Neymar

I believe Neymar has a deal with third party ownership which plays a huge part in where he goes as we have seen with Falcao transfer to Monaco

Just because he's gone past a few terrible defenders in Brazil, does not mean he will be able to do the same in the prem. Overrated. There's no way he could go past the likes of Ivanovic or Ferdinand

this is exactly true . I mean the kid has technical skill for sure, but in my opinion he is not built for the premiership, or italian league. He will get clobbered by the likes of stoke and will not be able to break many defences by himself.

while you can look at oscar and how he has a smaller frame and copes decently, he is still bossed around by good defenders in the PL. i honestly hope he doesn't come to city, we have world class players that have neymars features already, and can get much better players.

i believe there are many players in south america that are cheaper, and will surpass/equal neymar. to his credit he has done a spectacular job at santos

but he doesn't have one thing messi has: resilience to stay on his feet when defenders whack at his legs, and at the end of the day, that's a key attribute to playing in the PL

Former Santos Offical Vicente Cascione claiming Neymar is Bayern bound. His source is supposed to be 100% reliable.

Can't be true, right? What's the deal signing Neymar when you got Götze already?

Not really sure.

But it'd look like:

Ribery-------Neymar----------Shaqiri
------Muller-----------Schweinsteiger
---------------Martinez---------------

But what's the deal? If Neymar actually signs for Bayern they'd have 7 players for 3 positions. Shaqiri is a brilliant prospect who will need game time to further improve and I just don't see him playing with Ribery, Robben, Müller, Kroos, Götze AND Neymar as options up front.

Scary thought:

Ribery---------Neymar----------Müller
-------Kroos-------Schweinsteiger----
--------------Martinez---------------

Bench for midfield and attack: Götze, Shaqiri, Robben, Mandzukic, Gomez, Pizarro
On a second thought... maybe start Götze for Kroos. Götze on the bench would be wrong in so many ways.

Can see Gomez or Robben leaving. Maybe both? Cheeky bid for Gomez? He's a world class poacher. Maybe even more so than Dzeko.

I smelling third party ownership of Neymar too.

He would never go there if he could chose.

Didn't think of that one. Maybe Volkswagen (Audi) involved? They'd propably offer a nice sponsorship deal to neymar to lure him to Bayern. Audi holds 9.1 % of FC Bayern so that could actually hold some truth.
 
Gotze is nailed on to be a starter in my opinion. If Pep personally wanted him can't see him being put on the bench. Neymar will never agree to go to Bayern as well, but third party ownership is a pretty good possibility indeed..It may be a way to make Barca pay even more money though..you never know.
 
Bayern already denied that there's any truth to the Neymar story. Didn't make sense anyway and I'm quite sure Bayern couldn't afford him after spending so much money last season and already signing Götze this year.

Uli Hoeneß recently said, "When teams go to the bank, it's for loans... when we go, it's to make deposits"

Bayern are stupid rich and so financially sound it's crazy. They can buy anyone they want imo
 
Hes not going to bayern that was vehemently denied everywhere today. He's either going to be off to madrid or barca. By all accounts he himself prefers barca but you need to take into account that DIS owns 40% of his rights and while they may not ultimately decide where he goes they will play a factor. If he goes to madrid they'll have to pay a huge fee to santos and whoever else owns his rights while also having to pay barca some absurd fee for breaking the deal he has in place with them. If he goes to barca it will be for a more reasonable fee and salary. This is the way i understand it atleast and right now everything is still up in the air but it will be decided this summer by all accounts
 
Mundo deportivo(local Catalan paper) reports that barca ppl are in Brazil today finalising the transfer.

This is all but done it seems and they wanna announce it before the gold cup which is smart. The money they're gonna a make off this kid between now and the end of the world cup will pay for whatever er his fee and salaries are five fold probably.
 
sport.es running a cover on neymar tomorrow:

and from @barcastuff:
Santos' managing committee could today approve the deal on the transfer of Brazilian forward Neymar (21). The transfer fee is 57M. [sport]
 
The right country and club for him. It will be interesting who Barca will make available.
 
Were never gonna get him ahead of Barca. But still, I think Barca should be targeting some defenders!
