Pep has always said the same
Hi guys,
I apologize for my interference;
just want to give you my point of view as a fan of Barcelona and above all as a fan of Messisince his prime.
Surely we are talking about one of the best player I have ever seen (along with Maradona).
It must be said, however, that he's turning 34, and his 34 years are not equivalent to the 34 years of players like Ronaldo or Ibra, for example, who are monsters of genetics.
Today Messi remains the most technically gifted player in the world, but also a player who cannot defend and run a lot during matches. Perhaps English football is too "physical" for its athletic abilities.
If your team defends with 11 players, with Messi you would defend with 10.
I don't think he is easy to manage, I think it is foreseen by a clause of his contract at Barca that he can play whenever he wants. And on a tactical level, he is used to play wherever he wants on the pitch and it could be a problem.
Furthermore, a decline in the player is evident, testified by the fact that in 2020 he made few open play goals compared to his standards.
I’m still convinced that Messi is still able to deliver moments of "magic", but having him in the team could be a luxury rather than an advantage.
It’s gonna be a big and risky bet.
I hope I have given you some food for thought.
Cheers

Knowing City they will run out of Ss!I have never had a city players name on the back of my shirt. Sign Messi & I’m getting it ASAP then I’m framing it.
This signing if it happens will generate enough cash to pay for the messi deal.
It’s a no brainier

Would sooner they ran out of the ss`s than the fucking chips.Knowing City they will run out of Ss!
Was so so obvious
Do you remember when a player, I think it was KDB, was in the stands for one of our games, and it'd been reported he'd done the medical, the interview, the contracts were being drawn up etc?
After the game Pellegrini was asked about KDB and he just said "I don't talk about transfer rumours" with the biggest grin on his face.
That's what Pep will be doing when Messi gets here. He'll sign a pre-contract, his wife will have been seen buying a house in Altrincham next to Aguero's, the kids will be signed up to a local school, and Pep will just be saying "Messi is a Barcelona player, I hope he retires there" every week until it's official.

I’ll take anything you want on it he’s in a blue shirt, at the latest, next season!Messi isn't leaving Barca while he still has so much to offer and Pep according to his all his comments on the subject has always acknowledged this..
