Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[5 Hit Gibbon]

Ah well, we can always resurrect this thread in 2 years, eh!

Yes! Do you think we have a chance to get him then?

He's already said Messi wasn't in our thoughts and we'd just signed our new #10.

And Rightly so. If we were in for him he'd have come.

While i dont care that he went to PSG it just makes me shudder to think how inept we will look if kane falls through.

So Messi's on £1m a week pre-tax, Mbappe and Neymar are on less than half of that I assume...

Yeah, I can't see any problems on the horizon there.

They have given Donnarumma an obscene deal as well. Plus Ramos and Wijnaldum won’t exactly be on peanuts…

Yeah their wage bill is going to be astronomical, not that it matters anymore (if FFP does indeed disappear) but not sure it's sensible or sustainable.

They definitely benefit from Ligue 1 being weaker (in power) than the Premier League, they can do whatever they want as they're the only team in the league that makes them huge amount of money.

We would have had every 1st team player knocking on the door for a pay rise if we'd signed him, just not sustainable.

What a f***ing circus.

Not even dignitaries get that many police following them. Stick with it till the end.

 

[Ajm1985]

Fair fucks to PSG - that's the signing of a lifetime.

I'll not watch that farmers league, majority will be the same

Nor will I because I support Man City. But those around the world who support Messi might say differently

That's the spirit.
