John Obo Mikel, IS a Chelsea legend. Largely unappreciated player. He did all the donkey work in the team's engine.

Great insight from Mikel. The interviewer is obviously biased towards Potter. Probably didn't watch the games week in week out. Potter was completely lost and clearly out of his depth. No one is questioning his ability as a coach, rather his ability to manage a dressing room full of big egos. Which was clearly lacking.
@amishbhagat4110

I definitely question his ability as a coach and as a manager. He was found wanting. No one expected miracles with this team, but they expected a level of competitiveness far beyond what we saw. Obi is right. The lack of leaders has been a problem for ages.

Thank you Mikel. Your analysis about managing a team on action is very very important. Managers need to awake their players. Managers need to be vibrant and emotional during a game. That is a mentality of winning. Lampard doesn't have this quality which is highly needed. Hope he learns from his past mistakes. Think of Pep., Klopp, Mourinho, Conte, the guy in Juventus. These are classic coaches. They do not want to take nonsense but business for business. They only want to win for the club. Younger coaches should learn from them!

Potter was so unlucky to come in at the time he did. Massive transformation in the club, 54646 first team players, non stop injuries and also we have had the worst luck you could possibly have. Not to mention the hundreds of chances we created. Potter is responsible for the chances, players are responsible for scoring. Granted he wasn’t amazing and the job prob came a bit too soon for him, but anyone with eyes and a brain can see that no matter the manager, this group of players are nothing short of a disgrace to the badge.

In the past, we had guys like Cech, J.T, Lamps & Didier and even the other big names that joined in came with huge personality & it was all the good for the team..guys like: A.C, Ballack..later on Mikel, Cahill they all held their own. Azpi is a true proper leader..the players love and respect him..d issue now is that he isn't getting game time..which must have been tough on him. Thiago as well, we are blessed to have him. My Chelsea best player this season.
