It's actually 100,000 times what we got for Dembele.... Is he 100, 000 times better?


Maths not your strong point?

100000x100000 is 10 billion!

PSG  payed £200 million for Neymar so half of that for Ronaldo is a better deal.

BUT

Football has gone mad with transfer fees and wages paid.

Oh yes of course... I had it in my head that he'd gone for £1000 🤔... I blame this Turkish sunshine and spirit levels!

1000 times what we got for Dembelle--the rich have got too much money and getting richer by the minute. Time a cap was put on wealth.  With that money we could say "Thankyou" to J.S.F. 50 times or build 3 good stadiums


Transfer fees and football doesn't work that way does it. There are what I would class as average players now in the Premier League that are being bought and sold for £20-30m. Look at the transfer fees that Robbie Savage commanded when he was playing, not at this sort of level but clubs were prepared to may millions for him. The world of transfer fees has gone mad, but with ticket prices and sponsorship deals going up it ultimately the fans that pay for it.

If an company with the turnover of Juve bought a computer system for £100m that was expected to last 3-5 years before being replaced, then nobody would be greatly surprised. The only difference is in the case of football the biggest assets are human beings.

Real Madrid I think are looking at Mbappe and Neymar now. Be interesting to see how much either of these two go for if not both?

Well PSG only just signed Mbappe permanently after having him on loan last season so I doubt he'll be leaving. Neymar on the other hand.. surely PSG will only be letting him go for a higher amount than the £200m they paid for him.

Doing a bit of work while you're out there?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Thing is from media reports in Spain Neymar wants to go from Psg with Madrid being his favoured option.
