Change in Transfers?

[Miguelito 459]

I know that this is a stretch, but ive realized something lately and everyone i have talked to about it says it makes sense...

is it just me or are the players we have been signing lately not only good players, but good people?

-Ramires, oscar, torres, mata, cahill- they all seem like quiet guys that are actually really nice

-kdb, marin, courtois, lukaku, romeu- they do talk to the media a good amount but seem extremely mature and know what they want and how chelsea will help

-hazard- he is viewed by the media as a egotistical guy, but he really isnt

-meireles- im not real sure how to judge him

-luiz- the guy is crazy but he is hilarious and having people like him helps the dressing room

i know that we have bought players like drogba and essien that give so much to other people, but pretty much all of players recently seem to fit this category

it just seems to me like we have been buying players who are not only good, but also likeable. im not sure if the board is trying to get our club a better reputation or make us more likeable, but if thats what they are doing, i think its working. it will help people who arent fans respect the team as mature adults and not hate us just cause the players wont make as many stupid decisions off the field. i hope if this what they are trying to do that they keep this philosophy.

Luiz has been the best addition to the dressing room in years.. Everyone loves him apart from Lukaku ... who he always plays pranks on, especially in the Fifa competitions haha!

Meireles is a hipster, he doesn't conform to your childish social conventions.

He joined Liverpool ironically.

We haven't had a player likeable straight off the bat since Kalou, imo.

Cap are you still struggling with Kalou's departure? You can get therapy for that....

Also I agree with whoever said Luiz is the best addition to the dressing room in years, what a fucking legend!

Get your point but when was the last time we bought a troublesome player anyway?

Deco, perhaps?

Deco wasn't trouble. I remember Big Phil said something about Ballack was jealous because Deco was playing instead of him after he was sacked. Also how he (Big Phil) struggled with Drogba and Cech.

Still Cap...? STILL?

Found that Deco and Ballack rift thing.

Ballack wanted to be one of the owners of the dressing room and the relationship with the German was not easy. He seemed jealous of Deco, did not want his arrival and I had to explain that I was the coach and it was up to me. I wanted Deco to work it out with Ballack, but it wasn't possible. They didn't speak to each other".

but still wtf is this then Big Phil?

As Ryan had already pointed out, Deco was no trouble at all. A decent fella and one who did well for us.

Typical Scolari. Always complaining about everyone else but himself. Pathetic deluded fool!

Why "ironocally" ? Hipsters love vintage stuff. Thus Liverpool is the perfect choice.
