CAS increased it to 11.6m i think and it took 2 years. CAS said that you cant predict the compensation as it is the impact it will have on the "wronged" party. I suspect the commercial impact of losing Messi will not be small, certainly compared to some bloke i hadnt heard of before.

I think the conclusion basically means using Webster is a huge gamble and will take a long time to be resolved.

But FIFA seemed to come to a reasonable fee a lot less than his clause, even though he had 2 years to go.

The same result, even with Messi's ludicrous release clause, also allowing for it being one year rather than two, plus his age, ought to be perfectly doable, if neccessary.

Edit: if it ended going to 2 years at CAS, we would have made the extra, before we had to pay it.

Hi everyone and sorry for my terrible english.

I´m a Barça fan and a reader of this forum, because i like your club since the signing of Silva (and now i like it much more because Pep).

This is my opinion: you are going to sign Messi 100%. Because Messi wants to live the club, he´s decision is firm, he needs a new challenge, he knows the talent of Pep and is a Kun Aguero´s close friend. And the most important thing, you are the only club wich meets to fundamental conditions: have the chance to win important trophies and have the money to pay him.

My opinion, too: he´s not going to leave for free, he´s not right about his contract issue. And nobody is going to sing him in this conditions and risk for a vey expensive penalty. And there is another issue: the FFP. You have to lose some salaries to can afford his signing.

So, the only way is an offer with cash and players. Minimum two players and maximum 3. What players are interesting for FC Barcelona and no crucial for you? García, Gabriel Jesús and Bernardo. May be Cancelo, but probably not.

Probably, you may think you have much more power in the negotiation. And is 80% true. But this is not a normal transfer. Messi is the biggest legend in the history of the club and the person who sells him will be a real villain for all his live. So is gonna be a tought negotiation, and if Man City doesn´t do the correct offer, Bartomeu will be happy to reject it. And Messi can stay and change his mind because in march we will have elections and a new board.

And what is a proper offer to me? García, Bernardo and Gabriel and a small amount of money (20m?) or García and Gabriel and more money (80-100?). You can think is too much because he´s age and the difficult situation for our board. But remember that it´s not a normal player, he´s the symbol of the club, of the city and our hero. For less than that the fans will burn the Camp Nou and they probably will in any case. So i think you will sign him but it won´t be easy.

And my third opinion: a transfer to City is the best for all, Barça, City and Messi.

Post data: the song has to be "you´re my wonder Goat".
 
When all’s said and done I do feel a tad sorry for Messi, they’ve really fucked him big time here. Even if he wanted to stay I doubt he could
