On Off On Off I can't take it no Moura!

That'll have nothing to do with him not starting tonight. He's not an automatic starter for Brazil. Nothing will disturb his preparations for the Olympics.

I do agree though that SAF or David Gill or both will meet with Lucas and/or his agent at some point before the week is out.

Goal.com is worse than The Sun.

No it isn't. The Sun is the sole founder of media sensationalism. Goal.com hasn't quite reached that level yet but they are trying their damn hardest to get there!

Brazil play tonight? What channel?

Sky channel 452.

I'd say it'll probably be on the red button on the BBC on the main programme for the Team GB game as well but BBC Olympic 3 is where I've seen it and on Eurosport.

I believe it's more a case of not rushing his development in terms of not starting for Brazil, plus Hulk is one of their experienced players

Eurosport will do. Rather watch Brazil than England and Wales.

I've seen Lucas play for the firsts so it isn't because he isn't good enough, more a case of Hulk being one of their 3 over 23's and Neymar, Oscar and probably Pato taking the other slots which makes a better balance.

We always keeps it as nervous as it can get i guess. While other clubs sort these things out paying overprice we stuck with our prinsipes and make it the hard way. In long term thats what keeps us up, City have made 20 easy signings, but now it starting to struggle

I genuinely don't care if we get him or not anymore. I want RVP and a CM and that would be a great summer in my eyes. Lucas could be good, but we have a Nani for all that jazz.

Pretty much how I see it. Moura may be amazing but I've never seen him play so I'm not really fussed.

But I hope we don't end up regretting not signing him when we had the chance if he ends up justifying the hype.
