I never recognise Mikel as a goal scorer- Mourinho

Chelsea manager, Jose Mourinho, has praised Nigerian superstar and a top candidate for the Glo Caf award, John Mikel Obi, joking that he never recognised his ability to score goals.

Mikel netted the first goal for Chelsea in the two nil win over Derby County in the F.A cup on Sunday. It was Mikel fourth goals in his 300th match for the club.

'I never recognise his ability to score goals!' the Portuguese laughed.

'I recognise his ability to play as an anchorman, to play that position in a very comfortable way, with no mistakes. He reads the game well, plays in an intelligent and safe way, but I never recognise his goalscoring appetite.

'There was a smile on my face [when he scored]. For some reason Essien gave him the armband, normally it should go to Ashley Cole, so maybe it made him believe he was a goalscorer!
