Attacking midfielders who can dribble are often turned into wingers; read: Messi, Ronaldinho, Cole etc.
Yeah well if that theory applies then I hope Anderson doesn't.
He started off as a winger at Gremio, was then converted to an attacking midfielder at Porto and is now an all round central midfielder. Shows he is very adaptable.
Apparently his preferred position is LB, so he can play just about anywhere it seems
No contest.
Exactly, although I think that was more due to him being lost in translation a bit, because he said something along the lines of "Roberto Carlos is my idol and I try to play just like him" whereas this was interpreted as he like playing left back.
i think the best move for quaresma will be inter. train with figo and mourinho will drive all the useless shite out of his game. look at what he did for joe cole.
Not until they have a manager.
Why the feck would he want to go to that shower of shit? I'm sure he'll go to a big club that wins things.
Shite player. No exaggeration. Not in the least. Truly shite.
As Brwned said..lost in translation.
Anderson prefers the #10 position, that's his favourite position and the position he has grew up playing..to quote him..
'I had more freedom and played as a No.10 against Liverpool, I feel very at ease playing this way'
I`ve never really seen the big deal about Quaresma. Lacks maybe a bit of pace to be top, top level.
Quaresma lacks pace? You gotta be kiddin...
Who are you comparing him with? Usain Bolt or Asafa Powell
Have you ever seen this lad play?
Come on. People seem to forget that Ronnie didn't just all of a sudden become good these past two years, he won player of the season for us in his first season. Lionel Messi. Quaresma has ability and if he became more consistent he would be a lot better, but I wouldn't even put him in the top 5 wingers in the world. He plays in a fairly weak league and excels, but when he is faced with even half decent opposition and is tightly marked he becomes invisible.
we already have two ronaldos. What about nani?
I'd rather zarate, for me he would make a major impact at any of the top 4 clubs.
But quaresma, his attitude is questionable but maybe he's grown up after his barca experience.
He's not really what we need, plus he would be fairly expensive, likely to cost more than Huntelaar and even though I dislike his playing style there is no denying he is better.
Seems likely with Mourinho there, he always quite liked him.

I must be going feckin mental as i swear i read this post of yours yesterday
We could easily accommodate him in our team along with Nani and Ronaldo....
Play three wingers - two running down the bylines and one running down the goal line

Both Quaresma and Robben were more talented than Ronaldo. Quaresma went to farca, Robben to Chelsea and Ronnie to Fergie. SAF's the best at getting the best out of youngsters
if ronnie decides to go, i think we should sign him as replacement
repeated as before, we need not have all the greatest players to be a great team but quaresma is definitely good enough to play for us

Towards the end of the season Robben has been eletric for Real and as much as he is a wee toad he is a cracking player when in form and was Chelseas best player when he was fit.
Quaresma is massively tallented and has been too good for the portuguese league for a while. He will most likely end up atInter though, it'll be interesting to see how he does at the Euros along with the likes of Ronaldo and Simao.
There could be a lot more than Queresma leaving them now!!
Sign him, Villa and Ben Arfa
The scousers are close to get him now.
Any link?
He's left his future on hold until after the Euros. How on earth can the dippers be close? Would be a reasonable replacement if Ronaldo jumps ship.
Lazy prick, wouldn't want him anywhere near our club
Wouldn't it be funny if, after finally deciding to give up on Ronaldo, Real Madrid went and bought his less-good counterpart instead.
If he was good we would have bought him instead of Nani
It's all over newsnow
They were not more talented. They were just better at the time which was no surprise given they were older.Both Quaresma and Robben were more talented than Ronaldo. Quaresma went to farca, Robben to Chelsea and Ronnie to Fergie. SAF's the best at getting the best out of youngsters
Robben made the wrong decision by going to Chelsea, Quaresma chose a pussy league. Its as simple.
Robben was definitely more talented. You're right about quaresma.
Great player imo, I thought about him today when I was thinking about a replacement if Ron was off to madrid.
You are one clueless poster.
i just heard on the radio that his representatives have flown in from Porto this morning.
The paper boy heard that one too
Inter On Verge Of Signing Quaresma
Inter Milan are on the verge of signing Porto winger Ricardo Quaresma for €31m, according to Portuguese newspaper A Bola.
The Nerazzurri have yet to make a big-name signing this summer, however A Bola says that they are just days, if not hours, away from completing the capture of Quaresma.
The Italian champions have been heavily associated with a move for the 24-year-old, and despite late interest from Juventus, they are on the brink of announcing a €31m deal.
Inter have been looking for some more technically gifted players in the final third of the field, as new coach Jose Mourinho aims to win the club their first Champions League since 1965.
Quaresma began his career at Sporting Lisbon before enduring a miserable season at Barcelona in 2003/04.
He then moved to Porto where his career really took off again. He has won 23 caps for the Portugal national team, scoring three goals, although he was somewhat disappointing during Euro 2008.

Crazy money for him.
i agree. great talent but not worth that kind of money.
Far too much money for him. He is certainly not worth that.
