A happy looking Leo, content to see out his contract is a totally different video to a dejected looking man, obviously forced into a decision. They will be both be received differently and potentially lead to different outcomes.
 
Given Messi Senior’s statement and the fact he hasn’t been to training all week, I’d say Messi staying at Barca is the least likely of all possible scenarios. All the crap being spouted about him staying just indicates the desperate position Barca and La Liga find themselves in. Cool heads are needed and all will be well - Messi is City bound:)
 
Just because Messi’s legal team looked at it doesn’t mean they are right. That’s why people go to court.
The lawyers that drafted the contract told Messi he could leave. You don't get more "horse's mouth" than that. But anyway, this is a circus now. City won't pay a fee and nobody seems willing to call Barca's bluff. Pity. But that looks like an impasse.
 


still think it's bullshit? oddly specific bullshit.

best we can hope for is that this is part of the plan, and he's making it clear he wants to leave but can't. but it seems likely that he has, indeed, bottled it.
 
This is like when Dani Alves was in Paris and people on here calling those who accepted it was over flappers. Seems highly likely he’s Imminently going to say he’s staying and the statement today was a PR stunt. He clearly wanted to leave but looks inevitable he stays.
And the same with Sanchez. Some posters will just not be reasoned with. Anyone who can follow news can see he is staying at this point.
 
Oh well.

Not really much else Messi can realistically do. He’s refused to train, handed in his notice pretty much and even released a further statement stating why he feels he’s free to leave. The league and club are both refusing to budge and the only option now would be to go nuclear.

Yup. The only winner here is Barto's reputation.
He will cost his club £50m in wages for a player who will go on a free in nine month's time. I doubt his reputation will get much of a boost from that. No wonder the club is a shitshow.

I have no idea if it is bullshit or not but the way Twitter works once one person reports something everyone else jumps on as if they have confirmed it themselves. A pile of Twitter posts is not much different from one in terms of reliability because nobody can confirm details that quickly so they just parrot and amplify each other

He’s due a £60m loyalty bonus at the end of next year as well.
