Dream move for him, true. Best career choice by far. Weak league, good chance to add a final CL with a monster attack around him.

Had a great 2nd half vs Bolivia but it?s not the same Messi as before, we can all see that. Of course he will loose his acceleration but he makes so many technical mistakes that he never used to do before. And the amount of goalscoring chances/positions he gets in has been under 1 pr game for at least the whole year.

The technical decline is a result of the physical decline imo. He just does everything at a much slower speed. Which makes him predictable and sluggish. Easy to guess and overpower.
Also, unfortunately, he likes things which don't suit him. If he had willingness to play more advance and refine his game as a striker, he'd get more out of his last years. But he likes to play in crowded areas, where you need great movement to stand out.

True. I can't see him lasting there that long. Look at the challenge Thiago had to face today. Messi would face a lot of horrible challenges.

Yea, young Messi would break records left and right in that league. This Messi needs a slower pace. Maybe Serie A or Ligue 1.

Messi is one of the most intelligent Person in Football. There's a reason why he chose City because City has the ball all the time and a De Bruyne who would give slice passes which Messi would convert everytime. He doesn't have to track back because at City
Imagine De Bruyne Passes to Messi , 100 Goals incoming.

City don't look great mate. They just got blown apart by Leicester the other round.

You don't know Messi. He would drop down and steal the ball from DeBruyne.
Ronaldo is smarter in this regard. He understands his flaws. Messi is not as good admitting his flaws or decline in some areas. Messi needs to change his game plan to get the best out of him the next few years.

Imagine thinking that is a problem. If anything we are still passing too much to him in sterile areas.
Right. I know. But! You notice at the 95', the last action, Fati should have giving it to him. I was hoping for one last minute goal. I wanted to have a better evening.

Yea, he'd mostly clash with De Bruyne for the no 10, main creator, role. Granted City would be an interesting option, I don't see washed up 34 years old Messi cutting it in the Premier League based on the speed and intensity in that league.
