he lacks a bit of energy imo. he isnt as good from the right and he's to lightweight and too attacking to play CM in a 442. and if we play him off of suarez we lack a physical presence up front, and also with suarez running around everywhere, most of the time there is no one to pressure the CBs so teams can build from the back very easily. all which points towards meireles being a bit of a super-sub. nothing wrong with that everyone has been talking about how we need a good bench. and we clearly have, need a winger on there instead of maxi though.


This is what I call a Super Sub! laugh

i take no notice to pre-season whatsoever, so i didn't care about any players form or the results.

when it comes to the exeter game i won't be looking at how much he out-classed the exeter players as i think it will a incredibly difficult game to look good in, they'll work their arses off and be hard to play against. i'll be looking at how hard he works and how much he wants to impress people, if he floats around barely being involved in the game but then turns up and scores a brilliant goal or gets a lovely assist, i won't be all that impressed. i wanna see some fire in his belly.

Raul was the difference today when he came on today. He's going to be an important player for the club this season whether its from the bench or the starting 11.

I must admit I've struggled to see what he brings to the team up until today. I must admit I'm very happy to apologise for my ignorance.

raul, a 12/15m player, super sub for most of the season, he wants to start or he is off.

if raul is given his fair share if games this season, then he will stay ie in a free role behind saurez, in certain games.

Thanks Murph for being honest, Raul is a vital part of this team, sadly reading some of the comments, even with his contribution today some people still don't think he's good enaf! I suspect tha gaffer might not be entirely convinced either, what with the inclusion of Henderson ahead of him today.... I don't know what else he has to do to win over his haters! confused

Agreed!

A shame if we lose him!

Firstly there are so many that need to be shown the exit door before him.

Secondly he is really talented and brings some flair to our midfield.

I'd keep him for sure!

If we are to challange for the top 4 and the title then we need a bench like we had today. It was refreshing to bring on Raul and Saurez today when we found it hard to break down the Arsenal defence.

It can only be good for the team to be able to chop and change the team with class replacements.

personally i'd sell meireles in a heartbeat if it would fund the acquisition of a top winger. but he could have a big part to play for us over a long hard season.

i think we're 2 signings away from having a squad as good as anyone in the league.

I'd like to see another striker and a winger. Would keep Meireles though.
