Life has been great without Jose: Mikel

-

The Nigerian Chelsea Midfielder, John Obi Mikel, on Tuesday, told reporters that life at the bridge has been great since the departure of the self titled "special one" Jose Mourinho...


The coming of Guus Hiddink has seen the midfielder coming in as a substitute in the first game, and starting against the match against Manchester United for 90minutes.This statement about Mourinho from Mikel, will come as a surprise to many, given the fact that the midfielder was among the first to show their displeasure for the sacking of Jose, and wishing the coach well on his twitter page; one begins to wonder what really has gone wrong with their relationship.here are what he was quoted to have said about Jose Mourinho, Hiddink and the possibility of Chelsea getting out of the bottom table...
On the new coach, he said:
"He hasn't changed much yet, but he was here before and he knows the place and all the staff,"
"The players are different - only me and [John Terry] were here before - but he knows what to do.

On bottom table:

"We're down there in the table for a reason so he can't come in and perform miracles, but we want to get out of there. We've had three games now without losing so are making the right steps.

On Mourinho :

"I've been as confused as everyone else. It's difficult when you're not playing, as you don't really know what the problems are. It was a collective thing - the players and the manager were not performing.
"We've moved on from that and the atmosphere has improved since the change of manager. It's fine now, we've just not been getting results.

"Jose is a fantastic manager and will always be a fantastic guy. But sometimes football is a cruel game and you have to move on. Is it the right decision? Who knows? We'll only see in the future."

On top-four:
"I don't think it's gone yet," he said. "We've got a lot of games left to play and points to catch up. If we keep going in this direction and keep keeping clean sheets then we'll definitely score goals."
 Do you think Chelsea can make it to the top four this season?
