    Quaresma is a donkey. He has no substance and only excelled in a sub-standard league. He failed with Barca, failed with Internazionale and will fail with Chelsea. He is not a big league player.

    I'm not having a go Bubs buy I have to agree with anladmór, I guess I would like to see another top player every week in the prem but i'm afraid he's not it. At the moment at least, because he definately has the ability to be a top player.

    He failed with Barca because he refused to play under Rijkaard, he may be a twat, but he's a good player, and may be exactly what Chelsea need. However there is an element of truth to what your saying, he is unproven at the highest level.


    Zigic and Diarra have proven the most so far after their winter transfers, I'll look forward to seeing Quaresma, Arshavin and Heskey in action though.

    I think Shay Given and Timo Hildebrand could both be excellent signings for their respective clubs. Hildebrand had a nightmare with valencia but I'm convinced he's a deadly keeper and Shay well the guy is incredible.

    The way to look at Quaresma is three questions

    A) is he talented
    B) Can he be worse than Malouda
    C) Does he know the manager

    I don't see how he's a bad signing considering he's free, has Inter and Barca on his CV and his behaviour problems should be taped by Scolari

    Fair points, perhaps just perhaps he could do well, maby english football would suit him?

    it was reported that quaresma and scolari didnt get on. He never started a game in the euros and when he did they were already winning or comfortable. He was never brought on chasing the game....
