What really happened during Raul Meireles' first day at Liverpool
New Liverpool signing Raul Meireles was unveiled at Anfield last weekend. Here's the key moments in the video to look out for:
0.01 - 'I'm sure he looked different on the telly...' Raul mistakes the Anfield doorman for Roy Hodgson
0.08 - Raul almost falls for the old 'you've got a stain on your blazer...' trick
0.15 - 'Why is this doorman muscling in on my pictures? Where's Roy gone?'
0.22 - 'Hmm... I could have sworn Cristiano said the place I'd be playing at was called Old Trafford?'
0.33 - 'I won't mention the World Cup if you don't...'
0.38 - 'Does anyone know where the Gents is?'
0.48 - '£50 quid to you, son, and no refunds. I don't care if it shrinks in the wash.'
0.51 - 'Not sure what they're clapping for, but I'd better join in, just in case'
1.07 - 'Well, that was easy. Now, where's my big sack of signing-on cash?'
