Arsenal fan weighs in on Neymar transfer saga with utterly ludicrous ‘unpopular opinion’

Posted by

See below as this Gooner, Paul, responds to a tweet about the latest on Neymar’s potential transfer to Real Madrid or Barcelona this summer.

While it’s true that Neymar is not at the best point of his career after a difficult two years at Paris Saint-Germain, it seems pretty clear he’d improve this Arsenal side.

And of course, it’s also true that Aubameyang and Lacazette are quality players and have been a joy to watch together at the Emirates Stadium.

Still, most sensible people would surely send both packing if there were a chance to sign a genuine world-beater like Neymar. Surely?

Neymar: Not as good as Arsenal’s strikers, apparently…

The Brazil international is capable of moments of skill and brilliance unlike most in world football, and would bring experience to a Gunners squad that could only dream of winning as many trophies as he has.
