We have the best manager in the world who knows Messi better than any other.

We have Omar Berrada the guy who made Barcelona rich by cashing in and promoting their brand.

We have Soriano and Khaldoon who have never steered us wrong in 12 years.

And people still think they know better about whether we can afford him/if he is still a marketing draw/if he is good enough.

Exactly.

City must have known Messi's and his Father's transfer figures and terms last Summer, when Messi wanted to leave Barcelona. Those transfer figures and terms won't have changed. If City couldn't afford those transfer figures and terms last Summer, they would have walked away. By all accounts City haven't walked away. It seems the only real competition City face to sign Messi is from PSG. PSG will break their already creaking finances to sign Messi.
 
Messi for 1 year in Manchester City? That would be a disaster...

It would have to be a two season contract, with a third season clause if both parties want it? It wouldn't surprise me if both parties had a get out clause as well.
 
He'll stay. No idea why he'd want to go to PSG and the City thing might have been on at one point in the summer but since then it's gone quiet.

It just seems like he's not fully committed to leaving anymore and I think that's what it would take. If he's sitting on the fence about it then he's almost certainly going to stay where his home is, especially with Barto out.
 
Would he do it on principle though? For a top top athlete, isn't it like admitting you're not as valuable as you once were and therefore declining? Might be reading too much into it.
Perhaps, i dont really know. I’m sure there are creative ways to pay him that don’t involve us losing money
