Laporta: ?What happens with Leo is not a matter of money, but a matter of the future & sports. He wants to continue with this idea because he wants a team that can help him win leagues, Champions [League] and titles in the short-term?

win CL with Winaldum, Depay, Aguero and Eric Garcia

Add to that Dest/Firpo/Lenglet and we need a gif of Sad Mourinho !

The more I see confirmation of our actual signings this summer, the more I question Messi's judgement. Why kick up a fuss in 2020 about a sporting project (I sympathized with him here as we are legit trash for CL contention) only to turn heel and accept less money (than what PSG would likely offer) and a fresh collection of washed up seniors (Aguero, Gini etc.).

Man is legitimately terrible at making decisions.

Messi has a borderline functioning IQ if he's really convinced with this "sporting" project from Laporta. He should just speak to the press and say the only reason he's here is because of family and not wanting to go out of his comfort zone.

Mesdi should go outside his comfort zone to speak about it?

Aguero has convinced him. Without aguero messi would go :thinking:

Messi probably knows more about their plan than us mere mortals.

Next summer is likely going to be the big one.

The fuss was because Bartomeu was forcing Suarez out. Most refused to believe the amigos theory at the time.

Was clear as day Messi spat the dummy last summer when they punted Suarez.

He and amigos were used to having more influence than something like that happening and couldnt handle it.

Laporta + the board & Messi are the people who knows the most what's going on right now and next.

The real sign for me would be Koeman .

Messi according to his friends (dont give a shit what the press says) is too emotional so Laporta as a good lawyer/politician can easily turn his head. But i don't think so because Laporta loved Messi the kid and he still one of his biggest fan.

If he stays this summer, it certainly casts doubt on how serious he was about leaving last summer.

There were reports of Messi possibly leaving during the COVID break. Messi claimed he told Bartomeu he was planning to leave or wanted to leave earlier last season.

But sure he threw a tantrum because of Luis Suarez and the seniors.

Dont doubt Messi mentioned he may want to leave and had done so many times in past.. that is a way to exert influence and get own way also.

For me dont believe he wouldnt provide it in writing or seek legal advice about contract and dates in it if he was serious and had made the decision.

Messi and his team are not naive enough to think just mentioning to Barto he wanted to leave would be enough either.
