I'd be happy with him as our back-up striker. Aguero comes on to score the title winning goal in the last game to deny City, or even better the goal that guarantees relegation for city.
Lionel Messi \ Signs for PSG

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

PSG signing Messi, Donnarumma and Ramos all on free this summer is ridiculous.
And the water carrier from Liverpool.
It’s going to City and PSG who are favorites for the Champions league and they will both find a way to bottle it.
Barca can't register him. What's the point to stay?
Aguero is an absolute baby if he leaves over Messi going.
sign player for free is the way to go for player transfer. Players are running down their contracts, including Mbappe.
Pretty sure they signed up Ramos, Donnaruma and Messi (potentially) just because they became available.Wait that was also a free transfer.
Holy shit.
The most underwhelming part about this is Messi ending up in the French League. PSG is a stacked team right now but I'd rather him join Manchester City just to watch him in the Premier League, even Bundesliga would be something more entertaining.
I doubt Pep can stand the fact that he can only win CL with Messi in the team. My guess is he would like to prove people wrong.
True but it's just funny how they ended up having such summer without spending any cash to sign such 3 huge names.

Ramos called Messi. What the hell is going on ^^ This wolrd is going mad.
Yeah they're all in denial
Messi is going to sign for The NWO
Trust me - they’ve spent shit tons to get them it just hasn’t gone to a club.
I don't disagree that they're going to pay ton of wages for these players. Not paying any money for their clubs to get them is funny though.
How bloody weird will it be seeing Ramos and Messi celebrating together.
They signed Wijnaldum, Donarama, Ramos, have Marquinso Kimpembe, Gueye, they'll be fine.
Indeed. Won't be watching La Liga unless its free
The rules were vaccinated.
No but Raul wanted to stay forever.
Lille just won the league and PSG lost 8 times.
Sounds crazy as a United fan but I kinda agree. Would have loved to hear him on MOTD
He really doesn't give a toss mate. You think managers think the same as fans on forums?
Scenes when PSG are knocked out of the CL last sixteen, 2-0 to Olympiacos.
the term ‘Free Transfer’ makes you laugh……should be Agents Transfer - the signing on fee, agents fee, bonus fee, loyalty fee, bullocks fee - there is no difference once the final package is calculated - the only winner is the player and agent…..PSG is no more than a whore house…..
Greatest transfer window in the club's history by far, it's just absolutely ridiculous if they pull off the Messi signing. The wheels may come off in a couple of seasons, but who cares? It's worth seeing how this obscene spectacle is going to unfold.
That's exagerated. Your point isn't that off but there's no way getting Donnarumma for free even with big side fees amount to what we'd have paid had we bought him from a club.
How so?
There's actually a difference though. They saved the money paid for their clubs as well which would have been ton of money in case of Donnarumma and Messi.
That attack is going to be like taking a battle tank to a water balloon fight in Ligue 1.
Neymar Mbappe Messi, damn! Too bad their midfield is full of water carriers outside of Verratti like Wijnaldum, Gueye, Diallo and Herrera.

This... I'll be very sad because I think it's a done deal for PSG and it's just.... Well, not worst case scenario for my ideas personally, but the French league level... Messi will just stomp every team and while that'll be a spectacle, I was dying to see him in the Premier League. Sure, he's not peak Messi, but he's still as world class as they get, and I would absolutely love to see him have a go with the English...
The amount of wishful thinking and hoping PSG fail is funny
They'll be racking up trophies like it's no one's business these next 2-3 seasons

Messi, Neymer, Mbappe, Donnarumma
Ramos, Di Maria.
Even Zlatan would struggle to shine in that team. A scary line up indeed.

Mbappe wants to go to Madrid in the next 2 years.
Ramos is 35.
Wijnaldum is 30.
Neymar is 29.
Di maria is 33.
Of course they could replace those players with new signings.
I mean even MSN only won 1 CL title and that trio had better synergy + it had a younger and arguable peak Messi.The amount of wishful thinking and hoping PSG fail is funny

I don't necessarily think it's a given PSG win the CL.
Because so far PSG (or any club for that matter) has shown that having 3 ridiculously well-paid players works in winning the biggest titles, and FFP will become stricter after this summer, so I wouldn't be surprised if there's repercussions to signing players to crazy wages like Donnarumma, Messi, Neymar, and maybe Mbappe. I just don't see how it's financially feasible unless the new Ligue 1 TV rights deal gets an unprecedented boost with Messi's potential arrival.
It never is, my man.
The farewells have begun
Barca seem quite deep into this ploy/leverage play don't they...

Your guess is as good as mine, all I know is they have "relaxed" the rules for this year, whatever that means it's allowing PSG to go ham on the transfer window. I suspect the revisions to FFP once they unrelax will catch up to them, and I couldn't care less...I want to see Messi vs Angers.
It’s a team sport. They have by far the best squad they’ve ever had but still the best PL teams can potentially outplay them in CL. Plus there is no quarantee for the fitness of the likes of Ramos, Neymar and Verratti.The amount of wishful thinking and hoping PSG fail is funny

£200k p/w plus £70m signing on fee will give him equivalent wages of £880k p/w over 2 years.
Would actually make sense for most top clubs, won’t break their wage structure and sining on fee = ok transfer fee . For comparison City signed Graelish for £100m plus £200k p/w plus who knows how many million signing on fee and agent fee.
Isn't FFP pretty much deadYour guess is as good as mine, all I know is they have "relaxed" the rules for this year, whatever that means it's allowing PSG to go ham on the transfer window.

FFP is the reason Messi is leaving Barcelona in the first place, well that coupled with the Bartomeu board's criminal handling of Barca's finances.
Fair play atleast we have tried
