Are our expectations of Essien too high?
I don't know about you guys but every time he plays I am disapointed because he is not what he once was but given the choice of him or Mikel I would choose him almost everytime.
I would rather have Romeu playing but all in all, he has been doing a decent job. Are we too hard on him? I think so.

After the Carlo second season I had no expectations of him doing great anymore.
Romeu doesn't have the offensive ability of Essien though, Essien isn't a bad player but he's nothing of his old self

although essien isnt close to what he once was i still think hes worth a spot in our XI, although i think whats restriciting him is that hes been used as a DM where as when he was at his best he played as our box-to-box mid (ramires now)
personally i wouldnt mind seeing AVB use as lampard-romeu-essien midfeild

Problem is that you Can't drop Ramires.

Considering the fact that I didn't expect him to be all that, I have actually been surprised by his performances. He makes some very good passes to Sturridge and Mata and is always a threat from outside the box. Not bad, imo.
