Who is this? 😀
if Miami's defense play well, Messi can win them the cup
0:40
Forgetting Messi played 30 minutes vs Cruz Azul and the moment he stepped on the pitch they became the better team.
I get it now. Since Shaka temporarily fell to illness, Gomez had to take his place on hating on Messi. Ain't nothin' new, ese. Rocking a Guatemala jersey, hatin'. Gomez making all the excuses that the worst team in MLS standings right now should've walked through Cruz Azul a lot easier, with the addition of two new players that don't understand the chemistry of the Inter Miami squad yet. For Messi and Busquets to jump in and make the impact they did is huge. Of course I've seen way better games than this, but haven't had this much fun watching his new transfer unfold. Excited what the rest of the year could bring with this team.
Pessidoog will ghost in mls👻😭😊
Even if he doesn't win, Messi has changed the MLS forever. Stop hating you whiners
Yo this mofo hater quality teams. What if they get destroyed by Messi too. All what Messi has ever done in his career is prove his haters wrong and turning them into his die hard fans. Don’t believe me? Go ask Saudi Arabia fans and Real Madrid fans too.
Philadelphia, the best bet.
This video deserves an applause. Bravo! 👏
clowns
Messi is there 😎 that's enough!
Miami was not winning 13 games before Messi comes.
It is not that they have messi and they will definitely win. It is whenever you have messi, you have a chance.
Why is this dude so mad?😂😂😂
Buddy I hate to break it down to you, the best performing MLS teams would loose horribly against the likes of Eibar or Osasuna from La Liga and there isn't still a singe defense line that exists anywhere on earth that can stop Messi from scoring goals. There wasn't any in Europe so you can be certain, that such a defense line doesn't exist in MLS. If you see Messi's last 2 games, he wasnt even giving 50 percent in the field. Compare his movement or efforts from his PSG games or even Argentina games that happened few months ago. The question isn't which MLS teams they face. They're all insignificant. The question is whether Messi will get serious in field. If he does get serious, then Miami will win any game Messi plays. if not then well only then other teams might have a chance
But Messi is in his final form…😉
If they get them players it’s not even close
Love herc is wearing a Guatemala jersey represent 💙🤍
Gomez listing these so called big teams in MLS as 'Big Dogs" as if they are players in the English premiers or the Spanish leagues….He forgeot the 3 men playing in Inter now (Busquets, Alba & of course the GOAT Messi…..& u have Suarez & Ramos to come) have years of experience playing the biggest leagues & best teams in the world & beating them…..Gomez panicking too easy.
We have seen such pandits saying sorry. I wont overlook this blud.
Big Dogs? Cincinnati who? New England who? Bro stfu, Messi is the Goat, these plumbers stand no chance
Inter Miami team is the only relevant team in MLS
Finally someone in American tv is talking sense. Rest of them are so high on hype that the obvious and basics are ignored
True. They dont stand a chance with their shitty defence with or without Messi
Hercules always has something bad to stay he did it with Zlatan now Messi
1:13 starts naming the “big boys” Messi literally played against top European teams n top international teams and won 🏅
If they got to the final they’d win it’s very rare to see Messi lose finals these days copa America World Cup finalisima copa de lare french super cup Cant bet agents him
Alba + messi + buzi >>>>>>All mls teams
