Must mean Kovacic is better than Messi and Pep is some sort of idiot. Hold on, you are the one that created that yardstick You can't then have a go at others and suggest they came up with it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why then should be go for Mctominay ? Or Gordon in January ? No top club went for Trippier so was he a mistake? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 3 minutes ago, KaKa said: He was in a team that completely dominates a weaker league with their players operating at 50%. The only team that could perhaps get away with accomodating him in the same sort of way in the Prem would be Man City. PSG are one of the most unbalanced sides imaginable given the money they’ve spent and players they could have brought in. They have a lot of players who love running with the ball and have great technique and their play style is essentially “let the lads play how they want to as they’re better than the other team”. I can’t be arsed to argue this point as Messi isn’t coming but there’s a major difference between a team like ours where everyone gives everything signing the most gifted player of all time who can’t run anymore or perform any defensive duties, compared with PSG having him. Sure, it could affect the way other players feel, seeing someone not give everything like they are but the idea that you can’t work out a system to include a player who’s still world class is where I’m calling you out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pata Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 (edited) Cheer up Kaka for god's sake. Seeing Messi play for NUFC for a season would be a privilege and something forever written in the football folklore. Even if he couldn't do it on a rainy night in anywhere IN THE PREM he would lift the status of the club more than anything we could do on the pitch for the next decade. And I don't think anyone is seriously believing it could ever happen. Edited June 3, 2023 by Pata Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is getting linked to US clubs and Middle East clubs. That is why we shouldn't be going for him either. Do I really need to explain that?

LiquidAK Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Won’t happen, but even a season would be incredible.

Unfortunately though, it would tie up a lot of money, and the squad needs a lot of work. The reality of his performances at his age especially with how we play wouldn't be too great either I don't think. The reality is more likely to be injuries and lacklustre performances. For a team like Man City perhaps it works, but we're not there yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 I’d prefer we didn’t sign up, especially with some Saudi loan loophole, solely because I’m very much enjoying this slow(er) build where people are forced to give credit to the manager and players. Signing Messi would just be wall to wall “buying the league” type of nonsense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is it. Mental and fun to think of for 5 mins, but I've no realistic expectation of Messi strolling into little Benton to have a kick about with longstaff and co. Mainly because he's shit and doesn't have the engine for Eddies mags. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone says they don't care if he only scores one goal, because they get to see Messi, I think that is childish and kinda cringey. It's hardly some big insult man.
