ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 At the age of 23 he was the regular starter of a double winning team in the toughest league of the world.Ill give you that he was good that year, in fact he particularly impressed me then more than any other time but that was the exception imo.

neel 257 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Ill give you that he was good that year, in fact he particularly impressed me then more than any other time but that was the exception imo.He did that in last season. He again started good from this season. Why can't he get the trust from the fans of his own club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldo 868 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Comparing Maka to Mikel is hardly a fair comparison. Worlds apartMaka was 30 when he came to Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lionsden 4,689 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 We really need to keep Essien. Give him another season. Our midfield has no speed or strength without him there!Speed-RamiresStrength- mikelTell me another lie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neel 257 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Like Zolayes clarified earlier that Mikel is the only closer option. No need to compare Mikel to Maka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zolayes 14,489 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Maka was also the best ever at his particular position.Agree ,,,he invented it ,,,but Mikel is proving a very good imitator and has years to improve ..He also has qualities Maka hadnt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't do anything to distinguish himself now. In the role he plays, I consider that a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These experienced managers must have recognized something you fail to see in mikel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the role he plays, I consider that a good thing.I felt last season he was most consistent member ofour disappointing midfield. It was too much to expect his contribution and the efforts of thepraiseworthy Ramirez to make up for the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 I retract my Mikel comment earlier on further reflection.Mikel is one of the best holding midfield players in the league at the moment. Most consistent, improved and reliable players we've had in recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikel's role demands he be anonymous. If he does something that stands out, it's probably because he made a costly mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
