The John Obi Mikel Goal Scoring Thread

Featured Replies

My opinion on you is not based off merely 3 posts. Almost everything you say is like nails on a chalk board.

 

 

Ill add you on ignore and we'll not have to discuss it any further. <br /><br />Please no one quote him again

 

some people simply cannot take being wrong. you can't back up your opinion so you are running away. 

 

good. 

 

i am delighted that i will not have to deal with any of your incredibly retarded responses to my posts again. 

 

responses of the caliber of "bellend" and "what an arsehole you are". pissy little twat. 

some people really need to think that in every winning team there is always going to be 'limited' players who will always play a part in their success. i am not mikel's greatest fan but he has my APPRECIATION for what he has done for our club like every 'limited' who has been a part of our success. 

Kalou wasn't sh*t either he was a good squad player,scored important goals.

 

imo kalou was sh*t, certainly by the standards of chelsea football club during his time here and most definitely by the standard of player that currently competes for his position. i would also question how many "important goals" he scored. if you were going to count them on your digits I doubt you would end up having to use your toes. 

 

however, i don't think anyone can really dispute that he was, at the very most "good, but limited" (the original definition that raised so many hackles). in fact, that would be a very generous assessment imo. which makes him a perfect example of how having that many trophies isn't really proof of not being "limited".

fair enough. i think the problem has come more from people refusing to accept that "limited" (or "good, but limited") players can win trophies too; and being part of a team that did well is not proof of anything in and of itself. many limited players have played important roles for us (and every other club) over the years, be it as squad players or doing specific jobs that suit their strengths. 

 

"he won trophies so he can't be limited" is an incredibly flawed argument (and that was what this was about before the abuse started...and hopefully ended).

<br /><br />A very very rational post on a topic where a lot of Chelsea fans seem to lose their rationality. <br /><br />Not every player can be the key player/star/best player of the team, simply due to the definitions of these terms. <br /><br />Whether you think he is Maka II or the rebirth of Jovanovic, you should at least appreciate Jon Obi making 300 appearances for the club. A remarkable achievement for a 26 year old at one of the top teams in the world; all achieved under many regime changes.

So kalou was sh*t and ferreira was limited, This is your opinion, and my and others opinion is your talking bollocks. In his time at the club paulo has been consistently the best crosser of a ball and the best rb in the league. As for kalous important goals, it was a hell of a lot more than 10 and he was a perfect pro while with us.

yes, but i am prepared to back up my opinion and say why i hold it. 

 

which is a bit different to just saying "bollocks".

best crosser of the ball in the league? really? ::MooNeY::

 

best rb in the league? he was never in the pfa team of the year so his fellow pros didn't agree. 

 

by his second season with us he was having trouble holding down his place in the team. by his third season with us he was struggling to get games in his favoured position ahead of out of position defensive midfielders and a crap dutch centre back. he was here 9 years and we were trying to replace him after 1.

trying naming them. i think you would be surprised. 

 

no surprise on who liked your post though.  ::MooNeY::

exactly did you back up ypur opinion of kalou, other than saying he was sh*t.

And I meant best crosser at the club.

more importantly; have you said anything on the subject other than "no, he's not...absolute bollocks"?

"consistently" for his 9 years here? 

 

robben, geremi, duff, lampard, bridge, ballack, cole, malouda, belletti, quaresma, deco, zhirkov, mata, hazard. 

 

none of them could cross a ball like old "1 assist a season" paulo huh? 

Thats you backing up your opinion? Wow, such in depth analysis. And yes, in my opinion paulo was the best and most consistent crosser of the ball at the club.

i don't need to go in depth when you are saying literally nothing. 

 

& paulo ferreira is a better crosser of the ball than mata; according to you. i don't think i need to take you seriously any more. 

So let me get this straight, your allowed your opinion that ferreira was ok, but im not allowed my opinion that during his team at the club he was consistently the best crosser?great debating skills there matey.

On kalou you said you had backed up your opinion, now ypure saying you dont need to?how very confusing.

are you seriously saying that he was a better crosser of the ball than mata is? i don't need to debate that. it's retarded. 

 

& i didn't say he was "ok". i said he was "good, but limited". "solid, but unexceptional". "mr. 7/10". 

 

ps. if you want to have a "debate"...then debate. make an argument. back it up with some points.

 

or just misquote me, make outrageous claims that you refuse to back up and leave single sentence responses that say nothing.  ::clap2::

On kalou you said you had backed up your opinion, now ypure saying you dont need to?how very confusing.

 

actually, i'm saying that i don't need to go into any more depth than i have already, because you are offering nothing in response. 

Dicky, didn't your mother ever tell you not to enter into a battle of wits with an unarmed man?  If you argue with an idiot, they try to bring you down to their level, where they have much much more experience.

 

The bloke's a troll and a prick - just look at the username FFS!

you have done nothing but slag me off and "like" posts that slag me off. 

 

yet i am the troll?

 

dkw is clearly on the wind-up anyway. i've been giving him the benefit of the doubt, but if anyone would like to see what trolling posts look like, his responses to me on this thread are very good examples. 

make a poll...is mata a better crosser of the ball than ferreira.

see what happens.

Whats the poll for, its my opinion you buffoon. Which as far as im aware im allowed to have.

I had an hour to waste before going for an haircut, what better way to waste it than responding to a blithering idiot. It was fun.

yes. you are. i am also allowed to challenge them however. 

 

and please notice that i did not just go "bullsh*t" repeatedly, which is your way of dealing with an opinion you do not agree with, obviously the done thing on this site given the likes it got.

 

but, a question; 

 

i would be interested to know your opinion on how the guy who was "In his time at the club consistently the best crosser of a ball" (better, you claim, than robben, geremi, duff, lampard, bridge, ballack, cole, malouda, belletti, quaresma, deco, zhirkov, mata, hazard etc) managed to play league football with the best attacking header of the ball in the world for 8 years and only get 5 assists.
