Le Transfert du siècle: Et Figo changea de camp

If it wasn't tragic, it would be hilarious how Barcelona didn't learn anything from the Figo affair - and repeated the exact same story with Neymar.

As a documentary, this is really well done - shows the facts, using great archival footage, asks questions to all the actors involved, and gets answers from them. Who's lying and who doesn't? You can make up your own mind about that.

Football is a sport like no other, embedded in the history and culture of city's, it brings together and divides people like nothing else of its make. Amazing to see how transfers and speculation took place in the 90s and how one of the greatest betrayals in football history unfolded.

Also great to see Perez, Guardiola and others openly talk about their truth. Figo about his own. Somehow years later the stories still don't match which is absolutely insane.

Must watch for football fans and non football fans. 10/10 for me personally, never seen such a good football documentary and what a story to tell.

At some point in your life, if you are a Football fan, you probably heard about Figo and this epic transfer/moment but here's a chance to go back in time and understand how this transfer changed Modern Football.

This documentary, gives you testimonials from everyone involved with the decision but in the end, does not give you answers. "Why? Who? When?" It kinda creates a void you didn't knew you had and then doesn't fill it.

It does feel like this could easily been done and achieved in 30minutes but for some reason, takes almost two hours.

I was expecting more when I saw how long it was (Even Borat takes less time than this).

If you are not a Football fan, it's still interesting as it explains parts of Spanish history and Football rivalries.

The yays:

• Epic transfer that speaks for itself.

• The way it shows how the press was and is a big key in Football transfers.

• Some old footage that was well placed and edited that makes you go back in time.

• Paulo Futre. Legend and just survived a heart attack!

Not so much:

• Time spent looking at people's faces... Honestly.

• Can't help but feel like this could've been easily done in half or even less the time it took.

• Not showcasing what Figo accomplished in Real vs. The downfall of Barcelona. Just a few lines saying oh this happened and that happened.

If you are a supporter of one of the 2 biggest clubs in your country (for me Feyenoord vs ajax), you feel the betrayal when a player goes to the arch-rival. This documentary gives an interesting look behind the scenes.

One of the most iconic transfer of all time, it's crazy to see the point of view of all people involved. What makes someone to go from Barça to Real the way he moved? The answer is in this documentary after 20 years.
