Raul Meireles

[Santiago. 1,500]

dear god just play Romeu

[BleedsBlue 1,549]

I wonder how much we're selling him for. Anything more than 7m would be a fair deal.That being said,I hope the board is not stupid enough to loan him out.

A loan with an option to buy would actually be a better deal from our point of view.

Fenerbahçe's official web site anounced that the negotiations has started with Meireles, and believe me, if that man does not come after this announcement, fans would burn the club down.

In case of an injury of Mikel or Lampard, Chelsea can count on Ramires. Also, Romeu is young but talented, he needs some chance and he can wait as a substitute.

Meireles, on the other hand; is not a player who should wait as replacement. He should play every match as a maestro.

I don't think this transfer will affect Chelsea too much, but Fenerbahce signed a key player, which it needs for a long time.

These are my opinions of course, what can you say about Meireles?

Meireles is a pretty decent player when he wants to be mate. He presses and passes very well at times but he just lacks focus and concentration which makes him do silly things such as take ridiculous shots or make silly passes. However when he does stay concentrated for a whole game he's a very effective player like he was for portugal at the Euros. Topal is a defensive midfielder if i remember correctly? Meireles should be able to form a good partnership with him as Topal can do all the dirty work and then leave the creativity to Meireles to pick out players like Stoch on the wing. He'll be a good signing for you definitely

You're calling Meireles a thug? REALLY?!

Well he does look like one!

[Duppy Conqueror 1,494]

for folks saying we should have sold Malouda instead.

it takes three parties to agree a deal. the buying club,the selling club and the player!

and Malouda has decided he`d rather rot for a season and collect his salary than play football.

[Justin_3d 1,140]

Let's cash in when we still can.Romeu won't be a bad replacement at all.

Exactly, and that's also been the problem with our club.

We never sell when we have to, and thus end up letting players go for free or next to nothing, like Kalou and Bosingwa recently.

I honestly don't know what is going through the minds of the people in charge at Chelsea if we let Meireles and Essien both leave without buying anyone.

Before everything, anyone who knows my posts saw im not one of those who criticize the club and players in every chance, and i never get panic like a lot of us are, BUT now im super pissed... you dont know whats going through their minds? they simply dont know much. Just bought lots of creative talented youngers, without even think our central midfield realy needs improvement. I would manage the transfer window better than them ffs. We have lots and lots of money, and in a summer of big spendings we are going to the new season with a midfield of Mikel, Lampard, Ramires who didnt play there and Romeo who RDM dont trust.

Tell me what do i need to think other than that they know very little? dont get me wrong, the signings that been done are great, but when you spend so much money and left out with this hugh hole in midfield? thats poor management. Thats poor football knowledge.

This transfer window could have been A LOT better. We spended so much on players, we wanted to sigh freaking Andre Schurrle for 20m, we defenetley could sign a top DM or a CM. Lets hope they'll understand their mistakes and fix it in January. Just sucks they ruin it that easily in the last week... if we wouldnt let Essien and Meireles go it would have been more understandable, not good in any way, but more understandable.

Never thought i would be the pessimistic and the one who panics in this forum.

A very well grounded opinion.

Hope you stay here for more time! :blue scalf:

tsk tsk tsk...

[The Skipper 20,593]

Suddenly, Raul is everyone's love child. If he wants to go now, we'll let him go. It creates space for us to get a more important player in later on. We can manage without him.

[nadavTKL 1,787]

yes what do you want?

You can think what you want, the fact is that the only player in the squad i criticize in this forum is Mikel. Go check.

Im super optimistic about Chelsea, every season. I can honestly say that even now. Im just very disappointed right now and thats what i think.

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

Yet didn't you just say this?

How can you not criticise any players but destroy Mikel any chance you get? Does not compute.

But when will that happen? We can't buy new "more important" players till January, so what's the point in giving away one of the only real options for the double pivot?

[Kinol 337]

Mereiles has basiclly been shit ever since he came to our club. Yes, he played good last the last game, but as often when some players play shit one game people often say that you shouldnt judge by one game and thats what im gonna do now. He is not Chelsea quality and if we wouldnt sell him now we wouldnt be able to get much money for his transfer.

Thats the complete sentence btw: "anyone who knows my posts saw im not one of those who criticize the club and players in every chance".

Super wierd that you took of the part of "in every chance". you're just trying to win this and in some way think im a 5 year old and i wouldnt see what you did? wtf dude?

To conclude- i criticized Mikel, definitely not in every chance. If im talking about our midfield, he'l probably be one of the main subjects in my post. yes. And if i think we could do better than him, i will probably criticize him in some of those posts. Naturally. And thats especially in the period of the transfer window. Now when he's what we have, im going to let it go way more.

A year in Liverpool, a year at Chelsea, hopefully he will find a place to settle in for a longer period of time. Chances for Oriol!
