If you didn't notice Messi is also a major source of income for the club lol, he makes far more than he takes and when that's gone we are even more fucked. He is a huge financial net asset and if he does leave you will see the effects of that in the coming years.

This.

Nobody will buy Depays,Busi or De Jong shirt.

And they are our biggest stars LOL

He hasnt done anything that was not more or less already in place.

Bar sign Aguero and fuck about with Wijnaldum signing.

I agree and I am not defending him but you do realize that in order do do anything more we need to offload Coutinho, Griezmann and Umtiti? Why in the name of God would anyone sane buy those players and pay them the salary they have here? It's mission impossible. There is no president in the world of football who would be able to fix this in such a short period of time.

On the other side Messi probably wants a 100 mil salary and a competitive squad. That's just unreasonable. He can only get those demands from City or PSG.

Laporta so far in transfers :
Todibo
Trincao
Collado
Firpo
Manaj
Moriba

All young fringe players, not one single high earner.

Yeah, he sold the only players desirable to other clubs that we can spare.
And of coarse he didn't get outset a single high earner, would you sign a high earner overrated old player from another club for long term contract? Maybe if you want to be fired.
If you are agent, would you have told your client to accept half the wage to go somewhere else and leave a great city like Barcelona?

The situation between Bar?a and Messi is broken. It is virtually irreversible. [rac1]

If this is true.... then it's over.

We need to sort this regardless. Either give him a proper send-off or sort out a new contract. This has taken far too long.

I am not slating him his hands are tied bit some try to make out he has come in ans started to turn things round and made many great decisions but in reality not done much at all that was not already set up.

If he leaves I hope Laporta is honest and sincere about why it led to this, in front of the press.

If it is because of players refusing to take paycuts or players refusing to leave then so be it.

RELA MADRID OFFICIAL:

The LaLiga and CVC agreement was concluded without our participation. This agreement, using a deceptive structure, expropriates from clubs 10.95% of their audiovisual rights for 50 years and against the law.

Leo Messi. Barcelona were planning for official announcement before Gamper - all agreed since days, then today they had ‘new problems’ in the process to extend the contract

Issues are confirmed - Bar?a and Messi will continue their talks to resolve the situation.

Boy if I were Umtiti, Pjanic,Griez, Coutinho and the other captains or anyone that doesn't want to take a wage cut I would be packing my bags now and getting the hell out because if Messi doesn't renewal oh boy I can't imagine the shit they are going to get from the fanbase.
