Lionel Messi

Marca bollocks, just a rehash.

I don't think I'd want us to sign Messi tbh. Not because I wouldn't want to see him play just because it's not like 'the next big thing', it's just like 'City dominate everyone'. I'd prefer us to get Aguero and for him to flourish at City.
 
I'm think it's a link that refers to the following article, from the 11th of August:

old news... pity!
 
a few months ago I would have thought no chance.But every player in the world MUST be turning their head and looking our way now.Ok we are not in Europe,but we have as much chance as any top "5" club of getting into the champions league.Infact for any player who is right at the top of their game and their Nation looks like they will qualifie for the world cup then coming to a top club[which we are] and one that is not in europe at the moment,would be ideal,as there would be less chance of burn out.Also if they won anything with us,then the reaction of our fans would be like no others from the likes of ,Madrid,Barca,Rags etc.This thread may be based on one of those made up news thingies we see from time to time,and in the past I would have felt a prat being taken in.But now they are lost on me..If someone said the rags have spent 300mil on 4 players I would split my sides..Us however,and I would be right to sit up and listen.What I;m trying to say is---another piggin night without sleep,;-)
 
Goin bed now. Just a message for anyone who thinks we have even a .0000000001% of signing Messi.... WE DON'T!!! Messi will play for Barca forever. If he ever moves is will be to an established CL team, not us. Please don't delude yourselves by thinking he will ever sign. Stick to the Robbies, Tevez and the Barry's for now. It's where we are.
 
Got there eventually....
According to reports in Spanish newspaper Marca, Manchester City are once again chasing the signature of Barcelona star Lionel Messi.

The 22-year-old Argentina winger is understood to be in talks with with Barca over a new deal at the Camp Nou, but City have not given up in their chase of the player.

Despite not making a formal offer, Marca have reported that they understand Manchester City officials have approached Messi’s agent to declare their interest and are willing to let the player ‘name his price’ for his services.

Messi previously turned down an approach from City during the January transfer, when the Club offered Barcelona €150 million for the star and the player €12 million per year.

Most would expect the Barca star to turn down City’s second approach, however should the Manchester club secure a top-four finish in the Premier League this season, with the prospect of Champions League football and seemingly unlimited resources, the club’s offers may become too good to turn down.

Is this the same old bollocks second approach???
