Was worth it just for his goal in 81 final.
Agreed, fantastic goal and a very very good player.

But at the time £250k for an untried and tested was a massive risk.

Big Mal was obviously aware of his ability and potential through his links with Palace at the time.
 
From what i gather (i am probably dead wrong); we are not even close to him. The ballpark is at Barcelona atm and we are not even geting a "come-and-get-me" plea from Messi.
Why are you such a negative Nelly in virtually all your posts?

@Ric should take your username off you as your anything but a city DREAMER.
 
The best solution for both sides is Messi leaves now.

Barcelona
-won’t win La Liga or the CL with or without Messi, their aging squad is a year older. Main targets seems to be Eric Garcia, Wijnaldum, and Lautaro M. ? Not of the required quality.
-Messi can stay and leave for free next summer which means his yearly wages of about £60m will go down the drain.


Messi
-33 years old, a year is a long time for him at this age, doesn’t make sense to waste it under Koeman and the average squad that won’t win anything.
-moving to City means he has a great chance for the Balon d’or and multiple trophies.

It will get done imo.
 
It will until the next negative twitter comments come out in the next hour or so.
Dumbledore or whatever his name is will post 'Jorge is having a shit' and thats it, Messi has changed his mind and is signing for Liverpool for some posters on here.
 
Fair point, but whilst being one of the best ever players to have played the game do you think he'd have a destabilise effect on the team?

Given his age, he is at the wrong end of his career, is he worth this kind of mone, not withstanding the fact he will probably make a massive contribution to his cost through shirt sales and all the other paraphernalia that will inevitably come with him?

No I really do not see a down side to signing him. Particularly the way we play and the players we have. I dont believe he is an abrasive character who would cause trouble in the dressing room. All positives for me.

The only very slight worry is potentially having to replace him Aguero and Pep all at once, but you would'nt turn down a month in the the Maldives because you were worried about getting piss wet through when you flew back to Manchester would you?
