YouNameIt 1,511 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 I really don't get the whining on this signing. First off, fuck sp*rs and modric. Im actually glad that deal wasnt sealed. The thought of giving them 40m just makes me sick + im sure he will leave either on january or next year and then he will probs go for 25-30m. Secondly, Meireles is a good player (and he was ALOT cheaper than modric), maybe most importantly he and Torres work very well together. Consider Meireles as a Lampard who actually plays. He's not Xavi, but then again Chelsea really doesn't need that if u think about it.Our squad looks really amazing at the moment. I mean really, defensively we've always been superb, Luiz will be back and Bosingwa has been really good this (pre)season. Lukaku, Torres, Sturridge, Drogba, Mata, Ramires, Meireles, Mikel...come on guys.I think that if AVB has the courage to bench lampard and malouda some it will go really great.

dodojojo 510 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 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!He doesn't but what can Chelsea do if Daniel Levy won't take 40M? Put a gun to his head...Or had a backup plan to sign another creative CM? But they went for Meireles as Plan B instead. He's a good player and I welcome him and wish him the very best of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodojojo 510 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 That goal was all Torres.Yeah, I'll take a few of those this season and easy 'assists' for Meireles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinineUltra 1,170 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 How long is he injured for?Any how do you pass a medical if you are injured?It was just a collarbone injury and as far as i know he is called up to the Portugal team facing Cyprus.. if it wasnt old footage then even Eurosport showed him train with his national teammates when they covered the Carvalho retirement scandal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Interview? Unveiling?Going by SinineUltra's post before yours, I'm guessing he's on international duty with Portugal. So all that will probably be next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodojojo 510 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Must be something about ex-Liverpool players giving the finger and then joining Chelsea...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sl1XWFI7tU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pHaRaOn 2,131 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 bad boys, bad boys...It was against Arsenal and he showed the finger to Lucas. When Frimpong fouls on Lucas and received a red card, Frimpong showed middle finger to Lucas. Meireles just kidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortilla9 390 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Someone was asking about AVB not wanting Meireles at Porto. Listened to Duncan Castle on FSC and read a few Portugal websites about Meireles previous move and this latest one. Meireles had wanted to make a move to the PL for two years prior to AVB getting there. The timing was good for both player and team. Somebody said Meireles wasn't pushed, he jumped at the chance when teams started asking about him.This latest move has been in the work for 2 weeks once the Modric deal started to go nowhere (ok that'd be all summer). AVB reached out to Meireles and asked if he'd be interested in moving to Chelsea. The deal was worked on religiously by his agent for the last 5 hours of the transfer window. The last hiccup was Yossi leaving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheva. 5,373 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Meireless had more assists than Modric, Ramires and Mikel combined last season 12m and 55k a week, pretty good deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetsajCFC 1,255 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 SpursGoliath - 'we'll see' (good luck with your squad this season) - you should go and have a look at ours on our website - here's a taster of our forwards for you: Drogba, Torres, Sturridge, Lukaku, Anelka (who you got: Adebayawn, Pavlipony and Daniel Defoe) - good luck with that! As for Meireles being a 'stop-gag signing' - this is the same player who was voted Liverpool player of last season?? - he'll do just fine - totally agree that Mikel is cack though but it'll only be a matter of time before Romeu takes his place (have you seen him play? Very impressive - probably not as you've probably been watching re-runs of your 'only' excursion into the CL). Anyway enjoy your games against Shamrock Rovers while we enjoy ours against Valencia! PS £40 million for Modric was an insane amount of money to offer and I'm extremely glad you didn't take the bait because we'll probably pick him up for at least £10 million cheaper than that in January, once you're out of the running for everything[- JohnC80Not written by me, some really witty and funny comment from football365 I thought, enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 2 of Liverpool's best players have came for bigger and better things in the last 6 months yet their fans (namely that annoying twerp Phil Thompson) still thinks they have some devine entiltement to be succesful just because of the 80's. He talks shite aswell no wonder Houllier underachieved there with him as assistant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
