Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[domalino]

City aren't going to offer for Leo. Lu Martin has spoken. That should end all speculation tbh. If it doesn't then Pep will end it in 35 minutes or so.

You know how on the podcast the other day you said your opinion of Khaldoon and Txiki would plummet if we don't get Kane after making him the only target?


If we don't make an offer to the best player in the world, who would absolutely transform the club's standing worldwide, because Pep is too proud to stop being upset that Messi wouldn't sue his way out of Barcelona last year then my opinion of the lot of them would take a big hit.

And I'm one of the biggest happy clapper, trust the process, Pep fanboys on here.

I understand not getting in a bidding war.

I understand not pinning everything on him saying yes.

I do not understand not extending the offer we already had on the table as of January.

 

[Phil Mitchell Foden]

Why would we sell Rodri?

Because he's toilet.

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

If for nothing else we need to be in for him to make PSG has to offer him more in salary at least not having them a free run at him.

Exactly and not only us but every club with the remotest chance of signing him would be foolish not to try. I think Venky's are on the phone now trying to get him to Blackburn.

We surely all want to live in a world where we find out if he could cut it though right? The dream is Messi trotting out at Stoke in the carabao cup and tearing it up.

Hey mate I totally agree,,love see him here, that's why I've said previous with us or not us for me this is his chance to prove he can do it here, can't be money motivated now surly to god, I just want to see him over here and see how he copes with our style week in week out,, the prem as a whole I mean

 

[Kippax1973]

Apart from all those goals and majestic performances against the Prems best, Including ourselves, you're correct..

A few 1 of games that mucker week in week out I mean

Think I'm in the 5 stages of grief. I think if we dismiss Messi and pay £150m for Kane I'm going really resent him. Sorry I just am

 

[Clevers]

this thread is a great experiment in self persuasion

or delusion

 

[PrezIke]

But if we don't get Kane then it's doable ?

Hard to know, but I suspect our other dealings with Grealish and Kane are absolutely a factor. Without either, then I would say yes.

As Sam Lee indicated what happened last summer is also a factor.

Was also predictable Pochettino and he might have a link + his relationship with Neymar on the pitch.

 

[blue wang]

We are actually choosing Harry fucking Kane over Messi someone at this club needs their head Checked. The marketing potential and money making from this move is ridiculous for City.

PEP AND MESSI together for the final chapter it writes its self fucking hell.

Kanes world class, but Messi is Messi he's the Goat. Still scoring goals for fun and assisting.

110 percent this,. If PSG blow us out the water fair fucks. But if we do pull this off it anounces us as the big dog at the table.

Spanish government will bail out Barcelona so Messi stays ...that or La Liga changes its salary policy
