udemzyudex: So, because politicians are bad, we should condone badness? Moreover, we are not talking about protests, but criticism. I criticize politicians failing in their duties. There is no need to be sentimental when someone is serving poorly. I am am an auditor. If I fail in my duties, a lot of people will be affected and I should expect and accept criticisms. Mikel Obi partied and missed trainings in his earliest seasons in Chelsea and was almost sacked if not for his father flying in to beg. Still, Mikel barely took training seriously. Mourinho did not destroy Mikel. Mikel destroyed himself. In fact, Mikel has Mourinho to thank for his stay in Chelsea. Other coaches would have sacked him for his lack of seriousness and constant partying. Mikel is also known for selecting matches, especially when it comes to Nigeria. Siasia wanted him on the 2008 Olympics football team, but Mikel declined. The same thing happened recently when he kept giving Rohr excuses. This is a nonsense he can never try with a coach like Westahof. That is why Oliseh gave Ahmed Musa the captain's band rather than Mikel. Mikel lacks commitments to country. |

luiscarter: Oga, don't mention IQ and money making in the same sentence. Anyone can make money. The fact that money is the ultimate ambition for most Nigerians including yourself should not he a yardstick to judge others. He was invited to camp not based on his bank balance and viewers did not tune in yestetday to see his financial assets but his sporting performance. That is the basis of this thread. And if you understand how short a sporting career is you will realise just how fleeting their so called wealth is. Top players do evetything to prolong their careers by performance simply because of what you seem to like and prefer.... money. Mikel knows this and that is why he has unretired from the national team quite a few times. 1 Like 1 Share |

OGHENAOGIE: Don't be stupid. Messi and Mikel were the two best players in that competition and coming off that competition, the world was expecting much from Mikel. We all remember the struggles of Manchester United and Chelsea over him, including court injunctions. Go and read about what Mourinho said about Mikel when Chelsea eventually won the rights to him. Even Messi did not get so much buzz. As for legends, Mikel does not come close to the first 10 even among the midfielders that we have had. 1 Like |

OGHENAOGIE: That is history. Sports is about present form. Present form wins trophies except we are in Egypt for exhibition. And on the balance yesterday he wasn't fit for the first team. If he played on, the match will have been drawn at best and calculators will be out. |

OGHENAOGIE: The only reasonable mention so far. Nigerians are more emotional when they speak than factual Mikel had a bad day on the pitch which some best players do have at times,but it does not ake away the fact that Mikel is one of the best players of his generation in Africa and Nigerian in particular. Just one good performance from him again and see his traducers hailing him to high heaven in their hypocritical manner. 1 Like 1 Share |
