Messi in very end of his career does not want to gamble with a strange coach whom he has not yet worked with before. So from this point of view, Pep is the best coach for Messi. Pep won't leave Manchester City so Messi will come to join the party with Pep.
I doubt that Messi can really help Manchester City. He is 33 and English football is different from the one he used to know in Spain. The game system would have to be adapted to him, which means that ManCity would have to change its current system. That would be bad for a well-rehearsed team. Besides, it would take at least a season to make it work. By then Messi will be 34, almost 35, and none of this will work.
I can't agree with your thought. He is now 33 but he have still good fitness . I hope he can easily serve the team 2 or 3 years . Although English football is totally different than Spanish . I think English gameplay is more faster than Spanish . It will take some time for Messi adopt to English football . But i hope , Messi has the ability to adopt himself to the situation .
