Is he? (the best player for our pivot) I mean, no one questions his talent, but I don't think he is made for the double pivot. He is a 4-3-3 player, a perfect CM for that system, but I dont think he will be very good with Mikel or Romeu on the pivot! I would prefer us to spend money on De Rossi and use Oscar on the pivot, than to buy Thiago...

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!

I hope you are as right as the home kit and Mourinho!

SAME! LOL, you are the most alienated Brazilian (who follows football) when it comes to Neymar. I am having some awesome discussions/banting with the santistas who are my friends on facebook. Our "pelada" group is highly active this evening!

First, Neymar's buyout clause back then was of 38mi euros (which was what was offered from both Real and Chelsea). Second, no money would replace winning Libertadores and Copa do Brasil. Ask any 'santista' and they will say Neymar was one fucking hell of a business! Would you be happy with Chelsea selling Hazard because the offer was too good to turn down? No, Santos already confirmed it is from Real Madrid.

Santos confirmed that after they accepted Barcelona's offer, Real sent a higher bid (35mi?) for the Brazilian international. Due to respect, they didn't decline what they had previously accepted with Barcelona (28mi + 2 friendlies). So they are leaving the decision with the player's agent, whatever team they decide, Santos has promised to announce it. Neymar is in a room at his father's office with all his friends. He wants them to help him decide which club he will go to. Very nice of him!

I think he will be really, really good as well. But I am not bothered that we didnt get Neymar, we have Hazard and that already puts a fucking gigantic smile on my face!

Santos declined Chelsea and Real Madrid to stay 2 more years with Neymar...In the mean time, they won Copa do Brasil, Libertadores, Recopa Sudamericana and 3x Sao Paulo State Championship. Even though, in his last year of contract, they sold him for 25mi + 2 friendlies. How was that a bad deal?

And that forum appreciates you for doing that. Might try to spread this to all other threads!

It is what Folha de Sao Paulo (kind of our NYT) are saying, spot on! 25mi euros, raising up to 28mi with bonuses + 2 friendlies...DONE! Santos might only announce it on Monday though!

Those numbers never existed, only media bullshit! Neymar's buyout clause was around 65mi euros, so imagine how stupid those rumors of 80mi were...

You are not welcomed to my house anymore, friendship over.

Barcelona's vice-president of football is having a meeting with Santos' president since 4pm (it is now 7:30pm). It is rumoured that this will be it, he will either go now or the negociations are over until January (where he will be able to sign for free). Santos want 30mi and Barcelona only want to pay 25mi (at maximum). However, they might throw a 26.5mi or whatever, so Santos can say they 'won' the negociation (because we know how egos behave). You have no idea how happy I would be to see this thread locked and you kissing his ass in one or two years time!!! UPDATE: Barcelona have offered a two leg friendly to complement the 25mi euros and Santos seemed to have reacted absurdly positive about it. Globo saying it is pratically a done deal and they have created a timeline in their website, with live updates to try to be the first to announce it (just like SkySports do on transfer deadline day)!

Geeez, I am 173cm and weight 69kg!

Awesome, I started to seriously going to the gym in March and it has done wonders for me! Good luck and keep focused!

What do you mean? Because Neymar is my mate's neighbour!

That is one bad stereotype mate. Brazil is not hotter than Europe's summer. The difference is that it lasts way more than 2 months!For instance, it made 16 C today...

No, that is Argentina! In Brazil there are lovely women's bottoms between the half-naked guys...

We have cheerleaders in Brazil and it is absolutely ridiculous. They are not part of football culture, it looks totally out of place! I am against it...

I see no fun in sitting on a hot environment looking at a bunch of half-naked sweat guys!I have to agree I went to shit resort saunas and not a specialized place with high tech infra-structure though...

Sauna is absolutely fucking boring (to be polite).

And we have more of those bad players than people think!

No way, a statue of Rafa would take too much bronze!
