I'd have him for £20million...But at the moment, I'd probably have any striker for £20million who can score goals. Age is on his side, So he'd be a good signing if bought. Not seen much of him, Apart from Youtube Videos which i won't judge a player on because youtube makes any player look good and him in the Olympic's which he seemed decent in!

What country did he play for in the Euros?

Damiao is very young still, so I'd not be comfortable declaring him average or barely good enough. I think right now is a very good player and certainly more skillful than Andy Carroll. He is confortable on the ball and can even dribble a bit, esp inside the box. He is not pacy like Neymar, but nowadays Torres is so slow that I don't think we'd lose much in speed department with Damiao.

I support Gremio (blue) down south in Brazil (it's the opposite there -- colder muddier in the south), and Inter are their arch rivals. I've watched (and suffered) from Damiao enough to know he is a handful.

It's all about the price though. He's certainly not worth 30 mil right now IMO.

As an Inter supporter from Porto Alegre, who actually sees him playing in the stands, i couldn't agree more. He won't ever be as great as someone like Ronaldo was, but given time to adapt to the EPL, he would probably be one of league's top scorers.

Certainly better than Torres.

That's cool! It's been over 15 years since I watched a Gre-nal, but I do try to watch a game when I visit.

This is nosense, because Leandro Damiao is shit.

One of the worst strikets to wear brazilian #9 shirt. I really dont know why this guy is so overhyped.

Too much of an overreaction Henrique, but he is definetly not worthy of Brazilian #9 and he is extremely overhyped.

When I say classy, I mean technique wise, how comfortable they are on the ball... Think Ibra, RVP... Not saying Berbatov is as good as them, no chance, but he is a lot more classy than Damaio, their first touch and control of the ball are miles apart. Damaio is more of a poacher whilst Berbatov can get involved in the build up and provide assists and goals.

I think that is true, he does look slugish. He has more ability (tricks) than Berba though. Not that it counts in games and I would choose Berbatov any day of the week, but he does...

I wouldn't mind him here for anything under £15m, but I can't see that happening.

I say that first bit because, well, he does have potential - but it just looks like his ceiling isn't all that high. He reminds me a little of Adebayor. So he'd be a fine back-up or rotation option I'm sure.

Surprised to see that nobody is talking about him atm. He fits our squad perfectly.

Because we haven't been linked to him. If the daily fail say mourinho's first signing will be leandro then the thread would be buzzing with activity.
