It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

I think it's going to happen. I think FCB are going to have to come to the table and make the best of it, however I don't like to celebrate until the ball is in the back of the net.

Don’t forget VAR.

Any latest betting odds on this?..

Skybet

evens he stays

evens he joins us
next closest is 14/1

stuck 50 on him staying at Barca, soften the blow if he doesn’t join

Not turning up for training would be a breach of contract

But refusing to take a Covid test is probably not in his contract. If the implications of this are that under Spanish law / Spanish FA rules, he can't train.... just maybe Messi and / or his legal people are being very clever

Wont be a breach if his lawyers are saying he’s terminated the contract. Equally, he could chuck in a self cert... Saying work related stress.

And even then we need to see the VAR lines to be certain.

Would have been odds on us but for your bet!

Anyone who has information about players departing? It’s a bit worrying Stones, Otamendi, Zinchenko and Angelino are still around.

Our Very Clear problem areas are leftback and centreback.

Can you honestly see Barcelona forcing him to stay?

I could. That Bartomeu guy seem to have genuine problems.

Almost Messi like today on here you are lol

I don't know, "he's past it". This post though was uncanny...

I think Messi would be better off not showing for training/tests so that the Barca board realise the consequences of making Messi a hostage.

Agree if he does medical tests and training he's implicitly signalling that he's under contract.

Yep. Don’t attend either then release the video.
