#NEYMAR

Brazilian forward Neymar is set to smash football’s world transfer record when he completes an expected move from Barcelona to Paris St Germain for £196m, more than double the previous record of £89.3m set by Manchester United last year. @Garylineker said: “Oh Neymar, there is only one direction to go from @Fcbarcelona and that’s backwards” @Footbalifact wrote: “What you could buy for the price of Neymar: three planes, 10 fighter jets, one small island and 792,000,000 small bars of chocolate” @stevesyb offered: “The numbers involved with the Neymar transfer are disgusting. PGS are mental for paying that. He’s not even the best player at Barcá” @Adamwsweeney added: “Neymar is a special talent, no question. But £89m for Pogba now seems like a steal. Incredible footballer with his peak years ahead” @Suzywrack said: “Investment by FA in women’s football this year £17.7m. Neymar’s annual salary £31m. Obscene”

This embarrassing transcript of him begging Nieto to pretend Mexico will pay for #Trumpwall proves it” @mark_novata added: “Trump described the wall as ‘the least important thing we are talking about’. Hey Trump supporters! Any comment? @Imaginaryagenda offered: “You can imagine Trump saying: Just grin and nod about this whole wall idea, OK President Peña Nieto?” @DLHDARA commented: “Reading a Trump transcript is always depressing. This transcript of Trump talking with Mexico’s president is also embarrassing and enraging”
