KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Salah for Messi?

If Barcelona are so keen on getting Salah I think Liverpool should say ok but only as a straight swap for Messi!! I believe this will slow their unwanted advances!!! What do you guys think??

Messi doesn't wanna come to us. No way we would be able to.affird his signing on fee. Or he wages.

Messi is a mercenary. I don't want him.

Supposedly loves his boy hood club who he says gave him everything.

Complains that they're struggling to get players in when he's on 900k per week.

Messi has played for the same team since he started football how can you call him a mercenary? He is unhappy with the clubs status but really doesn´t want to play anywhere else. He would never come and we could not ever pay him enough and on top of that he isn´t a player for EPL at his age.

I prefer we keep Salah.

Messi has threatened to leave Barca a few times over the years, then magically signs a new improved deal.

We would need to make the team/style all about Messi, that's not how Klopp operates, I would not like that, we are a team, better than the sum of it's parts, which makes us successful. Lots of teams have spent far more than us on individuals, but they are not a better team than us.

Mercenary may have been the wrong choice of word.

You have someone like joseba exteberria. Loved Bilbao. Played his last year for free. To give back to the club

Schalke have got money issues. Ibisevic has signed and will play for bonuses only. To cover his own insurance. To help the club

Messi. 'loves barca' needs a new contract every year but also gets to leave for free just in case
And yes he's the best in the world but his wage is embarrassing his demands are embarrassing.

He would have been a legend and now he looks like a right tit

Salah easy, younger, hungrier and fits the team.

On skills definitely Messi is far ahead but also older. I would still say yes to this futile thread as it will never happen, we cant pay 28m for Thiago, therefore definitely wont try to get Messi for 100m (assuming this is what Salah is worth which is probably on the low side) without counting his wages.
