The unknown is whether City will seek to agree terms with Messi without barcelona's agreement.

Could City negotiate with Messi without the consent of barcelona on the basis that we believe he is contractually free of barcelona?

How could FIFA regard that as tapping up or an illegal approach if there's a legal basis to argue he is free at the time - even if it is subsequently determined that he is not!! Another minefield. I would if I were City try and do this with the Barcelona board's agreement even if it means paying a significant but small fee.

Give it a break Marv, your like a broken record

Repost of his (Estiarte's) brother an hour ago. Photo is of Messi and Mama Estiarte.

Text reads "Thanks for making my mom happy. Thank you for making so many people happy. Now it's time to help you be happy !!!"

So.....

That's the biggest sign that he's joining us that I've heard up to now imo.

Manel Estiarte has removed his repost so it doesn't appear anymore on his timeline... he shall regret to put light on it yet

doubt it, not the first time a staff member has leaked something for a bit. Obviously a tactic.

Now deleted.

Maybe some City officials checked the forum?

Isn't Estiarte the one who posted the photo of Pep, Txiki, and the rest of the gang celebrating the CAS ruling? He has form for putting things up that City would probably prefer he didn't.

The Guardiola song works also using 'Lionel Messi'. Just saying.

The same topics are being discussed by every City fan. can we sign him on a free transfer or not?

Maybe it's me but I just have the whole Kaka feeling again with this transfer, would love to see him here, but can't help but think we are being used.
