Petition to bring Jay Jay Okocha for upcoming episode
First we need hazard then we can go form there!!!! He's a must have plus with everyone else
I want JayJay.
Damien Duff and Arjen Robben too
and Kanu!
Jay Jay! So good they named him twice
That John Obi laugh 😂😂. It's infectious.
I'll never forget when Rio Ferdinand was once the most expensive defender. And absolutely worth it. Honestly like what he has been doing after his playing career. Helping the next generations.
Worth every single penny
Yeah, he was the most expensive for quite a while, I can't remember now who broke his record.
@@siberianTiger639David Luiz broke the record going to PSG
@@jaiswan2957 in his case, big money doesn't mean high quality.
if rio was worth the wat was it 30 mil back then what wud a fresh rio 2024 b worth
Rio is such an intelligent Man. Maximum respect! Fiwagboye of Lagos! Yes he is actually a Lagos Chief
Every Nigerian, Utd and Chelsea fan should like and share. Let's get Mikel to rival Club Shay Shay's Katt Williams' podcast episode
This pod is class. John Obi please talk about your experiences at Boro. The fans loved you and were gutted when you didnt sign on for another year.
Ferdinand one of the legends of the game
Most def😂😂😂
Rio spot on with his analysis on Gerrard, Scholes, and Lampard. Gerrard probably the best for big moments, Scholes the most naturally talented, and Lampard the most efficient.
Lampard was great in big games. Also he has people to step up
@@ionnicoara6657 I agree but if you were to put the most neutral stance when comparing the three, think Rio was spot on. Every manager is picking peak Lampard
I think it’s subjective, as I see Gerrard as the most naturally gifted all round player
I always respected Rio for what he did at Utd & England and was regarded as a tough competitor, JT for me was my Goat when it came to defenders though
Worked at his book launching back in 2013 in Covent Garden,Rio. Nice guy. Very accommodating. Peckham's own.
That Stoke dig by Mikel at 12:36. Brutal considering he played there 💀
messed up
Mikel😂😂😂😂 that your laughter!!! 😭😭……. Can imagine you laughing at a teammate in the locker room 😂😂😂👍🏿🙌🏿🙏🏿👌🏿👌🏿
Thank you John Obi mikel we just needed this Chelsea space
Imagine if they get fergie on the podcast
I rarely comment on CZcams but this is one of the best podcasts (overall) that I listen to. I think the stories of specific experiences from the guests and from John, Chris’ top notch ability to moderate, John’s authenticity and laughter, etc etc it’s all great! Keep it up!
You should deffo try Rio’s podcast Vibe With Five when he interviews players it’s similarly as good for specific experiences with players fans have never seen before, like a behind the scenes from back in the day, mikels pod on his is also brilliant!
Obi Mikel and his guest selection is top, really playing on the nostalgia of those classic Barclays days and getting on the great players involved and hearing stories is a great concept for a podcast theme
This is so amazing. Just giving us 1st class content back to back.
Big Rio, absolute colossus of a CB.
England has produced some of the best no doubt, sterling career at Utd.
Is it fair to say the podcast we never knew we needed
Oh wow. Didier loved pressure 😅. It makes diamonds for sure
Fantastic keep moving forward from Kenya we are watching
Absolutely love this episode. Big ups to Rio. One of my PL favourite defender. Keep the episodes coming!
Another banging episode!! Keep them coming Obi! 🔥
Lovely watching and learning ❤
Hi Obi one, please interview everyclubs legend so to have broader view in football world. It was interesting today bro.
1. .... naija here from Kaduna,Nigeria.
Obi Obi Obi ❤❤❤
This is the one
The show is on fire
Both podcasts are 👌
Amazing content
Good watch lads
Rio is quality man, great speaker of the game ⚽️
I thought he’d be more humble but still really interesting to see another perspective of the game
Nice show bro 👍
To a hear a Nigerian in Jon Obi Mikel predicting Ngannou over AJ is overwhelming. I'm Nigerian but I also have Ngannou to win 👏👏 big love Obi one podcast ❤
I cant believe you didn't ask him about Rio Joe Cole ripping him up at chelsea but Rio is top drawer respect is due sir salute 👏
Love watching my legend u mk me love Chelsea
One of many first subscribers here
Rio one of the best defenders in EPL
OBI MIKEL DOESN’T MISS!!!! How long before Messi or Ronaldo is on the pod lol
Rio is very funny and interesting 😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
Never seen this podcast before, came here for Rio (big fan of his) but surely will be staying for next episodes, really enjoyed the interview 👍🏼👍🏼. I would like to ask about the other presenter's accent, where is it from? I'm from Latin America and I'm interested in learning about the different accents in English... it's waaay different from Rio's
John needs to bring more Super Eagles through! 🐦
If we got Jose after Fergie I believe we win the league if not at least challenge for it with that 2013 squad
john obi take what i can mikel
I’d love to know the reaction/impact the Terry/Ferdinand situation had on the Chelsea dressing room.
Even as a Chelsea fan, everyone from Chelsea acts like it never happened.
I don’t believe JT is a full on racist, but in the heat of the moment he said something crazy. That’s my take on it
I always wanted former Chelsea teammates to talk about the John Terry - Anton Ferdinand racism row. Rio brought it up but Mikel didn't talk about it. I have never seen any former black Cheslea players (notably Drogba, Essien, Mikel, Cole) ever comment on it. And Ashley Cole was right there.
This notion that Messi was just chilling and didn’t care about the Ronaldo rivalry is such bollocks
This comment sounds something like a Ronaldo fan would say
Hope we can get Eden hazard in this pod him and Rooney were the two best player to watch in premier League for me
This show only gonna see growth with these magnitude of greats being interviewed
Afcon Final - 11/02/2024 - Nigeria v Ivory Coast.
3 1/2 days to make the call. The Obi One Podcast we want, between Chelsea's African Kings. (Followed up with a chat with the Bison obviously).
Rio may not have felt Drogba's presence but big Vidic did....and people say Vidic was arguably top 10 prem defenders of all time
You know... A good Ex-Chelsea player that would work well with the Brazilian audience would be Pato. (you could go for more obvious, Luiz, Oscar Ramires, but Pato was the ultimate wonderkid that peaked at 22 and had a whole history in Brazil afterwards) PATO PLEASE :)
Social Media has changed since those DAYS!!!
Would love to see Drogba or Hazard on the podcast.
Mikel the game changer, I know that one day you will bring Mesi and Rinaldo in your show
Never gonna happen because they don't speak English
Ronaldo does but not messi
@abiodunikupitioluwafemi1325 never say never . Tucker carlson interviewed putin and Ronaldo does speak English
Rio is the best centre back ever in the premier league no doubt about that
Bro
There’s Ricardo Calvaho, JT, Ivanovic, there’s even Vidic, there’s even Van Dyke, these guys are also good oo. So your statement is questionable 😊
Mate imagine Ronaldinho in that united squad my worddd
Would've had no Ronaldo if he was. Think they got the better deal.
@@kb5509 Ofcourse, Would've been amazing seeing Dinho in the premier League though
to tell the truth i never quite understood the question of Gerrard, Scholes, and Lampard. if a team had all three they could def play in the same midfield, so comparing 3 players with so diferent skill sets becouse they play mid is insane to me.
Rio fadinand AKA in kenya "maunga: that was his nickname meaning person always in drugs (in positive way though) his tackle and his fellow mad man vidic
Get Evra on this please
Next Ashley Cole please!
Bring petr cech next
When’s Drogba coming?
Bring in Michael ballack
Where Drogba video??????????
bring the man didierrr drogggbaaaaaa
When eden hazard coming on
Obi Mikel is obsessed with CR7
🫡
On the BW football pitch on the wall, how come there’s 12 reds v 11 whites?
Was Fergie the 12th man for Rio’s united?
Mikel should have joined United
In 2011 Berbatov was also top PL Goalscorer yet SAF played Hernandez with Rooney 😢
Berbatov was a diva
Ten Hag hasn't been hear since 2013 so he hasnt used all that billion and its not Ten Hag that passes the money over for the transfers thats the people above him thats been there for at least 10 years, so what your saying doesn't make sense.
Vidic made rio successful
Imagine the team if he stayed at West Ham with lampard , j Cole , carrick, dicanio , j terry , g Johnson etc etc
Rio, Cole, Lampard, Carrick, Johnson, Defoe.
Not only was it half a great team, but the 4 after Rio that left after relegation were sold for an absolute pittance.
Terry never at West Ham
Bring Torres
Nah, Joe Cole was the one that bullied Rio ;)
Really?
Finally a non Chelsea connection 😊
Osimhem and Boniface?
And now Jose has been sacked and arsenal are back on track so who's laughing now? 🤣🤣🤣
joe cole now ferdinand this podacast will soon be buried
The correlation?
Ridiculous 😂.
Goat:
R9 and Pele
Elite:
Suarez, Henry, Aguero, Eto, Ibrahimovic, Benzema, Rooney, Drogba, Mbappe, Lewandowski
World Class:
Kane, Van Nistelrooy, Crespo, Raul, Van Persie, Haaland
Good:
Son, Tevez, Anelka, Torres
Of course they played across different era with different challenges. Stats don't come into it as much because records are being broken all over the place. Giroud is currently the highest ever goalscorer for France, but we don't believe he was better than Henry. Life isn't as simple as numbers and trophies.
Come on obi, at least you should have backed AJ for the sake of the culture
What does 'for the sake of the culture' mean?
What does 'for the sake of the culture' mean?

Rio, I thought you are a fair person, but not to mention the league leaders is unfair.
Penaldo is obsessed with messi gisnlofe revolves around him ..he is like a narcissist who keeps playing his own..trumpet ... exaggerate s his mid achievements while putting the other one down
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Obi needs to stop laughing all the time for no reason, it interrupts the stories at times lol
Funniest is they drum up Ronaldo s goal s knowing very well .Messi has a bettwr goal scoring record which is so ridiculous ..that' he has played 149 less games than him...
Messii turned this man into his doll..in 2 champions league finals 😂😂😂 he cant name him as he is penaldos agent 😂
These football podcasts are getting a bit boring same old questions all the time, Scholes, lampard or Gerard ?? Like fucking he’ll mate come up with something original please
cant even be arsed to go do interviews just sits on video calls be skint in a few years like he already is
He lives in Dubai...
Mikel that interview where u tried to prove that Messi deserves the FIFA men award was awful. 😂😂😂 bro u don’t have point yet embarrassing himself 😅😅😅😅
Very embarrassing
Who's this one? Please it is his opinion. Give yours and stop showing bad character here.
@@naijawatchdog1193 it doesn't make it any less dumb, I am disappointed in Mikel. And yes I love Mikel a lot
People’s opinion determines what they are. We all have biases but we sometimes try to be fair for our image. Mikel did nothing other than embarrassing himself. I love him so much but he goofed.
Why is Mikel Obi trying so hard but failing to speak in a British accent, stop forcing it, it's really hard to watch, you're Nigerian just be proud of your heritage 🤦🏿♂️
He spent a long time in England u Muppet
😢
