United and liverpool are after the brazilian attacking midfielder Lucas Rodrigues. He is 19, plays for sao paulo, and was voted the best player in the u20's south american championships. fee could be around 20 million. People comparing him with scholes, what does everyone think?
Not a big fan, apart from the twins, but have we ever signed a decent brazilian, espiecally in the middle of the park.

All rumours mate ED has already said there is a very low chance he will come to the prem and is likely to go to italy if anywhere

Fair does!

No one will sell him for less than 30 mill unless he gives in a transfer request and wants to desparately go to his favourite club(neither United nor pool)
Likely to end up at Barca, Madrid or AC.
Nothing like paul scholes, he's incredibly quick though.

I would have the same worries about signing any1 from the brazilian league tbh, if we are going to spend £25m+ on a midfielder let it be someone who has at least shown he can cut it in europe e.g. Erikssen (spelling) or preferrably the likes od Gotze (spelling?)
Ravel morrison is immence talent.. very quick and a true devil..we wont need any1 once3 he and pogba given more chances
Morrison and Pogba have great potential, but neither have rubbed shoulders with the big boys at the top table. They may not look so great with 26 year old Chelsea, City and especially Barcelona Midfielders strutting there stuff around them. Don't get me wrong ,I'd love them to realize the talent they have got, (Tunnicliffe too), but it's early days. In a couple more seasons we'll see! In the mean time we need two midfielders now, a defensive and an offensive ones.
