Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

Shades of Alexis Sanchez about this saga. Player towards end of career is forced to stay at club he doesnt want to be at. Performances dip as a result. Club lose all value and have an unhappy player.

Next step: Player tries to force a move in January.

End result: Surely not!? Please no

There is nothing to say that those won't be dealt with either? It has been said that Messi is a completely separate consideration to the usual squad planning and rightly so.

Well IF that is the case, we don't want him anywhere near our club.

We are already in a difficult position with Pep, who may stay IF Messi comes, again crazy and unacceptable if true.

We are MCFC and this club is bigger than anyone, including Messi.

Why are we in a difficult position?

Messi only joins if Pep is committed, so that isn't even a consideration.

That may be the case but Khaldoon, Ferran, Pep, Messi and Sheikh Mansour himself certainly won't be saying no to Messi if he picks up the phone Jan 1st.

We won't be chasing him. If he wants to join he is welcome. Either way it's a win win for us. Whether he joins or not. We aren't losing anything

See Fati is out for 4 months.....maybe Barca are less likely to want Messi to leave in January ?

The future is sterling, Foden, Jesus, Torres, Doyle - but I would give anything to have Messi playing with them and coaching them with KDB - would be a sight to behold in a few years time

Fati’s injury is immaterial to the club’s position on Messi

Got to hand it to Bartomeu, rather than cut Messi in the summer and probably save himself and also the Club he kept him and there is a good chance Barca could be forced into bankruptcy today if players dont accept new deals.
