KingMEXX: No, yu should do the shutting up. Before the arrival of Fernandinho, Yaya was a DM just like Mikel and he was more prolific than Mikel. For crying out loud, Mikel ain't even popular in London, England when compared to Yaya. If yu were online on Twitter when Chelsea played Arsenal, yu would have seen the insults heaped on him for playing clumsily especially the tackle he made on Arteta. Last season UCl was the worst, the dude kept giving the ball away to the opposition and it cost us at some point. I read an article written by one Brit Tabloid and the author described Mikel as one of the worst Central Midfielders in England. Listen to commentaries and yu would hear the same. Yu obviously don't watch football to have quoted me only to write this trash. Don't get me started with yu No commentator or soccer analyst in the whole of uk and Europe that will agree that mikel is better than yaya. Mikel can't even command a 1st team shirt. Our problem in Nigeria is that sentiment, tribe and unwarranted patriotism has covered our thoughts to make the correct decisions . As a Nigerian, we want mikel to win but truthfully is he the best in Africa? |

safarigirl: I won't say anything concerning Mikel's first team shirt cuz that matter has been overflogged already.Yu seem knowledgeable in football but your patriotism overshadows your sense of judgement. I really believe that the progress of this our little discussion must centre on Work rate. If Mikel was that all powerful and complete player, why doesn't he start often just like Yaya does for City? At present, Ramires is favoured over Mikel, even Lampard. That Mikel got a full 90mins playing time in the Fa cup was because Lamps was injured and Mou wanted to rest some key players and so Rami had to play Hazards wing. Another question, Why was Luiz which we know is a master of errors chosen over Mikel in same position against Liverpool?? Mikel is just a utility to Chelsea and is only used when Chelsea have a good lead and need to add extra backing to the defence. On the National level, Mikel feels like a boss but we all know there are better players than him in the team. Emenike is one, even Shola Ameobi was better than Mikel in our friendly with Italy. Mikel is good but there isn't any spectacular thing about his style of play, no fireworks. he is just an average player. Why didn't Mikel win the BBC African player of the year if he was so good? Has Mikel ever won Man of the Match in Any Chelsea match?? A lot of questions I would need yu to answer |

And I don't think you guys understand what we mean. Who is Africa's best player? Yaya Toure. Who was Africa's best player IN 2013? Mikel obi. Daz all |

I don't know how Mikel can win it over Toure (based on performance and contribution to both club and country)? I'll be surprised if he did. |

safarigirl: like I said, I won't dabble into the first team shirt issue because it seems like you're the only one on NL the past week who still hasn't heard that NOBODY HAS A STARTING SHIRT IN CHELSEA except Cech.Sharp girl. Yu choose to answer what yu want and neglect the other ones yu cannot. Anyway its pointless arguing, on that day we would see who will win it. A part of me, the patriotic part wants Mikel to win but the other part of me feels Yaya should deservedly win. He has worked hard for it. |

A part of me, the patriotic part wants Mikel to win but the other part of me feels Yaya should deservedly win. He has worked hard for it. Football is not all about being rugged and running from post to post. Mmikel is a very intelligent player and a good match reader according to J.M. He admitted that he is not fast but he knows ao to keep the fastest player at bay. He may not be as flamboyant as yaya but his silent work on the pitch is appreciated by those who trully know his value. Think of the influence of one man on the pitch determining the pace of a match played by 22 players. That can onlu be Mikel. You mentioned earlier that he was benched during the liverpool match, get your facts right, he had a flu but had to be used after lampard got injured. |

2013 Glo CAF Award: Analysts favour Mikel on january 08, 2014 at 1:00 am in sports With 24 hours to the next Glo CAf Awards, football analysts have been making different permutations with clear-cut justifications on who deserves to wear the crown of African Player of the Year for 2013. Majority of the opinions however favour Nigerian International and Chelsea Midfielder, John Mikel Obi to win the Award. The top three nominees for the 2013 Glo CAF Footballer of the year Award was announced last week by Africa’s highest football authority, the Confederation of African Football (CAF). The top three lists released includes Nigeria’s Mikel Obi, Cote D’Ivoire’s Yaya Toure and his country mate, Didier Drogba of Galasaray. Drogba plies his trade with Turkish Club, Galatasaray while, Toure, the defending champion plays for Manchester City. Mikel Obi is a regular feature for Chelsea FC of London. According to Mohammed Aderibigbe of Precise Sports, Mikel Obi holds the ace having won the African Cup of Nations with the Super Eagles and Europa Cup with Chlesea FC of London. The same view was corroborated by Sam Smith of Sports Degrees who opined that Mikel deserves the Award due to his exploits with Chelsea FC and the Super Eagles, adding that if Mikel succeeds, Nigeria will be returning to the list of countries producing Glo Caf Award winners since 1999 when Kanu Nwankwo won the Award. Chris Abraham, a sports pundit however differs in opinion. He is tipping Yahaya Toure for the Award. According to him “Yaya will nick it again, he is the leading contender and the fact that he recently won the BBC African Player of the Year makes him a clear favourite”. However Sports 24, an on-line Sports Outfit also tipped Mikel Obi outrightly. “ The award goes to Mikel, a regular in Chelsea line up, European? Champions League winner, Europa Cup winner and African Cup of Nations Champion, what else? ” Who wears the crown? All roads lead to the Convention Centre, Eko Hotel and Suites, Lagos on 9th January, 2014 where the king will be crowned. |

Mikel won all de trophies in 2013, Yaya toure played wey better than him in 2013, looks like the case of Wesley sneijder & Lionel Messi in 2010. Who really deserve the award! Is it the STAR performer or someone that is fortunate to be in de team that eventually wins? Pls judge well. |
Re: Mikel To Be Flown To GLO/CAF Awards In Chelsea Jet by Nobody: 7:43am On Jan 09, 2014 |
We are talking about 2013 here. Not this year. Mikel was the best in 2013. And we are also taking about CAF football of the year. Not English Premier League footballer of the year. Jose Mourinho rotates the squad, even if messi nd cr7 come to chelsea, they will be bench warmer for some time. World Class players like Mata,luiz,cole etc are MORE Bench Warmers than mikel. So stop replin rubbish when you don't watch football matches. You only watch goals on Highlight. that is why u ar sopportin yaya toure. I may not sopport mikel in winning in 2014. But, Enyeama on my mind 2 Likes |

He will be flown with private jet to come and watch Yaya Toure collect the award.... If Mikel wins the award, then African football is Worthless (Don't get me wrong..He is a fantastic player but not in the class of Yaya).... |
