Some people are against using them, as they don't hump everything with legs. The world's a place with different POV's.

If you find that appropriate.

Death being the worst outcome. People should think twice.

LOL!Until you catch something.[emoji12]

It's because he is a footballer. They aren't after him, but fame and his money. Too many people are naive to that.

I ain't. I said ruined his career as of now. Injuries are the reason he left Milan. That's quite obvious.

LOL!Will the girls still be there when his career's over?

I never said that. Injuries are the reason Milan sold him. Him supposedly sleeping with Barbara (Owner's daughter) mightn't have helped, either.

He's past his best. We don't want a Juan situation repeating itself. If we're gonna sign someone, sign them when they are near their best.

You could add Honda to that list as well. People are too fast to past judgement. Has anyone ACTUALLY seen him play live?Edit: Doesn't seem to be in bad form either. http://www.goal.com/en/news/3194/video/2015/04/09/10604392/video-chelsea-target-yoshinori-muto-scores-screamer

I wouldn't be so sure about that. Valencia are rumoured to want €40m plus for him. Decent CB, but not worth them figures.

He's a shadow of the player he once was under Pep. Scored in every competition he played in.

Quite a few reports are saying he's going nowhere next season. Time will tell.

I didn't follow Brazilian footie when he was starting out, but I'm quite sure the calibre of player were higher back then. Brasileiro is mainly full of has beens, and a few prospects.However, I'm in agreement. Neymar is on a different level to Robinho.

More will fail, rather than get anywhere near fulfilling their potential or living up to the hype.

Pato's injuries have ruined his career so far, rather than his attitude.I don't take much notice of labels, but if someone unknown is given such a title by the press; they must have something about them to warrant it.

Conflicting reports. I read they can sign him for £9.5m plus addons.

In Brazil, Robinho was supposedly the next Pele. Neymar has and is following the same tag.That's the reason I used that example.

Possibly that, but agents should guiding them to an extent.

I agree. He had the potential to be a great, but his attitude was his downfall. Seems to be the case for quite a few Brazilians.

I judge a player on more than one season. He had the ability to become WC, but went for the money. As I stated before, I don't doubt his ability. His attitude (diving, play acting, etc) are the things that make me doubt him.

Robinho?Both meant to be the new Pele, both were stars for Santos, and both moved to Spain. Robinho came to England and flopped, so who's to say the same wouldn't happen to Neymar? Everything discussed is just opinions and assumptions. If Neymar continues to follow Robinho's path, this conversation might have some substance.

I'm aware of that, but he wouldn't thrive IMO. If he built up and removed the play acting; that's a different story.

Negredo, Robinho, etc. Some fail, while others don't. Neymar's ability isn't in question, but his play acting and physicality are.Also, have you read the Oscar and Willian threads? They aren't exactly lighting the place up.

It's a strong, but fair opinion. From afar, Neymar doesn't have what it takes to survive with the physical aspect of the Prem. He would be a broken man.
