Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[Barcon]

Messi is once in a lifetime. Jesus isn’t

We signed Jesus for the long term. We would be foolish to throw that plan out the window.
Not to mention, why would we give them anything?

That was hardly the ‘fastest feet ever’ more shite defending by Varane. It’s ludicrous to state Jesus has the fastest feet of any player he’s ever seen. Ronaldinho, Hazard, Zidane, Maradona, Messi, Rivaldo, both Ronaldos there’s a significant list of players with better feet than Jesus.

Sometimes, just knowing that we have fans like you who are in a hundred metre dash to downplay anything positive by a City player fills me with a warm glow.

Sterling can play as CF.

He can play there yes, but we don't want to see it happening.

Going into the new season with Aguero as our sole striker means we will win fuck all. Wake up.

aguero is injured we play Messi in the middle flanked by Sterling and Mahrez/Torres. That wins us more than fuck all IMO

For how many games ?

You’d rather suggest nonsense about a player just because they play for city?

And anyone else who doesn't suit, from one week to the next ?

This is exactly one of the points I was making, in my reservations about signing Messi; it becomes all about him.

It's not all about him, it's a team & we will regret it, if we base our 60 game season on two old fuckers in the centre of our attack, even if they are Aguero & Messi. One is often injured & the other is due an injury.

It would be a stupid gamble to stick Messi in a squad with 1, old striker in it, who has barely ever played a decent game in a team with Messi.

Due an injury, Christ that’s a stretch isn’t it. I like Jesus and ideally wouldn’t want to lose him but we also can’t rely on him. Whenever he’s had to fill Agueros shoes he’s failed more often that not. Occasions he’s been great, Madrid games the best example but then there’s been the arsenal and Lyon game where he’s not stepped up. I don’t dislike him and ideally I want to keep him. If he was part of the deal I’d imagine a striker wouldn’t be long from coming in as back up

Where are we, my guess from the buzz is 60/40 for Leo Signing?

Bought Sane for the long term, shit happens

I don’t believe for a minute we are “pimping” any of our players out. I believe they may be asking about them.. two completely different things. Too much piss and wind on social media platforms and 24 hour “sports news” channels equals mountains of steaming bull shit. I hope Messi comes and I trust Txiki Pep, Soriano, and Khaldoon Al Mubarak to do whatever is best for Us.
