We already have the next Neymar.

The next Neymar could dance his way to Liverpool and Anfield should be excited

What can we expect from South America's latest star Talles Magno if he arrives at Anfield

hmm does Neymar really put the ball straight at the keeper that often ?

 

[mgarbowski]

Did not realize this lol. Next Neymar and actual Croatian Neymar are slightly different though. Would be funny if Croatian (or whatever we end up signing) Neymar is a better scorer than Brazilian next Neymar

Let's just collect all the Neymars: real, next, Croatian, Albigensian.

So I assume then that no one knows where Neymar's plane landed?

FWIW, I'm not sure how I feel about the rumor, other than curious. I think he could easily become a dominant scorer and talisman ala Villa. He could also be oft injured.

Ah, sport.

I see no updates, and nothing is reliable. This report says he's probably going back to PSG because Barcelona doesn't want him.

Explained: The two reasons why Barcelona have ruled out bringing Neymar back to Camp Nou from PSG | Goal.com US

Neymar was offered to Barcelona by his agent but the reigning La Liga champions refused to take the Brazilian back.

But it also builds off the Threads version of the Instagram post I shared, which is the same except it adds "season 23/24" after the Partiu and French flag. But the article interprets Partiu season to mean party season. Which, I only know what google translate says, but if you put partiu into the translate box with "detect language" chosen, it suggests Brazilian Portuguese and says it means "left." So I don't trust that article for anything. OTOH, maybe he left Brazil to go to France for the 23-24 season. On the gripping hand, I take amusement reading how the absolute top superstars have basically priced themselves out of almost everywhere except clubs who don't want them or places they don't want to live.

Damn I would love to get some actual NYCFC news about anyone.

I just checked and Talles came in third last year. My bold predictions is he fails to do as well next time. Chanot and Keaton were 1 and 2 and odds on favorites to repeat, maybe switching places. New additions will be wild cards.

Expect plenty of love for Sands, Gaby, Barazza.

Frankly, if we are being fair our entire defense should get lots of love.

Meanwhile, even the Taty chatter has dried up.

…isn’t his loan up?

did I suggest it isn’t?

 

[LionNYC]

Seriously, if a buyer doesn't come through, what happens? Another loan to Girona?

David Lee and CFG have 23 days to sell Taty and buy a replacement. Otherwise, there's no hope in salvaging this season. We miss the playoffs, I want some scalps.

They have to sell him, even if half price. I’m concerned they won’t buy until the sale is done and there are too many moving parts and counterparties mucking things up.
I’m not concerned they’ll do nothing but very concerned they’ll scramble to do anything for the sake of doing something.
Doing nothing might lose 20% of season ticket holders even though people are partly paid for 2024.

I’d just like to know David Lee has a pulse. At least we hear from Cushing about most things, even if he just trots out the company line about finding the right player.

We have bizarro Neymar.

It's funny how 10am is almost always the time of day the team announces signings. I would love to know the reasoning behind it. Not 10:01, not 9:59 ... 10:00am. You can set your watch to it.

I hope he proves me wrong but his numbers aren’t exactly eye popping nor the fact that he’s only managed u23 and not full Algeria Caps from what I’m seeing ? I know we need bodies in general but if he’s the biggest signing of the window consider me under whelmed .
