That's not saying a whole lot considering Fabregas was complete shit.

[OneMoSalah 8,821]

Fuck me Mikel didn't even start today, came into one of the most one sided matches we've ever been involved in for however long and is STILL getting slated for wasting a 'squad place'. Typical... wankers. At least he wouldn't of been out of position as much as Fabregas or Matic both were, actually surprised he didn't start but it would of taken a lot more than Mikel starting to stop the demolishing we got today.

hahahahahhaha... this is hilarious. poor guy is on the bench, and gets slated.

i tell u something. put mikel and matic as our 2 DMs yesterday. rambo on the wing. and we probably would have got a draw. atleast we would not have been embarassed.

If Mikel played and performed as badly as Fabregas did yesterday there would have been 30 pages worth of comments in here damning his contribution.

Atleast Mikel wouldn´t have looked so clueless at defending.

and rightfully so, because it's a trend Mikel follows every single game, and not a trend of Cesc's.

How long can a player be bad before it is a trend?

I'd wait for 6 or 7 really unspectacular performances in a row, or clustered closely together at least, before saying its the norm for that player's ability to be his trend.

Less than that many games and its just a dip in form to me, like Cesc has when he plays shite for 2 or 3 games in a row. Mikel, Ramires, and others, are consistently downright 'bad' for plenty games in a row. They've proven they cannot be consistent top players, full stop.

exactly. its been 8 and a half months of "poor performances".

atleast mikel consistently puts in a 6/10 or 7/10 performances.

Mikel would have slowed down midfield even further and ruined any build up play we had left. When will we learn that Matic-Mikel-Cesc will never work and never has?

[Blue Armour 4,352]

Mikel getting criticized for not playing is funny, I admit, but tbh... just like stated in the post above, I can guarantee that we would have had even less possession then we had against City yesterday if Mikel was playing along with Rambo and Matic.

And while Mikel might have shown, at least 90% of the time, more positional awareness, a few lapses in his concentration would have negated any of that.

who is talking about even playing cesc against a team that is not pub level.

The real problem is Obi Mikel being helpless to Chelsea FC's bench!

His ability wasn't useful in this situation but we still need him to park the bus.

He's a good sub for defense situation and He's happy with this role that was good for us

If he really want to be a first squad he won't be stay this long.

We still need people like this to fight in the long season and when we in December he'll

Be useful or even in the situation that Matic got ban or injure he'll be the best choice in DMC role

Parking bus is not working by Obi Mikel with three ageing (30+) DF

He is going to retire here at this rate.
