    Mikel's discipline (personally and career), consistency and politeness should be emulated by all African young men. He is a true role model.

    Ooooh yeah much greatings from kenya, this man is a true blue legend I remember the first 3 seasons at Stamford bridge he used to get red card he would play 3 games the forth one direct red card but with all those shortcoming he became one of the greatest midfielder in the clubs history.

    • @princegeorge13
      @princegeorge13 2 роки тому +1

      Yes, he bathed in red cards, in 2 seasons he had 4 red cards which was too much for any player, but from there he completely matured to go almost all thru without a red card, infact there were spells where he would go 12 to 16 matches without a yellow card... That was incredible for a player playing in his position

However, l've always wondered if he can also speak lbo and how well, if he can. Anyone out there with the answer?

      Nobody killed his game. Mourinho asking him to be a DM isn’t an excuse. Mikel chose not to push forward. Ramirez pushed forward. Mikel refused to watch his old clips. First leg against Inter Milan away he bossed the midfield going forward likewise confederations cup. He chose to be careful and not make mistakes still got 4 red cards. Don’t blame mourinho but Mikel himself. Did you know that DD was a defender converted to a striker?
