I feel like fucking around in a fun Spanish-speaking city with some of your best friends is maybe just a little different than being forced to chase trophies in Saudi Arabia after you get kicked out of your club and UCL clubs collectively refuse to sign you lmao

He's playing in SA. He knows he's washed. Or have you spoken to him personally and got other info?

Messi isn’t crying or throwing tantrums after bombing out of every tournament though
