Talking Tactics discuss the fallout of Lionel Messi asking to be released from his Barcelona contract. Has Messi reached his limit, or is this political manoeuvring? Is it worth it for Barcelona to make this difficult? And how big would his loss be for the club? Thiago Silva is a Chelsea player: can having an elder as a centre-back work? Donny van de Beek to Manchester United? We close with Lyon 3-1 Wolfsburg in the Women's Champions League final, and why understanding the relative nature of sports is important. - Check our Patreon page, and think about supporting us! https://www.patreon.com/join/talkingtactics - Rate us five stars on Apple Podcasts! https://www.getpodcast.reviews/id/1127264410 - Follow Talking Tactics https://www.twitter.com/taIkingtactics https://www.instagram.com/talkingtactics https://www.facebook.com/talkingtactics352 - Talking Tactics Special Coup de tête: https://bit.ly/2DXSMVk - Follow us https://www.twitter.com/HaveHopeHut https://www.twitter.com/Ankaman616 https://www.twitter.com/DanielTiluk Learn more about your ad choices.
