Rumoured Lucas Moura

[JoulJoul 20]

I'm glad we never signed him for 30 million, huge risk of them flopping 30 mill is to much for a youngster, and he might if not of developed like he has now. But still I want to see Neymar play in European football

The risk of paying this amount for "young"/"old" players are the same, see the case of Torres ...

Torres is still good, he's just playing in a team what can't cross or play a good pass, he never gets chances for instance.He was never worth 50 mill on first place and Abramovich only got him because he liked him, it was never thought about.

This guy is IMMENSE, I've seen him play a fair amount of games and he reminds me of Messi, he doesn't do to much skills just seems to glide past players using his pace and technique. He's also got a pretty good build (I would say), height-wise he's like Messi, pretty short (not really a problem though). I see Neymar as the Ronaldo and Lucas as the Messi of Brazil. I'm surprised we actually put in a bid tbh, we weren't being linked much - according to the source they are going to reject all 3 bids from Chelsea, Inter &..... the scousers (They think they can get anyone!)

And we were going to get Neymar for like 17mill originally or something like that (Stupid Pele), idk what people say even if he didn't play immense I'd say that would definitely have been worth it (Less money that Liverpool payed for DOWNING).

Agent Lucas says he has proposed $ 72 million from Chelsea, but says that an athlete goes on the SP

The businessman Wagner Ribeiro, agent midfielder Lucas, said the player was offered a 30 million euros ($ 72 million) from Chelsea. Nevertheless, the tendency is for the athlete to continue in Sao Paulo, at least for now.

You could tell this is a crappy source when even the conversion between Euros and Dollars is way off. 30 million Euros is less than $40 million.

I hope he has some very broad shoulders or that name will not fit on his shirt!

I think they mean Brazilian dollars not USD

Actually the currency in Brazil is the real not dollars.

30m EUR=72m BRL

Would really love this player at Chelsea, on talent he is definitely on the same level as Neymar and Hazard.

[Naked Mole Rat 437]

Is he proven?, so we should spend 30 million, plus he's 19, Id rather get a proven world class player with experience, because at the moment we cant be taking these gambles.

Agreed. 30m pounds is a lot of money to spend on a youngster who hasn't played in Europe.

Off topic: your post count at 2222.

Neymar in 2-3 seasons > Messi.

[incometax 116]

30 million is a bargain! so good in fifa 12;

[The Big Drog 1,110]

You just know this is another player destined for Spain, he is a top young talent and almost inevitably the vast majority of the very best young players in the world end up in Spain.

Who cares about this guy, we have Lucas Piazon

[St Abramovich 175]

Who cares about this guy, we have Lucas Piazon

The difference being Moura is a star player in the league and Piazon hasn't had a start.
