Chelsea midfielder Lucas Piazon: Felipe Anderson right to swap West Ham for Porto

Chelsea midfielder Lucas Piazon can understand Felipe Anderson leaving West Ham United for a loan move to Porto.

The played at Coritiba - a surprise for Piazon when speaking with Maisfutebol.

The on-loan Rio Ave attacker said: "Did he play there with me? Wow… I confess I don't remember. [Felipe was at Coritiba in the last three months of 2006 and in the first three of 2007].

"I happen to know Felipe because my mother made friends with his girlfriend in London. But I cannot say that I am his friend. We had a quick contact.

"He started very well at West Ham, but with David Moyes he had few opportunities and did very well to accept FC Porto's invitation."
