The other thing with Messi is that I'd imagine FFP has rules against the Adidas chips in style transfer, surely, and even if they don't, realistically to come here he will want to earn more money than Ronaldo, or in other words a wage packet of >£20 million, and over the past year or so Chelsea has been trying to stick within the rules... Even if we get him for £30 million after selling Willian, or £40-45 if we sell Schurrle, with a wage packet of £20m a year, factoring in merchandise sales of, say, £5 million, basically it's the equivalent first year of buying Torres again, and every year after that Danny Welbeck. Not that I'm saying it's not worth it, it's just the scale of it for just one player...

Oh, and I have no doubt we'll get a load of unsavoury fans from Barca only there for Messi coming into the Chelsea circle.

**** Messi, I really dont want him. He is a worldbeater, but I dont like the man and I dont want us to pay that much for one player that turns 28 soon. If we have all that money we should go for Pogba and Reus instead. They are already stars and they are younger and will only get better. In Hazard we have our own Messi. No thanks.

Messi will never play on the wing and track back. He will play as #10 or striker.

4-4-2:

Costa Messi

Eden Willian/Os

Matic Cesc

4-2-3-1:

Costa

Eden Messi Wil/Os

Matic Cesc

Not sure about this, currently we don't have one absolute star in the team which is good. Cesc, Costa and Hazard are equal. When Messi comes it will disturb this hierarchy, he will be the absolute number one star. Not sure what effect it will have on the team.

This will obviously never happen but LOL at people actually saying they wouldn't have the greatest player on Earth here.

I mean, come on! :lol:

Mourinho does want to build a 10 year dynasty and emulate Sir Alex. With Messi added to our current side we'd have the Premier League locked up for at least the next 5 years guaranteed.

If we get Messi it would do so much for Chelsea as a brand! A deal like this would take us to another level and in the same group as Bayern, Real, Barca and mufc.

assume the fee to be around 120-140£m. Adidas will definitely help out with extra sponsor money. Roumors saying 70%(last year they said 50%).

If we get near the FFP line, I really don't think we will.. But if, we can sell Mikel - replace with Ake, Schurrle and Salah out - Replace with Isiah/boga. Cech is going.

I know its a fantasy move, but the roumors going nuts in my head :P Messis finishing is unbelievable.
