Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[The1nvisibleMan]

Please do not also underestimate our owners just doing this to rub the noses of others in it.

Powerful message and even if short term it’s a financial burden longer term it will pay off.

Yeah and in all honesty I couldn’t care less if Messi didnt score or do anything of note for us. If he just strolled onto the pitch in our kit it’d be enough for me

I'm not sure there is any connection between Pep signing and Messi..

Wow I’ve missed this thread. We’re back and we’re ready for it all over again

All you kids on here who get your football knowledge from 4 minute you tube videos or FIFA.

Put your peckers away. Messi is the past.

The future of City is Jesus and Torres. Both have the potential to be world beaters.

We know - and they'll get even better learning from Leo

Firmly believed he will sign a pre-contract agreement with us in January and today’s pep news only strengthens that view, it’s just perfectly aligned. The only question is when we announce it. We won’t want to rock the boat and have any distraction whilst the season continues but we will want to capitalise on the Messi mania pulling power both in terms of signings and marketing. Messi isn’t going to want 5 months of being attacked in the media and criticised constantly either if he announces his departure early. I suspect the deal will be done and kept quiet for as long as possible.

I’m just imagining Foden getting getting some one to one work with him.

Silva and Messi helping him and he still won’t be as good as Hendo...

Announce it on a bad news day.

Or he might want out ASAP, so making it public on day 1 might force Barca to sell in Jan

 

[Nightmare Walking]

Are there any markets open to put a little wager him signing in Jan?

Thank god it's not garlic bread!

Thank god it's not garlic bread!

I've tasted it.

This all ties together nicely. Two year deal for Pep, two years for Messi and Aguero. All 3 go over to NYCFC. Pep loves New York and would be a nice breather for him and another difficult and interesting challenge to take on. NYCFC get two superstars to push the brand. CFG makes billions.

It’s looking increasingly likely right? :)

 

[Cityinmud]

Cuatro is unreliable most of the time but Messi is definitely more outside than inside Barca right now.
