What's the hmm for?

Does that mean you know something or like budweiser?

I'm desperate for a bit of "messi to city" news :)

Lol know nothing. The hmm is on one hand it’s celebrating his return to Barca, on the other, it’s hardly heavily Barca branded. That might be a legal thing though. So hmm...

you know what on saturday morning i would 100% agree, but i watched that video messi put out and it defo not over
its clear messi does not want to be at barca, even if he has to you don't get messi the player and watching messi going through the motions would hurt the fans and the club

The main problem is is Bart he is a **** he won’t let Messi go.

I've cracked it lads.




Messi made the video so he could demand Barcelona buy Thiago, stopping him from going to Liverpool before he takes his clause to court and walks on a free.

It's all part of the masterplan.

I’m sitting in the camp of its over and we probably shouldn’t go back next year.
Feels like the time was now and two years would of been perfect. Bringing a player like Messi just for one year at the risk of stopping the team develop is risky to say the least.


However I did hear a theory from a Barca fan on a podcast the other day. This was all about bartemeu making sure he got a fee and stopping Messi leaving on a free. He will sell Messi to clear his debts and balance the books but needs to do it as close to the transfer deadline as possible to stop pressure from the board and fans for him to spend the Messi money on replacements.
He’s hoping he can sell Messi bank the money and clear any debt the board owes, if they have to start spending the money on players he ends up back in debt.

Not saying it’s likely but You have to feel there is more to all this than we know. We’ve ended up in a situation with everyone losing? Not often you see that.

That's a cunning stunt

Really cant see us paying that when we can have him for nothing in a year also jesus must be worth at least £70m to us £50m is the most we would go imo and I'd hope so too

Barca will be obliged to pay him £50 million in wages over the course of the next season and someone said there will be a further £60 million to pay in a lump sum loyalty bonus, should he see out the rest of his contract. If that's true, then Barca's official line must be that their club is willing to fork out an additional £110,000 mil just to retain his reluctant services for a further 9 months. And they're supposed to be cash strapped. What's wrong with this picture? If City pulled that sort of brain dead stunt, no one would be applauding them.
