Neymar should've stayed at barca as the understudy a little more. He's already into all the silly show boat tricks and being a punk on the field. There's a chance he might lose his way getting spoilt in the uber rich club.

My view is the exact opposite. Neymar is easily the most entertaining player of his generation. I'm so glad he got out of Barca before they could kill that streak in him. He's been absolutely amazing to watch for PSG so far. When you are that good you're allowed to show it.

Agree 100%

Doesn't mean he has to be be a Primadona though.

Yes he could've become boring to watch, like Messi. 

Cavani seems like a guy with a ridiculously big ego. I know all top footballers have an ego, but it's particularly noticeable with him. He also seems somewhat cursed to be the fall-guy.

Based on this past week's incident?
I have a lot of sympathy for cavani, his whole game was ruined shoving him off to the wing when he was fresh off of a world class season in italy. Almost like ramsey. He's entitled to take penalties, especially over a new club arrival.

you serious? I find messi's efficiency more entertaining and don't like fancy pointless tricks in narrow games. Neymar also has a streak in him to go for glory and is already missing many easy chances. Luckily he's in a weak league with no competition-always gonna have that asterisk to his achievements there. Would've been so much more fun to beat madrid at barcelona. 
Time will tell.

5 days later

Looks like Ancelotti will be sacked this afternoon.

Bayern look pretty average these days, even when they beat us 10-2. Their whole team just looks old and tired.

I never understood the decision of Ribery, who is old and busted, over Douglas Costa.

It was because Douglas Costa was absolutely terrible after his first few months, while Ribery was pretty great. 

Good move. Both parties looked like they'd had enough of each other.

Bayern will go for Nagelsmann now

[font=Source Sans Pro]Ribery remained injury-prone as evidenced by his benching the other night.[/font]
[font=Source Sans Pro]Maybe Costa was terrible on purpose after the way Hoeness labelled him a mercenary when he asked for a pay rise.[/font]

[font=Source Sans Pro]He probably found out he was underpaid compared to his teammates so went through the motions.[/font]
[font=Source Sans Pro]Both sides lost as Bayern have been average ever since resulting in the coach losing his job.[/font]

Every coach who doesn't win the Champions League gets labeled average and gets fired by Bayern. 😆
