Messi – PSG: He announces a great disaster
Published on April 7, 2023 at 01:00
Free in a few months, Lionel Messi is close to a departure and might find FC Barcelona. A return seen with a very good eye by many Blaugrana supporters, encouraging Joan Laporta to activate despite the obstacles on his way. However, this operation is not unanimous in Spain, where some criticize the “nostalgia” of the club culé with heavy consequences.
forced to leave the FC Barcelona two years ago, because of the financial problems encountered by the Catalan entity, Lionel Messi might make a comeback at Camp Nou. The Argentine’s lease with the PSG indeed expires, and its extension is no longer valid. Nostalgic for his life in Barcelona, Messi and his family would thus look favorably on their reunion with Barcelona, and the converse is true. The culé club confirmed by the voice of its vice-president Rafa And you the existence of discussions with the Argentine camp, while the Camp Nou public chanted the name of The flea during the King’s Cup semi-final second leg once morest Real Madrid (0-4). But this project also has its detractors.
Barça harshly tackled for his projects with Messi
« Barça lives rooted in the past and what Xavi does best is to focus on the future. ” That is how Alfredo Matillaeditor-in-chief Reliefis of interest to FC Barcelona with regard to Lionel Messi. Since the departure of the Argentinian, the culé club has been in the throes of change and finally manages to get its head above water, heading for a 27th crown in La Liga thanks to its 12-point lead over the Real Madrid eleven days from the end, thanks to a well-oiled team whose Xavi, called to the rescue in November 2021 following the departure of Ronald Koemanis the great craftsman.
“It is very disturbing to get carried away by emotions”
« It is very disturbing to get carried away by emotionswarns Alfredo Matilla on the Spanish media. And if Laporta has taught us anything lately, it’s that he’s always regarding to overflow like a river. I was thinking regarding it last night listening to the stadium singing Messi, with Busquets chasing Rodrygo without even having time to catch up with him. The president, in the heat of the moment, is capable of anything. He is a man who thinks with his heart and therefore makes his head beat. (…) While many still live for Cruyff, bragging regarding the Guardiola era and cheering on Messi – what a good time – the coach is showing the way forward with Araujo, Balde, Gavi and Pedri “, continues the journalist, not believing in the recent call from the foot of Xavi towards the striker PSG : « So it’s a safe bet that his public statements in favor of Leo are just a courtesy to the best player in history. Backtracking while others lift the Champions League, even as a short-term solution and a perfect smokescreen to institutional problems, would be tantamount to plunging headlong into all the big snowballs. »
“Barça, if they might, would continue to field Henry”
« If the new Camp Nou debacle once morest Real Madrid has taught us anything, it’s that to put the project in the hands of a war veteran like Lewandowski is to have understood absolutely nothing. All Blaugrana rivals are flying on the back of new blood as Barca, if they might, would continue to field Henrycritique Alfredo Matilla. A Barça-Messi reconciliation, as a marriage of convenience, would be a premeditated and malicious self-harm. ” Although the FC Barcelona has managed to find some form in sporting and financial terms, the situation remains fragile. Joan The door must further reduce the payroll by €170m and manage the thorny Negreira Affair threatening the culé club, which notably risks exclusion from the next edition of the Champions League by theUEFA. Sportingly, the team of Xavi is capable of the best, but also of the worst as the humiliation suffered at home on Wednesday evening once morest the Madrid rival proves it. It is therefore difficult to imagine that the context is favorable to the return of Leo Messiwhich shines with its discretion in major meetings with the Paris Saint Germain for two seasons.
« Beyond what it would mean financially in a box the Argentine helped digthe editor of Relief alluding here to the overflowing payroll of the Barça what John Laporta still trying to lighten up, the impact on the field and in the locker room is worrying. His best sporting adaptation would force him to recycle his current position, the one that made him unrivaled, as a playmaker. There, Barça might rely on his vision and his intelligence between the lines without relying solely and exclusively on his races and his goals. I see Messi escaping Tchouameni, but not leaving Militao behind in the race. The years do not forgive. But since that won’t happen, because no one would dare to argue with a Ballon d’Or, his arrival would once once more jeopardize all plans in his style, with Dembélé or Pedri obsessed with kicking the ball instead of exploding like the jugglers that they are. Not to mention the humiliation of stripping Ansu Fati of the 10th, which would be the ultimate grievance to the confidence of the leader they proclaimed for the next decade. Messi deserves a movie-worthy finale. He’s done it before at the World Cup. “For the former journalist of the daily ASso it is impossible to imagine that a happy end of the career of The flea goes through his return to Catalonia. ” Barca have time to decide. Continue to simmer a squad that he will soon be boasting regarding, in the eyes of the whole world, on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, or take the side of acknowledging a historic error and recovering the legend to simply enjoy it, with tasteless goals in Montjuïc, the weekends. A dilemma strangely resembling that of the PSG when looking at the situation of his number 30 …
