If Mikel fails to play that match, it will be a disaster for us...

To them it is only the goal scorer is the real player. They forgot that the key players at the background made the goals possible. Mikel was like the engine of the match against Iceland.

Am not Chelsea or Mikel's fan but Mikel worked marvellously well in the game against Iceland. He was highly instrumental. Mikel is in china.

All this peeps up there that don't understand the rhythm of games and teams will be taking trash that Mikel should go and sit down.

I don't blame you guys. You think just Ndidi, Etebo and Onazi can match the experience and pace of Argentina. None of you understands the vitality of experience in a team.

Take Mikel off the bottom-centre of our midfield and we are done-for

SheikhMuniru:
NICE ONE... WHEN HE WAS PHYSICALLY FIT HE PLAYED WOEFULLY AND NOW THAT HE HAS BIN INJURED, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY BUT LET ME CRY FOR MIKEL...

you are just a big lier.

adekhingz:


Lemme just quote and like your post because you mentioned Chelsea and i like them......I don't understand why you said Mikel was highly instrumental, though...

you people don't understand football, all you know is who scored d goal.

Horlartunes:
Yes...fake injury

We don't need him in the Match. Nigeria vs Argentina match is going to be very decisive. Messi and Aguero are going to be all over the place to prove a point. We need sturdy and creative midfielders to hold the pace of these class players. Mikel is the least creative midfield in the world cup tournament. He should stay on the bench with his 'don't dirty style of play' or better still come home for treatment.

Will you keep quiet! What do you know about football? Why do you think that the coach insist on him playing? Without Mikel around the midfield Nigeria team always play cluelessly. We all saw that in Nigeria match against Poland and South African

You are arguably one hell of a Nigerian who makes mediocrity feels sense of importance.

I sight you bro

Beehshorp:






Maybe we would play you

Lol

Moses will help slow the ball cos Argentina will be playing the tiki taka style...fast one

but you don't give Messi a third chance, its not done

Some things will always repeat itself

I didn't feel him in the match like that jor......

Pls. If he is injured, let John Ogu take his place. We don't want any excuse.

ritababe:
he should just remain in bench and not spoil our must win match for us oh.

. My crush long time no see.

Vardy played a whole season with fracture wrist. Please !!!!!

If Mikel is benched against Argentina that will be the end of Naija in the world cup. He is the leader most experienced, has played against the best in the world. he is the best ball passer we have for now, can hold the ball and can mark.

Godbless You Abundantly

ritababe:


yeah he tried his best but we are playing against messi now, playing Mikel will be disastrous.

As if he didn't play against Barcelona's Messi enroute UCL triumph

after reading some comments here I discovered that a lot of fans just watch matches and see only the goal scorers
Mikel had 87% passing accuracy in the match the best from both teams and he has helped Nigeria a lot of times in slowing down the tempo of matches but we don't know that.
a lot who watch football just watch it to see goals truly and nothing else

Lordcenturion2:

Watch your stupid mouth cos you no get sense.. Just come type rubbish.. Receive sense

I hope the coach is playing mind games

If Mikel is truly injured the. John Ogu should get ready to replace him. Ogu is also a good deep lying playmaker

Lordcenturion2:
Please, don't risk our one and only snail who call himself a captain who only know how to do back pass let a fast leg play plz

Wetin u sabi do

Pls guys, try and use some common sense when analysing football. Mikel is the best midfielder we have. Without Mikel, the whole midfield will be in a bad state. Moreover, no one passes the ball better than Mikel. In fact, in our last match, the attempted long range passes by Etebor, Ndidi and Co were so woeful. Mikel is the only one that can send accurate long passes in that midfield. He also coordinates the midfield well all the time and gives good instructions. If he sits in the bench, we are finished!

nonsense.
the most important match of our world cup so far and Mikel wanna play with injury ?
Na only am waka come Russia ?
I thought we came with 23 players

U ar very stupid for saying that, I share my thoughts, did I mention any damn of ur family, in fact all of them a very stupid... Nonsense

guy... you nailed it, I hate arguing with my country men when it comes to football, they argue like nursery school students... use for example, NIGERIA lost to CROATIA and everybody said they played rubbish because they couldn't score goals, forgetting that we dominated that match but our problem was formation and set pieces, Nigerians quickly concluded that the SE would lose to Iceland because ICELAND plays better football, now we beat ICELAND and we are about to face ARGENTINA, and some people said we won ICELAND cos they are a small team and that SE won't beat ARGENTINA, I had to give up on Nigerians ...cos they don't know anything about football except goals.
