If offered on loan to us would Messi suit our "plan"? It would be a shame if we turned him away cos he's over 25.
Like others have said, can't think of an argument to suggest he wouldn't. He has performed against the top prem teams. If people are concerned about stature and size then just look at players like Silva, B Silva, De Bruyne, Hazard, etc and see how they have coped. And the argument that the premier League is better quality doesn't hold up for me when you see how Spanish clubs have dominated the European competitions. Greatest of all time for me.
I don’t, he rarely suffers injuries & plays over 60 games a season. Kane’s got a dodgy ankle & Aguero’s injury prone yet they manage to get 20+ goals virtually every season
