Barcelona are finished!!!
With Messi’s departure I think they’re going to find themselves in serious trouble, their team is not very good as it is but with him leaving on a free I’d say they’re in deep.

Not sure they're finished. Just got some short term Covd related cash flow problems.
Losing Messi is a blow but might also be a blessing in disguise.

Their squad is shite and all the signings they make these days flop, I don’t think they’re going to go bankrupt but I think they’ll struggle to compete both domestically and in Europe.

Short term they will be less dominant. Domestically all Spanish teams are suffering. Real Madrid also have a player firesale underway to cut costs.
Prem sides (and/or PSG and/or Bayern) should clean up in Europe.

They just sign players for way more than they’re worth and now they’re being punished for it, something has to change soon now that Messi is likely taking French lessons.

Only PSV could afford Messi and even they would have to sell to meet league requirements. He may only have America and a wage cut to look forward to.

He wanted to stay he was saying at his tear stained press conference.
But it'd mean a wage cut, a terrible burden when you're worth over half a billion. And the latest member of the 1% to cast himself as some kind of victim.
What planet do these people live on ??

And the latest member of the 1% to cast himself as some kind of victim. What planet do these people live on ?? I read somewhere that he’d need to take a wage cut of over 65%~ to stay, I definitely wouldn’t stay at Barcelona if I was him, the club is on the cusp of collapse and he can play with Mbappe & Neymar and earn a million a second in France in the milkman league.

Difference is he loves Barca and playing at PSG is meaningless to him - money aside

If he goes to PSG, for all the crocodile tears it's all about money.

Well kinda Barcelona can't afford him anymore I think his emotion at leaving a club he's been at since he was a teenager is understandable and genuine too Mpabbe and Neymar - alongside Messi (who shows no sign of slowing down) - is quite a prospect for all three players So, yeah, money talks etc but there's more to it
