If i'm honest, the thing that excited me most about Messi wasn't even Messi. It was the prospect of tying Pep down for another 3 years.

I really don't understand how so many people have misread the bit about his family.
He was saying that he made the decision to leave even though it upset his family, they aren't a roadblock.
@tolmie's hairdoo Has your contact gave you any indication as to whether todays announcement was expected or a shock?
And......are you hinting at THIS window still?
that imo is crucial info, was City aware of the video interview's content, and if this will be published today?
I would assume no based on tolmie's sources.
It was really a poker game.
Messi really had here is the word of Bartomeu instead of legal proof in contract he could leave for free without a courtroom fight.
He tried to make bets earlier street (with the fax, with missing training, with getting Jorge over from Rosario) but Bartomeu was calling all the bets, then on the river Bartomeu with having even weaker hands than Messi if it goes to showdown (court), him and Tebas made a huge bluff with the 700 euro still valid and no other way for him to leave, then Jorge and Messi say I know you dont have better hand than me sort of message (statement about contract today), but then with the video interview published Messi camp decided fold the hand and the pot went to Bartomeu.
I really don't understand how so many people have misread the bit about his family.

Yeah there's no way he mentions it at all if they weren't on board - never mind that detail

Family/kids will always be an issue and potential roadblock.

His family WILL have a say. Because they are looking at 2/3 yrs in Manchester and then potentially another move to New York.I really don't understand how so many people have misread the bit about his family.

Now that sounds ideal for most, but when you've already got enough money?????????

It all depends on how Barca react now.
Messi wants out. He repeated his desire to leave on numerous occasions.
Come on Barca do the right thing and respect his wishes.
I can see it all change by Monday after discussions this weekend.
Barca cannot let this go unanswered they must respond.

He needs a tour of Manchester and surrounding areas with the family - Alderly Edge or Prestbury aren’t that different to Spain (on a sunny day)
I can see Bart makes Messi happy and allows him to leave and happily taking money for it and now doesn’t get shamed for letting him go so easilyIt all depends on how Barca react now.

Barca twitter only shared one sentence of the whole interview:
“I will give it my all. My love for Barça will never change.”
Barto probably would not let any other sentence to be put out there lol.
And good luck with Koeman in charge
