believe will be our biggest star in the future.

Now you are comparing Mikel to Makelele. Have some mercy on others man.

Last season, we won 43.7% of our games when Mikel started vs 67.5% of the games when he did not. I am sure we will miss him for that extra 23.8%

Last season, we lost 34.3% of our games when Mikel started vs 13.5% of the games when he did not. I am sure we will miss him when we don't lose that extra 20.8% of those games.

Last season we scored 1.68 goals per game when Mikel started vs 2.51 goals per game when he did not start. I am sure we will miss him when we score those extra 0.83 goals per game.

Last season we conceded 1.53 goals per game when Mikel started vs 0.89 goals per game when he did not start. I am sure we will wonder how to concede those extra 0.64 goals per game without Mikel.

I'm quite mystified why so many want Mikel gone, but want to keep Essien. Should be the other way round.

Essien may have lost some of his strength and speed but he will always put his heart into performance and work dilligently, not start complaining like Mikel that he feels too precious to compete in a tournament or a so and so tournament is beneath his abilities.

Whos to say De Rossi- Mikel in the pivot won't work?? Not tht it's gonna happen, but doesn't mean it won't work.

The speed of that double pivot will be slower than continental drift.

mikel, with more effort/concentration and the willingness to more creatively use his passing ability would be phenomenal in any DM position.

[bushman 2,043]

Mikel & his creativity ? What a joke.

His days at Chelsea should be numbered.

Of course, rumors should not be taken seriously. Wait & see, what will happen.

GTFO already, you can take Ba and Moses and Omeruo with you!

MIKEL TAKING THE LEAD IN THIS FORUM.

MIKEL TAKING THE LEAD IN THIS FORUM.

Alright, calm down. We're just debating football, there's no need for fanaticism from either side.

[wj818 25]

That would be VERY interesting.

Glad that you think so too. Gives me assurance that i'm not crazy.

Yeah, mentioned this in the DDR thread a few days/weeks ago... I would love to see this actually. If De Rossi's intensity rubbed over to Mikel it would actually be a dominant midfield, especially as it freed Mikel from his shackles.

It could work very well I think.

Yeah it would defo take the shackles of Mikel. Not only that but the pivot could turn into an actual pivot meaning, there wont be any specific role for the two, one could cover for the other while one advances forward or advances to pressurize the opponent.

The speed of that double pivot will be slower than continental drift.

lol, but hey continental drifts are unstoppable.

Bloody racist!

I'm not a bloody racist I have many darkskinned friends, Ijust don't like them for their football skills. I like many black footballers. I understand that you're from Nigeria, which are moses omeruo and mikel. and thats fine I don't fucking care if they are black white yellow or red. I just fucking hate them because they're not goood enough footballers for me to play in chelsea shirts so , yeah GTFO to all of them!

How can you "Hate" someone for footballing reasons? I dislike a lot of footballers, but I can't hate anyone because of his footballing ability, let alone players on my team..

Anyway, please tone it down a bit. You are of course entitled to your opinion but we would appreciate it if you expressed it in a less offensive language.

Galatasaray's assistant manager Hasan Sas has come out and said that they never bid for John Obi Mikel (http://tr.eurosport.com/futbol/super-lig/2012-2013/super-lig-hasan-sas-melo-yu-sectik_sto3844013/story.shtml)

Trabzonspor boss Ibrahim has already said that there is not an iota of truth in the reports linking them with John Obi Mikel.

So as I was saying earlier.

The club have not had the chance to say NO to any clubs because there has not been any concrete offer for Mikel. Only PR stunts from his agent and that Nigerian journalist Colin Udoh.

A year on the bench awaits John Obi Mikel.

Well I said the same as well but that doesn't mean Mikel's going to be on the bench for a year or that it was an instigated PR stunt. This doesn't prove that.

I'm happy he's staying. Interested to see if Mourinho can continue his project on him and would love to see him play next to a true DM like De Rossi, which would give him more freedom to use his strongest assets correctly.

Thats what I meant, his strongest assets: squatting on the bench

I don't want to win the Europa League. It would be a big disappointment for me. I don't want my players to feel the Europa League is our competition.

Obi said pretty much the same thing but was absolutely flamed
