THREE World Cup Finalists Arsenal Should Sign

The World Cup semi-finals got off to an unbelievable start as host nation Brazil were humiliated in front of their eager fans, who were already hurt with the news of Neymar missing the rest of the tournament. Within half an hour, Brazil were 5-0 down and on their way out. Germany scored two more before Brazil managed to grab a consolation.

A Closer Look At Manchester United And Chelsea's EIGHT-Year-Old Target Dubbed 'The Next Messi'
