Decided to join.
Messi in Miami
- Thread starter Bastian
- Start date
Lame
Seeing Phil Neville manage Messi would have been my greatest joy in life, we were all robbed in my opinion.
Time to drink in the tears of the Barca fans on the forum.
He is still at a much better playing level than joining the worst team in MLS but thank god it wasn’t Saudi Arabia
Can you blame him? What a place to live and wind down his career and a massive Spanish speaking City too.
Does it mean he throw away his legacy? He doesn't need the money.

I wish he remained in Europe, but he’s solidified his GOAT status so maybe it’s time for the sunset
Good move.
He mustn't know Phil got the bullet
Miami >>> Saudi Arabia.
Early retirement is a thing lately I guess? He’s got nothing to prove and I can see why living in Miami is more alluring than in Jeddah 
A massive mansion on the water in South Beach, plus very close (in relative terms) to Argentina.
Can't blame him. Looks dope!
Gutted we won't see the big Messi and Neville link up. 
Plus not to mention whilst he'll be a massive star there and the camera's will follow him everywhere etc, the lifestyle and culture will be much more familiar to his wife and young children than moving to Saudi.
Still a 9 hour flight!

Genuinely one of the greatest travesties of our time
But can he handle the woke stuff and DeSantis
Meh...you go to sleep and wake up and you're home.
“There’s no fecking way I’m playing for Phil Neville.”
“Say no more”
“Say no more”
Messi : "Is this that loudmouth pundit who once managed Valencia" ?
Good man.
When you're flying private jets that applies from anywhere TBH - though I don't speak from any personal experience
Fair play to him if true. Kills my thread about his avarice too, that’s to say whatever he’s being paid there he would have got shittonnes more than in S.A.
Only a 1 hour time difference though. 9 hours in first class with barely no time difference is honestly better than a 5 hour bus ride across the country to an away game.
Not a huge fan of Miami but this will do
It could be Messi lining up with Harvey Neville!
Phil or money
What was dead may never die
Despite the interpretation put on another very recent and similar situation, don't think it reflects badly on him that, at almost 36, his options were limited to a return to his former club or a move ('retirement') to Saudi Arabia or MLS.
Nice move for him at this late stage of his career. And should help get good international coverage for the MLS for a couple of years.

Pfft. It may well live yet!
Miami is the perfect choice for him… His wife and kids will love it. And he won’t feel estrange. I think i read 75% over there speak spanish… The quality of life will be much better than Paris.
Barca dodged a bullet. Emotional decisions seldom work out.
Messi doesn't fly first class, he flies private class
BTW, which country is a 5 hour bus ride across? You'll need a 5 hour bus ride to just get outta Florida!
What a waste of time PSG turned out to be.
It's an early retirement but doubt he gives a feck, he achieved his ultimate goal last Christmas. He can play a bit of football whilst relaxing in a great city, he'll barely need to train.

He's on a mission to be the most famous Florida man.
Fat chance, imho.
