Lionel Messi - v7

DonAK

All this talk about Koeman getting rid of the amigos as if it isn't already reported that Pique, Busquets and Roberto will all stay. Coutinho will return and play a role unless he tries to force his way out too, rumors about Lautaro and players not good enough for Barca like Memphis.

Now you have Vidal hinting at staying too.

Its not purely about the amigos imo. Messi was probably thinking of leaving next year anyways but decided to give it 1 last shot in another top team before returning home to Argentina - current Barca aren't a top team even with him. the Suarez contract and Koeman meeting probably forced him into making the decision early

if this was under a different board, it wouldn't be that much of a disaster but the talk of court battles and Barto incharge of a rebuild? makes me wanna avoid football for a year

Doubt he was going to leave before 2022.

He was going to bow out of both Barca and Argentina that year after the world cup.

Oh btw, how can we forget the fact that the board paid a company to shittalk our own players including Messi and his family on social media.

Alba was right about one thing. A part of our fanbase is spoiled and cannot think clear.

I have no issue with Messi leaving, but the blatant disrespect is shocking to see.


Anyway I told y'all. Pique, Sergi Roberto, Alba will all stay while Messi will leave.

But sure. cLuB dE AmIGoS.

Club has succeeded to sell this myth for 2 years now.
Deflect the blame to the players, deflect again and again.

Sad day, but could turn into a blessing in disguise if this leads to Barto resigning and the squad being cleared.

All the best to The GOAT, he deserves better after having 3 years of his prime leading to only embarrasing memories.

Well, you could say that(last season was an absolute shit-show, especially considering what we did in the years before that).

You could go trophyless next 5 seasons and RM is still the biggest club in football.

2nd spot is Barca or Bayern.

I think people are putting 2+2 together and getting 5 with the Suarez thing. He probably decided to leave at halftime in the Bayern game. Didn't the guy who broke the neymar to psg report Messi wants to leave a day after the game. I think his name is Marcelo bechler

Its not just about Amigo's though.
Messi been pissed off since Neymar leaving, Roma, Liverpool a d lack of a sporting project.
Its been a long time coming due to failure of the board.
This isnt some impulse decision but rather the straw that broke the camels back.
