You need to think this through. Messi going to City would do unspeakable things for them and go a long way to melting the plastic off their club. Having the greatest ever player playing for them at something like his peak is an honour they don’t deserve. By the time he’s done with them, they could be spoken about similarly to us.If he can help City to shut Liverpool up I'm all for it, obviously I would prefer us to shut them up but that sadly isn't likely at this moment in time.
That fascination seems to be popular on here too. Many want to give the job to unqualified ex-players like Evra, Fletcher etc. because 'they know the club'.Abidal is Barcelona's Director of Football?
I mean, wow.
Did Scholes and Giggs lack courage not leaving United?I'd have so much respect for him if he had the courage to leave Barca and join the most fast paced league in the world at 32.
Never going to happen though.
He makes English teams look like average ones in CL, don't think it will be a problem for him to smash PL clubs.I'd have so much respect for him if he had the courage to leave Barca and join the most fast paced league in the world at 32.

Adapting to England would not be an issue but if he came to United, I bet we ruin him in 6 months.He makes English teams look like average ones in CL, don't think it will be a problem for him to smash PL clubs.
Adapting to England after spending all his life in Barcelona, now that's a challenge.
100% thisAbidal will probably either apologise or be looking for a new job.
Good man. Principles first, even for fantasy scenariosI want this guy at United so bad I may even embrace MBS buying United. I probably will take this back in the morning.
Edit: No still no MBS.
That would be something to see.Off to Juve? They are the masters of the free transfer.
He and Ronaldo will be playing up top together next season.
I didn’t say he lacked courage if he didn’t leave, there are plenty of reasons for why he’d choose to stay. Just said that it would be a very courageous move to leave, especially to England at 32.Did Scholes and Giggs lack courage not leaving United?
Also Zidane, Ronaldinho, R9 & Kaka for never playing in the “most past faced league” ?
Don't think so, if they did Barca would be idiots.Will sign a new bumper contract in the near future.
Why? He is the best player in the world, their best playmaker, passer, goal scorer.Don't think so, if they did Barca would be idiots.
Fully expect him to sign a 3 to 4 year contract to finish his time off at Barca. He's not going anywhere.Don't think so, if they did Barca would be idiots.
