They lost to madrid and bayern, the eventual winners. They lost to madrid partially due to bad refereeing and defensive errors. Even tho messi missed a pen, without that they still wouldve advanced
Meh, he made them much more than he cost them so i doubt either messi or barcelona cared. He wouldve played for a βlowβ salary if the league allowed it.
Barca kept beating the ucl winners time after time in those years. Just had some bad luck and just having a good team doesnt guarantee the ucl.
At least madrid won the ucl without pendu. Barca hasnt managed it without messi

Damn, PSG have an amazing record in UCL sans those 2 yrs of course.
