I imagine if Neymar signs with Barca, Griez is screwed andleft hanging. He'll either have to beg PSG or run back to Atleti with his tail between his legs.

Neymar swooped in and derailed that man's entire plan.

MSN is probably in their group chat laughing at Griezmann on a daily basis.

I'm personally disappointed in Neymar, I know money was a factor in the PSG move but the other motivation I felt was to separate himself from Messi and build his own castle. I really thought he could do it too.

He's Tyrese in Baby Boy

He basically had carte blanche to do anything he wanted at PSG but couldn't handle that freedom and the responsibility that came with it. Opted to go back to a regime like Barcelona

just the stadiums are empty for now

That's the one thing the WC and Euros has over Copa America, AFCON and the rest; the stadium and ambience. Those tournaments fill out stadiums because 1. It's the WC so people show up just for the occasion 2. Europe is a richer and smaller continent with better infrastructure so people can afford the travel. Also helps that the Euros is in summer when people are on holiday.

If Egypt isn't in the AFCON final then I wouldn't be surprised if the stadium is half filled. Even these Copa America matches that don't involve Brazil are mad empty.

I've enjoyed AFCON so far, can't wait to watch more games.

Yep. African football is really developing from a technical standpoint. We just need to improve the mental toughness to see out big games.

That Nigeria vs. Argentina WC match is the prime example of lacking mental fortitude to hold tight until the final whistle.

Don't feel right that a player like Ndombele is going to tottenham. He's going to regret it. I seen this dude's performances last season. Played well against Barca and PSG. Should be playing for Madrid, barca, liverpool etc, not fukking tottenham. He'd complement Pogba at Man U very well and would be amazing at City.

If this is his choice then he's a fukking idiot. If he wants to leave they'll demand something stupid like 120 million.
