I'm going to have to retract my earlier statements. The honest truth is Messi is the greatest player on the planet. Which makes him the best forward on the planet. He's better than Falcao, Cavani, Pato, Ronaldo, Aguero, v.Persie, Rooney, Torres, Tevez, Gomez, Lewandowski or any other forward...

@Cule4Life You made too many points which I agree with for me to respond to just any one lol If we go for Neymar it has to be for the right reasons. We're not ManUre (Park & Kagawa) or Madrid (Beckham, Ronaldo, Kaka, Ronaldo etc etc) who sign players to sell shirts. But I would take any Masia...

Thanks Visca! That is what I was trying to say. Reus can ride a few tackles, keep balance and stay on his feet. Also Reus is 6'0 where Neymar is 5'9. I agree with the points you made as well about the likeliness of Reus flopping over Neymar. I would welcome Neymar as any other coming to play for...

I agree with everyone about Reus. On top of being tried in Europe against top sides Marco Reus also has a physical presence that Neymar won't ever have. Reus will be cheaper and is a team player where Messi will continue to play how he does but with a lot better support. Someone made the...

Wether he'll leave Germany/Dortmund is another thing but I'd take Reus over Neymar. He may not be as good with the stepovers but has the speed, size, strength and eye for goals that would compliment Messi.

I hear you Malappapper. Having Falco isn't going to weaken us. I don't get the logic behind that. Messi moves wide right and he'll score 55 goals a seaon vs 70? Messi is a player who drifts and takes half the defense with him when he does. Right now when he drifts the opposition isn't that...

The most logical thing to do is keep Messi in the false 9 and buy a new world class forward who can play wide replacing Villa. Possibly Aguero or Reus. Both players are young, versatile, can play wide or thru the middle if needed. With Aguero Messi will a player he will know well due to playing...

My only concern with our "false 9" system is (god forbid) Messi pick up an injury what would we do? Villa looks a shadow of his old self (understandable with his injury). After Messi all we have is wingers. Are we going to put Cesc through the middle like Spain? Sure we can but none will be as...

Cavani? Like Falcao he would bring a threat in the air and is a versatile CF who can dribble, pass, create space and most importantly score goals.

I understand both sides of this argument. Why buy a CF when we have Messi? The problem with this strategy is if Messi misses a match whats our alternative? Tito is either being really careful with Villa or Villa's leg just hasn't fully recovered which is understandable. But when Villa has played...

Messi = simply the greatest player ever. He is a Total Footballer Congratulations to him for this huge accomplishment. Visca Barca! :barca scarf:

Is Neymar really neccessary? I don't think an outside player who wasn't built at La Masia will be our next Messi. We have Cuenca, Tello, Deulofeu who will continue to improve and if we really want another versatile wide player, Marco Reus would be a good option. He'll be cheaper and has more...

True :beer2:

Sorry this is one player who I'm glad doesn't play for us anymore. He is a great talent but is a piece of $hit as a person. Very very dirty player with a bad attitude belongs more on Mourinho's Madrid than he ever did with us. I rate him right behind Joey Barton on the jerkoff meter but ahead of...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHXKlU9uXlw This clip could be completely out of context and emotions on the pitch certainly do run high sometimes but at around 40 seconds you can clearly see Messi is pissed at Villa over what looks like "you didn't pass the ball to me". I'm not totally buying...

You guys are making a lot of great points but some are just blaming one thing or another. Whatever problems we are having have become a chain reaction. We placed Messi in the False 9 position and he has been on a goal rampage ever since. This also braught something fresh and unique to our attack...

Same here! It's been amazing to watch the great things Messi can do and all the goals he's scored this year. But in a way it's also hurt our team as you said we've become a bit one dimensional. Our opponents know if they can triple team Messi and shut him down there go most of our goals...

Those definitely were amazing days. We could replicate that if we purchased Falcao. Imagine the damage Villa - Falcao - Messi could do. With that trio upfront the opposition defense would have their hands full leaving Iniesta-Xavi to do what they do best.

We all know Valdes can't defend his near side post and I think Wanyama knew this too lol The goals weren't totally Valdes fault but I can't help to think Forster might have got a hand to them.

I've been to Scotland many times and Scots are some of the most welcoming and friendliest people you'll meet. Glasgow has it's rough areas but those aren't near the stadium so you should be fine. Safe travels to all attending the match! Força Barça!
