as a barca fan: pls stay with us for one more season bt if you want to move pls go to city but it wont be nice when city with messi meets this current barca in ucl...

As an Barca fan.

Messi: I want to go and win everything. I have to leave for Man City or PSG.

Me: Please hang in here. Together we can manage La Liga first, then Champions league after one season

Messi: I want all at once.

Me: A breast in a man's mouth is worth two in a woman's brassiere.

Messi will take a lot of things with him away from Barca including a very high percentage of Barca fans who became Barca fans because of him. Barca is finished in Europe! Now they will learn a big lesson never to rely hopelessly on a single player again.

No matter how great you are Messi, if you are not going to win us (Man City) champions league then you are not welcome
Just like Pep, we brought him in for the same reason but yet to break Pellegrini's record in champions league with City is hard for him
We citizens want result not just name

Lol... Why not go to Arsenal or Man utd to price your goat status according to your clown fans

Good move....in life one needs to challenge himself....you can only know how good you are when you leave your comfort zone....
Though he. Should have left when the ovation was high..this is the case of a faithful wife who love her husband when things was going well but divorce him as soon as he was broke...Barca has been scam.

messi u old Barcelona fans no explanation u deserve to be happy now if ronaldo get mind make him come England back they for juve dey form new challenge

I hugely pledge my support wherever Messi goes. I'm in support of his decision to leave, let him experience football in a different league as many claimed he'll not survive in different league.

Apt...all eyes will be on him in the most popular league in the world,he better prove the critics wrong...this is the most crucial phase in his career.

You were great inside the Barca's jersey. We will forever cherish you. But you have to respect yourself and pay €700m cash.

Inasmuch as I would want you to remain with us, I'd respect your decision to quit.

Good luck Messi... Barca is greater than you

I just wander seeing some people jumping into what they knew nothing about
I don't need to explain to you or anyone but for your information i have been a Citizen before qualifying to our first champions league
I crossed with Tevez from Man Utd

And who told you that crossing from one team to another is glory chasing?

Which citizen? See this arsenal fan talking.

Stoichkov left, we were still Barcelona same with Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Luis Suarez Johan Cruyff so Messi leaving is no big deal.
