10 - Lionel Messi - v3

[FCBarca]

Messi today: "Mr Faus is someone who knows nothing about FC Barcelona and wants to manage this club like a company. But Barca is not a company, is the best club in the world and should have the best managers in the world. [..]And I will remember to Mr. Faus that I didn't ask to renew my contract."

The little dictator

Brilliant, yet another fiasco to add to the Rosell list

I like how they've upset Cruyff, Pep and Messi in consecutive years. A Treble Rosell style.

What legend of the club hasn't been binned by this board?...I mean what will it take for socios to get a clue?

So Laporta is throwing some fuel to the fire

Qui estima el futbol, qui estima el Barça, estima a Messi. Ha estat, és i serà el millor dels millors.

He who loves football, loves Leo Messi and Barcelona. He is the best of the best.

That's brilliant! Coming from Messi this will weigh more than any criticism from any other player or person, inside or outside of Barca.

Isn't it "he who loves football, he who loves Barcelona, loves Messi"? That wording puts a little more pressure on Faus.

Yeah, I think so too, I just copied it from some Twitter account.

Talking to press at Club World Cup yesterday, Fifa president Blatter refused to explain why the Ballon d'Or vote was extended this year [as]

 

[TornAndFrayed]

To be fair he commented on that several times.

Wow, this is now becoming an open rift, either way it cannot be good for Messi or the club. What Rosell said yesterday was a bit alarming to me. Am I over-thinking too much that there is a possibility that a fed-up Messi might go elsewhere?

Can someone explain what exactly Messi meant? Is there a contract renewal or not at this point? Is it about more money or extending the contract further (making it longer)?

Blatter? What did he say?

 

[Galning]

Still there's people thinking that there's nothing wrong with the board and all of the players, staff, etc... leaving in recent years is just a coincidence
