Chelsea defensive midfielder John Mikel Obi is currently questioning how often he will be playing due to the number of central midfielders available for Rafa Benitez, after David Luiz moved from defence to join him in the midfield. The Nigerian midfielder has admitted it is a challenge to get used to playing with different partners in midfield, like Lampard, Ramirez and now Luiz.
Mikel complained that, adapting to different combinations of players was making him question his game. "It affects you because I've been here for a long time," Mikel told Chelsea's official website. "I've always played with Frank [Lampard] and now I've played with Rami [Ramires] as well - they're all great players. Now I have to play with David Luiz. "It's just a lot. I think, psychologically as well. You think, 'If I'm playing today, who am I going to play with?' - because they're all great players."
Mikel will need to up his style of play if he really wants to be involved in Rafa Benitez's plan because it looks like the interim coach is gradually preparing Chelsea for a more attacking style.
