Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

He could turn out to be our Alexis Sanchez.

I wonder if he can play the piano?

A few on here would be playing their organ if he signed

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

He is better.

That doesn't mean you only have one in the side...

All about opinions

And I disagree with yours

Kev is the better player for City in my opinion

But I agree would love both in our team

 

[RayCTID]

Yes. Ronaldo got 23 goals from open play in La Liga 2 years ago, and this year he got 20, in a Juventus side that was so bad they just sacked the manager.

So you agree Messi would probably put up the same numbers in another side.

The move still hasn't not worked out as what Juventus had planned. And he is on high wages which makes him hard to shift. I just agree to disagree with your opinion. Name calling from both sides gets us nowhere

It hasn't guaranteed them a CL trophy. I doubt anyone at Juventus was stupid enough to think it would.

Reading all the replies about last night you'd have thought it was Bayern vs Messi, Barcelona did have another 10 players on the pitch.

Because he couldn't singlehandedly beat a quality Bayern side he's shit, he had no impact, he's finished, ffs some people seriously tut tut.

The quality he has around him is downright fucking average from what is usually around him.

Ask yourselves how many of last nights Barcelona side would get into ours? Honestly other than Messi I'd say Alba and that's it, that shows how far Barcelona have fallen not Messi.

It hasn't improved them that much either. They are normally careful with their signings

 

[domalino]

It's covered for the fact the rest of the side has gotten significantly worse and the manager was shit.

Without Ronaldo, they'd have lost Serie A this season, no doubt about it.

 

[sir baconface]

No. That's where you've reached complete delusion.

Messi just outpeformed every single player in Europe over the season and you think he's jaded because he Barcelona lost a game.

Fucking Jaded? More assists in the league than Kevin De Bruyne has ever managed. 1 goal less than Aguero's best ever season. At the same time.

Fucking Jaded!

But look at his cost, his age and the hammering his body has taken. That‘s where potential comparisons with Alexis Sanchez come in. Luck would be a factor. You talk as if he’s risk free whereas he’s actually an expensive gamble.

Watching last night I thought thank fuck we didn’t sign De Jong

Wouldn’t even take Alba tbh

Messi would be the only one

 

[Marvin]

I doubt Messi can reproduce the form of a 30 year old Messi at an age of 34. We've just seen the future in players like Alphonso Davies and this is what should excite City fans. Finding and developing players like that not chasing after players who are entering the twilight of their career.

 

[RayCTID]

Ridiculously expensive for the privilege.

I only say Alba because we need a LB and ye I've not been at all impressed with De Jong.

Something we can ill afford at this stage.

 

[malg]

As I said I woul love Messi

But MancityX states he is better than Kev not Silva or doing a job up front

My response is based on that comment

Am I reading that right, did someone on here say Messi wasn't better than Silva?

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

I only say Alba because we need a LB and ye I've not been at all impressed with De Jong.

Think Cancelo as sorted our issue at LB

He has certainly looked good there last couple of games

Was surprised how shit Barca looked last night

One of my boys likes Barca as his Spanish team the other one prefers Atletico Madrid and both were amazed how bad both looked in the quarters

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Someone stated he would be taking Silva spot in the squad/team and not replacing Kev

 

[denislawsbackheel]

Not a Pep player.
Forget it.

 

[RayCTID]

Not a Pep player.
Forget it.

He is but not what we are looking for at this time

Cancelo is more like sticking plaster in regards to LB. We could with one. I don't really trust him against Bayern (if we get there)

Sarri's Juve hitched their cart to an ageing superstar. Two years on they were KO'd y Lyon and the manager fired.
