Rumoured Lucas Moura

maybe stupid question, but who is better talent Lucas or Neymar?

Talent wise theirs not much in it. Neymar is more known at the moment. Since that Scotland game last year he has gathered a worldwide audience and with his incredible skills it was inevitable. Not to mention the South American championship and the clubs that have publically pursued him. Lucas, in Brazil is very big - the main three golden boys being: Neymar, Lucas and Ganso.

But if you want some sort of similarities to footballers today I'd say Neymar is like Ronaldo and Lucas is like Messi. In terms of how they play, Neymar like Ronaldo does all the skills and Lucas just glides passed opponents in a strikingly similar fashion to Messi. Just like Ronaldo, Neymar is more boisterous and Lucas, like Messi, seems more humble. i.e. just like Ronaldo, Neymar will get a lot of haters. I think like Ronaldo, Neymar will lift off first but Lucas will definetly catch up. Put it this way I back both of them to win Baloon D'or at least once in their career.

well that's not really what its saying mate that's just the avenue it wants to lead you down. Excuse my ignorance but is nilmar a direct replacement for Lucas? I thought nilmar was a striker

Just trying to make out what that meant!

But if nilmar is on the move I wouldn't mind him at the bridge, and great talent!

It's not a stupid question but it's hard for someone to answer it.

First of all they play in different positions,Neymar is mainly a striker and Lucas is mainly a cam (though they can both easily play as wingers).

They are both extremely fast and agile with superb dribbling abilities.They are also the same age (i think Lucas is a few months younger).

My personal opinion is that skillwise Neymar is slightly better at the moment (just a bit though) as he is more technically gifted.

BUT you can't tell who is going to be a better player because i think that Lucas is humble and more focused on football than Neymar.

All this hype surrounding such a young player (Neymar) can really damage his personality and career.As a Brazil fan i hope of course thast this won't happen,i 've been watching him play since he was 17 and i have really high hopes for him.

Well Neymar said he was not going to move till after the World Cup.

So fair enough.

I say if we can get Lucas Moura, then in two years we will have Lucas Moura, Lucas Piazon, David Luiz, and Ramires, plus playing some sexy football, then it's bound to make Neymar want to come!

Didn't realise they used beach balls in the Brazilian league.

Nice goal nonetheless.

These are all very subjective questions, and everybody can give you different answers. Hazard has blistering speed, is explosive and avails a perfect balance between skill and raw dribbling. He is like a synthesis of Messi and Ronaldo stylistically. His speed with the ball is quite immense too. However Lucas is on par with Hazard with his dribbling speed and like I mentioned before, is more like Messi style wise. Hazard also has a lethal cross and atm would probably be more likely to provide our strikers with the balls they need over a run. Lucas probably will too, but I think he will need a bit of time to adjust like any youngster. Both are very levelheaded too, and unlike Neymar, will find it hard to have haters IMO. Hazard is 21, he has some UCL experience and is more mature atm whereas Lucas is less experienced at 19 years old. Both of them though are just so outrageously talented. These signings carry so much world-class potential, the prospects of them signing for us is very exciting. Really these players will be the envy of every other team in the years too come

Not sure whos better now, but definetly Lucas has much more potential to become a world class player.

For me, between them, it's not clear cut. Lucas has very quick feet & a loose style of dribbling, my worry for Lucas is that where as now, he'd have all of the energy to do what he does, always just getting there first to nick the ball around the player, that burst of acceleration. A lot of the best things about his game is physical.

Hazard has very close control, he keeps the ball closer to him & that's a style that serves players well, well into their careers. I don't want to write Lucas off as one of those players that were best in their teens/early 20's due to the explosiveness of youth exuberance.

Can he keep that explosiveness up? Hazard has nice passing skills as well, he is more careful in possession, but Lucas right now in terms of dribbling for me, I'd always give Lucas the ball before Hazard, he steam-rollers through.

The nature of Lucas game exposes him to injury more than most players, with him, most players the ball is right in front of them, they expect to get it & then flash! he's nicked in, what would a terrible injury do to that. Watching Lucas game though, he runs about SOOO much often he gets tired towards the end, he gives everything. Pedestrian is a word being used to describe us recently & Lucas is more of an antidote to that than Hazard.

I think Lucas is more of a unique talent than Hazard is as well, another skillful dribbler like Eden coming along? yea, why not, Lucas, is a bit more of a bespoke talent with what he offers.
