20/21
Rice: 35 successful tackles (59% success rate); 1.1 successful tackles per game in 32 games. 4.5 duels won (58%), 3.1 ground duels won (57%).

Bissouma: 68 successful tackles (65% success rate); 1.9 successful tackles per game in 36 games. 6.3 duels won (59%), 5.3 ground duels won (58%).


21/22
Rice: 42 successful tackles (53% success rate); 1.17 successful tackles per game in 36 games. 5.1 duels won (58%), 3.9 ground duels won (58%)

Bissouma : 49 successful tackles (64% success rate); 1.89 successful tackles per game in 26 games. 5.6 duels won (59%), 5.0 ground duels won (62%).


Last two seasons combined

Rice: 84 clearances (1.23 per game)
Bissouma: 111 clearances (1.8 per game)


Not saying Bissouma is better. But he isn't better than Rice in any way?

Guy rest

BlueMann:


Don't remember the Ndidi to Man U rumours that trended for quite some time?

Anyways, his injuries have probably played a part. You probably won't have that many suitors for someone who didn't even start up to half of games last season (18 starts, 19 apps ).

Excuses.

andrewbaba44:


Rodri has been a boss from his Villarreal days to ATM if you watched him

Both Rodri and Fabinho has hustled their way to the top ,both didn’t just wake up one morning and see themselves at Liverpool and city

Too bad we won’t see rice under pep for now ,kalvin Phillips the Yorkshire Pirlo has taken that spot

You can’t sign Rice as a backup DM.

Well grealish wasn’t signed as a backup ,we all saw what happened

If rice no play well for top team dem go bench am .

Guy rest

I don rest my case o my chief

andrewbaba44:


Apart from Ajax ,was Olise a regular at any big club

I watched Olise at the super eagles ,but as a DM I will take mikel over him any day anytime

Oliseh was a better DM, but I think Mikel was better player in general because he had offensive capabilities that Oliseh didn't have. .

Playing for Nigeria, Oliseh had more impact. Club career, Mikel is untouchable..

hensben:
Oliseh was ok but not in Mikel’s level.

Go and seek pennance for this blasphemy

They had to chase Mikel out of DM with Onazi and bring Sunday Mba to hustle for the snail before Super Eagles midfield could even look sensible and tough to play against

Ibime:


Thats false na cos Abramovic came 5 years after Kanu

you didn't get..

People who were still in between arsenal and Chelsea before he came, made full decision to fully join Chelsea after Abrahamovic bought Chelsea.

andrewbaba44:

Bro you can’t sign Declan Rice as a backup DM.

Lol, you can’t.

In between for 5 years? It did not take me 3 months to discount the idea of joining Arsenal because of Kanu sha

Kanu was already halfway chased out of Arsenal before Roman came.

Joezinho:

Okay

I think you have analyzed this well

I said people..

I didn't say me.

AnfieldFan:


You use speed enter, I been d arrange some things

Lol... Na small Vex I take type that thing. Immediately I see am, I go site update to see whether we don officialise the Jesus signing only to still see kini kan kini kan in the site. How you expect say I no go use speed enter

donstan18:

Bro you can’t sign Declan Rice as a backup DM.

Lol, you can’t.

You won’t buy an expensive player as a backup normally ,but not that he can’t be a backup

Joezinho:


Oliseh was a better DM, but I think Mikel was better player in general because he had offensive capabilities that Oliseh didn't have. .

Oliseh had more offensive capabilities than Mikel, leave that one.

Oliseh over the top to Yekini, it's a goal.

AFCON 1994, Oliseh dropped 4 assists in 6 games.

raumdeuter:


I told guys here that Upamecano was trash and Konate was better only that he was more injury prone

I remember this your quote that time. Funny how a whole Bayern fell for that.

Media hype na bad thing. They can sell you stones for £50m, literally

hensben:
Are you now saying Oliseh was a better footballer than Mikel? Nor be ment be that. Mikel is better than Oliseh.

Oliseh is far better than Mikel as a DM, Mikel lacks confidence going forward as a Chelsea player but if it Nigeria game, he will be the one that want to play all the corners, all the free kicks even pks self but as a Chelsea player he hardly cross the center line that's why he had just only one goal in over 240 epl matches, well as Jodera has said that's my choice I will pick Oliseh over him again and again

Play Oliseh, Bench Mikel sell Ndidi

timbros:
Play one. Bench one. Bin one.

Purely as DM. Number 4.

Mikel is the greatest and most decorated Nigerian player ever.


By club and national achievements, major trophies and success.

Mikel>>>> All of them.

Most people are clouded with recency bias and CV of Mikel's u-20. Person wey with all him talent I felt he just used only 10% in his career

The only thing Mikel is just better than Oliseh is trophies. Let's even come naija. What was the spectacular thing he even dis in naija. I remember how he was called Mikel "Slow-bie" in 2014 world cup and 2013 afcon naim I dey hear say him be boss for naija?

Just dey carry Chelsea CV dey deceive guys

Good you said it’s your choice. Oliseh will not even see shirt in that Chelsea squad.

Can Oliseh even make it in that Chelsea squad. Who chased Oliseh from super eagles. Na that goal against Spain still Dey everybody memory.

Mikel won afcon for naija and was in team of the tournament, was second best player after Messi at the under 20 wc. The fact that Mou made him play conservative football for Chelsea doesn’t mean he wasn’t good in attacking third.Mikel Dominated his last qualifiers for super eagles before he retired. I’m not sure you even watch super eagles game after 2002 wc.

Name one former Chelsea player you’ve ever supported here against other players.

Just one.

Mikel was the better footballer and would suit current modern DM than Oliseh.

Jodera:
Jesus for 50m?

Jesus hasn't been sold yet but we don dey see 50m attached to him

You also saw Kalvin Philips in the screenshot ryt? Common sense should tell you it's all the deals rumoured to be completed soon.

hensben:

Please who chased Oliseh from super eagles?

AnfieldFan:


I asked, are the transfers this window only or this window and the last?
You can answer for him...

This window and the winter transfer last season which included Ferran Torres fes. Same way you guys said it was Coutinho money who left in January you spent on Van Dijk In August. Tit for tat

Just compare prime Hazard and Chukuwueze, you’ll see Assnal fans making case for Chukwueze that he’s better.

I’ve never see anti-Chelsea fans as bitter over Chelsea matters as Assnal fans.

Still pains them that we’ve won UCL twice when they’ve won none? Or could it be because most of their players that joined Chelsea excelled and achieved a lot? Who knows.

After today, observe their opinions here whenever Chelsea players start getting compared to other players.

What is the proof that he's good in attacking 3rd?

U-20 shebi?

How many goals and assist again did he have in Chelsea in his dozen years after especially after Mou departure?

Jodera:
Please who Oliseh from super eagles?

Ibime said Mikel was chased from DM by Onazi which is false. Mikel was a dynamic midfield, ie he can play DM, CM and attacking midfielder unlike Oliseh. Mikel was the only Nigeria footballer that played professionally in fifa confederation cup.
