BEANO_BRFC Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Hope Belgium destroy Brazil in the quarters if they get past Japan, cannot believe in 4 matches Neymar the cheat hasnt been booked or sent off for diving and faking injury, hes never on his feet. Hope someone gives him a reason to be on the floor sooner or later. Most overated player in the sport, £200 million my arse. Utter c##t. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Neymar is worth 200 mil then Mbappe must be double that, Neymar is average at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also agree that the likes of Neymar have their values grossly exaggerated due to the press. Still though, I can't wait to see that touchline incident made into a gif like this one: Edited July 2, 2018 by Zolkovo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zidane's era wasn't so long ago.Teams where spending a lot of money then, i remember Ferdinand,Vieri,Mendieta,Buffon, their transfers were around 50 mil That dive though reminded me Rivaldo's from 2002 in the corner kick Edited July 2, 2018 by sephiroth4424 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While inflation alone doesn't account for the price tag increases, you have to consider the money such names bring to the club in return through big brands, fan-base, image rights, media endorsements, merchandise etc. So with the increasing inflation and football being treated as a market for advertisement of goods and services, there is a huge inflow of cash in this sport with billionaire tycoons, advertisement sponsors, media outlets, major sports brands ready to infuse ridiculous amounts of capital to reach an enormous audience. The net cost ends up being relatively similar, if not less. Edited July 2, 2018 by Zolkovo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ates_97 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Exactly, plus its not exactly like Neymar, Pogba etc are the ones causing the price-tags. They know that is far too much money to equate to a player but football is a business now and the players are just a cog in a massive system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zolkovo Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I celebrated Japan's goals almost like they were England's. Japan deserved more, well played from those lads who gave everything on the pitch despite the gulf in difference on paper.

Maxximum Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 What a comeback, what a great match. Japan deserved to win, but I knew Belgium would succeed despite conceding 2 goals in the second half. Now Brazil has a challenge. Hopefully England gives us another awesome match. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
