He may be the goat but I really hate transfer sagas

Why has everyone lost their shit?

Be cool.

If Bartomeu doesn't buckle this transfer simply won't happen. We ain't signing him with a pending court case nor will Messi leave like that.

If this was any other club I'd feel confident the club will do what's right for them in long term and agree to sell him but this is Bartomeu - in a club with elections and so much politics long term doesn't matter. He'll gladly leave the next president with an utter mess to clean up.

only saving grace is that the next president would likely forego the court case once they got voted in

Seems the easiest option to me, job done no courts no fuss.

Problem is the Barcelona president does not want to negotiate at any price . He is obsessed with not being the guy who sold Messi.

Seem like staying for one more year is gaining traction with more journalists. Who knows if they are all going off that first journalists ‘info’ or if they are now receiving similar information.

I don’t think they know anything but someone will be right eventually.

Exactly how I see it as well mate.

The Mitchell Brothers ? I see them more as Shaun Ryder and Bez? As for @Cellarite im suspicious his camping at the aerodrome coincided suspiciously with Boris Johnson going “glamping”.

 

[Neville Kneville]

Ha, just seem Kaveh Shitehole's excitement at Van Beek, compared to his shit up the nostrils attitude to us signing Messi.

Hilarious.

 

[MillsyTheMosher]

I think one thing is now clear... we can't secure him on a free transfer as we were hoping.

The question is, are we willing to pay a significant sum plus his wages to bring him here ?

Ball is in our court IMO.

I trust the club with it. If we walk away, it will be for the right reasons.

We aren't a club that will be held to ransom any more.

Empty vessels make the most noise.
