It sounds crazy , but I have enjoyed watching Messi games way more than recent Barca games. Barca games are very rarely very entertaining.

It's not nice to say but me too.

Barca's games in the last two seasons are so boring, lacks any spectacle.
Also, the element of a superstar/show (Messi, Ronaldinho, Neymar) is gone.

I have zero "attraction" sports wise for Pedri, Gavi and co.
I watch matches here and there only because it's Barca.

If I had to choose between watching Barca or Messi's adventure in MLS tomorrow, I would pick Messi in a heartbeat.

It's something different, new, fun, it's a show, it looks like an adventure: let's all cheer for Messi and see whether he will conquer Usa with the weakest team in MLS.

It just sounds and feel like a fairytale or a movie.
Look at how Miami's Instagram grew from 1 to 14m followers in two months.

As Khaled said, football is a show, this is an entertaing industry.
People want a show and good fairytale, and the owners are giving us what we want.

To a neutral fan, Messi and Miami is 100 times more interesting story than Pedri and Gavi.

Also, I don't want to go back on that topic, but you know my opinion how WC was rigged in Argentina's favor.
Why?
For the same reasons.
It's a show.
Messi is interesting, Messi is fun, everything looked like a fairytale.

Messi winning a Wc probably increased the income of a WC and Fifa for 200-300%.
And a few months later that story/fairytale continues in MLS where a hero Messi is now conquering Usa.

I mean, this is the most interesting sport-wise story of a decade.

On the other hand, imagine if Croatia or Morocco won a WC.
Less money earned, less buzz, no ability to write interesting stories about that, kids and neutrals wouldn't get their hero (like they did in Messi).

Also, Messi in MLS would have been less interesting story if Messi wasn't a WC winner.

** I won't reply about this topic anynore.
Since I have also "forgive" Messi, I love him again and everything.
It is not his fault IF the WC was rigged.
He is the world's most beloved posterboy and that's how it goes.
FIFA and everyone around FIFA (sponsors, media) are milking money on Messi and on Argentina's success.

So, go Messi and let's enjoy this spectacle.

*** unrelated to this topic, have you seen Onana's penalty vs Wolves and how the ref didn't give a pen?
Do you know why?

Because EPL show became stale with Man. City winning all the time and in order to keep the interest, buzz, show and income, the FA needs to create more interesting competition in the league.
So, be prepared for a lot of refs decisions against Man City and lots of decisions in favor of Man Utd, Arsenal and Liverpool to keep them in the race for the title as long as possible.

People want the show, thrill, drama and fairytales.
Man City is none of that anymore. Casual fans are bored so be prepared for decisions by "the invisible hand".

Btw. Inter Miami also had a few of refs decisions in their favor, because = it's in everyone's interest for them to win).

Sad thing is Barca would do much better this season if we still had Miami's amigos here without Xavi. Although I'd only want Messi starting and Imho on/off with Hamster benched.

SPL will go the way of the chinese league, remember when China was doing similar things years back? It never took off.
In the end Its the teams that make the leagues not the players.

1 year on and they already have Neymar Benzema, Ronaldo, Mane and many others

No one could have imagined this

This. The Chinese government never really got behind the CSL, they never warmed to the idea of Chinese billionaires pumping Chinese money into Europe.

While this is the Saudi Royal Family having fun over tea time, and has cost them so far as much as it costs us for a glass of tap water.

With all due respect to the Middle Eastern people on here, I just hate that insanely conservative culture, lifestyle and shit. The lifestyle in Saudi will get so boring even if you have all the money in the world. Dubai> SA cities.

Yeah, it's hard to find fun in the surrounding world, when you own several mansions, a private island and twenty or so high end urban residences all around the world and every second rich family wants to lick invite you to their orgies. Poor Neymar will have to go to mosque every morning at five and then go to sleep at 8pm after listening to hour long muezzin howling.

Also, that last Messi goal reminds me something:

CR7 complained about the lack of nightlife.......


Doubt he's poor.



Also, celebrities do like to go out. Nobody likes to spend all day at work and within four walls. Money can't create the enjoyment going out and having fun brings.


Always find it weird that the working class people just assume that wealthy people have no problems in life.
