We need GOAT
You are attractive 👅
Other guys will just have to step up
Yeessss! Trust fund member here! Glad to see you on the show Conradinho! 🎉
Messiiiiii 🐐
Depends on if Busquets is playing. If he isn't, then no, they can't
I really hope Messi plays next week at Chicago 🤞😥
The ATL game was after the internationals came back and they were exhausted.
I’m not one to usually comment, but….
The problem I have with this discussion is the fact that if with the possibility of winning the final tomorrow, and if they do, then Inter Miami will be considered a success. We have to understand that situation they were in pre-Messi and I feel that it is now slowly being overlooked. Just by winning the Leagues cup that is a SUCCESS for the season considering the position they were in. Very bottom of the table with no huge expectation but they had delivered and won the silver ware. Now, if they aren’t in the play offs for the mls then it isn’t a success for the season? That id what leaves me speechless. The difficulty to make it given the position they were and are in before all these signings occurred. Leagues cup alone is a success for the season, the cup tomorrow is a bonus, the play off position is not realistic. Not saying it’s not possible, but the expectations are exceptionally high.
None the less, I hope they do well and hope all players are in good health. Wish them the best in the remainder of the MLS season and tomorrow as well. Hope everyone who reads this is in good health 🙏
More Conradnhio please!!!!
Inter Miami may put up a fight if Messi doesn't play but they will definitely lose. If Messi, Alba, Busi plays for at least 1st half, then Miami would win.
Man without Messi is bad they can lose and Messi will be sad😭
Putting Josef Martinez to start over Campana in a predicted XI is the most egregious thing I saw in this entire video. Tell me you don't watch Inter Miami without telling me you don't watch Inter Miami.
They look alot better now, even without Messi, I hope Messi plays but if hes not ready i think Miami should be able to hold their own hopefully
If Messi was not there in semi final , Miami would have been out 😅
Dynamo is not a joke because inter needs to wake up.
This game is not gonna be a walk in the park, so messi is better to play. Otherwise, houston is about to make a statement.
Messi should come in the second half.
Just saw Inter Miami post an update. Messi was at Training today. I'm hopeful he will have some minutes in the final.
Miami only real problem here is that god awful defense, relying on Drake all the time
Joseph Martinez isn’t that guy….we need Farias
If Messi doesn't play 45+ minutes, I think Hector Herrera leads Houston to a win by controlling the midfield (i.e., a tired Busquets)
Messi will be on the bench and only plays if he is needed.
Its a huge chance for another trophy…Inter Miami needs Messi right now!!!!….Dont think the coach gonna want to play him for full 90 mins……can bring him on in the 2nd half.
He’ll play. It just won’t be for the full match. I think they should start him on the bench then sub him in. It’s better to bring him on later.
Can I watch the match for free on Golazo network??
Imagine thinking winning 2 trophies isn’t a success. What
I FEEL LIKE INTER MIAMI & MESSI 🐐 SURPRISE HOUSTON DYNAMO TOMORROW 😂💀
"Don't wait for opportunity; create it."
Messi will play full 90 mins!! Just wait and watch.
Alba is out. the fact this conversation is operating like he might be available says how low the knowledge is.
Bro talking about how good Houston is at home. bro, do you know anything about the subject? they aren't playing at home
from people wanting to give IM a grace period of a season to acclimate with the new signings then to the denominator of Leagues cup winner.
Withou messi, busquets and alba they are nothing
Yes they can win without Messi if they just focus and play well. Why not?
