Maybe we're buying Papa as a deflection of Suarez's antics

so neymar to barca looks done after the copa is done. they'll make back that 30 mil in about 6 weeks in shirt sales. absolute bargain and they've got a player they can mould into a megastar too.

Neymar?

 

[Magma]

oops.

yeah neymar.

unless santos are being sold to barca for 30 mil

heard it here first.

 

[FAITH]

Agree great value get by barca, santos is a big club

 

[Redalert]

Are you sure its only 30 mill? Seems an absolute steal for a guy who could be better than Messi

 

[Magma]

i've seen 25, 28 and 30 bandied around. apparently there will be 2 friendlies between the club too, one at each club.

£30m is about right for a guy coming from the Brazilian league. May have loads of talent and potential but you can't bump his price up just for that.

'Could' be better than messi, doubt he will get close.

Only one year left on his contract

 

[juice t]

Neymar should do his own version of The Decision

 

[pantskyle]

Damn.

Wont be better than messi

 

[ilikepotatoes]

Surely it would be 30 mil + add ons. 30mil is a bargain.

 

[Indie_]

30 million is for Santos' 55% stake.

If Santos fully owned Neymar, they'd be expecting 50m+.

 

[chef]

With Monaco spending 70mil on two players will they still be in the hunt for Falcao?

 

[Redalert]

He's 21, and given none of us have actually seen him play consistently you can't say that definitively. It's unlikely, but Pele rates him and he's not a bad judge of players.

So 55 million then. Seems about right.

Imo he wont be 1/4 the player messi is. But he is still quality.

How many full matches have you seen Neymar play?

With Monaco having a russian billionaire as owner, and being newly promoted to Ligue 1 one can assume that they aren't done spending.

In the past 2 yrs 16 or so
part of family is South american background, maybe little bias towards messi

 

[Cruyff14]

A little?

 

[FAITH]

I try not to be but messi is the best ever.
Neymar reminds me of a young ronaldinho. Quality but not messi-ronaldo qualitg

 

[Cristiano Ronaldo]

Neymar will be very good in time. Might be a campaigner but sad we didn't go for him.

 

[SuperCats9]

There was no point in us going for him, we had a 0% chance with RM and Barca going hard for him.
