I can’t ever recall a time where Madrid have gotten the short end of the stick when getting rid of one of their big stars.

Robben, Makelele, Sneijder and Ozil (to a slightly lesser degree) all performed at a world class level after leaving Madrid.

what is with this narrative that messi only won the world cup what???

He did though, which is fine. If Argentina bomb out in the group stage, and Messi had 25 goals and 25 assists for PSG, he wouldn’t have won the Balon D’or. It’s not a scientific award, there’s a massive world cup and sentimental weighting to it, that it doesn’t matter how he performed for PSG.

He was also terrible for Icardi’s winner, just falls on the floor.
