You are wrong. Pastore is not playing due to tactical reasons. Dont think You know more about South American football than me.

The problem wasnt selling Cole, Ballack, Deco and Belletti. The problem is that no good replacemets arrived, and our manager did not have the balls to play young players.

It seems you watch a lot of Belgian League games to know that much about his football.

He said he needs one or two years to adapt himself.

Really bad. Played two decent matches in last two games, but right now is a ordinary player. Brazil only needs a good manager.

Actually football right now also means physical power. Look at Barça. Those guys are strong. Dont get fooled, Messi is a strong guy. Its not easy for a guy like Terry win the ball based only in the physical power. Barça also has guys like Puyol, Mascherano, Xavi, all strong guys. The problem with Chelsea is not the physical power, but that our game is based in physical power. If you are playing a team like Barcelona, who has the physical power but also has the skills, of course that we will lose. Our strongest mid in last years was with Ballack, Makelele and Lampard. Really strong but not the most creative in the world. So, you dont need to change the physical approach, you only need to get better players and a manager who has the balls to play a more attacking football. A pragmatic football might give you many league glories, but for a CL trophy you need to be more aggressive and less passive. Thats why in last 3 years Guardiola won 2 CL, while Mourinho got the same 8 years, despite many league glories and all the money he had to spend in Chelsea, Inter and Real...

"Bee-yash-Bow-yash" WTF, I give up...what a stupid guy. Why he come up with this "Bee"...

Thats what I mean.

He never said its a dream to play for a big club LIKE Chelsea, he never said "I will play for Chelsea". He also never said the will play for Madrid. But in one thing You are right: this thread should be closed to avoid this kind of stupid posts made by people who believe in all kind of press' bullshit.

I thought the same, but I think the problem is with their coach. They started against Bolivia with 3 defensive midfielders !!!! Di Maria was on the bench and Cambiasso was playing...and Aguero was on the bench and Lavezzi ( Jesus, that man is really awful) was playing. Argentineans cant even produce decent managers, thats why Maradona was their coach in last WC. Which is laughable.

I did not liked that at all. He did not need to say he is satisfied with the squad, it doesnt mean he is supposed to say the squad is rubbish. And you are wrong, we need an overhaul, but probably they will only buy 2 or 3 singings because they dont wont to spend more, but we do need more than 2 or 3 singings.

I really hope we sign him, even for that price. Sanchez, Neymar, Ashley Young, it seems that few options are left to make us a challenge for spanish giants next season. I dont care if his 45m. You guys were happy when we paid 50m for Torres, why not be happy with Pastore.

One thing I did not like. He arrived with the old discuss: "more than happy with the current squad. It was the squad that won many things in the past...". I hope its all politics. If he and the board truly believe that the current squad is good enough to win anything more important than FA Cup and we only need 2 or 3 players...then we and Villas- Boas job are in trouble.

LMAO. He said 10000000000000000000000000 times in front of the cameras that he want to stay in Santos. What do want more fella. Terry stayed quite almost one month when there was that buzz about a move to City. And after he got his pay rise then he said "leaving was never an option". I suppose you believe in Terry commitment. Santos president made an official statement, he said 2 days ago in a press conference in Argentina that he want to stay for a long time in Santos, and you want a video ? Crazy world.

Do you understand why papers keep spreading rumors ? Some people love it. Some people will always say: he is lying, he is saying it, but in fact he want to leave.

They can't, but Neymar told Santos president he will stay, thats why he made this statement.

After Libertadores Neymar said in at least in 3 different occasions that he want to stay. This kind of news don't arrive in Europe. In Spain days ago it was a done deal, right now they are saying he will go in 2012...

It wont happen...papers need rumors in this period, when there are no games. The fans buy the papers to see if they teams are buying someone, so the spanish press will continue with this bullshit. Neymar never said he wanted to move, he always said that he dreams about Europe but that right he want to stay. Days ago a comedy TV show gave Neymar a dictioary portuguese-to-spanish in the airport. Spanish guys took a picture and in Spain they created this news: "Exclusive: Neymar is learning spanish!!!!". Weeks ago it was Hiddink our next manager, and Turan was our first signing. Then VB was announced, and suddenly paper forgot about Lukaku's rumors, and it was all about Falcao, Hulk and others portuguese fellas.

Chelsea will try again in next summer. Believe me.

Santos president never said he is almost certainly to leave, CARALHO !!!

He never played professional football. Thats why he isnt very highly rated. You know, many brazilians are good at this age, but few end up being great footballers. But Juventus also wanted him, I also liked his interview in some british paper, when he said he choose Chelsea over Juventus because he knows english football will suit him better. All we need is a manager who knows how to use the youth, and have the balls to use them. I think VB is this guy.

Its official. Neymar is staying in Santos. Official statement made today. http://www.santosfc....do.asp?id=24790 Thread should be closed. Any other news are rumors or bullshit. Lets discuss about other players. edit: also dont believe in any kind of thing said by his agent Wagner Ribeiro. Last season he wanted Neymar to go to Chelsea and now he want Neymar to go to Madrid, because he is only interested in the money he will get.

And dont forget he is propably 20 or 21 years old playing a sub-17 tournament.

Lets try Ashley Young, that good english player from Manchester. Better singing than Pastore, imo.
