Well he's not staying much longer regardless. His contract is up in 2014. So unless he signs an extension, he's got at the most one more season left in Brazil. Seeing as he's whoring himself out there now talking about PSG, I doubt there's a "pre deal" locked in place for him. Thats more...

If he flops they would sell him of course. But if he doesnt, then you can bet they'll try to tie him up for long term. Which is fine by me honestly. They can afford to pay that ridiculous price tag whereas we on the other hand have more important needs than to splash big cash on the newest step...

Great game overall. Had a rough start to it but he looked dangerous everytime he touched the ball. Screamer of a free kick.

If he's ready to leave that is. He's so comfortable in Brazil and its quite a big change for a 20 year old, not to mention going to a tougher league, and playing for a club which exists alot of pressure to perform at a high level, night in and night out. Throw in the ridiculous price tag he'll...

I love how he played. He faced constant double marking and hard fouls and still made the most of everything. His goals will come again soon enough.

I can't picture him going for less than 50 million. Santos are not run by idiots. They know they have a HUGE star and the face of the Brazlilian side that is going to have TREMENDOUS pressure on them to win the World Cup in 2014. Whomever gets him will break the bank.

Whats the general feeling around there??? Does everyone believe he'll stay or leave next summer?? Or 2014??

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/RZjjwAsHfOY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Thats just one of them. Trust me, there are MANY. In Brazil he gets the calls but I'm not so sure he'd get them in Europe so easily, much like the Brazil vs Holland...

It was more a case of Barcelona losing the league than Madrid actually winning it. We had alot of bad luck with injuries to Villa, Pedro, Iniesta, Alexis, Puyol, Cesc, etc. and thus we couldn't rotate much..... Also some terrible refereeing calls. There's a reason that the last 4 years or so...

MVP is vastly superior to Ronaldo, Benzema, and Di Maria. There's just no comparison.

^^^^^Because its Neymar. He's exciting to watch when he's on. That doesn't have anything to do with anything. He's a good player. Talented and skillful on the ball. But he's also a diver when defenses don't let him have his way(Worse than Alexis) and I never see him perform against the...

Doesn't make sense to buy him. Especially for 60 million. Fails to show up in the big games. Couldn't even perform against Mexico's under 21 side in the Olympics. All that money could be used to buy some central defenders which we desperately need.

Not true. I praise Messi plenty. But he was poor yesterday. In fact, he has been struggling alot so far this season in spite of the 6 goals he has scored in La Liga so far. His passing has been off the mark and he's been losing possession alot. I know he'll get better. But as of late he...

It wasnt just the Villa situation, though. Messi had a go at Thiago and Alexis as well. These things happen in football.But Messi himself hasnt been playing that well. Misplacing passes and losing the ball in midfield. If he's gonna demand more from his teammates, then he needs to sharpen up too.

He was okay. Lots of misplaced passes. But the whole team was just off and the link up with midfield and attack was not as good as it should have been.

Was poor today. But the whole team really wasn't on song.

I do notice that he doesnt show up against the big teams. You can say he's young or whatever, but Cesc at Neymar's age lead Arsenal to the CL in 06. Messi at his age scored a hat trick against Real Madrid. If you choose to be dazzled by his tricks and highliht reel material thats fine, but...

Its clearly a show. They probably went to the dressing room after the match and threw down in front of the whole team.

Man City and Chelsea also have the money. Of course there is also Real Madrid who would not only pay over the price tag, but sell other important players to make way for him, and pretty much hand him a starting spot on a silver platter. Whether he succeeds or not is another matter.

Its an impossible hype to live up to, though. Especially if we are the ones who end up signing him. He will be expected to shine as much as Messi does here and thats just not possible. He'd go for a 60 million price tag I'm sure, and he would be expected to live up to that. I'd rather he go...
