heyup LT, hope alls well.
Re Messi, flippin eck where do you start. Re figures, am not sure anyone knows exactly what the true cost of Messi would be to City. Read a piece that City would be able to renegotiate sponsor deals as everyone would want Messi under there sponsorship name. Don’t know how much there is in that. Maybe a few brown envelopes from the Middle East might cover it. Am positive that UEFA are watching with great interest. As much as I would want him at City, priority is defence. That said most Ciy fans have been bogged off for years with not taking those chances and putting games to bed. Am not talking Watford ( no disrespect to them), more along the lines of the Lyon game. Could Messi be that clinical finisher.
Read another piece that said could Messi be a modern day Rodney Marsh signing.
Me I will believe it when it happens. Ave picked a good year to pack in with the season ticket ???
Pep will never sort the defence out! Attack is the only form of defence in his eyes. He views fullbacks as wingers or inside midfielders. It's Messi or no title I think. He's exactly what City need too. He can play on the right and create/score, he can drop deep or he can play as the main striker and move around.
FFP is dead now, look at Chelsea. Go and spent £500m on Messi, I really want to see him in England. Lucky enough to see him in person a fair few times and he's the only player that I spent most of the game shaking my head in amazement at. He will make David Silva look like Steve Lomas!
