Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

Messi would walk to M/cr to play for pep.

He was training for the journey tonight.

You're entitled to your opinion as I am to mine.

I tell you what though, I've never seen Ronaldo play in such a lazy, big headed manner as Messi has tonight.

I've never seen Messi destroy English, Spanish, AND Italian football. He's done it in Spain but never anywhere else. Ronaldo has destroyed every league he has ever played in.

I've never seen Messi inspire his national team to be greater than the sum of their parts. I've seen Ronaldo do exactly that.

Ronaldo is the greatest player of the modern era, probably second only to Maradonna all time.
Messi was unplayable a few years ago. For a year or two.
With Xavi and Iniesta doing the hard yards for him.

If City want to be a top tier, major big club, we need to be distancing ourselves from players that think they're doing us a favour being linked with us.

Just seen Mbappe score a hattrick.

Why not let PSG spunk a few hundred million on Messi and we'll take young Mbappe off their hands.?

What an awful argument. Nothing wrong with staying loyal to his team. He has trashed every single opponent he has ever faced. 939 goal contributuons in 760 appearances. Easily the best player of all time.

In the past 1 and 1/2 season he has got 85 G+A. And that’s playing with shite players. He’s still got it

And Messi has had several chances to come to City in the past, flirted with us like a cheap whore, and then turned around and signed a huge new contract. Literally laughing all the way to the bank.

So yep, I agree with you. We'll forget about signing Mbappe and we'll forget about signing Messi.

Full steam ahead for Haaland. And maybe a cheeky 100m bid to juve for Ronaldo.

I wish we could just ban people who keep pretending its a choice between Messi or Haaland in order to have the same argument over and over again.

No one engage.

Ronaldo lol go to bed young en.

Wow barca are awfull and messi not interested heads elsewhere.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Honestly, do those of you who think we won't sign him based off his lack of pressing think that Pep, Txiki etc. aren't perfectly aware of that? Do you think they haven't watched him play?

If we sign him a small minority are going to feel very foolish.

For God's sake, Barca are wank and their goal came from a great Messi pass, which led to a penalty he converted. Even when he doesn't play well he still produces.

Aguero + 100m for mbappe please

Didn't you want Pep out in his first season?

 

[Coatigan]

Could they Really match our financial offer?

This is only feasible for us due to the fact that most of the €500m will be borne by other city group (or other clubs) with only the first 2/3 years specifically going through our books.

Do PSG own a club in America, or have a holding group with a host of clubs where it could be argued that he’s an ambassador for the holding club representing all the clubs not simply PSG?

I don’t doubt for the next 3 years they could match us but surely they couldn’t offer him a 8/10 year deal as we can only do so because of our structure???

They'd find a way, no doubt.

Everything you say is true, but from a club that spent almost 400m on just two players in one window, plus all the others they bbrought in, i'm sure they could find the money and the way to offer it.

Yep. De Bruyne played in our 5-2 defeat to Leicester. I’m guessing he’s shit as well by the logic of some on here.
