Summer 2017 Transfer Thread

[El Rojo]

Freddo's name was in all three of Brendan's envelopes.

[Alan Sex]

Swirl into milk?

 

Just like my penis, then.

[an tha]

Forgive my ignorance but aren't Freddo's just frog shaped Cadbury chocolate therefore any Freddo chocolate drink would be just the Cadbury hot chocolate drink but with a picture of a frog on the jar?

You telling me it isn't real frog?

 

You are James Pearce!

[El Rojo]

Fucking joke if true. Manchester City and Chelsea will sign Kermit and the Crazy Frog and we won't even be able to complete a deal for Freddo.

[The Golden Eel]

Some Freddos have caramel in, and they're fucking delicious!

Used to be called 'Taz' back in the day

[stringvest]

I don't even think Neymar is that good.

He's nowhere near as good as Messi, or even Suarez, but he's miles better than Coutinho.

[El Rojo]

If his name was Freddinho people would have a different view.

[Jockey]

The club are believed to be monitoring a digestive thin!

 

If you believe Twitter ITK's that is!

[Red Phoenix]

The thing is where does Neymar go from PSG? No one else will pay his astronomical wages or will pay anywhere near what PSG will want back when he leaves them. After a year or two he'll realise that it's too easy in the league and they're not good enough or play competitively long enough to compete in the CL, he'll want to move again I think but where? He's stuck there now until his contract ends.

 

If he has any decency he'll return to Barca when he's done at PSG and play for free. The big filthy traitor.

[3 Stacks]

Yeah but he's 25 and already has 50 international goals. He's the next top player after the current freaks finally decline a little. 

[Jay86]

Anyone saying Neymars not that good is crazy! Have you actually watched more than a handful of his games, he's amazing. He's a level down from Suarez and Messi and only Ronaldos goal scoring takes him above him but there's no one else in the world at the moment who comes close, I get people don't like him because he is a cock when he's playing and every opposition wants to kick fuck out of him for 90 mins and half the time still can't get near him.

[Grinch]

Neymar was over hyped long before he deserved it but he's more than shone now for a good few seasons.

[Numero Veinticinco]

He's going for double the world record fee. He's not that good.

[Ne Moe Imya]

He's going for double the world record fee. He's not that good.

 

The problem with this theory is that the values of players have gone absolutely insane this summer, making him worth every penny of the £200m.

 

Put it this way - is the best player in the world under 30 worth four times as much as an above-average English right back?

That's not quite how it works, but even then, he's absolutely not worth the outrageous money in my view.

[Jockey]

I think Neymar is Andy Murray of the big four!

[Jay86]

He's going for double the world record fee. He's not that good.

Everyone's prices are well over inflated and talking world record fees, I'd say he's achieved double of what Pogba has so far in their careers and is twice as good as him adding that this summer is crazy he is THAT good. None of these players are worth anywhere near what clubs are paying at the moment but if I had unlimited funds I'd rather pay £200m for Neymar than £90 for Pogba, plus Pogba this summer would actually be going for about £120-150m. Put it this way they are the same age roughly and people are saying judge Pogba in a year or two when he's fully developed, PSG are paying that for the finished article, Utd paid that for his current ability but also potential.

[Numero Veinticinco]

I guess we just disagree on this one, gents.

[cuppatea]

I'm not sure Suarez being a level above Neymar is a view held by anyone but Uruguay and Liverpool fans, who have only just begun to reluctantly accept that Luis might not be better than Messi.

[Jockey]

Well other than liverpool and Uruguay fans, everyone else is fucking wrong! Aren't they? : )

[Hades]

Missed out on a Fred joke here. By your high standards, you'd be expected to score that.

[cloggypop]

You are blatantly ignoring Ajax fans there.

[El Dangerous]

He'll be disappointed when he looks back at that.

"PSG owners after purchasing Neymar for €222 million" : https://twitter.com/NotoriousFooty/status/888818792179957760

[Jenson]

PSG aren't actually buying him though are they. The Qatari government are paying him £300m to be a World Cup ambassador, £220m of that Neymar is using to buy out his contract, keeping the rest tax free, and is joining PSG on a fucking free transfer! Then he's going to get paid over 500K a week after tax for the next 5 years! The world is fucked.
