Yes, that is true. But I must tell you that, like with many famous Brazilians, his performances are highly related to his mood. If he's feeling it, he will play a great game, but if he doesn't feel it, he can also frustrate you a lot. Once he ends up in a spot where he loses a bit of his passion for the game, the decline will be swift. Messi and Ronaldo have something different. They perform in a much more controlled and professional way, almost like a dentist going at work every day and doing his dental operations and stuff like that. They have reached a kind of routine of being the best. Neymar isn't there yet, and if that's his ambition I feel he's going to get disappointed soon.

Inter have been taking the piss since day one, we need to tell them to do one.
Well I assume he´ll sign one contract and charge the other team with a 10M dollar negotiation fee.
I won't believe this Neymar stuff until he's photographed in the shirt
With all this transfer talk, suddenly the 100 Million Euros we will likely pay Atletico for Greizmann in January or next summer doesn't seem that pricey after all. He's also among the world's best.
Just pay it. City want to spend upwards of 300m so why are we worried about price. It's not like we have that much time to wait around for targets to become available and at the right price. If Mou wants them and we can get them we should get them. What happens if we have another Griezmann situation next season? I feel uncomfortable with only 3 signings this summer
He's signed a new contract. They'll be asking double that if Neymar deal goes through.
His release clause is still included (According to reports). Must have been one of his demands for staying another year.
Aaaaah ok.
Buyout fee is the exact same
Doesn't he have a buyout clause which hasn't changed in the contract? He got a pay rise. The clause didn't alter.
Seems likely we'll be doing a deal then. It will seem like a bargain indeed.
We really should go for himl
I genuinely have no idea why we're not (unless our interest is just VERY well hidden)
If it's about £50m then we can easily afford him. We need him. And if he's willing to move to Manchester, why not United?
Yeah, considering prices then 50m for him would be a steal. Hopefully it is being done on the dl.
Covered all bases in a single tweet. Impressive.
Yep, plenty of positives even as we are.
Lukaku was second top scorer last year, is younger and more mobile than Ibra. Probably will be a bit easier to rest/rotate occasionally too, whereas with Ibra, apart from the occasional cup game v lower league fodder, it was like a political tightrope to leave him out.
It isn't any sort of "leap" to think Martial, Mhky and Pogba will be better next season. The first two barely played half the season!
Hopefully, the addition of Lukaku means our counter attacking will make us more of a threat in the big aways.
To be fair it is part of his job. I'd do it as a job
He seems more like an aggregator that sometimes passes information as his own. Typical Sky Sports journo.
Answers are amazing, if I posted that tweet, and people answered like that, I'll run away and hide.
i highly doubt arsenal would sell to us or city for that price. surely its 70 million plus. i think they would rather let him go abroad for 50million
What does the fact that City are spending 300 million have to do with us buying Perisic?? It'd be the definition of stupidity if we pay such amounts even in today's market for players like Perisic. And since you mention City they have bought genuine quality players. Silva, Walker, Mendy, Ederson are all quality players ( never really seen Danilo play much). Perisic on the other hand isn't someone whom I'd label a Man Utd quality player. People here moan about Fellaini and Lingard and yet want us to spend 50 million on Perisic with their only argument being that Mourinho wants him. Well if Mourinho wanted him that much I'm pretty sure we would have got him already. The way this has panned out I think Perisic was one of the alternatives we were ready to go to a certain amount for in case all else failed, but he wasn't a priority target.
Good point.
Just the most pointless tweet ever. They might want him, they might not. Brilliant. Easy money being a journo.
Maybe Inter are getting worried that we will walk away from this, hence the change in tone, to me the power has swung back our way and we should stick to our guns price wise.
This could drag on if we think they're trying to fleece us and they think we will eventually capitulate.
Thats it completely forget the manager player dynamic when making the same tired old argument. Ever consider Conte couldnt get the same performances out of Matic that Jose did and maybe Jose knows this? Nah of course you didnt.
Perišić is definitely a smokescreen.
Unless we move on to another target or pay up, this will drag on til August.
I should work for Sky.
A Croat I thought
Yeah, Mourinho went to a Croatia game just so it would be more credible.
That was in, what, April?
