Mikel has been much better recently but someone has to play the aggressive pass and too often for my liking Mikel moves the responsibility onto someone else.

Yup this is how I see it as well. He needs to take more responsibilty and not be afraid of making a mistake.

In this new formation and style we need to get the ball forward quickly to the likes of Mata and Hazard.

Mikel´s first priority should be to see if the risky/aggresive pass is on. If it is then take it, if not then play it safe.

With Mikel I feel that his first thought is to look for the safe pass and he too often seems to miss making what would be a very good pass forward.

One thing Lampard has going for him, he can spot a pass even though he is not defence minded enough at times.

Right now the only thing going for lampard is that he is a fan favourite and will not be criticized, and the fact he s scored two pens,
