Since the back end of last week Spanish media, alongside British media have latched onto the idea that Neymar will sign for Manchester United

According to "The Sun" (which has always been an endorsement for legitimate news - sarcasm intended) the brazilian international could be on the way to Manchester in a big money move.

While most level headed football fans can take anything "The Sun" says with a pinch of salt, many have reacted in spectacular fashion on Twitter, we present to you the very best of those tweets:

@manutd are not getting @neymarjr so don't even waste time getting excited. If Pedro doesn't come then don't expect Neymar please

Luis Enrique: "Neymar to Man United rumours? I don't talk about rumours, I focus on what happens in my team." #fcblive

Once Neymar has signed, we still have a few days to get Messi and Ronaldo to make friends with each other so they can both play for us too.

There's no chance of Neymar joining Man Utd. They've already signed Ramos, Pedro, Bale & Müller. Can't see them spending money on Neymar too

Grown men genuinely believing the Neymar story. Grown. Men.

These Neymar/ Muller links in the media don't mean we arent after anyone realistic, it means media don't know who, and big names sell papers
