I mean no player should be hated but this messi hate is understandable since he refused to lower his salary and stay in his beloved team, he preferred money and seeing how MUCH did barça pay him…feel like this is a stab in the back. Even more when messi admitted that the problem was Bartomeu 🤷🏻♀️
Ok, not a Barca fan (psg fan here!) And I'm the first not to defend any Barca player buuuut hating Messi for not lowering his salery to stay at Barca makes zero sense because he did lower his salery. He literally did that. It's not like he wanted to leave. And even if he'd decided to play for you for free, you still wouldn't have been able to register him because you signed too many players on too high wages and exceeded your wage cap even without Messi so you can't keep him. That's the entire issue. Not Messi. And yeah, that's Bartomeu's fault. He fucked up your wage structure to kingdom come with his insane need to overpay players and you're now suffering from the side effects. Also, if you'd just sold Messi last season you would have at least made some revenue out of this so yeah, 100% Bartomeu's fault.
