Another one of those players everyone who plays FM knew about for a few years, UTD are interested to the tune of 26mn. [video=youtube;bL4_xKrs2Xw]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bL4_xKrs2Xw[/video] ****ing hell is looks alright - Not since fatty Ronaldo have I seen a brazilain with this combanation of ball skills, speed and decent strength. Who knows how he will translate over here but still looks a player and a half. Not saying we should/will get him but I wouldn't mind him by half.
Yeah but they always do in the end only one who has held out for more than a season or 2 is Neymar, the other popular ones all moved. If not to UTD then probs to big Spanish or Italian Clubs (also the work permit is less of an issue). On another note can't get over that video , youtube compilation or not.
Brazil is getting richer and richer as a Nation and football is immensely popular there. Soon the best talent will not have to move away to earn BIG money. Moura is good but Neymar is better.
He would frustrate the hell out of me, fantastic pace and power, unbelievable dribbling skills and tricks, great shot but can`t seem to make a final pass after all his good work!
Alot like C Ronaldo was when he first arrived at United. Brazil are on the up again... Oscar, Ganso, Marcelo, Silva, Moura and Neymar. Great mixture of power and technical ability. They will be a force again by the time the next World Cup comes along.
If we were getting him I'd be concerned with his selfish nature of play and his lack of passing. I'd also be concerned that in the Premier League defenders from teams like Stoke would aim for him, not the ball, and I'd wonder how he'd deal with that.
Moura is being seriously overrated here. He has failed to deliver for his club and his style has been criticized a lot by his ex-club manager and loads of people in Brazil. He is too much of a head down and run merchant and he is nowhere near Neymar, who really is the main man in Brazil.
I'm not really all that surprised to be honest, doesn't seem like he has much to his game other than dribbling and long shots. Would much rather have Ganso.
Lets not forget that he is only 18(?) and I remember the exact criticism labelled at Ronaldo (CR). He will get better, less selfish especially under a great manager. He has the attributes to be a wonderful player, shot, finishing, dribbling, speed, strength I appreciate he has to do that on the big stage and finish off these runs with goals/crosses but the kid seems to have a lot of natural talent like Neymar, Ganso, Oscar and others this new generation of brazilians seem to have a lot of talent (lets see how they develop). I don't know much about Brazilian football but if we are making comparisms over clips and youtube Ganso really doesn't look that great or strong just looks like a decent CM/AM nothing particularly impressive. But people in the know what do you think?
Why are you two comparing him (Lucas, don't call him Moura) to Neymar when they play in different positions? Be honest - how many of you in here have seen him play?
Saw him play a few times. Watched probably his best performance for Brazil when he came on as a sub against the Scots at our ground. Lucas plays on the right mainly for his club and Neymar starts from the left but drifts everywhere. They are not like for like for but they are attacking players who normally start in the front three for Brazil or their clubs. The reason I compared him to Neymar is because he is getting the hype that he does not deserve and when you compare him to someone like Neymar (similar age) then he has done nothing in Brazil.
