It isn't football manager we'd need to get rid of players and we ain't just going to give them away.
When it came to Guardiola and again when it comes to Messi, this is like Football Manager. They're the two exceptions to the usual sanity of City.

I think if he's in a remotely realistic price range then we'd sign him first and make the numbers happen second.
 
I disagree the only dream for the marketing man is NYCFC, Messi would be a cash making machine for them, for MCFC , I am not having it.

Old generation get Messi, do the kids now? I don't think so.

The kids are the ones with the cash, they are the one's this club and marketing people want and hence one of the reasons for signing Grealish.

I would imagine a lot of young ladies have become new City fans following his signing.
It depends what you mean by “marketing”.

Grealish has 3.4m followers on Instagram.

Messi has 242m followers on Instagram.

City’s social media following would likely explode overnight if we signed Messi.

The coverage of the transfer itself would be the number 1 topic on social media worldwide. It would be covered by news organisations around the world.

Sponsorships would go through the roof. Ticket sales and corporate sales would go through the roof.

Grealish is marketable because he’s a good looking lad and seems down to earth.

But Messi is the best player in the history of the sport. And he’s a marketing phenomenon.

There really is no comparison with the immediate marketing impact each would have.

I hope it happens I really do but imo it's 100% not going to happen he'll either renew somehow at Barcelona or join the farmers league.
 
Regardless of Messi we should still be going all out for Kane. He’s kept his side of the deal by staying away from Spurs, I’d feel very uncomfortable if we fucked him over now and I think it would damage our reputation amongst other players and agents. I believe we operate better than that. Plus we need Kane and he’s younger than Messi.

Thats not to say if we can get both then we shouldn’t try.
