The problem I see with all this is that it's clear that current Barca is not a force in Europe, this was plainly obvious back in 2017. Surely Messi as a top professional footballer can realise that the current crop is not good enough to win as they've shown.
However, a few days after we hear that players are being told to go, he's also leaving. Surely he must realise that keeping the current crop gives him less chance of a successful team than a rebuild, as shown in the last few years. Since 2016 we are 22-2 in knockout games away from the Camp Nou, if that doesn't show the current XI aren't up to it, nothing does.
It's been plainly obvious for a long time that Bartomeu isn't fit to be president, but he's waited until the last few months to decide to go. It's like running a marathon and giving up at the 25th mile.
