He needed Alvarez to supply the legs for him during the world cup. He'll always supply magical moments & special goals, but what about the other 85 minutes?

Because City usually dominate possession, Messi would probably thrive with us, but at what cost? If he finally came here I'd be meh... \0/

If he doesn't, we can move on & do what's best for City, not Messi. In lower grade matches yes, but in high level matches he'd be a passenger with us relying on a magic moment or two.

For me it's not worth it. The moment has sadly passed & that's on Messi.

Well, he would also have Alvarez at City. Everyone has a different role to play and I was never under any illusion that he’d be taking on all 11 players’ roles on the pitch.

he doesnt need a last pay day though

maybe just maybe he would want to come to prove something ....he has won the league whereever he has been (Spain and France) - maybe he wants to give the Prem a go....

Maybe he fancies finishing his career at the top of the game with the manager and sporting director that helped him start

of course the romantic side of him may also fancy a return to barca

WHen you have someone a good as him you dont carry him.......he carries the team just by his presence esp when you have a tactician like pep.....

teams would be absolutely terrified of attacking us and potentially leaving him any space at all to work in....every team would be on the back foot before the game even started....Messi,foden with rodri behind them along with KDB - the techincal levels are beyond comparrison...teams wouldnt be able to get the ball off them

Mark messi out of the game - you leave Haaland/foden/kdb/grealish or someone else a hell of a lot of space

And Haaland is our main striker, so unless we play Alvarez alongside Haaland, we'd suffer carrying Messi as a passenger.

Mate, it's over. If Messi truly wanted City, he'd have been here years ago during the prime of his career.

All Messi did was use our interest to rinse more money out of Barça. Even after leaving Barça, he preferred playing with his mate Neymar in Paris, rather than consider City.

Manchester City Football Club are no one's retirement home, even if that person is Lionel Messi!
