I actually like this signing.

But as I mention in various post, this will be a good buy if he takes over Lampard.

Cause if Lampard continues playing while this guy sits on the bench, then he was bough for nothing.

That being said, if he takes over Lampard place, then all signings being made this transfer window where good. Even last year as well, with the exception of Torres.

Well done Chelsea.

P.S. Chelsea you miss out on Alvero. Merieles-Perreira would have made for an exquisite rapid counter attack team, and fast flowing movement of the ball.

Having watched Meireles and Torres for 4 shorts months at LFC, they can play together and seem to have an understanding with each other. Something Torres and Frank don't seem to share.

Meireles' agent was negotiating deal non-stop for last five hours before deadline. Yossi exit was one sticking point. Stupid scousers actually think the deal happened in the last 30 minutes.

Yeah, very interesting. He's a good player but I think he doesn't solve our creativity problem. I liked the way he played in the World Cup 2010. Meireles gives more options in the midfield and he can play in many roles. Hope he plays well!

We might see that creativity coming from Josh if he gets more chances this season.

Start Rant

Got into an arguement with a stupid scouser today about this. He said that he wanted Meireles to leave but afterwards he said that he was a traitor.

"Betray us and you will always walk alone." Fuck off you stupid scouser bastards.

WHY DO THEY HAVE THE WORST FANS IN THE WORLD?

I bet they all think he did it for the money. I think he joined to win trophies and be around many other Portuguese speakers.

End Rant

One thing is certain, he can make a pass, he is experienced, works his *ss off and costs only 10 mil. If something he reminds me of Ballack, and with all the negativism in many of you, that may stimulate him even more. COME ON, RAUL, SHOW THE SCOUSE TROPHIES ARE WON HERE, NOT NEAR LAKE MERCY!

I'm really excited. Some of you sound like pedophiles - "anything over 25 is bad".. get a grip 27-30 are the best years for a footballer. He also had time to settle in EPL at Anfield.. had a great season, gives competition to Lampard and Ramires for that matter.. has a good shot, can be a threat from a long range and that's what we've been missing. I repeat this is not a damn FM11 or Xpert11, this is real life.. he'll be brilliant if given the right chance and SUPPORT. He also has worked under AVB before, played with Torres before as well. Had we made Mata+Meireles signing last night together, we'd be all praising CFC board. I think they've done a brilliant job this summer. Getting in youth, especially Mata and Lukaku, didn't let Sturridge slip away, loans for Kakuta in Bolton, got rid of some youth players they knew weren't going to cut it yet. Loan deal for Yossi to Arsenal, so he can't play against us.

Cech

Bosingwa-Ivanovic-Terry-Cole

Mikel

Ramires-Meireles

Sturridge-Torres-Mata

Available subs: McEachran, Anelka, Malouda, Hilario, Drogba, Lampard, Luiz, Romeu, Lukaku, Alex...

I think it's a great line up, we have a good bench as well now. Face it, there are LOADS of games coming up. One injury and otherwise we would have been fucked but now there's cover for everyone. Who would have replaced Lampard for instance? McEachran surely will get playing time and rightly so, but he will never replace Lampard, not yet. Meireles is CM and DMF as well.
