Pretty much. I think gician is just a bit triggered it's all resolved so early. Summer plans of posting nonsense in the Messi thread are all over

Yep.

But from Barca's perspective this is a good news and it's all I care about.

Messi: "My relationship with Barça is still hurting? A little bit. For not being able to say goodbye to people as I would have liked to. As I deserved

OptaBirdy out here acting like a discount criminal attorney, when the man was foaming at the mouth for months for us not to sign Messi...so when he doesn't sign, it's now:

"Which one did he say" :lol:

Yeah definitely, I don't know what on earth we'd want with yet another right sided forward. And one with his profile in this team. Would have been a terrible sporting decision.

Best midfielder around
Feels a bit like a waste. At least go to Saudi Arabia for the highest salary in football history and revival of the Messi v. Penaldo rivalry.

Messi won't be having much time off. He can play for Miami in a few weeks due to their season not finishing till like October.

Doubt the Messi family wants to live in Saudi Arabia :lol:

And it's not like he doesn't already have a billion

We don't have the cap space to afford Messi. In the end what Messi would cost on the books, coupled with the salary reductions is an impossibility.

Glad that this is over quickly atleast, and without drama

This decision proves two things.

1) not convinced by sports project excuse is BS, considering his dad used that to exit PSG and sign for... Miami.

2) Fairplay for choosing Miami ahead of Saudi. It means the decision of he, Alba and Busi isn't 100% about the money. Which is a surprise to me. I'm sure the plan was always Miami for the amigos, but the unexpected Saud money probably threw a serious consideration into it.

Shocking interview tbh

Pinned the blame on his family and Barca like we are in August and still hadn't signed him.

then plays victim card about media making him out to be the bad guy when he has his own responsibility for this mess

Just got a call from a socio at the club who's close to a board member, the board apparently went absolutely BALLISTIC after the interview.

🚨🚨💣| FC Barcelona are planning to release a statement after the Messi interview. The club is furious with Messi @gerardromero
