QUARESMA IS GOOD
AARON LENNON HAS THE ABILITY TO BE EVEN BETTER AND HE IS AVAILABLE AS RAMOS IS REBUILDING

Not convinced about him myself, I don't think he showed up at the races against us did he? Does that mean he is not a big game player. It's all very well being a trick pony against inferior opposition.
He is also a diving little twat from what I remember, have I got the right player?

You have indeed. But then, those same accusations used to be (and still are) levelled at Ronaldo.

I wouldn't mind having a player that consistently finishes off the likes of Wigan, Birmingham, Portsmouth, Reading and so forth. We play the shit teams a lot more than we do the good ones.

He gets homesick, he wastes opportunties to go forward and stick a cross in because he would rather go down than beat his man and stick a cross in, he can go completely missing in games, he would cost the better part of £20M and there are better (IMO) than him out there.
[/quote]

Like who?

The only two wingers better than him IMO are Ronaldo and Ribery, the rest are either too young or awful in one way or another.

Quaresma is immensly skillfull, very quick, has a good (not brilliant but good) eye for goal and his crossing is second to none, noone in the world gets the ball in from the angles he does, he is cocky, he is moody and yes he disapears sometimes but alot of players do and I reckon EVRY SINGLE LFC fan will be creaming their pants if we sign him.
20 mil is a tiny bit steep but didn't united pay 18 mil for Carrick? - hardly the most exciting player in the world.

Well, according to this thread I reckon you're probably wrong - as I count at least two who won't be

You just wrote his biography, mate.

He is tricky but displays no heart. I'd hate to think we had to count on him in a pressure cooker like OT or goodison and I reckon he'd spend most of his time on the stretcher when we went to the Reebok etc. You look at Ronaldo and see the similarities but then you have to accept that Ronaldo is probably a one off. He faced his Waterloo and came through it when many of us probably figured he wouldn't. For everyone that comes through that and out the other side there are probably about 50 who don't make it. They just remain those wonderfully talented, full of potential players who never add the substance that a title chasing team requires.

No truer words have ever been spoken.

That , old chum, is not the point.
I can't say I have taken much notice of Cattermole to be honest, although I take your point.
What about Bentley v Quaresma, is that getting closer?

I think you know my thoughts on buying unproven talent vs premiership experience. I would always take the player I KNOW can cut it in our league, so Bentley of course. (I wouldnt mind Santa Cruz either).
But if we signed quaresma i wouldnt be unhappy.

Bentley is Premiership proven. Didn't Quaresma already fail in La Liga?

he did do a bit crap in barca, but that was down to the discussed topic of homesickness............but then again if you can't handle it in you neighboring country i doubt you can hack it when there's a wee bit of ocean in the middle.

It would be brilliant to have a winger that can deliver good crosses, open up defences and score goals. Quaresma doesn't seem to fit the Rafa type player.

Bentley is Premiership battle hardened and proven. He would offer us a creative outlet on the right and improve our offensive play. The lad can play and would almost no time to adapt. That is key.
