Wishlist Wesley Sneijder

Thats it. Everyone, its been solved. The reason we only won one league title and no Champions League's in the last while is because of John Obi Mikel. He bribbed Overbro, he made JT slip. He was secrectly playing for United and winning them matches while making us play shite.

:D :D You are evil

Dont need to bitch.

The fact he played at least 20 matches in past seasons doesn't mean he is a superb mid.

He is good to be used as sub, as a squad player.

Mikel is not the future of Chelsea nor our midfielder maestro, as I read it here. He is not sublime or awesome.

In layman's term, why is Mikel Obi not good enough for Chelsea (starting 11)

Why ?

Classless player.

We need more creative and classy players like Sneijder.

Did he really only start 10 in 06/07?

in all comps that year made 24 starts and 17 from the bench ...bear in mind he was 19 ...can't recall anyone that age making that many appearances

for us since Ray Wilkins

[Henrique 9,133]

League appearances only 10, and he completed only 3 of them.

Check for yourself.

can't believe people don't rate Mikel

I've said it many times, Essien is not a holding midfielder, he's a B2B, Mikel is easily the best (and only) DM we have.

^read those 2 articles if you can be bothered, they explain how good and under rated he really is. People are so quick to complain how we always buy the finished article, here we have a player that we bought with potential (albeit we misused him a bit) but he's turned out to be an excellent player and we're telling him to FO.

Lol.. we have gone way too off-topic!

correct mate the mikel fan club took over last night! More talk today in some of the rags about us taking the lead in the race for sniejder.

I'd accept that i must say. Essien aint the same as he was between 05 & 08 and Malouda has never been consistent. I'd say that's a good deal to be honest and i'd take it.

Exactly. Ramires can do the job Essien does even better IMO, he's less disciplined, yes, but he offers more of a consistent attacking threat. Plus he is far younger and can develop into a better player. Mikel is a better DM than Essien is, which means he is the odd one out.

We NEED creative midfielders, the only one we have is Benayoun since we sold Cole and Deco.

If you put it that way, it does sound like a good deal indeed. I just hope we won't sell-sell-sell, get a manager, rush a few signings while missing out on bargains and go blindly back into the premiership roller coaster

[Clevemayer 764]

we have two problems in our midfield

1st an ageing and chroncal injured Lampsy

2nd an out of form Essien who keeps on standing on the pitch while mikel and Rammires are far better

@Henrique

so its mikel intresting... don't know why ppl dont rate him this is unbeliveable rubbish, you know our late takeing down to the wire in the leage was because we won all 5 matches with him back on the field in a row after taeking 10 pts from eleven or even less the month before when he had his injury?

you know guus playing Mikel AWAY at Camp Nou against barcelona when he kept xavi and inijesta at bay single handed?

Mikel right now is one of the finest DMs in this world and who don't rate him because he dont scores or because hes calm and cool on the ball is out of his mind...

sry this mikel rubbis is going on since... uhm... since he came over here...

Mikel ist 24 and he will be the worlds best DM in 3 Years Time, mark my words... he will equal maka and will be even better, because maka was nowhere near as good with his foot ant technique was Mikel is...

nough said

the only two who should leave are Lamps or Essien and Lamps is a pure class Legend of its own... so as hard as its to take, it must be Essien if anybody leaves...

[ulsterchelsea 3,221]

anyway back to sneijder then. . .

"Mikel better than Essien"

:541:

Mikel is a freaking CONE. Cannot do anything in a world class quality, Wake Up allready!!

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Wake up and smell the coffee - Essien is ruined by his injury.
