Thanks for the memories and good luck.

Leo deserves to compete for major trophies in his final years and it's time for us to finally tear the band-aid off.

President of FC Barcelona
Tried to leave last summer and was shit on for it (albeit part of it was deserved since he tried to leave for free but then again....Barto promised him that).

The news of Messi planning to leave Barca broke February last year by multiple Spanish radio stations. No one took it seriously back then, but in hindsight... Probably leaked by someone in the board. Barto could have come to an agreement and sold him I think, but kept ghosting Messi until he was just pissed enough to go through with the burofax.

Bartomeu was never going to let Messi leave, for free or for 200m.

He was never going to allow himself to be remembered as the Barcelona President who pushed Messi out of the door.

There isnt a single player in the world apart from Messi that could score 38 goals in a season with these teammates. Great season from his considering the absolute state if this carcrash.

The last situation when he decided to finish on his own sums it up... he set up almost everyone today and all of them messed it up... so why bother passing at the end...

When was the last time we saw an attack without Messi being involved... maybe years ago

It was the Villareal game, 3 weeks ago.

I have no criticism on Messi today. He performed well today, lost a few possessions himself as usual, but teammates were extremely bad at passing and finishing. The amount of through passes he made to Jordi Alba in the end was impressive and yet nothing came out of it.
