Mikel hits at Mourinho again

Super Eagles midfielder Mikel Obi has again thrown jibes at former
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, saying the London club's dressing room is
a lot more relaxed because caretaker manager Guus Hiddink minds his
own business.

Mikel mostly warmed the bench during Mourinho's second coming, but he
has been a lot more regular under Hiddink.

"From day one, since Guus has come in, the atmosphere has changed,'
the 29-year-old Mikel said. "The players feel more relaxed, people
know what their jobs are and people are getting on with their jobs in
a more relaxed way. And a way they can perform very well.

"He has given responsibility to people and expects them to thrive on
it and make sure they do it in way where they feel comfortable. I
think that is what the players are showing now.

"When you come into the training ground, the players are more relaxed,
he doesn't get into people's business, he gets on with his own thing
and players feel very comfortable and know exactly what to do so when
he gets on the training pitch, he doesn't need to speak.

"We all know what he wants and it is the same when we go into a game."
The Nigeria star said like most of the Chelsea players he will want
Dutchman Hiddink to stay beyond this season.

"I want him to stay," he said. "It is the choice of the owner, the
club and the board. They will have to decide. But if you speak to the
players, 98 or 99 per cent of them want him to stay so I mean, we are
very happy, we are performing well and let's hope this continues.

"It depends on the board and it depends on Guus if he wants to
continue. He has said that he is here until the end of the season but
you never know, he might change his mind.

If the club want to appoint him fair enough. His record speaks for itself."
