Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[greasedupdeafguy]

Still 4/5 to remain at Barce.

6/5 to join City.

1000/1 to join Hibs which is tempting.

Now slight favourite to join City for what it’s worth.

Not really. Legal (and CAS) precedent already shows (2 cases) that the amount would be very slightly more than what was owed to the player in wages over the remainder of the contract. So it’s somewhere between £50-70m if you include the increase on top of the ten months of his salary that is owed.

Even a “worst case” doubling would still make it viable, plus Barca would be waiting 2-4 years to receive a dime from City. That’s why it won’t come to that. We hold literally all the cards as Messi is determined to move. It’s done bar the shouting.

So best case he costs £100m a season for 2 years assuming he is not immortal. Doesn't make any footballing sense.

Lionel Messi is set to take another step away from Barcelona by not showing for training on Monday, with the Argentina international of the belief that his contract with the club is over. [

Barcelona presidential candidate, Toni Freixa: “I think a move to #ManCity is likely. With Pep, Messi experienced his most brilliant years. It would be logical if they worked together again. City also has the financial means to build a team that can win anything."

Barcelona presidential candidate, Toni Freixa: “As I have heard from several sides, the decision the player [Lionel Messi] has come to is one that has matured over several years and is irrevocable. I don't believe that there is any going back." [via

Yeah, but I was meaning a long term legend, especially multi trophy winner.

I can't think of anything similar off hand, exept rags.

Yeah fair enough.

 

[dadv1]

Is going to be a long week...

 

[Neville Kneville]

Yeah fair enough.

Tbf if Swales could have, he most likely would have ;)

A week is a long time in politics.

I'm getting Messi adverts on Bluemoon now (too much Googling)

When I first saw the new home kit, I thought this is going to go down as one of the worst in our history. Turns out it's going to be one of the most iconic.

Breaking the mould
Breaking Uefa
Breaking la liga
Breaking the cartel

The TV certainly takes me back.
How the fuck did we use to watch a box that size and in black and white!

Haha haha.

Also the metal coat hanger in the back for the Arial.

[LongsightM13]

Has anyone else ever treated a club legend as shabbily as this ?

Edit: apart from Utd, obviously.

Liverpool and Shankly

I thought he was immortal Corky. Tongue in cheek as I don't know what numbers would make sense to us but I imagine others have their fingers on the pulse.
