He has lots of luck in football carreer, he is not even an average player..

jnrbayano:

They do even more. Ask Taye Taiwo and his twin. They have a 10yr age difference between them.

Also ask Julis Aghaghowa.

hmm...ok o. Goodmorning [

leggo: Safarigirl claimed he is better than yaya o

doesn't she know that the difference between Yaya Toure and Mikel is akin to the distance between Sokoto and Akwa-Ibom when travelling by foot

Cecediva: hmm...ok o. Goodmorning [

Good morning to you.

It's not that people like me expect much from him though. It's normal for people of his mindset that after investing so much money into the luxurious bus transportation business in Nigeria, nothing much matter to them. Mikel is a business man, he's only playing football for money, and not for the passion or the interest of the nation. It's obvious of him & very typical.

tsolz84: You think only africans are age-cheats?please look at chelsea's new 25 yr old striker

lol... diego costa real age should be around 30yrs. South americans and africans do cheat on dia age

If he hadn't moved to chelsea-he would have still been a wonderful attacking mid fielder. Chelsea killed his game by turning him to a defensive mid fielder. In d national team he is confused on whether to move forward or defend-what a waste of talent!

metorichmond: Yes he is overrated, mikel killed is own career with his own hand..... meanwhile brothers n sisters today is ma bthday, kindly help me thank the Lord for adding another year to maa years. HBD TO ME.

Its my birthday also. Happy birthday to u birthday mate. Lets forget mikel and enjoy d day. much love

the truth is;age is gradually telling on mikel;i rememba P-square saying some yrs back how they played football with their childhood friend-"mikelis Obillis"..and those dudes re 33yrs..do the math pls

Cecediva: lol... diego costa real age should be around 30yrs. South americans and africans do cheat on dia age

Paretomaster:

U are right, he choose money over long term development, SAF would have transform him into a world class player.

C big fat lie o. thesame thing wud probably happen if he'd gone 2 man u instead. he could as well b playing 4 leicester city fc by now. abi we no dey c how man u dey sell dem players weh don wash up to small small clubs? IMO, he should b thankful for being signed by a club like chelsea who had always had faith in him since day one

You are right bro;he's one of the luckiest footballer of this era!!

Edusouls: He has lots of luck in football carreer, he is not even an average player..

Of course he is overrated. His impact was not felt at all through out the tournament. He played as if he wasn't a world-acclaimed player. He's just overrated period

tsolz84: the truth is;age is gradually telling on mikel;i rememba P-square saying some yrs back how they played football with their childhood friend-"mikelis Obillis"..and those dudes re 33yrs..do the math pls

Exactly...

Mikel is worst than a snail,when he gets back to chelsea he should continue his bench warming,nonsense.

OP, am so sorry, but your question is irrelevant cos the World cup has said it all about the Snail, that France vs Naija match finally killed it, it showed Mikel does nothing when Onazi got injured, it was so clear General Onazi was missing, now you see reason why he seats on the bench, how do you expect someone like this to bench Oscar?, I swear Babatunde is even better than Mikel, a mildfielder with O-shots, O-tackle, O- passing ability, I could go on and on.

eph12: Very overrated. I just hate him

What a comment!i just hate him rubbish your post.Pls learn to be civic in your write up.Although I agree with you that the guy was a flop at the world cup but did you know Keshi can think otherwise because he played the whole 90mins of all matches.There is need for us to ask Keshi may he is a flop or not.

bamishow: Mikel is nothing but a flop.....his days are numbered @CFC

How about ronaldo, spain, countries and player have bad games. it is nothing new, it is the support that they need non of you were saying this in afcon and cofed, so you shouldn't say it now.

He is slow but still a good player. U can't take dt away from him

abdulkayus:
u never sabi anything. U wil be shock to ur bone marrow wen u hear abt their real age. Imagin someone like Onazi claiming 21 years or Taye Taiwo clamin 27 or even our current U 17 worldcup winner Musa Muhammad clamin 16, u too think am now.

16yrs= ss1
17yrs= ss2
18yrs= ss3
How is Musa 16yrs?

Mikels development is like Pharell's growth

jude d writer: If he hadn't moved to chelsea-he would have still been a wonderful attacking mid fielder. Chelsea killed his game by turning him to a defensive mid fielder. In d national team he is confused on whether to move forward or defend-what a waste of talent!

if he cant adapt to style of play then, he shouldnt call himself a professional player, yaya toure had played as CD, DMF, CMF AND AMF, he excel in all, mikel was stil young then and mou feel with his height and strenght he can become a world best DMF, MOU goal was to build him that area to become best since makele is old. if i should count how many players they have converted from their natural wing to what their coaches want of them you will bow and they did well and become best in that particular position their coaches ask of them..

too much overrated,despite say i be #blues4life

Mikel was manageable in the past.But now,he has totally declined. He has Onazi to be grateful to for it was he.who spared his blushes & covered up for him.

It pisses me off seeing ballers like Messi & Ronaldo fighting & struggling for the ball,playing their hearts out and on watching our brother,all he does is jog and shield the ball.
From Who ? Evil forces ??

Mikel's days in football are numbered if he doesn't up his game as there isnt any room for him in the Chelsea team.

hensben: as for me, mikel is overrated, you know, our players do excel at under 17 and 20 because they are playing with real under age meanwhile, they themselves are overage for the tournament(i.e, they are stronger) but after those stage, they face their real peer group and fade out as a player
back to mikel, he was lucky to have a good football agent(danny shittu), who hyped him to stardom.

Danny shittu is not his agent. Danny Shittu is/was a nigerian defender. Mikel's agent is John Shittu

Rajosh: Danny shittu is not his agent. Danny Shittu is/was a nigerian defender. Mikel's agent is John Shittu

my bad, i know we have a defender called shittu so it was really confusing to me which one is danny or john so i have to pick one to make my point, thank you though.

yep yep yep. As of now, that is.

Dont get me wrong. The guy is talented but it either he is confused or just plain lazy.

He has the power to become one of the world's best midfielders but i guess he is ok

with where he is. too bad...

I'm trying so hard to forget this guy, and there you are bringing his dead Ar*se up

Honestly, mikel una totally fall my hand oo

Mikel is rubbish. Most times I get the feeling he is on a personal mission to set the world record on slow time reaction.
But while we are sitting here slanging him off, he's in an exclusive presidential suite sipping something expensive and bangging the living day light out if his blonde Russian girlfriend. Life ain't fair

koredelomo: Mikel has just got lots of hits here and there as far as his performance in the ongoning wold cup in brazil is concerned. To me his performance is well below average for a player of his status.
He really showed us his not the kinda player we think he is, going back to chelsea and standing his ground will take a lot to achive,based on his performance lately.

. Yes op mikel is d exact defination of mikel slobi.only if mr morinho start him next season I'll no d nids hlp frm tb joshua

tsolz84: Mikelis Obilis..smh..he ended his career the very day he moved to chelsea..and to think that some chelsea fans were screaming "robbery" when he lost the african's best to yaya toure..lol..

what did Yaya played in worldcup ?

A "Mikel" is defined as the process/act of instigating sluggishness into a person or an organisation...

We have 3 types of Mikel :
1. "No Goal" Mikel: A goal is a target set by someone for greater achievements... A no goal mikel is clueless, incompetent and lacks the instinct to achieve greater things.

2. Lacklustre Mikel: This is the Major type of Mikel which can be found in the tropical region of west africa... It lacks determination and most times, susceptible to wayward performance... A good example of this Mikel is #JOHNOBI

3. *add yours*
