3. Mikel back in the team
Speaking of Mikel, there is one player who has joined the team, well at least gotten a chance to show what he can do for the club. Cesc Fabregas was struggling in the centre of the park and Jose Mourinho persisted with the Spaniard alongside Nemanja Matic.
Guus saw the problem and brought the Nigerian back into the side. Mikel might not be the greatest midfielder in the league but he does provide Chelsea with some stability and that has greatly helped them. He even did well in the Champions League tie and got the crucial away goal, not bad for someone who seemed to be out of Stamford Bridge a few months ago.
