That would be a worry, he would ruffle a few feathers and could be quite disruptive.
At best City get grudging praise through gritted teeth so even if we signed Jesus Christ it would be "..he may have turned water into wine once but all the money in the world cant buy miracles, and besides, do they REALLY need another defensive midfielder?"
Expecting our piss poor media to get excited about anything City is misplaced optimism, and IMO this is all a ploy by Messi's advisers to get more money and power from Barca, so its a bit of a non-story really...a sign of the times we live in
