The housing market earlier is simple. It’s all supply and demand. The more houses the cheaper the price. The less houses available then the higher the prices because demand is high and supply is low.

The 'fat' suarez who they made the scapegoat for messi not being able to run and make passes, has now 5 goals in laliga for athleti. If this trend continues, nobody can save barca anytime soon. Neymar realised this and left on time. Barca fans called him a snake and made fun of him and now they want the same neymar back. But the sad reality is they wont be able to get him anymore and it was a wise decision from neymars side. Neymar performs great in clutch situations and thats what they always needed. See how Barca's true fall started after neymar left, not even xavi and iniesta.

Actually barcas downfall began in the first leg against psg before the remontada. Everybody seems to forget that. This was the beginning of the downfall

Neymar's arrival benefitted him and psg .he likes challenges like Ronaldo ,unlike Messi who is scared to leave for new challenges

[@edmann1820]

All of these comments that this ruined the transfer market. They said the same about Trevor Francis being the first £1m player. Or, Alan Shearer for £15m. They said the same about Figo and Zidane only a year apart. The transfer market has been wildly inflating since the 1960's. Neymar is just the same as the rest. If anything it's less shocking than those transfers were.

[@FlapjackGTHD]

I feel Barca were doomed either way. They gave up their methods which got them to the top just so they could stay on top.

Unfortunately neymar got a downward spiral as well. He was surrounded by younger players that was less dissaplined then the barca players and throws parties instead of practicing.

this transfer also dramatically raised the average cost of players and increased the gap between small and big clubs. Now even spending 80m on a player can be considered average on players such as Maguire. This really did change football both on the pitch and off.

@Jonathan you do realize that the market was already building in that direction before this transfer right? Did you forget Ronaldo to Madrid 8 years before it?

Funnily enough, Barcelona suffered most due to players' value inflation. Griezmann at 105, Dembele at 120, Coutinho at 145, Semedo, Arthur etc Splurged 1 billion since 2017 for a set of players that in all fairness should've cost 300 million at most
