10 - Lionel Messi - v3

[Morten]

Antonella is fluent in english. Daniella herself confirmed it on twitter long time ago.

What about Messi himself? I always had the impression he understand it to some degree, but i never heard him speak a word english. In the very unlikely event that he would move to London, but i dont think it would be a problem anyway.

We wouldn't be totally screwed if he left. Assuming we buy properly.

Zubisiesta and Bartomeu wtih 250 million. What could go wrong :eusa_think:

Cesc is their most important player by a mile. He has transformed the way they are able to play.

Matic gives Cesc more freedom to play as more of a box to box player but Cesc has been their most important player this season easily.

Just...no. Hazard, Matic, Diego Costa

 

[Morten]

In any event, you cant sell him until the transfer ban is lifted anyway?

barca can sell but cant buy.

Barca cant do anything, chelsea just activate his clause, and then bye bye.

Barca can still sell players but not buy any.

I love Messi and think he is the greatest ever but if this season is the same as last from him in terms of work rate then..... wouldnt be as gutted to lose him as a few years previously.

Purely because I think it is hard to envisage where he could play and is happy to play that would allow the team to beat the best.

Losing a player of Messi's stature would be devastating for Barca. You NEVER want to be the team that let go of a generational player, esp. one that grew up through your academy.

If Messi wants money, just give him the damn money. He makes more for Barca than what Barca pays him.

He is the best paid player in the world already. I doubt any of this is about money.

Reports state he earns $3 million less than Ronaldo.

Reports state he earns $3 million less than Ronaldo.

When he signed his contract in May it was everywhere that he is top paid player in world.

 

[JamDav1982]

Assuming his work rate is poor - for whatever reason - where do you see him playing that allows the team to get back to the top?

 

[messi2140]

He is not the reason that our team regressed, he is the reason that barca is still seen as a possible champions league winner.
