Raul Meireles

[-V-]

You're deluded and have a very short memory, to let Meireles is nothing short of stupid, I don't care who I'm insulting. It's only a matter of time until people see that Henderson and Adam simply are not good enough, if they weren't British we would have never bought them because they are not good enough. And when people realise this in a couple of weeks/months, Meireles, the current PFA fans player of the year, will be back in the team, or worse still, we'll need him in the team but he'll be in Chelsea's team.

He's on a low wage so we can't use the wage bill as an excuse, we need strength and depth so keep the lad, a quality versatile game changer.

Ask yourselves, why do Chelsea want him? If we need to sell anybody sell Cole, sell Maxi, sell Pacheco, sell Spearing, sell Poulsen, sell Degan, but for Christ's sake, don't sell, arguably along with Lucas, our best player of last year. If we have top four aspirations, or title aspirations, selling Meireles isn't a good way of showing it.

Spot on. We've finally got a competitive midfield and people want to sell one of our better players. Lets focus on selling ****e like Joe Cole and Poulsen instead

If it was possible I would love to see a swap deal with Sturridge. We have more than enough midfielders and not enough strikers.

Saw talk of Sturridge coming here resurfacing today, though its probably just journalists stirring the pot. http://www.crunchsports.com/category...-201108180036/

Meireles showed yesterday we need him.

[RichC]

he did indeed, very clever player!

Exactly mate, I'd rather keep Meireles and get rid of Aqua, Cole and Poulsen

[Rich]

Meireles showed yesterday we need him.

Yeah - agreed. Lively in forward positions. Still not the player to deputise for Adam or Lucas though.

I ate a baby chicken last night and it was fabulous.

Said it all along, while a lot of idiots on here said otherwise.

We would be crazy to let Meireles go.

[Shaggy]

Agreed, selling him would be crazy. I think his rep with other fans is inflated - they see the highlights and often he's scoring or creating goals. His game isn't without flaws but he contributes greatly, the players all seem to love him and he should most definitely stay.

[IN_RAFA_WE_TRUST]

This is what you want to see from a player, he obviously reacted the right way after being dropped/forgotten about.

[RichC]

Really impressed with his link up play with Suarez yesterday, very clever player going forwards.

I know you really mean...." a lot of the people on here had a different opinion".
