Sochaux striker/ attacking midfielder Ideye Brown is to replace John Obi Mikel.
He gets his opportunity after Mikel's ankle injury ruled him out of the World Cup. Brown might
have not wished it but influential injuries have helped his career take an upward trajectory.
His choice is a bit puzzling when you think Lars Lagerback should have chosen someone comparable
in holding capabilities to Mikel.
As I'm sure many of you know, yesterday's post was a bit controversial. I attempted to take a
creative look at the CBA and the writing came across a bit poor to some of you -- while others
seemed to like it.
While I'm happy that the piece provoked such strong reactions from some of you, I wanted to say
that I didn't write the piece simply to get people fired up.
