Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[Coatigan]

He's a blaugrana legend, I love him but not to coach Barca. Moreover, no coaching change can correct the problems at the club - regime change required

I don't disagree on the problems at the club, and i actually feel for Koeman, he is gubbed to begin with.

I do disagree on Koeman, very good manager. He is in my opinion the right man at the right place, but at the wrong time. A few years ago, would have been great for you. Now he is just a former legend chucked in front of the fans as yet another political gesture, to take the shit. He'd have been better off waiting till changes came and building from there.

He's not past it but he's probably too old for us, he'll not give the club the PR legup we're after.

Think of Dave. The world knows him as a City player who will have a trundle at Lazio. You can substitute Barca & City for Messi.

Brilliant player, would I love to see him Inna City shirt for a couple of years dead right I would but do I think I will? Maybe when Kun has a testimonial.

Real Sociedad.

David isn’t off to Lazio.

Maybe not but the point still stands.

Real Sociedad.

As above the theory is still relevant.

I don't think Messi would do that well for us, won't have the legs for a hard premier league campaign. I'm hoping it's just false rumours we're hearing and he stays at Barca for the remainder of his career. Let's look at young players still, they will be the future.

He’s past his best but would still be on a different level to anyone apart from KDB.Lots of us talk about David as our greatest ever player but this season he was on the wane to the point Gundo started ahead of him in lots of big games. Messi still managed 25 goals and 22 assists in 31 league games last season.He’s that fucking great that it was his worst season in years.

 

[City Raider]

If he’s coming Aguero will know. If Aguero knows then @10josealvarez might start leaking bits of info but so far quiet.

 

[purplenose]

Where are these rumours coming from? I really suspect they are just wishful thoughts of some.

Does Koeman offend Messi to the point of him leaving his home of many years?

Just cant see it.

He would still be the best player in the league with his legs gone. But I do agree that we should be looking at younger players. I don’t know the financials of signing messi but the board will be fully aware that he’s 33 and will be entering a slow decline. If we do go after him, I’m pretty confident the club feel that he’s worth the money regardless of his age, we’ve been a well run club for years now and that won’t change because of one player.

to be fair we look at a fair few younger players as well - we are always moving young players around on loan to see if they are good enough to make the step up......Im sure we will get one or two younger players in for the reserves at some point this summer as well
