Messi pays for himself (esp on a free transfer which is what it would be) so that argument makes no sense

Irrelevant of where the money comes from,it was part reasoning for the "not to bother" scenario.

I wasn't making it an argument,you are now,so I'm saying next year is no use,many will agree,many won't,all about opinion,mine differs to yours,fine,fucking get on with it

woah there - needless resposnce regardless of whether you are correct or not

You said it was a waste of time and money - my point is that it isnt a waste of money as he would probably be a free transfer and with his high wages that would be covered by the money he brings into the club (extra sponsorship deals etc) - he is a marketing persons dreams!

Messi isnt moving fr a last pay day - he wants to still be competative.

The positives far outweigh the negatives even waiting a year
 
Still doesnt explain why his agent would rack up the air miles - I get that he is acting as an intermediatry
He probably hasn't just bollocks imo although it does sound like kids in a sweet shop fighting all this Koulabily shite

Either pay or fucking get off the pot how long does it take

Make your best offer or fuck off
 
Nothing to suggest we are taking a chance,we've already improved the squad and will improve more.
I didn't mention anything about suggestion. Plenty of blues wrote them off after they ran us close the season before and won the CL. Then won the PL last season with no significant reinforcements. I hope they do fall away but no one knows.
 
Messi's dad still talking to us over the weekend. Make of this whatever you prefer!
Encouraging! I hope it's about coming before this window closes as opposed to some preliminary agreement to sign him for the 22/23 season onwards. I don't Know if you can clarify that or not but anyway, anything is better than nothing. We can still dine out on it either way.

I think we can still get him now if we can agree a fee and maybe send Garcia in the other direction. Cheers Tolmie.
 
Having defended the club for not buying Maguire, I have to agree with your last point. We now seem to be looking at a choice between Koulibaly or Koulibaly if we buy an experienced CB. It bothers me how many suggest he may be past his peak, although that might well be bollox. The only other contenders appear to be relatively raw.

Our record with young central defenders is not good. Those we buy turn to shit. Those we move on seem to blossom elsewhere. You‘d think out of all the decent teams in the world there’d be some strong established candidates in their mid-twenties.
Central defenders tend to have a longer sell by date than some outfield players. If they stay fit, they can go to 35 before they start to burn out.
 
Some call him the new Aguero. Others emphatically deny that. Like so many players, he seems to divide opinion.

Either they got very lucky with injuries these last two seasons or they factor in how injury prone a player has been prior to signing. Their bench is not a strength but they get away with it because their first team players all seem to play for most of the season without lengthy injury interruptions.

They also throw all of the cup competitions early on so they don't have to rely on the bench as much.
