[lefty]

Ah glad ah could give allyuh ah Davy Jenny moment of laughter,but I didn't look at the date and didn't know Neymar's full name,like all good Trinis laughing at people seems to be what allyuh best at,sometimes take a look at yourself,allyuh who love to laugh not so special.I didn't think for a minute it was Neymar,this player looked black,so I obviously thought it was a new Brazillian player,but why should I explain to you lot,allyuh seem to be great keyboard warriors,ah giving credit where it's due.

dread relax

I expect correction,that is what I will do.I never laugh at people's mistake.Trinis are the most educated and sophisticated people in the world,we are different in many ways.Anyway I have done a lot of posting on this site,and don't normally get any response,this one where I posted,and was wrong in my response,gave you blokes some comic relief,at least I gave you all a bit of laughter enjoy it.
Don't worry,I haven't taken it that seriously because I have understood this MB since the day I joined,lets hope we beat China.

Mate,I've lived in England most of my life,and if I couldn't laugh at myself I wudda dead wid stress by now.The fact I did a shitty post ,and got laughed at was OK to an extent ,but none of the boys even attempted to correct me.I don't know how many posts I've made on this MB ,but I hardly ever get any response,not that it bothers me,as long as I give an opinion I'm happy with that,but this post about Neymar brought the house down,which was understandable up to a point.I have family who duz come to England and dem laugh at me,and mock some of the tings I do or say so I am aware of Trini culture,ah sometimes have to ask why allyuh laughing,they respond with "it awrite man,doh worry"

This man transfer fee was over 2x as much as Pogba and he's making over 30 mil a year, surprised PSG can afford that.

You still surprised?

QSI have money to burn. I watchin Barca scramble to replace him.

Didn't know the owner owned that company but I think PSG will have to prove to UEFA that they are able to make the payments through the business of the club i.e. Ticket sales, merchandise, TV, etc. I was surprised that they were generating that type of revenue when PSG is not a top 5 club and the French League is not even in the top 3 in Europe.

[Deeks]

Oh, how wonderful it is too have over 300 million in discretionary income aka pocket change for the mega-rich.

[Sam]

Overprice

[real madness]

Overprice

players overpriced for a while now.  Pogba is another example.

[Deeks]

If you willing to pay that amount for a player, then that is going rate. That is the "stupidity" of economics. Take it or leave it.

yeah it is all about market price. although Neymar can be considered overprice that it the going rate now.  As you said take it or leave it.  teams trying to win will take it.  look at Mbappe, got talent but not much of  along track record can probably cost as much as Neymar if Real willing to pay.

[Deeks]

Real madness, this transfer season is real madness. Pun intended. Imagine when Maradona transferred to Barsa, 5 million was the world record fee. When he went to Napoli for 5.9 mil, that was the record fee then. Somebody go end up  in St Ann's.

[palos]

How much revenue does football generate?

TV rights
Sponsorship deals
Merchandising

etc etc

The transfer fees are just that.  Transfer fees.  They aren't salaries.  That PSG is willing to pay that amount for Neymar is indication of the revenue that football brings in.

If the revenue doesn't go to the principals....i.e. the players and clubs.....who should it go to?

Allyuh would be comfortable with say 20 million for Neymar and Qatar Investment Sports pocket the rest?


PSG gets who they think will be, and may already be very close to being, the best player on the planet.

Barca gets 220 Million Euro in return

I'm sure both think it's good business for each.  PSG's goal is to win the Champions League.  With Neymar added to their squad, they believe he can take them over the top into thatt tippy top tier of Real, Barca, and Bayern

I like their ambition.  And I wouldn't put it past them to become Champions League Champions in 2018

Hope somebody give the kids back in Sao Paulo a lil something something too
