    Michael please leave now before you becomes value less. Emulate Drogba and co. Go and make some money in Arab world or the Americas. Invest that money in oil or telecom business and you will enjoy the rest of your life.

  • THE COMPUTER DOCTOR - CHARLOTTE, NC, 10 years ago

    Who gave the writer of the above story this baseless information. If Chelsea are lining up for a midfielder, it is not because of someone who, for some reasons, is not getting many game moments already. The team has a lot of ...

    Essien has not paid them this time so that is what they will write about him. You give them money, they write nice about you. That is how the repoters operate.

    What goes around comes around! Now Essien is going to be the one chasing a Ghana playtime to relaunch his carrier. "Be care how you treat those you meet on your way up for it is the same people you'd meet on your way down." A ...

    Brother Essien, please quit the stage while the applause is highest. Don't wait till you fall flat and became completely valueless before you leave.

    There is still a lot of playing value in you. Go and sell it elsewhere t ...

    35 years-old Lampard is still starter of DMC, it means his substitute would play often. Chelsea need stronger DMC. Mikel is good for counter-attack but not progressive attack. Essien seems not to play Premiership starter now!

  • KojoLee/MRAA@Samba Dance 10 years ago

    Jose Mourinho doesn't wants to use him anymore, once dependable midfielder for Chelsea has now became a surplus. 2014 Brazil is a revival for the old comrades.

    Only time will tell.

  • Johnson 10 years ago

    Essien will never go anywhere until his contract with Chelsea expires. He does not care if they play him or not. All he is after is the money, not name like his counterparts play for.

  • Jon 10 years ago

    I have a question for these writers? How many years left on Essien's contract with Chelsea? Why won't Chelsea sign any player for about 20 years at a time?

  • Nana Kwame, Belgium 10 years ago

    Please go and join Asamoah Gyan,this is the tym to make some good money before u retire.

  • anokwale 10 years ago

    If I am Essien, I go to a weaker league where I can get real playing time so I am ready for the World Cup. As I have been suggesting all along. He should only be a substitute. He is not a starter for the World Cup.

  • OwusuP 10 years ago

    I agree with you that Essien should leave for a league where he can gain some play time.I also think that players selected for Brazil should be able to last the entire tournament and be as versatile as possible.In that sense ...

    Ojam, how is Essien going to perform at top shape at the world cup when all his reflexes and instincts are being served dulled by not playing. Even if he plays high schoolers regularly he would stands to be in a better shape ...

    FALSE INFOESSIEN IS STAYING TILL THE END OF HIS CONTRACT

  • Branaboy 10 years ago

    Essien should move across town to West Ham United where there is a need for a defensive midfielder. He will also get more regular playing time.... only obstacle is his current wages.

  • SANTACLAUSIAN, Croydon 10 years ago

    I can tell you categorically that Essien is going nowhere. As at Friday, very reliable sources from the Bridge have indicated to me that Essien is very much in the plans of the gafa. He wants to use Essien as sparingly as pos ...

    Why this Essien is allowing himself to be treated like an old shoe? He is not
    suppose to stay there and beg be 4 he can play one match. He should leave just like his other team mates who win the cup.

  • DESTINY 10 years ago

    Essien may not worry, as long as he trains and they pay him. Whether he plays or not depends on the coach. Remember the coach brought him back to the UK. He knows why; Essien is a talented hardworking player.
