He should stay at Barca IMO and finish out his career. We look promising...and every trophy he wins with the young guys would mean a lot both to the coming generation and his Barca stature.

I actually think it would be a mistake if he leaves... retire as a one club man.

We still could get the domestic double this season!! That’s massive!

Well i dont like it when every attack must go through him

But it is what it is.

If he goes, we better replace him with haaland.

If he stays, he better get a proper team around him

The problem for Messi is he's still surrounded by too many average players. It's going to take too much money and time to make this team actual Champions League contenders.... and he really doesn't have time.

Players like Dembele, Grizemann and Coutinho are not good enough. Plus, it's going to be hard to sell them. Griezmann is on 800k a week, so he'll probably stay put. Also, I can't see many teams paying that much of a fee for him. We could sell Dembele, but I don't think we'd get more than 40m for him. We're never going to sell Coutinho, especially after he's been injured and hasn't played that well. He'll probably go out on loan. Umtiti will most likely stay because of his wages.

He wants to win the Champions League. He isn't going to do it with a bunch of youngsters and average players. Besides, he's 34 next season, so it's going to be hard for him to keep putting in them consistent top performances.

We may have played better tonight, but our squad needs a complete overhaul. That takes time and a lot of money.... and he really doesn't have that much time.

according to an argentinian reporter apparently reliable he still leaving.

City?

He's my top 3 favorite Barca player ever along with R10 (who got me into Barca) and Xavi. I was for him leaving when he looked to be really slowing down earlier this season but I think he should stay now...

IMO, we can be better than City next season with one or two good signings. City overachieve (atleast in EPL) because of Guardiola.

We're still far off City and with much less spending power
