We would be better off spending the money on Aguero,If Santos are gonna quote a stupid price of 41 mil for Neymar.

41m for Neymar does seem very excessive. But then again, the whole market is very inflated at the moment. Maybe that's what it's going to take to get that sort of player.

Looks like our interest in Godin could be true, player says he is open to a move to Chelsea.

Personally if we can get Godin for 12-15M i'd be more than happy with that. Think he's an excellent player and has been solid for Atletico for the past 2 seasons and easily one of there unsung hero's at the back.

Only 25 as well.

Well 1 seasons at Athletico and the season before at Villareal, sorry.

I think he'd be happy aslong as he was making atleast 25-30 apps in all competitions, which i don't thinks is unreasonable even for a squad player. Plus covering for any injuries which occur etc.

If Bruma goes on loan for 2 seasons which is looking likely, and there's any injuries to Alex/Terry/Ivan, we'll be short at the back in terms of depth and cover.

Godin would be a great signing,funny litlle talk we had about him yesterday.
Neymar hints a Real Madrid move,bloody hell make your mind up.

Gazza - There's no reason why he wouldn't be a regular if he puts the work in. If he puts it in during training and ends up putting in better performances than say Alex etc i don't think there's any reason why he couldn't be more of a starter than a squad player.

I think Neymar's enjoying the attention to be honest, it's like a mini power trip with him and his agent, especially since clubs like Chelsea/Barca/Real are interested.

If we got Lukaku & Sneijder, i wouldn't be as fussed about missing out on Neymar to be honest.

I have lost interest in this Neymar saga. Dragged for too long. If we get him, great. If not I'm sure someone else will come along.

Back in a bit

I think we should offer money+player(kalou or malouda) for Aguero,forget about Neymar.

Reportedly they would have accepted 30mil for Aguero. But I thought we had bid that for him before, so not sure how true that would be.

They rejected a 40mil bid from us in January,they won't accept 30mil in my opinion.

Mhm, that's why I thought.

All these amusing 20-25m transfers united and pool are looking at. Makes Torres look a good buy.

good value buy*

Chelsea linked with Moussa Dembele for 15M.

Na i don't see that happening.

Wouldn't be surprised if Inter asked for Lampard or Essien to be honest.

I'm not keen on having hughes as manager just for the mere fact that Kia Joorabchian is his agent.
