Mad bastard. It’s kind of weirdly catchy in a crazy, wtf did I just watch kind of way.

Nat… Is that you Nat

There’s a certain resemblance isn’t there. However he didn’t jump or head anything and everyone stayed on their feet so it can not be.

Found an article on the above Raul Meireles lip-sync dance routine.

Whatever happened to… Raul Meireles?

I actually quite like Meireles when he played for us.

[AnfieldRdDreamer]

Was a mistake for letting him go in my opinion. Our CM should have been Gerrard, Lucas, Henderson, Spearing, Meireles, Aquilani and Shelvey. Never should have bought Charlie Adam and Henderson should have been bought for CM not Right Wing.

[CanuckoLFC]

I was quite upset that Meireles left the club. He was robust in the midfield. Wicked right foot. Scored some spectacular goals…and that was a time that I did not get to watch too many matches from LFC.

Probably nothing special. The reason why someone asked this question is maybe he was a bit more liked by fans than how good he was? He was good, he got to places like Liverpool and Chelsea. Not for his whole career. Maybe also was the type who wanted to move and try new challenges. He was good for a while, especially when Kenny played that narrow 4-4-2 and he often moved out to the sides more. Could’ve trusted him a little longer, but wasn’t to be. Who knows what were the reasons, maybe from both sides.

He was signed on a low wage during the club sale process with a gentleman’s agreement that if he settled well and did good he’d get a pay increase. By that Summer we had different owners, manager and now a director of football none of which were in that gentleman’s agreement and he considered (correctly in my opinion) that he’d done well enough to earn the payrise. Club decided they wouldn’t get held to ransom so sold him instead which helped create room for Charlie Adam to come into midfield. One I definitely think the club played wrong and bit them in the arse.

Maybe he is coming back to work?

Patrik Berger going on a bicycle from Prague to Split.

Should’ve been that fit when he was playing, damn it.

I thought this thread is for former managers and players for LFC. Did Jackson Martínez ever joined LFC? I thought at that time, it was just a rumour.

I’ll kick it off again then, by saying, I quite liked Lucas Leiva and was sorry to see him go.

@Maria

I liked Lucas too, he was one of my all time favourites. He spent 10 years of his Liverpool, he worked worked so hard for the club. I hope comes back in an Ambassadorial role, maybe.
I was so sad to leave, but he had to, but I am happy for him he is doing well in Italy.

I never found any valid reason to dislike Lucas. Yes, he wasn’t very talented, but he worked his socks off and was a rather amicable character.

…and not to forget he was played out of position for an awful lot of games…
That had to have an effect of his performances

@Iftikhar

he wasn’t very talented

He was decent however we got him when he was showing potential to be very good. I loved, just a little disappointed he didn’t fulfill his potential, then how many players do?
