Mickael2: Stop acting as if you can not comprehend a very simple and well laid out reason why Mikel is a Legend. Multiple tourneys at Club level both Domestic and European. Longevity at a high level. Then making a major impact domestically. And yes, Mascherano is a Legend. Do you want me to break it down for you? 4 Likes |

TheGoodJoe: that year the midfield was mainly Kroos-Modric-James with Kroos as the Dmf/shield totally for a whole season, I don't know why you are saying sometimes. Meanwhile even the season he played as a shield he was still nominated, your point is? |

Mickael2: Look at the person who is talking highlights. I watched Okocha regularly 90 minutes. Watched some of his best games without highlights. Okocha is not a pacy player. Okocha relies on tricks to get past players. Not speed. 5 Likes |

Mickael2: Comprehend. Longevity. He was not a regular shield for a long period. Even in that season he was not 100% a shield. Mikel was. For a decade. The point is too simple. |

Joebie: I am.. Maybe he should change his doctor... Try some other country doctor... We all remember when Mikel had an injury in China... After treating him for weeks they just need to flew him down to Chelsea for more medical care... Maybe their doctor ain't doing something right... I pray his leg comes harder than POP... Like steel self |

What is the difference between pacy and fast? Pacy is more of like a player who relies on his speed but a fast player is a player who has the speed although he may not use it unless the situation calls for it. Okocha was fast but he relies more on skills Gerrit? TheGoodJoe: |

Mickael2: Mascherano was brilliant at Liverpool and a brilliant shield during a nice time and when they clinched the Champions League. Moved to Barcelona, and despite in an unfamiliar role, reigned in another trophy filled time. For Argentina was a Regular for them in when they reached the Copa America finals. Then had a brilliant World Cup performance, being one of their best players and reaching the final. Mascherano, Legend Certified. 1 Like |

Mickael2: Wasn't "FAMOUS"??!!!!!! Does "Famous " now v a different meaning which I don't know. why do u guys like antagonising him? OK I think it's high time u people stopped this Mikel argument. the guy x a chelsea legend so nobody's opinion cam change that. I mean comparing Yaya at barca to Mikel at Chelsea. remove Man City era from Yaya's career and the rest is average. but unless u remove chelsea era from Mikel's career u can't render him average cuz he still has the AFCON & the FIFA recognition. 2nd behind Messi no b beans abeg. if he were white u guys disputing him wouldn't be doing that, referring him to people like Pinto?? that useless goalkeeper. he was long at barca coz they really had no need for a 2nd goalkeeper during that period values had little to do as number 1. Mikel x synonymous to Chelsea many know him for his exploits in both the GWG jersey and the Blue shirt 5 Likes |

Mickael2: As I said, Mikel’s style is not flamboyant and gets overlooked. You do not see him running and panting like a tiger on the field and he gets overlooked. But, to the team, he was reliable and key to their trophy reign. He must not get nominated before his pivotal role deserves respect. Even though he did not get the nomination, his longevity in the role certifies him. Especially with the team winning loads of trophy. Simple. Gerrit? 3 Likes 1 Share |

Danycrusoe: you said if you remove his Man City era then he has nothing. Well he has the champions league for Barca and an Afcon for CIV, so his own Afcon is different from Mikel's own? 2 Likes |

Mickael2: Mascherano has been in Barcelona for about Seven years and won this: Barcelona La Liga: 2010–11, 2012–13, 2014–15, 2015–16 Copa del Rey: 2011–12, 2014–15, 2015–16, 2016–17 Supercopa de España: 2011, 2013, 2016 UEFA Champions League: 2010–11, 2014–15 UEFA Super Cup: 2011, 2015 FIFA Club World Cup: 2011, 2015 And you want us to believe he is not a Legend at Barcelona.

Mickael2: Excuse me are there just 11 world class player playing every year? there are many exceptional players who miss out of the FIFA 11 and dat doesn't devalue their talents and qualities most of the times the trophy winning teams like BARCA and Madrid dominates the fifa 11 and say bayern but that doesn't mean legends don't exist in other parts of Europe and elsewhere. if u use ur logic then people like Giggs isn't a legend cuz he never played a major international tourney abi? remember unknown players from Saudi and Honduras players do make the World cup. 7 Likes |

TheGoodJoe: should I show you Pinto's trophy cabinet as well? Winning a lot of trophies with the team as a regular does not make you a legend. During that run, there were times when he was on the bench for Puyol, on the bench for Busquets(yes Busq played as the CB sometimes), on the bench for Batra etc etc, so he was a valuable part of the team but he wasn't irreplaceable. Remove Busquets from Barcelona and you have won the game, that is a legend |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 11:01pm On Sep 30, 2017 |
Danycrusoe: Thank you for your exceptional point. Even though Giggs did not cross over to do it on the International stage, his longevity which spans almost two decades raises his status to legendary because Giggs did it for so long at a very high level. Thanks man. 5 Likes |

Danycrusoe: who said anything about international tourney again? Christ! And I am not complaining that he never made the FIFA XI but he never even made the list of nominees which includes close to 50-70 players, that is not so great |
