Why Raul Meireles may leave Liverpool this summer

Where this whole Meireles saga does not also make sense to me if we are looking at the angle that we need to sell him to raise money; FSG have never come out and said that we need to sell players first before we buy new players. That was a Hicks and Gillett policy which never seemed to work.

Now we should not forget that at the end of the season it was reported that Raul would be set to double his wages because when he signed for Liverpool last season he was signed on a low earning contract of £30,000-a-week and that was meant to double if he had a good debut season; which he had. Now if this is the fact, Raul joined Liverpool when Woy and Hicks and Gillett were in charge so maybe now with new management and owners in place, they are refusing to go ahead and double Raul’s contract, so that could easily be another reason Raul may leave Liverpool this summer.

Now based on the points raised above, it looks more and more likely that Meireles may be headed out the Liverpool door. This would be a great shame as I think he is better than Adam and he has a bright future ahead of him at Liverpool.

At the end of the day the final decisions will be done by Kenny and I am sure he knows best.

Why would Liverpool sell Raul Meireles?

    There are some players that liverpool has not seen yet. I’m talking about Dries Mertens, i have watch him in belgium vs turkey international. He go to te pitch for “our seeking” eden hazard, and he pays amazing, i go to internet and watch some videos about the guy and is incredible. There’s no much information about him because everyone is behind Hazard, but i think he’s better and just PSV is seeking him for just 7 million. His speed, age, pace, technique fits perfect, better than downing i’m afraid. Sorry 4 my english, but i hope u take the point and put some information about him.

  9. dewale says:

    Why should we sell raul meireless pls, i think we should sell christian poulsen, instead of him, and buy in quality player, like Charles N’zogbia, Charlie Adam and Diego Forlan.

    I hope this is untrue. It sounds like the famous Xabi Alonso mistake all over again – the fans player of the season (in his first season!!!) and not respected enough by the club hierarchy. I would have Raul Meireles in my side over Christian Poulsen, Jordan Henderson, Alberto Aquilani and soon to be Charlie Adam any day of the week. He is also a proven at international level with Portugal and has scored match winning goals when it counts. Come on LFC why would you sell an asset like that? Get rid of the players rotting on the bench first to raise funds.. flops like Alberto Aquilani, Milan Jovanovi? and Joe Cole that are all on over 100k a week and need to go first. We still need quality in the side to help the young players develop. Jordan henderson is far from the finished product as we just saw from the English 21’s side. Arsenal may be the side that LFC owners want to mirror off – but having young talent i there side hasn’t won them any trophies now has it..

    I have been looking forward to this transfer window. But where are we. ?

    We have lost 3-4 target players and what have we got one overate you player from a team that did have a awful season.

    And what do lfc plan on doing selling players very need very much.

    I have lost all belief in we getting back to top 4

    Raul hasn’t been that fantasic for us, he scored a few goals, I’ll give him that but he is too lightweight, he never puts a tackle in and when one is coming he sticks his leg out like an under 9 footballer would do. Charlie Adam would be a much better option than Raul but I don’t believe that Henderson is yet. If we can get £15 million for him then let him go, us Liverpool fans are deluded if we think Raul is a player that is ‘world class’, we used to have them, if you hold such an average player in such high regard then it shows how far our great club has fallen. The guy wouldn’t even get a look in 2 years ago when we had Alonso et al in the middle of the park! Wake up and realise he isn’t a title winning player, he wouldn’t get a sniff at Chelsea, United or City.

  14. john says:

    great point,we should all watch him and see if you are right.internet scouts are important.

  15. Tony says:

    Alberto Aquilani, Milan Jovanovic and Joe Cole that are all on over 100k a week that is 15.6 million a year.. raise another 15 mill selling and that equals 30 mill? its not rocket science.

  16. Fran says:

    Very poor article, baseless and of no informative value to anyone! You provide no evidence of anything at all and don’t support your opinions with any facts. You should think long and hard before penning another!
