I think he will do fine.

The Spanish defenses suck.


I think Alexis Sanchez is regretting his move right about now.

Much Intrigued as well and well puzzled as anyone.

Hard to guess and, in the wise words of G&B, we are gonna find out if most of the hype was down to playing in a league with very little in it, these days.

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...


In Roger Ailes/Donnie Drumpf's words: "don't know it for a fact, but many people say so..."
there must be some truth, then!

If he was coming to the Premier League I would have gone with the latter. However, I think he will do ok in Spain. Still not convinced he's as good as the media make out though

He'll do ok in the majority of league matches. He'll get the shit kicked out of him in European games and Barca will fail again unless Messi stays fit and can drag them with him. He's not exactly their plan B is he?

According to the papers (which are probably bullshit) he cost less than £24m.....and Fellaini and Fabregas are both being quoted as more than Neymar. Interesting.

No, I totally agree. I just figured with all this hype that Santos would have wanted a higher fee.

That would be Santos cut not what he is actually being sold for. His rights are split up between multiple parties. Santos has 40%, some marketing firm or something has another percentage, it has even been reported his father who is also his agent owns a percentage of his rights. It was always going to be difficult for him to come straight to the Premier League from Brazil because of that.

The lad is a talent. Very skilful and an exciting player to watch.

Would he cut it in the premier league, I very much doubt it. Not many brazilians have.

Barca need to get their priorities right and start signing some defenders.

Perfect move for him. Will become the biggest player in the world next to Messi, without having to test himself in the best domestic league in the world.
