Neymar! Neymar! Neymar!

[bluenickusa]

I honestly cannot believe there are people wanting to bring Neymar to the PL. He DOESN'T HAVE THE STRENGTH, AT ALL. he would be a rag doll vs even Norwich's defence. Shit even against Sheffield Wednesdays!

Strikers in this league that aren't strong flake out (UM ROBINHNO?)

Uncle Pele wont let him go to the Premier League, even he says it will be too disciplined, man marked and strong for him!

I would like to think he could adapt like Silva etc but i suppose we should get used to the fact he is going to be ripping our defence apart for either Barca, Madrid or either the Milans!

David Silva?

I hope next time you watch an international match you choose Brazil and watch Neymar take the piss out of what are supposed to be "strong" defenders.

Doesn't he rival Suarez in the diving stakes?

I doubt it, Suarez is just a vile creature.

I am from Argentina so i have a special interest in the brazilian game. And at the copa america Neymar was so shit I can't even begin to tell you. What international match were you watching? I can tell you that while he has great technical skill, he falls more than Suarez and Nani put together.

Silva has a very low center of gravity and is a footballing phenomenon. His touch is only behind one player in the world.

Not bothered about the rest but agree about Silva, if he had more goals in him he would be ahead of Ronaldo but still behind Messi in the world player of the year!

Have been told by an avid Dutch league follower that Vertonghen is not having a good season for Ajax either and has not repeated his great form from last season. He's playing in a league where one of our kids is among the top few strikers, is he really worth going all out for?

He is playing as well as he did last season. Still fantastic on the ball, still a deadly option on set pieces (both shooting and heading), still banging in goals, and still making those amazing pinpoint passes from the back. Something we have no one capable of doing at the moment. We really need this guy.

Why the resistance, baffles me. :?

I'm sure you called this guy the dutch version of David Luiz in the last transfer window.So seeing as Luiz as been to but it bluntly shite this season and to me he looks a bit rabbit in the headlights at the pace of the prem football I'd say it's not that baffling

What robinho lacked was character and guts not strength!!!! It has never been about strength it has always been about heart when it comes to these types of player. Loads of small and not strong players have been fantastic ( in eras when things were harder than today). Zola, georgi, juninho, silva, etc etc .

Neymar could easily make it if he has the personality, heart and commitment to play in the prem as he certainly has the talent.

Honestly the idea that you can't make the prem based on strength shows in my view a lack of understanding of football.

For me the best example was juninho- all 65 kilos off him, I met the guy and he would make a flat jockey look big. But he had skill and heart and made chumps of everyone who said he was too small

Neymar already has a deal signed with Barcelona. The Deal was made in Japan during the Club World Cup. Barcelona gave Santos €10m as a kind of deposit on Neymar and they can bring him to Barcelona anytime between now and 2014 for an undisclosed agreed fee. If Santos sell him to anyone else during that time, Santos have to pay Barca €20m compensation,

That's the story I heard on SSN also, but some on here are saying the Santos President is denying this now??
He won't come here anyway IMO, and personally don't want him here. Talented yes, but he would get smashed to pieces in the PL.

Yeah you get the feeling a player like Vidic would break him in half with a tackle<br /><br />-- Tue Jan 03, 2012 4:00 am --<br /><br />
