Outspoken with White and Jordan

Former Chelsea midfielder, John Obi Mikel, who won a Champions League, two Premier League's and four FA Cup's in West London, savagely took apart Arsenal's style of football - with the key question being, will he be "sick" if Mikel Arteta's side win the league?

Mikel also discussed the form of his former side under new boss Liam Rosenior, Jose Mourinho's comments following the recent racism situation regarding his player Gianluca Prestianni, and Nigeria's failure to qualify for the World Cup.

Plus, after another defeat for Spurs, is Igor Tudor ruining the football club? And, did Newcastle miss an opportunity with their draw against Barcelona?
