Neymar

The bigger the beast...

FFP for UEFA is a long-term investment.

Yes but what if, as mentioned, other clubs jump on board offering silly money to Ronaldo, Messi, Mbappe. Where do UEFA draw the line and wouldn't they rather swallow their pride rather than risk a rival competition emerging?

Even in today's world of mega rich players I would find it very difficult to believe that even Neymar after only a few seasons in Spain has amassed sufficient money to put nearly £200M down on the desk.

this is my thinking maybe barca don't hold full contract and a 3rd party ownership and have the bigger share in neymar and its a smaller fee to buy out from barca this would make sense in a buying himself out and not having PSG paying the buyout clause

 

[yeah whatever !!]

I dont know what the pots are for the CL draw but i bet a pound to a penny if we can get PSG we fucking will.

Who is this Naymar you speak of, lost me at this point.

I thought it was spelled Neighmar, but I am always horsing around.

Barca v PSG more likely

If we went for Mbappe now think it would cause a total meltdown of the cartel, hope we do.

Depends if they break FFP.

The first two players you mention don't have release clauses and Mbappe is likely to be funded by clubs who can afford it through their own legitimately generated revenues.

99% of Europe's elite fully support FFP.

Not in the least bit worried. We have much the better team, overall, at this point, even with them getting Neymar, and yes, even if we don't get Alexis. If we do get the latter we will probably smash them. That's my sober — in every sense of the word — evaluation.
