Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[gomer27]

What was the score the last time he played at anfield? And how many did Messi score?

Totally missing my point....

I reckon Pep could make it work, don't you? Seemed to go well the first time.

I'm 50/50 on the transfer myself, @tolmie's hairdoo has said the club had sponsors lined up to cover the whole deal and make it profitable financially but I would quite like to win it without him at least before he came in, and it would fuck with a lot of our players - Aguero's probably benched, KDB sees a lot less of the ball etc.

But it's ridiculous that people think he's not good enough when he's just come off a season that represents the best season of Aguero's goalsoring and KDB's assisting combined.

That was 11 years ago though. When Messi was approaching this prime. Not now that he is on the slow but sure decline.

That's only half the part. Barcelona whole system is to pass the ball to Messi.

Even if u bring him , then u need to change ur entire System for him because he doesn't press. U need to play like 10 Men working for Messi

No you don't.

Also back then Messi was pressing like a madmen

He's just moving into a different part of his career. Goals are going down, assists and chances created are skyrocketing (to literally record breaking levels).

Not really. You think we will hammer Liverpool at anfield with Messi in the team and Leo scoring a hat trick, its a nice fantasy but not one I agree with.

Still not performing against Barcelona's rivals.

A swap for Eric Garcia might be a " Fair deal "

Not in his current state.

Would be mad to pass up the opportunity if it did become available - I don't think it will.

Its a bit of an oddity in that if he did leave there aren't many big European teams I see him going to, somehow City do feel like the correct "fit" with the style and people at the club who know him well. Outside of that obviously Argentina, but too early for that.

I expect he'll see out his career at Barca sadly - not least that its a shame they look like they'll need a year or 2 to rebuild after horrible recruitment in all areas.
