Mikel John Obi

And as if "Mikel Lover" is a bad thing or the same as "Mikel Hater". He's a Chelsea player if you had forgotten

When you use reductive language like 'Mikel Hater' you lose any right to get all uppity about people using similarly simplistic terms.

Very constructive post, thank you very much for the important points you bring up

You' re welcome.

Yes, I do like Mikel. As a player I think he's underrated. I support all of our players and defend them when they are insulted and disrespected. I defended Kalou and Malouda when they were pictured as the sons of Satan himself by most Chelsea fans, still defend Victor Moses and Ramies and even defended Torres last season when he was being overly-criticized.

I won't apologize for defending Chelsea players.

What is it you are looking for here?A standing ovation? Nomination for sainthood? What/

And as if "Mikel Lover" is a bad thing or the same as "Mikel Hater".

You brought up the term 'Mikel hater'. Surely you see the irony.

He's a Chelsea player if you had forgotten

Thanks for the reminder. Seeing how he barely played last season I had quite forgotten.

Are you fucking kidding? He earns £75k pw for starters, and he's simply not good enough for Arsenal nor does he fit the profile they typically purchase, especially when they have Arteta and Flamini already there. They're interested in either Khedira (genuine top class) or Carvalho (young with massive potential). Mikel is not the player for them, but congratulations on trying.....don't look at this as a failure, simply a stepping stone to eventually being right about something.

This is pointless. At this stage your mostly just lying to yourself after I exposed your agenda.

I haven't mentioned 'real fans' once in this discussion. I've simply pointed out to you that there are posters on this forum who actually have links and personal relationships with people who have knowledge of what is going on at this (and other) clubs. That's how the real world works.

People develop these links over time, which is why people like Richard Keys (who has been a sports journo for 40 years) still gets insider knowledge despite being overseas still....I know you were confused about that when he revealed Courtois would be starting against Burnley.

Don't get all derisive and dismissive just because you don't want to accept these truths. It's just the way the world works and you might actually come to understand that one day. Hang in there kid

Translation: We fans who can go to the Bridge have mystical sources for information so you inferior international fans cannot argue with us!

And might I ask from what "loop" you got this 'information' from? Did Steve Holland tell you or was Jose himself?

Btw, I broke the Courtios "news" before Keys. I said I'm confident that Thibaut will start because it was pretty obvious that he will. So maybe you Stamford Bridge going fans should not argue with us international fans because we are obviously much more intelligent and better are deductions :D #PostLikeTOPTB

Essien was earning 100kpw. We sold him. How difficult is it for people tonunderstand that mikel is here cos JOSE wants him to be here. This is a jose squa and every player from christensen to JT, from DD to salah is his CHOICE. As is mikel.

What do you call people who make up shit like passports to serve an agenda of disrespecting a Chelsea player? Mikel conspiracy theorists?!

Wow, you come across as a very lovely, intelligent and respectable bloke. Good luck with your life

Not gonna repeat myself. You already know how you come across. Get help.

Hey Cholo and the only place. You're both freaking annoying, hows that for solving your endless arguments?

I actually agree But he has an incredible talent of getting replies out of me when others won't with his passive aggressive "holier than thou" posts.

I do apologize for any who has to read all this crap.

I don't post here much but I do lurk here every so often, and he does come across exactly like you said everytime I come across his posts.

Get that 'local fans are better than international fans' vibe from him.

Hah! I dont give a fuck if I watch on TV and live millions mile away from the bridge, he can sit there in the stadium with his pals and that wont make me a lesser fan.

[The only place to be 11,313]

What agenda is that?

I pointed out exactly why he wouldn't be a fit for Arsenal and you accuse me of lying? Fucking Keyboard warriors.

How about it's just inevitable that if you work in certain industries or know certain people that you're just going to hear stuff. That's the way 'socialising' works. I'm sure you're down with all the hot news in Lebanon.

You can twist my words to make it sound like I'm having a pop at fans around the world but I'm not. I'm simply pointing out that there are posters on here and other forums who will pick up information about the club in their everyday lives.

Because Essien actually wanted to leave and Milan put a comparable package together.

You simply fail to understand that if people have a contract and don't want to leave then they are hard to move on. That's not just true for football but for ANY job.

Here's a question. Have you ever had any experience of a workplace where people have contracts? Simple answer - yes or no?

What do you call people who make up shit like passports to serve an agenda of disrespecting a Chelsea player? Mikel conspiracy theorists?!

Except it's not made up shit. You think it is but you are simply wrong. But don't worry about it.

I've got a great deal of respect for supporters who contribute to the club. I've never said any different.

I've got massive respect for those supporters who kept the club alive when we were in danger of going under. I've also got a lot of respect for supporters who spend their hard-earned money and travel thousands of miles to see the club they love. They make me PROUD to be a Chelsea supporter.

But that's got FUCK ALL to do with this discussion. I'm just pointing out that there are many supporters who hear inside information about this club (and others) because they grew up with people who now work at the club, went to uni with people who now work at the club, socialise with people who either work at the club or know people who work at the club, know people who work with professional footballers.

That's just a fucking fact of life but Choulo decided to turn this into a 'TOPTB doesn't like international supporters' despite that fact that I've had more interactions with Chelsea supporters from around the world than he EVER will.

But that's his thing. It's cute.

Just like last night - did mvg want to leave? No. Did it stop us from trying to loan him to milan? No.

Does want tp leave? NO. is it preventing us to trying to tell him to fuck off? NO.

how difficult is it to understand this? Serioualy man.how difficult is it to understand that if JOSE MOURINHO dint wabt mikel at chelsea, he would not have been here.

[The only place to be 11,313]

But the reason he isn't going because HE DOESN'T FUCKING WANT TO. How on Earth do you not get that?

The deal was in place but because VAN GINKEL didn't want to leave and because VAN GINKEL has a contract, we can't do shit. You're literally becoming a parody of yourself. We had similar discussions about Lukaku (a player who WANTED to leave before you run headlong into that low beam) and you were wrong then. You're wrong here.

Mvg did not fucking want to leave yet we tried to loan him cos he was FUCKING SURPLUS TO REQUIREMENTS. mikel was not. How the fucking fuck don't u get this simple a thing!!! What has jose or our boarddone to fucking indicate that they don't want mikrl here.

How the fuck can u not understanf this simple a thing.

Oh wait... now I understand, jose wants hazard, oscar, schurrle, willian, natic , jt, gc, azpi to leave but since THEY DONT WANT TO LEAVE, they are still here, right?

And tell me how I was wrong about lukaku? I had said that jose wanted him to stay which was pretty obvious since lukaku was not sold as soon as the window started. It was lukaku who dint want to stay. Don't put words in my mouth and give the argument your own spin.

Also, dude, let tit be.you have no argument here except fpr your precious conspiracy theories from people u trust (). Its their word against jose's actions.

Mikel's agent made it perfectly clear he wouldn't accept a move at this time.

Towing the Choulo line.

Mikel's agent is the word of god now??

Is it the same agent who last year during confeds was saying that mikel will surely leave chelsea and has interest from several big clubs?? Is it the same guy?

Like I said, u got nothing. Stop embarassing yourself.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Jose like Mikel. Jose want him to stay. Mikel want to stay. No clubs interested to buy Mikel.

End of, he is staying this season.

[DYC. 7,542]

All this time and Obi Mikel can actually SPRINT!?!?

That sprint was cherry on top of this absolute bizzare match.
