How dare you disrespect the mighty Henrique, the angriest of all Brazilians?

This is just depressing... We are such bad shooters!

KTBFFH! :blue scalf:

HAHAHAHA, sorry mate! I know the book, but I havent read it...

Definetly not 110k.

In Brazil, we strongly believe he will. However, it is just impossible to know...He is the best young talent we have produced in the last 1-2 decades. He can be world class, he has the talent to do so, but there are too many variables that need to go on his way. He aint a Messi, but if things go right, he can be a Cristiano. Right now, Barcelona seems to be getting a fucking great deal. 10mi payed only to him. Nevetheless, I wouldnt cut in the deal to pay 40-50mi, even if I velieve he is going tobe World Class.

@Kieran., HAHAHAHA, I did! It makes me look tough, just like a scar. (no, it doesnt) How do the points work?

But they are, just ask @Liquidator!

@ and @, you two just ruinned Choulo's great article! At least I did it at a very unimportant thread...

You havent seen many things apperently, including Hazard's proving his worth!

Go do your homework and shut up Jake!

HAHAHAH, English media? Well, where is your Neymar and Robinho top then? Have you seen the beautiful goal Damiao scored for Spurs last week? KKKKKK!

Yes, United was the one who offered that. Lucas was this close to joining Manure...Then came crazy PSG and payed 42mi + 140k/week. Mata is the most underpayed player I know. Just because he is vastly underpayed, it doesnt mean it is Hazard's fault or that he isnt worth what he makes or that he is being selfish and leting the name on the back speak louder than the crest on the front... Hazard transfer was fair, not a super bargain and not fucking ridiculous. His twitter saga was just really normal and playful (like a 22yo is), I dont view as brag.

1. United would have payed him that much because Lucas numbers were around the same as Hazard (30mi + 100k/week). 2. What does other players performances have to do with the discussion? We are debating Hazard's worthiness of his transfer tag and wages.

I agree, but ultimately people rate strikers by goal. I know it is one game, but if he has a run of good games with no goals, nothing will 'save' his performances. People go for one extreme to another, but if his next game is similar to this one, we better start to get worried.

Hazard is having a great first season, 110k was the price payed due to the competition. Would you be crying if Hazard went to Manure or would you be saying we shouldnt have payed that to him?

Chelsea was knocked out of 6 competitions in humiliating ways, not Hazard. Hazard makes 110k/week, which is around 5-6mi per year. Look at the dozens of players making more money than him, more than half of them are worse overall. If 32mi + 110k/week is the price to lure one of the best talents in the world? Hell yeah! This is just the amount that envolves football nowadays. Lucas was 42mi + 160k, Hazard was a hell of a deal if you ask me... Madrid will be trying to pay 60mi in a couple of years!

He is on 110k and I think it is justifiable if you look at prices around Europe and the quality he provides. I can transfer this to his thread, but I think you are afraid of the Belgians!

When did I say that? I said that to add all of hazard experience until last year and Neymar experience until the summer, it pretty much is a tie. Different backgrounds, but the amount of stuuf each did, the same. Hazard this year took a step foward by going to Chelsea and shutting up his critics (*cough*), Neymar has yet to do that...

He has more experience now, not when he came! It was/is about the same, different backgrounds, but the amount of experience was/is about the same. Neymar has done a lot and he just turned 21, his Brazilian experience has to be taken into consideration as well, he will have played Confederations Cup (which I still dont know why it even exists) and Copa America. The thing is that Ligue 1 is far more similar to EPL, that is undeniable. Yes, re-read your posts about Hazard twitter saga and how many people agreed. Just do it, then do come so cocky...

My view on Neymar is the following: I think he is an amazing talent and he is worth a shot for whatever team in Europe. However, he is not proven or anything. He is also not worth that stupid amounts that surround him, but is it his fault? His plan is to be free in 2014, so he can go anywhere he wants (aka more wages). He is, in theory, a player with no transfer fee! He has done amazing stuff for his age, but he did it in South America, which is underrated by all Europeans (that doesnt mean it is good, but it is underrated). Neymar has never embraced any comparisson with the likes of Ronaldo, Messi, etc. But the media's absurd hype on him turn people agaisnt him. If people look at him, they will see a lot of Luiz' personality. He is anything but cocky. He is treated like a superstar and that gets in your head, but he isnt a bad person. People dont know him nor his football, but because they read shit on Daily Mail or The Sun, they think it is all true... Chelsea and Neymar: Go for him if he is free, only if he is free! (like I said in the previous post)

Well, theoretically we shouldnt have to pay anything. He will be a free agent! However, rumours that Barcelona payed 10mi to Neymar so he promisses to sign for him in 2014. So Santos wont get any money, but Neymar will get 10mi for himself. In that same clause, rumours saying that if Neymar gives up and decides to join another team, he has to return the milhoes he got and pay 40mi (so 50mi in total). Remember that it is all rumours, it could be true, but still...

They are not half of what they were, I am talking about now, not the 8 time champion from a couple of years ago. I dont deny that, what is invalid is your comparisson with Neymar and their age. Neymar was winning Copa do Brasil and Libertadores with 19-20yo. How is only Hazard proving stuff at young age? The problem is not your state on Eden, but your attempt to make this a dig on Neymar. It is rather funny your love for Hazard now! Neymar would fit many teams, we are not his best option. But I would love him here! He is not FAR FROM NEEDED...

For Neymar... He is free in 2014, then I think we should look into him with care. If someone offers big time money, whatever, be happy away from SB. However, if people only offer him wages, then it is worth a try (imo).

WHAT???? Do you want us to spend 45mi for another scum? If we were to buy another striker (which I believe we have), it is Cavani for around 30mi or Dzeko for around 20mi...
