Is this enough to start a dedicated David Neres thread?
Depends if goal.com is a credible media source. If it's just Twitter then no

If the price is right, I don't think they'll mind too much - after all they have a proper conveyor belt of talent going on.He would be good, but I think Ajax are probably sick to the teeth of us buying their best players and would demand an insane fee.
Just because a player has proven quality elsewhere it doesn't automatically it will work out either. There are plenty like Mikhitaryan at Yanited for example. What we have to realise is that if we buy a £50mil+ player that struggles, then we don't have the spare funds to just go out and buy again to rectify the situation like the real Elite clubs and financially doped clubs do. Just look at how much Sanchez is costing Yanited because HM doesn't fit.
Yeah, we could have had a few more Paulinho/Soldado/Sissokos in there.In terms of opportunity wasted, however, the signings of Llorente, Janssen, Nkoudou, Njie et al have proved to be very costly.
Just imagine what Poch could have achieved over the past couple of years without being hamstrung by Levy’s bargain basement failures.
Presumably the ground staffBy us or them I wonder

Spending money guarantees sweet FA.
The difference is Mikhitaryan at his off form low level is still a decent player who can contribute. He wasn't THAT bad for United and United have still got decent money for him or in this case a top player. When the likes of Nkoudou don't work they contribute nothing and are just a waste of a place in the squad and leaves us light up top.
Thanks for that, your real gripe is why we aren't spending Man City levels of money then?That argument might hold some water if Man City weren't winning the league at a canter.
The best players generally cost the most money, and the teams that win the trophies almost always have the best players.

City & Chelsea have 8 league titles between them and a number of cups.No, my gripe is that we haven't improved the squad adequately when we've been in a position of (unexpected) strength.
We've shopped in the bargain basement and been overtaken by the likes of Liverpool who we absolutely should be competing with financially.
City were just used to illustrate the absurdity of your 'money guarantees fuck all' position.
For me, it's the scouting that's been the problem.Thanks for that, your real gripe is why we aren't spending Man City levels of money then?

They're 2 points above us with 14 games left, get a grip man.No, my gripe is that we haven't improved the squad adequately when we've been in a position of (unexpected) strength.

Agreed and last time I checked we smashed them 4-1 in a stadium that isn't even our home ground and we're due to play them shortly with no reason to believe we can't beat them again.
Tough times hey.
Hilarious how not signing one player who no-one had heard of in the summer causes such fury in some.Agreed and last time I checked we smashed them 4-1 in a stadium that isn't even our home ground and we're due to play them shortly with no reason to believe we can't beat them again.
