Mikel John Obi

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Who knew Mikel was the king of banter?

Best of luck to him tonight. Would be amazing if he manages to help the eagles get the gold!

49 minutes!

[Kieran. 6,317]

Pretty excited for this match tbh

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Well that was anti climactic.

I hope, at least, they manage to win the bronze. 

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Surprised no one mentioned this, but he won a Bronze medal with Nigeria in Rio.

Great achievement considering they nearly didn't make it there.

Plus, he played a huge part in that bronze medal game. Two direct assists and a goal after his shot. Well done!

Only watched the highlights for the bronze medal game, but he's always so influential for Nigeria. I think he feels like he has more responsibility when playing for Nigeria as everyone looks to him due to his experience at the highest level.

If he played like that for chels...

Guess one Mikel is more than enough of us ... Any one with the name Mikel should be a strict No-No ...

Lives to fight another season. [emoji1]

Give Mikel some respect, it's not like he is complaining about his role or like he is on big wages. He still played his part in the development of Chelsea in the Abramovich Era. There were players who were much worse than John Obi Mikel, not to mention that he was forced to play always out of position.

Mikel admits he paid his own money to save Nigeria's Olympics

Quote

John Obi Mikel has slammed the Nigeria Football Federation after he was forced to put up his own money to help his country achieve their remarkable bronze medal at Rio 2016. 

The Nigeria captain organised travel, paid for meals and booked training pitches while trying to physically and tactically prepare for games.

Fucking legend.

[Spike 12,049]

People give this fella far too much grief. He isn't world class but he is always grafting away and being a complete professional. He played like a nerves-of-steel champion when his father's life was in danger. An admirable servant that I wouldn't complain about staying for a few years longer.

I was convinced Obi would look like Morgan Freeman with dreads by the time he left Chelsea.
