There likely won't be another Messi for years to come anywhere in the world, so it will be hard for anyone to keep up the level of play their fans will have grown accustomed to.
Probably not for a few decades I'd say. I remember people talking about Munir as "the next Messi" but I haven't heard tell of him for a good while.

Valverde. Barcelona tried to sign a couple of times.
Spanish (from Barceclona) press says that they have an agreement with him

You mean smallest of all Messi, surely?

Without turning this into a Wenger thread, they've still underachieved massively. The polarisation amongst fans is hardly surprising.

Think Enrique has done the right thing. He's done well during his time there.

The Sevilla manager is the hot favourite atm.

He's been Arsenal manager for that time though. Getting drawn against Bayern every year, even when they win the group. He's more qualified for the Barca job than anyone they've appointed since Van Gaal in 2002.
Never going to happen. They'll appoint a former player or someone who hasn't been s*** for years.

At ARSENAL. He has failed massively whereas the other two haven't.

If they were looking for a one year stop-gap appointment while they waited for their number 1 choice then there's no reason they wouldn't go for Wenger if he doesn't renew his Arsenal contract. Considering his experience plus the fact that they wouldn't have to pay a penny in compensation I'd say he'd be a perfectly feasible choice if they did have to wait a season to get their preferred man.

Imagine if he goes and spends £200mil in his first window <awe>

I think Pochettino would be the best choice.
