meireles transfer, yes it's difficult to say on this matter.. but just imagine you are meireles, you are going to be a bench player for liverpool and a bench player for chelsea who will be playing in champions league, obviously you will choose the latter...

it's bad to say this, but i hope meireles will endure a frustating season just like torres and benayoun (now an arsenal player) and realize that money and europe is not everything

houllier: benitez won the champions league with the players i purchased...
kenny: i will win the champions league with players i purchased myself, not woy!

we got £62m from chelsea in 2011, effectively paying for Suarez, Downing, Adam, Jose Enrique & Coates. not to mention the selling of Ngog, Insua, Ayala, Konchesky, Chris Mavinga, Poulsen and the load of players out on loan to free off the wage bill. Liverpool cleared out the deadwood and brought in the quality. Well Done King Kenny
