Thanks for your in depth analysis. "Horrible", that's a really interesting insight you've made there.
First off, I LOVE Quaresma, and i think he's got amazing potential. I agree that he definatley needs to change his attitude, but i disagree that a move to spain or italy would affect that it all. I see two options for Quaresma, stay in Porto as their star, or go to the only place that will correct his attitude, the Premier League. If Quaresma isn't offered a move to either Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal, or Liverpool, then a move isn't worth it for him.
No new news yet but the fact that he hasnt been playing preseason games tells me negotiations are ongoing.
Mourinho already had his chance, and nothing worked. Let's be serious, nobody of hispanic or italian background can fix Quaresma. He needs the english.
Based on what? The only team I could see him fitting in at is at Chelsea with Scolari....But he's Brazilian and not english so it wont work
Yeah, a big dose of Scolari would either "fix" him or kill him, but its not just the coach that makes a difference in a players attitude. I am sure that Ferguson has had a big influence on Ronaldo's evolution as a player at Manchester, but he also arrived as a youngster at a club with established stars like Keane, Giggs, and Scholes who wouldn't put up with a teenage prodigy's crap. And still, Ronaldo is a diva. Quaresma is what he is. An incredibly talented player who doesn't always fit in to the team concept. He is a FIFA 08 legend that may never fulfill his real potential no matter who coaches him. I just can't see the guy returning to Porto for another year. He's got to leave to evolve and Porto need that cash in case they are banned from Champions League next year.
looks like Quaresma is on his way to Milan not a bad fee for him http://www.goal.com/en/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=806291
Nothing like the Summertime Soccer Signing Soap Opera! I hope the rumors are finally true. 27 million would be sweet and it would be interesting to see what Mourinho could do with Harry Potter.
Latest news is that Inter are no longer interested. http://www.transfermarketweb.com/?action=read&idsel=22396
Wow, It's so wierd thinking of him playing for Porto next season, I think he might start to get frustrated. Maybe they can go further in the champions league this year.
Then again theres another source saying that Inter are gonna try and sell suazo, crespo, and others to get Quaresma. It's gonna go down to the wire.
