John Obi Mikel calls out Chelsea owners for biggest mistake
Former Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel has called out the Chelsea owners for making their biggest mistake – there’s been many.
When you look back at the amount of mistakes that these new Chelsea owners have made in the four years they have owned the club, you will have lost count of them. It’s been pure ignorance, but some of the mistakes have been bigger than others.

Mikel has rightfully called out their biggest mistake though, or at least it is their biggest mistake in my opinion – they have literally gutted out the entire club of anyone who was formerly here under the previous ownership and they have refused to bring in any former players to any roles. John Terry has a tiny role in the academy, but that’s literally it.
Mikel calls it out
In words picked up on X this week, Mikel said on his latest Podcast:
“It’s this thing of BlueCo not wanting anyone who represented the football club before and who helped build the club to what it is today. They don’t want the people still, which is the wrong thing to do.
“You need to continue that success. You need the people who knew what it took to build the football club to what it is today. You need the people to continue the success, the culture. We don’t have that any more.”

Chelsea’s transfer of Joao Pedro worked out, and the club will surely try to repeat the trick this summer in the market. He’s been a rare example of buying proven quality for the here and now.
Chelsea have ruled out an attempt to bring Xavi Hernandez in as their new manager according to Ben Jacobs’ reporting today. What’s odd is that it was Jacobs who reported Chelsea made contact with Xavi just moments before he said this!?
