Is anyone else erect that according to all the Barca tier 1 sources - Messi has sought City our? Times have changed.

"The greatest football team in all the world ..."

They still have Neymar on their books

Neymar went to PSG to be the main man. He won’t be happy

I’ll bare my arse on the home page of this site if Messi signs for United.

I'd hate to think what you'd do if he signed for us

He's probably having his second nervous breakdown since Sunday night.

There's only one club who will pay him 500k plus a week and it's not City. Scum are desperate for transfers, watch them pull this one off.

Ask @kaz7 to do it instead...? :)

If this is true, he's leaving, then we're in uncharted territory folks.

Anyone saying things like "we would never operate this or that way", this is the best player of his generation we're on about, rule books are by the way side.

Sometimes you have to recognise your window of opportunity. Planning 3/5 years into the future when we've had Silva, Yaya, Sergio, Zabs, Kompany etc in their prime hasn't won us the one the club want. Sometimes you have to take that chance on the 1/2 year, once in a lifetime, player.

Don’t disagree but remember Van Persie to United.
Got them the league but it was the start of the rot at the Rags. They/Baconface chose one more title over a rebuild.

Just a different perspective.
Overall I’m warming to the prospect of what this kind of transfer would do to the football world.

Yes and also not many teams would be interested (or can really afford him) in signing him as well (despite Neymar wanting leave).

This is right out of the blue but thanks for starting a thread on it as it could have completely gone unnoticed had you not bothered.

Wow!

if he has a clause asis suggested then what Barça do doesn’t really come in to it, he’s free to go. What City May do is compensate Barça out of respect and to help them save face but in reality Messi holds the cards here.

A figure halfway between zero and what Barcelona is asking is more likely the price
