Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[liamctid]

Next time we play Barca away I'm gonna find that Hagrid and hold him upside down like an ultra with a flag

 

[MessiIsTeslaOfFootball]

I'm disappointed somewhat. I really wanted him to play in this City team, which is a reincarnation of Pep's Barcelona team. Wanted him to dominate PL and tear that disrespectful punk Robertson a new arsehole.

I'm not sure if City would be in this next year because there's a doubt if Pep will remain. I think he has expressed his desire to coach in Italy as well, in that case Messi might move to Italy next season. But there are chances that the new Barca president will sign Neymar next year (his contract expiring in 2022), if that happens Messi will definitely stay back

People that think this was the end of it is kidding themselves. If it was he would be way less aggressive in his comments.

Its up to Barca to not look bad now. Accept fair offers for him

You honestly believe there another u-turn coming, arey you serious. It’s already a circus.

 

[bluemoon32]

Don't worry, we can go back for him when he's 65

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Why would we do that? We absolutely need to be in it for next season to drive the price up for someone else. He's not coming here ever but this can be used to our advantage to damage another club, especially if we'd be a place Messi would legitimately be interested in.

And the NYCFC idea when he's 35/36 is absolutely going to be on the table still.

Drive the price up? He’ll be a free agent.

 

[MCFC1993]

Right use the money for his wages and transfer fee on a world class attacker.

I really wanted him and would still take him but there are plenty of quality players out there who can help us.

 

[Nellies left peg]

What's he gained from staying? Bartomeu is still there and he's got no wage increase.

We'll have to wait and see what transpires. If they have the choice between Messi and bartomeu there's only one winner

 

[SleepingBlueTiger]

This will be the end, Bartomeu will keep his resolve and City can't afford to not go forward with our other transfer plans. There simply won't be room for Messi financially in a few weeks.

I suspect this is why he is so definitive, City have told there is a deadline.

 

[s1ty m]

What a crock of shit it has been. Doubtful he was ever intending to come here. Prick.

Haaland, Auoer and Koulibaly, please.

 

[RayCTID]

What happens when Bartomeu is arrested and his replacement wants to sell Messi. It is still not clear how this will play out. Bartomeu can't survive in post for the next 24 hours.

Small chance of that happening now. That will still take time which we don't really have. It was now or never for us.
