The answer is he has got the raw talent to be world class , is he worth 21 million and will he settle in england quickly well that is another matter and a big gamble at the price , still if you do not gamble you do not win .
It is looking like we might get a deal which is performance related appearance related which is the way to go .

I'm afraid because Andersson was called the next Ronaldhino but ..... still not at that level. Now another player being called the next Ronaldhino

He is good or not but it matter only when he is in Manchester United shirt.

Interesting insight from a Brazilian blog.

Are Manchester United being conned over Douglas Costa? Pitaco do gringo’s Brazilian football blog

An interesting read. Everyone is creaming over a youtube video. The guy has made 15 appearances and has a nice little youtube video, well worth 20 million.

[stretty]

it doesnt matter now anyway , there are no more signings

[Ozblu3]

£20m, they must be mad.. I read somewhere that we're trying for 7m cash upfront + £x based on appearances and progression..

[Ozblu3]

Oh, and, I hope he can make good quality Laté..

The agent of Douglas Costa admits Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson wants to see the Gremio midfielder in trials before discussing a fee.

Cesar Bottega said: "There has been more contact (with Ferguson), even to know why he isn't currently playing.

"Ferguson has studied him closely. But it is clear he wants to confirm what people have told him up close."

For now, however, Gremio refuse to allow Costa to trial at Old Trafford.

It seems more and more like they are trying to con us with this deal, if he's as good as they say he is, or worth what they recon then they would let him have a trial and take the cash, 20 million for an 18 yr old kid is a hell of a lot of money. Especially for an unproven player like him.

What do you mean even the scouts have not seen him live , surely they will have built up a dossier on him .
Fergies brother and jap stam were out in brazil for ages ,i think united are trying it on and going for a pay as you play deal

[abojodeh]

fergie was talking about stupid money

and this is a stupid money

20m is an insane price for a 18 year old boy

i hope we don't waste our money on him, even tho i know he can turn good but 20m is far from sane
and we have plenty wingers

maybe we should look after delph

[RN10]

Good shout abo, i for one would love us to get fabien delph he is quality, i think too that we have enough wingers.

[Carlo]

Didn't I read somewhere that Delph was off to Everton? I may be wrong

we paid 28 million for rooney

[Carlo]

I don't eat that much, I'm a skinny fecker!!

we paid 28 million for rooney

Bit of a difference though, we could see Rooney was class already, this lad hardly even gets games for his club and their fans have also said they can't understand the price.

[abojodeh]

rooney was exceptional

he was an international
he knew how to play in this league
he is english (which would make a bit overpriced)
there were other clubs competing for his signature


on the other hand we paid 13 for ronaldo

like i said stam and fergies brother were in brazil for ages , they must have seen him play if they did not and he couldnt make the team why are united interested in him
