Messi wants to leave... Which we already knew.Anybody care to please translate ?
That's his old man saying there is almost no chance Messi stays at Barca.Anybody care to please translate ?
Messi had the blessing of not being hacked every game, things that wouldn't be a foul for Maradona would be a red for Messi... And the pitchesTo me the biggest issue is longevity here - Maradona was incredible and on his day possibly the greatest ever, but the strength of his career was more brief and most of that is down to himself.
Messi has been 1a or 1b in the world for 15 years. That puts him over, in my mind.
For my money, Messi probably is the greatest ever. And its only recently I've come around to that opinion. But the sheer volume of his greatness is hard to contend with.
Which is exactly how it worked for Neymar. Paid him about 30 million more than his buy out clause to do some ads for whatever state owns PSG. He bought himself out his contract and kept the change.They could just pay him an insane amount of money to do an advert for the airline or something....
Musicians, child star actors....astonishing how often the kids get ripped offOf course. That's part of the problem - all these footballers hiring complete novices to handle their business.
You don't really see this in any other market but athletics. It makes sense though, as a lot of top athletes are the product of overbearing parents.
There's a dozen horror stories of athletes whose career earnings have evaporated because they hired family/friends to look after their finances instead of professionals for everyone one that doesn't turn out disastrous.
I always thought Scottish players declined because sleeping in a box in an NCP car parks wasn't a good lifestyle for an athleteThat's why we've seen a decline in Scottish players in England too.
