Remember Chelsea and Utd going to war over a teenage future superstar of the name John Obi Mikel?

I remember thinking this kid must be the second coming of Zidane the way they were battling it out for him. Funny looking back at it now.

Wasn't he meant to be some skillful striker?

Only Mourinho could turn a wunderkid into a side passing deep lying midfielder

I'm sure i remember something about him winning some best young player award in a tourney featuring Aguero or Messi or something like that

Might have imagined the Aguero or Messi part but he was meant to be a playmaking skillful player of some sort before Chelsea got their hands on him.

Sucked the beautiful game right out of him.

My source in Nigeria tells me even now when he plays for the National team he's like a ''Black Iniesta'' for them. It's just at Chelsea where he forgets how to pass a ball forwards.

Makelele was better than Biscuits.

I couldn't name something that Makelele did that was better than Busquets.

Slide tackling possibly. But I could probably say the same about Nigel De Jong.

It hasn't been a full year but Douglas Costa looks like the exception , Shakhtar players are overvalued including Willian.

How much did Man City pay for Fernandinho? Wasn't it 50-60 mil or something ridiculous?

[Cechmate]

Reminds me of FM12, you could pick up Fernandinho, Willian, Douglas Costa, Texeira etc from Shakhtar for 10-12 mil each.
