Call me spoiled, but if Jesus or Bernardo get sent off to Barcelona and sour this transfer I'm going to be so pissed off even if it's only until Messi plays his first game in a month's time.

I don't want it to be bittersweet, or involve a compromise, I just want Messi added to the existing squad without compromising the players who're part of our long-term future.

Mahrez, Garcia, even Gundogan or Cancelo...fine. Not ideal but fine.

But not Bernardo...not our only striker under 32 years old.

I'd hope the men in charge wouldn't be so blinded by the attraction of Messi that they would give either of them two away, I'd probably even side of not wanting him if we had to do that.

TyC, the people who broke the story yesterday are saying the City announcement is imminent.

The English club appears as the main alternative for the Flea, according to information in England and Catalonia. The announcement could be imminent.

Remember when Neymar was heavily linked to PSG where he really wanted to go. The signing got quickly done if I remember, this might be no different.

I can't believe I am writing this, but I think we have got him.

There might even be a player/financial gesture on our part but if Messi sticks to his guns...

He's sticking to his guns, it's been everywhere on social media from that Messi isn't changing his mind, he's out of Barcelona, so it seems it's a matter of time before we have him.

I'm not doing Sookie, much as I'd like to on a variety of fronts!!

I'm especially conscious of misleading the board or being made accountable for Messi's own decision-making process (he's retired from the national twice)

As I say, this all came to me originally via a decent contact in Abu Dhabi about a week or so ago and I know some CFG people have been getting very giddy ever since.

City just aren't the aggressor in this, hence why I had a YouTube meltdown on Saturday night, it was the first time somebody had said Messi's people had made the approach, rather than us, would be handing in a formal transfer request.

They have been bob on so far and seemingly City can have this all boxed-off.

My only concern remains the story becoming bigger than Messi and him being talked down like Kaka was at Milan.

Do you think there's any truth to the reports from Spain about Gabriel and Garcia plus cash, or is it just Barca damage control?

Ignore the needy fuckers on this forum lol.

This is getting done imo, way too much noise about it from every single corner and its happening at warp speed as well.

He wants out, Barca want rid to rebuild and we are waiting to do it.
