Got the Paulinho vibes of ending up back in European football for a rather large fee for a few years, and then reverting back to China for an equally large fee.
Talisca | Scores hat trick on debut
- Thread starter MyOnlySolskjaer
- Start date
Paulinho, Oscar, Hulk.....Brazilians who realized they weren't quite good enough for the very top so legged it to China to get superstar wages. Talisca no different.
I'd do the same.
If that's the case at 24, no brainer. Would be secured for life and get to enjoy millionaire life.
Yeah, who can blame them. Plus how good are dumplings?
Dumplings are pretty good I reckon.
Dumplings like eating slime
Anyone who wouldn’t take money as an average “employee” is talking shit
If your a mechanic on 35k a year in London and you got offered 100k a year to move to not London you would take it so don’t know why people get so up in arms over it.
First goal was impressive. Second goal looks like a keeping error.
United fans can stop drooling over this guy - I'm surprised this wasn't picked up here earlier but supposedly his going to China is part of a pre-arranged deal that will see him move to Watford in January (supposedly Benfica didn't want to sell him this summer as Besiktas would have then been due a cut of the transfer):

A bit of a bonkers situation if true, but as a Watford fan I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it comes to fruition.

Well that's me going to bed devastated tonight, then.
You need twice-cooked dumpings. Pan fried after cooking. No slime.
Chinese league is not his level. Very dumb career management. Should be at least in some middle table club in some top league.
But most probably very clever financial management.
How about you read the post I'd made just 3 above yours?!
Do you want to work for Google with disruptive technology for £100k a year or do you want a minimal-effort 9-5 job for £300k a year? Hmm...
Will be interesting to see him in the PL if true.
Yum.
I once witnessed my brother eat 50 fried dumplings in one sitting. He said he couldn't taste anything after about 30. We then went out and got some cake after. True story.
What is this doing in a thread about Talisca?
Analogy to criticism of players who go to China over pursuing far-fetched, low-likelihood boyhood dreams.
10 goals in 8 games so far.
Edit: 11 in 8.

Something not quite right with this transfer, like the Paulinho transfer.
