Neymar reiterated this week that he is staying in Brazil until after the WC. His local sponsorship deals ensure that he doesn't need to go to Europe for the money. He is the most marketable sportsman in the world.

Who said he's the most marketable sportsman in the world ??

Messi , Ronaldo I'm sure are way out in front of that guy

Fire in Tiger Woods , Rory McElroy , Floyd Mayweather , Sebastian Vettel , Rafa Nadal, Usain Bolt

Nonsense

He will get shown up for how average he is when he finally does come over

Flashes of tricks and the odd wonder goal , just another hyped up south American

I read something about the French league forcing Monaco to put there headquarters in France so they would have to pay tax , although it was the daily mail i read it in .

If that happened though I assume it would stop the possibility of all these players going

They would have some team if they get the players who they are linked to

Just having a look through French sites.

Announced emphatically side AS Monaco, Radamel Falcao would according to the regional press is already committed to join the asémiste training next season.

Thursday evening, Javier Gomez, journalist La Sexta , announced Radamel Falcao close to Monaco. An announcement had confirmed the revelations made ​​by Le 10 Sport in the month of March. AS was confirmed by the Saturday following information but providing few details, such as the anti-Real Madrid clause (note: the Colombian come six months before joining the Rock the Casa Blanca in January). And while the Colombian would commit for a period of five years for an annual salary of ten million euros, a new element a little more credibility to this track.

It will be interesting how many players there are going to buy. Surely they don't have enough/are willing to spend enough money to buy a whole world class squad? I suspect they will do an Anzhi, spend all their money on one or two coveted players in among mid table drivel instead of buying 6/7 top, emerging talents.

I reckon if Chelsea sign Cavani they will challenge for title and could even win it. No disrespect to Moyes but it was a miracle that Man Utd won the title this season and probably due only to a very off-form City team for most of the season. Aguero injured and Hart, Toure, Kompany and Silva way off-form.

Bring in a decent manager like Mourinho and sign Cavani and I think they would do it.
