Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

If Pep had to self-isolate for two weeks when he got back from Barcelona...

He wouldn't be in Barcelona. It really is that simple. He starts work at the Etihad in a couple of days.

Who says he's in Barcelona?

Why the village idiot didn't get the chop.....

Nah , not having that one bit.

This deal will eclipse all other transfers by a country mile In terms of business.
The cash generated around the greatest player in the history of this wonderful game is worthy of our huge investment , should it be realised.

At the time of the transfers Neymar and Mbappe were better players. Messi is the best player ever but not now. He is regarded with awe but those who argued that his decline was imminent were right. We have seen that decline, however he's still a great player and the players transfer request makes a deal feasible.

The deal is also attractive for the economic and feel good factor associated with it. It would be a mission for every City player and fan for City to win trophies for Messi. It would entirely change the perception of our club across the world. The media, Klopp etc emphasise the cost but they forget that it works for barcelona in terms of revenue generation, and they don't have international clubs like the City Football Group.

I'm gunna dust of the old ouija board later and try and get in touch with Oldham blue and try to see exactly where we're up to.

With Gina's permission of course.

You don't half chat a whole load of shit Marv.

Lionel Messi is still the best player in the world by a considerable distance, and everyone who watches him regularly knows it.

Spewing nonsense about how "we have seen his decline" as he comes off a season where he broke the La Liga assist record and scored 26 league goals - becoming only the second person ever to get 20 goals and 20 assists in one season in the top 4 leagues is just fucking embarrassing.

Thread. Not much new really.

It's very interesting that he says Messi has wanted to leave since March, when he broke off contract renewal talks, and that his camp have told Bartomeu he wants to leave several times in the lead up to the burofax.

I’d imagine a quick ‘you sure you want to do this’ followed by an even quicker ‘si’ and then they’ll be moving condiments about discussing formations!

Can see it now, different tapas dishes for our players. Unfortunately Pep insisting on the stodgy patatas bravas (Gundogan) in midfield

He needs to lose that fucking beard if he comes here. Looks like a tramp, or one of those yogurt knitting fuckwombles who are invading Levenshulme right now.
