Excellent tribute to an excellent young player. Can't wait to see him at a 100% of his abilities. Also looking forward to his performances in 2010 under the Nigerian jersey (ACN and WC).
mikel hasnt materialized to aything under chelsea.. he contiues to be overshadowed by the likes of essien and if he stays there...his career could be over in a flash..
had he gotten the much needed grooming from alex, he'd have been better off..
talent no doubt, but like his predecessor, mikel is full of wrong choices..
Really? Shouldn't u be looking closer to home? Because Anderson & Nani look more mediocre to me while Mikel seems to be holding his own against a star-studded squad.
vannereveilar.... where is united in the league this year? and where is chelsea.. mikel has also played every game he has been available for... hows your side doing in the fa cup?
WHERE IS CHELSEA IN THE LEAGUE AND WHERE IS UNITED ISNT UNITED AT THE TOP of the TABLE LIKE ALWAYS AT THIS PERIOD only title chelsea will win this year is FA CUP LOL lol even mourinho is laughing at chelsea his made a speech at pressconfe. and i laughed so hard..he said They (Chelsea) looked forward, I looked forward, They moved on, I moved on, I keeped winning important things, they keeped winning.... something... They won the FA cup.
hed be rotting on the bench at your overrated club in favour of overrated shitters like darren fletcher.. mikel is 20 times the player he is and he made the right choice in playing for us :)
lol mourinho quote : They (Chelsea) looked forward, I looked forward, They moved on, I moved on, I keeped winning important things, they keeped winning.... something... They won the FA cup. HAHAHAHHA and this year its the same chelsea only got one title left FA CUP
this vid sucked...didn't show anything except the one play where he started off that drogba chip...and for the dude talking about spreading the ball around, if you notice on a couple, they didn't even show if the pass connected or not...and you can spray the ball like that too little guy...if you learn how to look up before and after you get the ball...big woop.
I've now come to the new conclusion that John is essentially Chelsea's Quarterback because of the way he spreads the play up the field and down the flanks. The only problem I have with him is that he needs to impose himself more in games and chip in with a couple more goals
how many goals for Nigeria with all the attack............everybody blame Mikel in chelsea that he is poor and he still plays.....whats the secret...u dont have to score to justify ur position in a team...just stick to the game strategy and do ur job well............
makelele scored twice or something in the chelsea shirt, mikel is taking his role as a defence-minded player. he can still be damn good without scoring goals.
@TSRF yeah he can, but he doesn't.. deco, lampard, essien and ballack are all more offensive than mikel, so he takes the defencerole. and no one has put any pressure on him to score goals in chelsea, we have other players for that.
mikel is a very good player who will walk into any team in the world the only part of his agme he has to ork on is to stop playing safe and express himself on the pitch
all ya haters, even with the likes of robben, makalele, deco, LAMPARD, ballack all all the stars u got mikel still got more than enough playing time, 3 different managers, all used him very well, pricks can u think and ask why he has all this playing time even with all the different managers and star players. makalele was sent away, robben discarded,shun wright philips surplus to requirements, why not mikel??? cos he is quality, raw talent, and a rare breed of midfielder..
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
hahaha 16 million for this piece of monkey shit. ferguson must of been laughing all the way to the bank 4 the 12 mill he got from u pricks. worst midfielder in the prem.
hahaha funny you should choose to laugh you silly faggot. anderson the next ronaldinho? ahahahhaha. what a fuckin retard. rooney the next pele?? oh my god you stupid motherfuckers really are clueless goats. tevez for 32million? nani for 20 million??? oh my god...go hump your mother's dildo shaped head you glory hunting pussy.
ferguson must be singing lil wayne's song "a milli" every single day.."a million here, a million there." hahahahahha
You are an ignorant and a punk fuck who know shiet about football. This kid is 21 years old and he is playing great lately. He has gained in maturity and is one of the most active player on the chelsea roster. Funny that only worthless idiot on youtube talk shiet when great managers like mourinho and scolari are keeping him. Eat a dick fucker!
u just mad cause he is not a man united player and evryone is saying he is one of the best defensive midfl in the EPL so maybe u need to get ur facts right fool
I think Mikel is getting better & having more confident himself now compare with when Avram Grant was there. THis season, i foreseen Mikel displayin and performin better in holding midfield. Watchout fot him, no doubt. God help him he will be the star of this season 2008/2009.
kwamaster, the guys you just mentioned are not defensive midfielders ....so there is still a possibility that mikel may get some playing time come next season..
To me after analysing his game he resembles a bit of Vieira, Carrick & Fabregas. He should not be pigeonholed as a DM but more in Essien's postion where he is allowed to get forward.
Lets see what Chelsea does this summer. What midfielders will they bring in? Who will they sell? Who will be the coach? Mikel should consider all these factors before making a long term decision at Chelsea.
i completely agree...how long is his contract? if chelsea doesnt make the proper accomodations for him, he will need to search elsewhere...im sure there are other teams that will love to have him...however his tendecy to get red cards will be a big problem...Man City, Newcastle, and Tottenham seem to big decent clubs that are looking to due some big spending and rebuilding this summer...I'm looking for an infiltration of the "Big 4"...the top 4 are getting annoying to me
u guys need to calm down...Mikel will get playing time. Grant just started with the team and doesnt have that good flexibility of picking players like Mourinho did. im sure Mikel will get playing time. especially nxt season
2 bad grants is sacked...2 bad scolari picked up deco...2 bad scolari is aiming at quaresma, robinho, and ronaldinho...hmmm yea looks like mikel is REALLY gonna get playing time...
2 bad for you that Mikel is STILL getting playing time with new coach, deco, bosingwa added to the 3 other world class midfielders (essien, lamps & ballack)... and if scolari buys robinho, too bad for u Mikel will continue to get playing time. why? b/c he is quality and on his way towards being one of the best in the business. stop hating and appreciate!
Mikel needs to reconsider his long term future at Chelsea if they will not afford him the opportunity to play some central midfield (as opposed to purely defensive midfield) role next season.
This young boy is so good it`s only one ting missing he just need more goals then he will be one of the best midfielder in the world try to make more of Obi Mikel it was good ...
He is totally ruined by grant and scolari. He can be much better if he can be coached by Mourinho
