Quick question for Chelsea fans then. How many ex-Liverpool players in the last 30 years have been a success at Chelsea? Meireles might break that trend. 
Transfer Deadline Day
- Thread starter Red Pavan
- Start date
The players they have brought it won't be playing for peanuts...

Is Bellamy going to be a shit as he was last time?
I am hearing you are getting Robbie Keane back from Galaxy on loan..
Chelsea's first choice back 4 are solid indeed. But if they get 3 or 4 of those injured they're fecked. It's cost them titles before, and nothing's changed since really.
So yeah, you're right.
Was Bellamy shit last time? I can't remember. I remember that fantastic game he had against Barcelona, forever know as Hole Number 9.
He's 10x better and more entertaining than Ngog that's for sure. And that is exactly his place in the squad.
Suarez? Carroll? Coates?
Every striker playing under Rafa was shit except Torres. It was where strikers went to die.
He was fantastic for the one season he played at City.
He'll do fine. Great signing, IMO.
I really need to go to sleep now. Don't want to erase all that I've written but it does you no good reading it since I missed the point entirely. Don't take it as an answer to your quote.
There weren't many players the got rid off on large salaries. I certainly don't hope so. The players brought in this summer at least make up for a very good part of it and if Liverpool start winning something then those bonuses come in as well.
Also, you have players coming in with 3-5 year contracts whilst players who are leaving had 1-3.
At the end of the day you have your 25 man squad.
Konchesky, Bruna, Mavinga, Ince, Jovanovic, Ayala, Kyrgiakos, Insua, Poulsen and N'Gog are gone for good. Aquilani and Cole were loaned out. By players being loaned out I assume Liverpool don't pay them wages or bonuses. Therefor in the accounting from last season, Aquilani, Ince, Bruna and Mavinga aren't being payed for.
How many of those players have big salaries?
Now enter Enrique, Downing, Adam and Henderson. All of whom had PL salaries. Doni had Seria A salaries so he's being payed handsomely as well I assume. Coates is probably cheap.
30m in wages and 25 net transfer sounds a strange figure to me. Is he neglecting the 6 signing on fee bonuses as well?
What Dalglish did this summer was strengthen the first team and the squad but by no means has he balanced the books since his arrival.
Suarez, Carrol, Coates, Doni, Adam, Downing, Henderson...
Their wage bill will be very similar if at all different.
Cole, Poulsen and Aqualani are only on loan too.
Did Bellamy sign for Liverpool at the end?
Decent enough getting Bellamy in, looked like they lacked a bit of pace. Meireles has never really impressed me, good player but tends to disappear sometimes. Liverpool still look a bit workmanlike for me at the moment.
Bellamy will be on alot of money too
Crouch to Stoke is finally a done deal.
He has joined Sunderland on a season-long loan.
did fulham get ruiz and gignac?
They got Ruiz and Sa, no Gignac though
Stoke looking good
Upson, Woodgate, Palacios and Crouch good signings.
Upson Woodgate and Shawcross three good CBs

the kaka link to spurs for a short while got me chuckled.
Gyan still a Sunderland player?
Let me google that for you
change the "gyan" part to anyone else for answers, usually works well peeps.

can someone make a list with the total transfers in and outs of each team?
thank you
thank you
And here I was thinking someone would explain what happened since there were mentions of a transfer request.
Stoke indeed looking a lot stronger! I guess they are going to have a batter at europe and try to stay mid table!
Few facts taken from United website for this transfer window, regarding players to and from United. As far as the newspapers go we had:
Arriving
Running Total: 87 players, £1.322bn
Leaving
Running Total: 29 players, £73.3m

Thats exactly what he doesnt play. He's the Portugal midfielder who breaks forward and supports the attacks. And at Liverpool he won everyone over by playing behind the striker
Meireles was probably the only midfielder they could get a decent price for.
Since Suarez will play behind the striker most of the time, and Gerrard excels there, they probably don't feel keeping him is good value for salary.
Moneyball.

Having to take a pay cut to join Arsenal from Everton seems a bit odd.
Why?
It shows ambition. He'll get to play in the CL this season and possibly even the next few years while Everton seem to be stagnating.
Not arguing with Artetas decision there. Just that normally when you move to a supposedly bigger club, you would expect a wage rise. Says a lot about Arsenal that players have to consider taking a pay cut to join them from the likes of Everton.
Are we allowed to mention ******** in here?
No.
Where's the Sneijder thread?
One modmin seems to have taken upon themselves to delete it. It should be closed IMO, but still viewable. If only as a gallery of shame. Lots of people posted in it.
Highlight of the night had to be good old 'Arry. He looked totally wrecked but still gave that interview. Then when the Sky Sports News reporter finished, the cameraman started moving away but then another reporter started asking 'Arry questions and SSN reporter made the weirdest face to the cameraman to keep filming
Agreed. I had 50 or 60 posts in there. And I didn't even want Sneijder.
Well for Artetas, its now or never. Arsenal took advantage of his decision apparently.
highlight of the night for me that scary kid at stoke what a fckin kisser he had...his eyes were all over the shop pointing in opposite directions at the same time.
