I was one of those who got very excited last summer at the thought of signing Messi... and then convinced myself to get excited again in November / December
I don’t think it will happen now. And, not because of that belief, I don’t want him either. We’re playing immense football. Performance-wise, I’d say we’re on par with the Centurions season, or at least very close. There isn’t a team in Europe in this level of form.
I rate Messi and I can see the argument about cherry on the cake, and the piss boiling would be very funny. But I’m getting really excited about City again, and we’ve got a talented crop of young players who I’d rather see succeed.
Sorry Messi, but there’s only one GOAT for me, and his name is Shaun
