Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[decmancity]

I cannot believe there are people in here convincing themselves this would be a bad move. Signing Messi would put the club into the stratosphere.

If anybody thinks Messi will ever leave Barca I advise they should remember to take their medication or go and get the dose upped if they haven't forgotten.

So who do we drop for him? Which younger prospect do we piss off for him? 4 years too late, also blues you won’t even get to watch him live this year if he does come, fans aren’t coming back any time soon.

Mahrez/Sane/silva may be aguero. We have so many players he can replace.

Should rename this thread The Messi blindspot

Do Messi and Pep get on? I've read a few things over the years stating their relationship may not be the best...

 

[whipper]

FFP still exists, I really don't think we could afford him. Especially when we need improvements elsewhere in the team, which won't be cheap.

 

[mat]

IF this happens we will get crucified by the media. Unless it’s a deal where Messi is being paid a euro a week.

There is no rift between the two I have ever seen credibly chronicled - they both speak highly of one another

 

[TheRemainsOfTheDave]

If he comes, he can go to Girona on loan for a year to build up his form.

Bollocks to that, Pep wants him for the left back position, possibly goalkeeper in the big games.

Such as.....

1. Board (Bartomeu) has no intention to quit (Big shock)
2. Koeman or Pimienta frontrunners to take over
3. Suarez has credible link returning to Ajax
4. Elections would indeed be moved up but earliest would be November

Problem with not having elections now is that you cannot have a mandate for any decision, now much less in winter when a new board would be elected. In turn, it would do little to placate Messi IMHO. Effectively the status quo

It continues to be an embarrassment that Bartomeu refuses to resign
