We need new winger because Dembele is always injured. Neymar is a more central player these days, not winger, so he is not going to help anything. Lautaro as a striker makes sense.

Still starts his attacks from the wing though. He'll drift inwards. But isn't that good for Alba? we'll still have the width, it's the defensive vulnerabilities that result that will be the question. Especially if Messi does the same thing

Let's self respect our way to signing more mediocre players worth 400m.

We need a LW. The options are few. Mané is not available, Sancho's fit is questionable and would probably cost as much as Dembele and then you have Neymar.


The thing is we have plenty of other positions we need to reinforce. Even for a very optimistic 170ME pricetag we would be crippled regarding other transfers.

Just getting Neymar is the easiest way out, thats for sure.

If it was up to me I'll sign a LW over a CF unless Suarez leaves. We're stuck with Griezmann for now and Suarez too.

I was against signing him initially too, but not now. We've got our young potential signing in Trincao and have Ansu and Konrad de la Fuente in the wings too. We need a top class/world class winger and I see no better option than Neymar.

Neymar is the only player who is a true difference maker out of all the players that we could sign. Can create for himself and others, has proven himself to be capable of performing in big games.

And most importantly: He is a goalscorer. We need more goalscorers.

Sancho would cost about the same as Neymar. If you were to make the choice between the two, who you would pick?

The Griezmann transfer really f**** us. Now its Sophies choice between a CF and LW. Im fairly in the Martinez camp (whos expensive as well) , but I can understand arguments for a LW.

A near 29 year old Brazilian party-goer for huge money and crazy salary is the opposite of a sure bet. HARD PASS.

The era of short fixes has passed. We need something new, and something which would last a hole new cycle. Not a player who would maybe fix things for a season then become a huge problem in itself in 2-3 years.

And is signing a player that might well flop like everyone else for 130-140m smart?

Everyone might flop. You're saying we should sign old players because the young ones might flop?

The issue with Neymar is even if he doesn't flop he's still a short term fix. Players like Lautaro and Sancho set you for 5-6 years at a minimum if they integrate well.

At this point we need to go for young over old. Neymar is on the wrong side of his 20s. He's almost a veteran and would only increase the issue of veteran power. Imagine Neymar coming to re-form the MSN.

We're making everything worse if we sign him back.

No, I'm saying that we should sign World Class players along with players with potential. Cannot just go for one or the other.
