Y’know what. When you put it like that. I agree. Let’s see what happens. But let’s also hope that we don’t drop the Kane ball and not get Leo again!

That’s the spirit Billy!

I'm going to assume we won't go for him but it would seem mad not to have a word or take his call if, for instance, his favoured destination would be City. And, trying to be objective, if Messi was making the sensible footballing and commercial decision, CFG, not just City, surely is his best bet if City are prepared to take it.

Come on mate, there's no way we're not making the phone call. I know that Pep's camp and others will be saying no, I get that. But there's no way we leave a player who generated billions of Euros in his time at Barca and is the most popular player in world football ever who we have been chasing for a decade and decide we're not talking to him. That's madness. There's no way we're run that badly because he hurt our feelings.

Not saying we'll get him, but cannot believe we're not in for him. Heavily belief that City and others will brief we're not. But you know as well as I do that Messi is a once in a lifetime player and it would catapult the CFG's commercial interests into the stratosphere, especially with a New York backend. Soriano and Berrada have probably been walking round with a permanent hard on since they found out.

Spot on! Captures my thinking perfectly.

It's crazy how many people are falling over themselves just to get this statement signing. No qualms of selling players who've been an important part of our success the last few years and leaving an important incoming transfer hung out to dry because Messi has another one of his telenovela dramatic moments.

Because we support Manchester City FC and not Harry Kane's Feelings FC and want what's best for City.

What the fuck are you on about?

This thread is like you've decided just to post as much bullshot as possible to see how much you can get past.

And the other threads.
Glad I'm not the only one who thinks the same.
Blah blah fuckin blah all day long.

Think we’ll definitely be in for him, still reckon it’ll be PSG he’ll end up at though.

As others have said let’s hope it doesn’t mean we take our eye off the ball with Kane and end up with neither.

Plenty of reports this summer saying we’d been doing the numbers to see if we could make it work, so from the financial side of it we should already know if it’s possible + what we can offer him.

El chiringuito looks sensational

Thanks for the reply mate. Will have to keep an eye out for him.

The interview seems a little out of sync with our general approach. from what I have heard he is important/impressive guy. Hopefully the club can keep hold of him long term.

We spend years kissing his arse and tonguing his ring piece and when it finally looks like he's available ..........we're skint.
Typical City haha

I read this aloud in my best Sir Laurence Olivier voice. :)

If the greatest footballer of all time, who despite his age is still the best player in the game, wants to come to your club and you can afford to take him, you should make it priority number 1.
