Apparently Messi deleted all pictures with Neymar from his instagram.
Epic trolling.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss Amad saving our blushes in a win against Southampton as well as our now annual loss at home to Brighton. They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.

If theyre signing neymar for huge money then they must be looking at moving on a forward or two. Might be a good time to bjd on moura.
Real are still better, mainly due to Ronaldo.
Over/Under by the time Neymar retires the amount of transfer fees + wages involving him would cross 1 billion Euros?
Neymar would score 40 each league season in France? Maybe 50 once or twice?
Real also have Kroos+Modric vs the sole Verratti and more secure full backs and GK. Zidane has also proven more than Emery at the very top level.
All true
Strongly doubt that. In the last 25 years only Zlatan and now Cavani have reached 30 league goals, with Zlatan scoring 38 in his best goal scoring season. Both of them are strikers and given that Neymar is a winger, I'd say 30/35 league goals at best.
Still don't get why he'd leave Barcelona for the French league except for the money, pretty lame really.
Well, he and his father never made it a secret that they care a lot about money.
Neymar isn't a winger in the Giggs style winger of old. He's an outside forward like Ronaldo for United and Real in the past. He's more dynamic than Cavani and Ibrahimovic IMO. Much quicker, better close control, more tricks, etc. I believe 40 league goals would be within shot.
That's the driving force really.
Cavani and Zlatan are not even close to Neymar's level. If Neymar joins PSG, I have no doubt that he would score at least 40 goals a season. Probably 50 over, Messi/Ronaldo like numbers.
Nah Indian super league is the best in the world.
Seemingly cares a lot about the big wages and bonuses being offered and his quest to be the big fish; his father also seems to be obsessed with riches. I think Neymar also covets winning awards in the same sense as Ronaldo does, which would also make his brand bigger = more money.
There's a lot of smoke in this one, but I think PSG, like us, are being taken for mugs.
So you're thinking this is to get a massive wage boost at Barca?
Messi won't be happy being paid second best.
Next year Messi will dream of playing for City, and then get a wage boost too.
I feel if he was just after a pay rise, our name would of been mentioned by now.
Feel like Barca are getting shafted either way tbh, if he joins PSG they lose a world class player and will get fleeced for any replacements as the selling clubs will know they've got 220M sitting in the account.
If he stays, they're going to have to give him a ridiculous contract, on par with Messi and it's going to suck them dry. They'll not be able to spend as much improving the squad as they want to.

It depends how he's utilised. If he plays as a LW in a 433, I'd say next season anyway he'd get close to 30 league goals.
But my point was both of them are strikers and play up front as opposed to Neymar. I wasn't questioning whether they were superior to Neymar as a footballer. Well either way, it's difficult to guess how many goals a player moving to a new league will score. On top of that I reckon Neymar will sign a new contract and stay at Barca.
In terms of pure goalscoring ? What makes you say that ?
I've been very clear since March that now is the time to cash in before the club further erodes catering to the whims of Jr & Sr.
I would have the same mentality as you. Barca is the 2nd biggest club in the world, they shouldnt be held ransom by anyone.
He would be the perfect Ronaldo replacement at Madrid.
What?
If you look at both teams there isn't much between them really, Madrid have a better midfield but the options PSG have in attack would be unmatched anywhere IF they signed neymar and sanchez. Imagine having the luxury of bringing on draxler/di maria and moura when defenders are tired from chasing around that front four. I for one don't think they will sign both players but a strike force that will probably score around 100 goals will beat a team with better midfielders.
Him and his greedy father are scum bags. Hope he flops hard.
Always known he loves money but he also an ambitious enough fellow who would want to be the best so I still don't see him leaving for a team like PSG. Hopefully!
I think PSG stance on Veratti has shown that any player that signs a long contract with them better be prepared to see it out. They have so much money that there really isn't an amount that will persuade them to give up a player unless they want to - they're clearly trying to establish PSG as a world player and won't accept anything that will damage their reputation.
For that reason alone I would think very carefully if I was Neymar because once he signs that contract he is stuck there. No other team will be able to afford him - so he'd better be bloody sure that the French league is where he wants to be...

Real also have the likes of Isco/Bale (depending who you think is the "sub"), Assensio to bring on, and they're almost certain to sign replacements for James and Morata.
They have the better first team, although PSG may have the better squad if they sign both whilst Real sign no one.
Any danger that we could lose Herrera to Barca in the aftermath of all of this? It worries me that we still haven't tied he and Pereira down to long term contracts.
barca should have treated him better. continuously putting messi on a bigger leaf than him shows where they stand, given a 30 year old a 500k contract yet he's meant to be the future etc.... don't blame him for leaving barca. going to the french league is a joke though
What happens if PSG fail FFP if they do sign Neymar? Or would they have to sell players to meet requirements to be able to participate in the Champions League?
Money would be one of course. He already won every thing that can be offer at club level. Staying in Barcelona &a Large Liga it's harder to overcome Messi &a Ronaldo for the individual award. He can make better claim keeping a distance from Ronaldo & Messi. Playing in less France would give him more leeway so he can rest &a focus for WC too.
It's too late for Neymar to overcome Messi & Ronaldo in term of record breaking stuff, so IMO he needs to do it in style to leave a mark for his career. Winning CL with PSG can be that, while as I said above, leaving more juice in the tank for WC playing in French league than draining top league.

Messi is the best player to ever kick a ball though so there is that.
Anything can happen, so I wouldn't say no danger. Realistically, they would find a hard time replacing Neymar, on the pitch & marketibility value. IMO in long term they would lose more than any fee & saving they receive from Neymar if they can't his replacement. Replacing him is high order.
Barcelona can come knocking but we're not a selling meaning they would have to pay over the odd for the chance of getting our players. Herrera doesn't seem like a guy who fall for Barcelona.
Supposedly PSG are going to give Neymar the money to buy out his contract and then sign him, I don't know how that will work with FFP.
Is this done yet?
Mon woody 50M on sanchez let the goonies buy Mbappe or.... pluck someone from obscurity like nearly always.

100% agree with you there...but he's also 30. Neymar is 25. Both are rediculously talented. Not saying Barca made a mistake by giving him the contract they did...but then also you can't blame Neymar for being fed up being in his shadow for the last 4 years and having had enough of it.
If you were looking long term, they've made a mistake...just my opinion.
Barca were caught between a rock and a hard place this time and think it might come back to haunt them...last time it was a similar situation to this they let Ronaldinho go and trusted youth more...
