Neymar

Neymar gets kicked to shit in Ligue 1 - and the refs don't have his back very often either. When he comes over here, he'll love it. He might get fouled a lot, but he will not suffer the blatant kicks he gets in Ligue 1 and he's not soft by any means - he's physically strong and competitive.

We've got what £300k a week in wages lined up from Sterling's departure. I'm sure we can scrape together some more money to secure him. He'd be an amazing player to watch. He's stagnated a bit in France. Possibly because of the level of football, possibly because he's pretty much assaulted every game! He'd get a lot more protection in the premier league. And his work rate, experience and ability are unquestionable. If there's a chance to get him, regardless of the risk, we should try and make it happen.

City fans have been longing for some headline signings. We've missed out on a lot of the biggest names over the years, focussing on the £50m mark players - and with huge success. But in Haaland we have someone that the whole world wants to watch, and Neymar is exactly the same. Imagine a team with Haaland, Neymar, De Bruyne, Foden and Kalvin Phillips!

(apologies to Kalvin, couldn't resist).
 
Reportedly £41m a year in wages, a transfer fee of anything between 50m and 80m depending on the claims, a d an age of over 30.

Also numbers that are hard to look past

The difference being the numbers I posted are real, and the ones you've posted are conjecture and rumour.

No one actually believes we're going to pay him £41m a year for 6 years or pay PSG €80m for the privilege, so even if they're truly what he's on now, those numbers are meangingless.

If he comes it will be on terms that the club finds acceptable and if they find it acceptable then who are we to disagree given the job they've done runnign things so far?
 
Give them a real fucking reason to hate us 5 in 6 years
Three or four CLs by then, five more PLs, and a load of smaller cups, and players will be queueing up to join us. Triples, quadruples, right up to septuples (is that what Liverpool could achieve a few seasons ago?) Mbappe should be ready to replace Neymar and compete to catch up with with Foden and Haaland for the Balon d'Or. Grealish becomes the new KDB.
