The thing is, Mikel was a creative player at youth level. He still had that when he played for Chelsea but simply parked it up and played this simple and unattractive but very important part for the club to succeed. United and Ferguson fought for him because of his creative abilities. But he simply transformed to a defensive player that was disciplined and didn't stray to join attack often just to maintain the balance and shape of the team. He sacrificed his creative abilities allowing others to shine. That was why he was underated by many who didn't understand his value. But the Coaches understood his importance and always selected him when fit.

Chelsea Legend. This guy was there for the club whenever he was called upon even through all the harsh criticism (a lot unfair) he got from a some of the fans. He was more of an offensive talent as a young player but quickly settled into that DM role at the club without any protest for being played in the wrong position, a position he quickly took over and made his own and had his best game in my opinion in the finals against Bayern with the team missing SOOO MANY key defensive players that day, he was one among many that stepped up big.

Thank you very much. I still grudge Jose Mourinho,for converting Mikel's play to a DM. That was a good reason for him, to sign out and join another club, I guess he was desperate to keep the job because he chose Chelsea over Man UTD, he didn't want to wind up not having a top club to play for. His natural skill, was sacrificed by Mourinho's ego tripping attitude. He won one over MAN UNITED'S gaffer, was all he meant for Jose.

Mikel was an incredible player in his Chelsea days. Kanteh is the short & quicker/faster version of Mikel Obi. He was basically intercepting almost every ball in his territory and that gave license to our attacking players to focus more on the attacking phase of the game than defending. Most people expected him to be regularly amongst goal scorers like the Lamps, Bisons or Ballacks which was unfair to him. That's why he's criminally underrated.

It is pretty insane how underrated he was during his spell at Chelsea. He made it look so easy that it felt like he was slowing the team down, when in actual fact it was balance he added that got us through many games and added 3 points, If we look at it today? We have talented Midfield but no balance, Caicedo and Enzo dont know who they are in this current set up. Perhaps Lavia will be able to provide that balance to allow Caicedo and Enzo to find themselves and play at their best. But Shout out to Mikel, my eyes were truly opened at the 2012 Finals of the Champions League, i hadnt seen some one so cool, calm and collected, no fear no panic against a Bayern Team that was in all likelihood the best well run team in Europe at the time, Ribery & Robben were tearing teams apart.
