I assure you many Nigerians who I know that still live in the country lament the fact he wasted so much time at Chelsea, so I'm not sure why you feel so confidently that so many people see him as an icon. An icon in the sense that he is a rich footballer, yes okay.

Look, yes he has done well for himself coming from where he did and that's fine. From a sporting point of view I am not impressed, and there are many that share the same point of view, whether you like it or not.

The guy prioritised money from the outset, and now he can practice bigmanship, which is what most of them aspire too. Well done to him.

The fact is we will never know what Obi Mikel could have become because he settled for far less than he should have. I cannot accept the idea that because he ended up bumming it at Chelsea that the performance at that tournament in 2005 was some sort of fluke. I will not accept that.

The real shame is we will never truly know because he put himslef in a bad situation at Chelsea who didn't really have a place for him in the team. At Man United at the time their midfield vacancies at least presented the opportunity for him to show and prove.

Yes, Mikel is a good guy, and I will never dispute that. From a purely footballing point of view though, he settled for far less than he should have. He could have even left Chelsea at around 26 or 27 and yet still remained playing that pathetic bit role of shoring up games as a basic DM.

Not good enough for me. Just not good enough. His mindset from the outset showed that he didn't really have the desire, by that whole shady move to Chelsea from Man U. This is the biggest issue for me. Good luck to him though, but he is certainly not one of our sporting heroes at all.

You guys suck.

You should be ashamed of yourself. You are no kind of ikon my friend.

You disgusting racist.

The state of Willaimson on that last goal man. Such a weak challenge for the header. Man ... we've had some really pathetic defenders over the years.

How irresponsible of chopey. Silly thing.

Gayle linked to Everton

Hmmm ...

You know when I saw us being linked with the likes of Callum Wilson it had me wondering if clubs in the prem were sniffing around Gayle. Only because someone like Wilson would not be joining us to not start every game.

Hope we don't have to deal with this issue.

How long is his contract with PSG?

 

He signed for them on a free so his contract is likely to be high. He's screwed himself over royally man. So annoying.

Contract until

30.06.2018

Really?! Okay, that's not too bad then. At least he was smart enough to not sign there for too long. Should be able to leave quite easily this summer then, as they will have to accept a lower fee with one year left.

YOU'RE WRONG! YOU'RE ALL WRONG!!!

Don't be ridiculous.

 

What did he contribute to any of those titles?

 

I hate it when people use that logic. It's stupid.

 

Chelsea fans don't care a damn for Obi Mikel, because he was a nothing player for them. Wasted his talent sitting on the bench.

 

Played 250 games for them like.

 

Passing backwards and sideways at the end of games. It was cringeworthy. He was a nothing player for them.

 

Chelsea fans on twitter seem to be full of praise mind. What do they know.

They're just being polite for goodness sake. I mean the guy sat on his arse and never complained, so what do they care. He was a nice mascot for them. In reality he did nothing.

As a Nigerian I am offended by what he ultimately was as a player. And it all started with him and his stupid agent chasing the money at Chelsea. He is a bum.

Can't believe people are trying to make out Obi Mikel was an important player for Chelsea. My goodness man

Are you serious? What a fantastic achievement that is. Well done sir. One man of the match. Brilliant.

He was a hugely promising young talent, and he did jack all with it. Was all down hill when he pulled that idiotic stunt to leave Man U to go to Chelsea. In hindsight it was a terrible move. Mourinho is an ass, and completely ruined him.

Obi Mikel on his way to China

What an utter rubbish career he ended up having. Bum.

Oh my God ... that is bloody amazing. Puel knows what he's all about too. Delicious.

Brilliant from Spurs. Fantastic young team and manager.

Bought direct from league one. Had been performing well at MK Dons for a while too. What were all the other scouts doing, don't recall that much competition for him for Spurs.

 

You heard his name a lot but no one really went for him for a while. At the time Spurs bought him it was only us that was mentioned as competition too.

Wonder if Spurs will now stick with this 3-4-3 themselves more regularly going forward.

Dele Alli is a stud.

Spurs are a heck of a physical side, but with good technical ability still.
