Has Messi's performance strengthened his GOAT argument?
C’mon now. Is this a question you should be asking? 😂 The man is already the goat and we expect him to do this in the MLS.
lol I’m sorry guys but that’s a stupid question… No it doesn’t matter… he could have retired after the World Cup… it wouldn’t have mattered… he was the goat even before he won the WC.
Messi looks like the child actor from the movie Empire of the Sun
what argument? against Portugal Ronaldo? Please, anyone who watch soccer knows there's no argument, Messi is head and shoulder above that guy.
World cup made it official tho
Messi been doing this in other leagues in Europe.. so, this doesn’t make mls soft or whatever, he’s just who he’s.. period..
Exactly messi doing this doesn’t make MLS soft my man scored 91 goals in a season with 30+ assists so what he’s doing in MLS doesn’t surprise me even at 37.
Ligue 1 is In Europe u know
@@asumahyeboah5389🤡🤡
All if his detailed and surface level stats were great in league 1 too
Also what a clown u r to say it like that.
@@asumahyeboah5389Nigeria is in the African League you know
Whole MLS is winning by having Messi playing in it. He was already GOAT before going to Miami.
He was doing this for seasons.
Sold-out stadiums.
All eyes on MLS because of Messi.
Social Media growth of everyone.
🐐 .Messi in Europe top 5 league in history
Most goals
Most assists
Most dribbles completed
Most chances created
Most golden boots
Most Iiffhs playmaker awards
Most trophies won
Its not bad look at all.... he is a freak
How r u surprised 😂😂
If it was Olivier Giroud putting the numbers that Messi is putting, then I can see how that would make the MLS look bad. But this is MESSI we are talking about. No shame at all to have Messi do this to you.
Messi is growing the MLS, if anything.
I wish he can stay longer so the defense in mls can elavate higher
So he is doing ths in the mls but not in ligue 1???…ths midget was stuck on 1 league goal in 5months back in ligue 1 all of a sudden he is a leading assists and goals….something messi has never done in Europe in half a decade….all of a sudden he is good….we saw messi contribute just 3 league goals..:.nd mbappe still won them the league…..thats how useless messi is…..
2:11 biggest facts ever, this is why no one else in my eyes comes close in terms of his abilities. You can compare Ronaldo's goalscoring to Messi's, you can compare De Bruyne's passing to Messi's, you can compare Maradona's dribbling to Messi's, but there is no one in the history who has all of those abilities together. Take away Messi's goals, and he is arguably the top 5 if not top 3 best players of all time, now add onto that 800+ goals and I don't see how anyone can not put this guy as the best player of all time.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👽🔥🔥🔥💥💣💣💣🔥🔥🔥🎯🎯🎯🎯✔✔✔✔✔
At this point the only people that don't agree that Messi is the GOAT are the Madrid fans. Even the Brazillians have conceded that Messi is the GOAT and that's saying something
I don't even believe CR7 is a better goal scorer than Messi,same as assist, Messi is better than debruyne,and dribble, it's still Messi...check the statistics
Lesser matches more goals compare to CR7
Assist more in person game ratio and in number than debruyne
And dribble more dribble ratio and no's than maradona...
That's is why he is far more superior to them
How can it be a bad look on MLS ? He’s been doing this to the best teams in the world… he scored 5 goals in a CL game… hat tricks against Madrid ( with the best defenders in the world) he was dribbling past the best players like they were kids.
Exactly
Yeah, I wish this particular narrative would stop. People act like he hasn't been doing the exact same things for the past 15+ years. He's literally doing the exact same goals, passes, and free kicks that he's done many times, but when he does it against the best defenders and goal keepers in the world, it's fine, but now all of a sudden, the league he plays in is subpar? The math ain't mathing, bro. That said, I hope that they'll change some rules to make the league better and closer in rank to the top 5 leagues. They need to be able to buy better players and nurture the young players
Yeah, not at this age. This didn't happen in France, a much lower league than la Liga. Not saying he's not the goat, but people are really pushing these MLS performances. It's a pretty bad league and it reeks of cringe. He doesn't need this in his resume.
@@BeefPapaanyone who thinks Messi’s résumé needs any more stats isn’t even worth arguing with tbh, he has lost a step ofc due to age but he still dominated the World Cup just over a year ago
@@BeefPapaMessi literally had 4 assists in a game and hattrick of assists twice or thrice for PSG buddy🤡he was never bad for PSG, goal scoring wise he underperformed in his first season but he has 20 goals and 20+ assists for PSG in second season without taking pens as well😂,he was the best in the second season so, don't say that he didn't do this,he has toying with french clubs in his second season🤡
If you ever played football you know what Messi been doing with the ball for the last 20 years is almost impossible !!! Thank u!!!
Messi can still run circles around the 20 year olds. They talk about him, as if he can’t run anymore. Messi has been playing at the top of soccer for a long time.
Inter Miami scored 6 goals and Messi involved in all 6 goals.
Goat thing.
3:30 - what kind of question is that? What does the quality of the league got to do with it? He ripped apart the World Cup just one year ago!
Inter Miami got trashed 4-0 by NYRB without Messi btw..and when he's there,its a totally different team
Messi is still the best #10 in the world. His vision, touch, and predatory instinct can unlock any defense in the world. However, at this stage in his career, it takes a specific team ingredient to allow him to work his magic: he needs HHEYA’s (Humble, High Energy, Young Animals) around him who are willing to run all day, chase down loose balls, and basically bust their butts for him. Messi was able to start unlocking this game when Rojas came on and started doing this exact thing. The tide shifted dramatically with Rojas on the field. The same thing happened in the 22 World Cup. Look at Messi’s ability to pick teams apart with players like Alvarez, DePaul, and MacAllister (only to name a few) on the field. In contrast, look at how difficult it was against harder European competition when entitled superstars like Mbappe and Neymar didn’t want to work hard out of possession. As long as Messi can continue to surround himself with some HHEYA’s, he will continue to shine. Long live the GOAT.
❤❤❤❤True🎉🎉🎉
You've said it all 👏
Nailed it ❤
Best 3 at least
Messi from 17 to 27 he was a HEYAA
The only time Messi didn't shine as he used to was when playing for PSG. He never felt comfortable, his game style was way different from when he played at Barcelona. When Messi plays like the last game, is because he is happy and comfortable where he is.
Only the first season at PSG too.
He was the best chance creator in Europe in his 2nd year at PSG.
I'm so sorry for the people who did not watch Barca games 2010-2019. But at least you get Miami-Messi.
I truly can't comprehend the haters. We're privileged to witness the world's greatest player showcase his skills weekly. If he's revealing gaps in the MLS's capabilities, that's a positive - it's a catalyst for the league's growth and improvement.
Messi is messi not bad look for mls ❤
More Messi coverage
Messi could still be doing this in Europe, he’s chosen to link up with his Barca buddies in Miami,
Imagine thinking he would leave Europe for MLS if he could still play there at high level.
@@ian_r125 He would have been back at Barca if they had fixed up their financial situation, Modric is still doing bits at Madrid at 38 and you think Messi can’t at 36 ? He’s completed everything and chosen to play out the rest of his career with his Barca friends, lifestyle, money, a bit of footy, he’s chilling now
@@Youafool500 And then he went to PSG and looked like a shadow of his prime. If Modric played in the MLS he would look like a 30 year old Modric. It's all relative. Messi still has the skills he just doesnt have the fitness anymore for the highest club level.
@@ian_r125 not like he didn't have any offer from europe. He has nothing to fight for. PSG was his training ground for WC. Now he has won everything. Messi probably gonna play till he scores that corner kick goal😂
@@ian_r125he was miserable in paris ssaid his family never settled there
Messi does not only shine for the team he makes his team shine around him. Thats the difference.
This Messi guy scored 91 goals in a calendar year in La liga. Back then La liga was considered the no 1 ligue in the world. Know the GOAT
Second half, one goal every 6 minutes.
Not only in "another legues in europe" "in other times"... he's doing it constatly at national team's level up to date.. GOAT.. simply that..
To all Messi haters! Thx u for watching the Goat!
@p4ndakh: Don't insult me. 😳
Ok? 🙄
I can't tolerate this kind of insult 😒
Messi please never retire nobody is better then you Messi Messi the goat 🐐 💙🇦🇷🫡🇺🇸
People who are upset about the best player in the world playing here in the US are doing it wrong. If your Fandom for the sport makes you unable to enjoy such a historic and exciting time, you are doing it wrong. 😂
Wherever Messi goes....he always on the coverage...LA Liga...World Cup...Champion League....Humiliate.. Real Madrid..Ronaldo...Machester United..Bayern Munich...name it....Messi has overcome all those teams...
If Olivier Giroud went to MLS and put the numbers Messi is putting, then I would say that looks bad on the MLS. But this is Messi we are talking about ffs. No shame at all in this case!
Messi is growing the MLS, if anything.
❤❤This man foretells two days ahead of the game 🎉🎉🎉
Oh and regarding the Messi content.... MORE PLEASE. I promise the majority agrees they just aren't as vocal.
Messi GOAT 🐐😍
Messi back to his best.. Hey just keeps giving and improving.. Love you Leo.. 🇬🇧🇺🇸
Look at Messi's achievement in the World Cup, against the world's best: he carried Argentina to the title, goals, assists, PKs, leadership, everything.
Are none soccer people beginning to understand the beauty of football because Messi is producing such great play?
He won player of the tournament at the World Cup. That might be the best competition there is.
Suarez is being overlooked,3 goals one assist.
Same with the player who played his first game .
Rojas was the game changer
Messi was involved in every goal
Inter Miami could have been ahead in first half if players converted Messi’s passes. Suarez and Rohas have the IQ to be in the space created and ability to finish. Taylor same. Cremaschi is learning. Gomez has clicked into gear this season. DiMaria said all he has to do is run and Messi will find him. With the right team mates, Messi’s playmaking skills will see IM scoring. Messi isn’t a selfish player. He plays for the team.
Not a bad look. He's been doing this for years that's why I followed him to mls. Messi the GOAT.
For those who say that the MLS is a mesiocre league because of the things that Messi is doing, let me tell you that Messi has been doing the same thing for the last 20 years in all the leagues that he has played, so more respect for the MLS, which is in the best moments, having the best of all time giving a show in each game...
MLS is mediocre, period. Have you watched a MLS game outside Inter? You cant watch a game of MLS without cringing. The quality of play is not even close to Top 5 leagues. Top 10 isnt bad but the quality between the top leagues and MLS are very apparent.
@@NJevoIXgsr I am going to answer you, exactly what Luis Suarez said recently, whoever believes that the MLS is sweet potato pie, let him come to play in the United States, many have arrived from Europe and did not do what Messi is doing, like this Simply put, Messi is Messi, and wherever he wants he shows it without having to prove anything
Messi a revolutionat MLS OK
Miami should improve in defense. Talking about Messi is pointless, being in the MLS is like a training for copa América for him.
Exactly imagine if this team had a good defense.
#MESSI has been doing his Magic with Barcelona & Argentina
As long as Messi stays healthy, they can win everything in MLS.
Messi fans see a video Messi: click
Messi haters see a Messi video: click 😂
Bad look on mls? This the same guy who scored 91 goals in a calendar year, only player who scored not 1 but 2 hattricks on casillas, dribbled 5 madrid players and scored in a ucl semi. He also made europe look easy.
Zlatan once said Messi will have fun scoring gols 😆🤣😎
Messi Goat!!!!
Finally 👍👍👍
Messi Messi Messi🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 Goat
Messi is Messi until his body wont take it no more. Imagine the previous night, Ronaldo had scored a hatrick and his assists sealed binned the DRAFTS
He always delivers
The league is fine if it wasn't someone else would have broken these records. Its just Messi being better than everyone else in the world
hate him or love him, you watched..that's all you can do
This is the best thing for the mls the fans too this will show the owners that the mls is a mines of gold for them to invest in each team to upgrades the competition for all the fans too invest there money and time for the next generation and for the fans that have their loyalties for teams in other countries to know that they can be proud of their home teams...
GOAT
Goat
Messi scored 5 goals in one La Liga game. This is just GOAT things.
and against Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League in 2012
Haters are better “fans “ than fans……their dedication to the team is unmatched……lol
Idc if it’s a bad look or not it’s exciting I don’t personally have a club I root for in the mls I just root for the mls teams in the champions league that’s about it but since he’s been there I not only have I watched most of Inter Miami’s games I watch more games as a whole so I think it will actually make us better as a league in the long run it would be so crazy if we get Ronaldo to the MLS at some point which is a possibility do you know how much excitement for the USA and the popularity of our sport would grow immensely.
I promise if Messi goes back to Europe and he’s happy he will do the same things maybe even worse 😢 he was not happy at psg at all and he still won the league twice smh it’s not MLS it’s Messi #goat
Come on man, this is Messi we're talking about. Ask them in Europe about him i think they know better.
I tell you MLS ain't bad but Messi is just phenomenal and an alien 👽
MESSI
The real goat
Games were way more competitive when Messi was playing in Europe. Messi has ONE world cup. It's not like he was running away in world cup play. If you drop Miami into any top league in Europe they fight to stay in the top half.
Messi should have come to MLS at the age of 40. What he is doing is serious
Oh, the timeless chorus of the uninformed, singing their favorite tune, "It's just MLS defenders, DUH." If these causals who just started watching football, spared a moment to educate themselves on the maestro that is Messi, they'd realize the folly of their superficial judgments.
Consider this: Messi, in a single season, crafted history with a staggering 37 assists, setting this record against the greatest of La Liga's defenders back in 2011. Let's not gloss over the minor detail of the 53 goals he also netted for Barcelona that same season. Furthermore, with a jaw-dropping tally of 372 assists, he stands unrivaled as football's all-time leading assist provider.
Not to mention, that magical pass that led to Miami's third goal, scored by Rojas, was a deja vu of Messi's wizardry in that World Cup game against the Netherlands which was scored by Molina. So Messi's brilliance isn't diminished by the league he's in; it's illuminated by his unprecedented records.
He was doing the same thing in Europe for the past 20 years, why state that he’s doing it because of MLS quality?
Fact - 5:36 yes Ronaldo is scoring but did you know Ronaldo had only 1 assist in the past 7 months?
😮😮 is that true?
He had an assist? 😂😂😂
We saw his performance in the last World Cup. It's nothing new
Messi is daddy
Stop it Alexi, haters like or not like all BS, just talk about his genius performance.
Well just compare the budgets. For the money they are allowed to spend compared to overseas clubs, the quality had been trending in the right directs for many years now.
❤🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Messi is gonna be great to improve the MLS. Without Messi, Inter struggles. So, it´s him. Many teams against Inter looks superior. But there is Messi right there to balance the equation. In the Premier league, still have weak deffenses, so, for the attacking players is very easy to score. They are hiring better deffense players to avoid that.
Leads almost every offensive statistic in Europe's top 5 leagues...was it a bad look then?
lalas transform from a hater to a fan . lets see how this end up
While people arguing about MLS and Saudi, which is better or what not, who's the GOAT what not, they are missing the most important part - the joy the messi brings to the world and the inspiration he brings to the next generations! Just freaking enjoy him while you still can! Clinging on to these bs and insignificant arguments while missing the most important element of football is the stupidest thing a true fan can do, unless of course you are not a real fan.
Nobody is arguiing who is the goat..and nobody in pro circles cares about irrelevant leagues like saudi.
I guess u r talking about teenage cr fanboys..bruh who cares about those teenage tiny brained clowns
More Messi content
"Is Messi the GOAT?"
"Ah what, what an incredibly stupid question" - Christopher Hitchens.
Messi was doing this to every team all his life just ask Real Madrid
Its cringe all the Americans thinking he would still be this relatively effective at Barcelona
Yes, he would be. Barca STILL needs a playmaker of his caliber, someone they have relied on for years after Barca's decline. It's evident that Barca has been miserable since he left; even when they won the league without him, they struggled to score goals throughout the season. So yeah, stick to cricket, casual. Football is for those who appreciate the timeless greatness of Messi, unlike Ronaldo, who is struggling in the Camel League.
Minimizing the man with the glorious LEFT foot through flattery in this reverse new way of yours wont get you anywhere either.
And since I am older could we give mi good name and reputation back though, for it's been how long 42 , 3 1/2 , 1680 days of you fighting the obvious, and still stubbornly at it?...Shema!!!
If Chicharito had done half of what Messi has done in less than a year in MLS then MLS would look really weak
𝑀𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑖❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's called FOOTBALL
They got better when Gressell was taken off. His replacement scored instantly. But gristle always starts🤦🏻
This thought of MLS is a soft league is absurd. Messi also did dirty to Van Dijk & Ake by doing that impossible pass to Molina in WC. There is no sane man can say that Van Dijk & Ake are soft defenders right?
So, to any MLS defenders out there, you shouldn’t be ashamed guys!!
It’s just a GOAT thing.
How about some for el Pistolero Suarez. Hattrick and an assist just quietly.
How can you turn around this unimaginable success and talk about damage? What sort of a spinning the story is it?
Just accept and be greatful that he decided to humble everybody in the MLS.
Are you Messi hater or what!! Lalas
Don't you even listen? Are dumb or are you sitting on your ears?
Barca do a big mistake when force messy to go from Barcelona cos he still could play there with no problem
Ok MLS is not the strongest leagea in the world but by far its not the weakest so if you put Messi in Romania league he is going to Dominate and do the same in so many other league's....
He plays in a pee wee league. He's a professional. What do you expect.
Bros, FC galaxy is hot too. But guess what? Demaria is on his way to join inter Miami. So if I think that the inter Miami is gonna have a hard time, they have prepared for worse to win it all
Messi did even worst in LA Liga. Messi made EPL teams look like MLS teams in CL games. Messi dominated in the WC. Messi is going to dominate again in the upcoming copa America. Truth is Messi could still be playing in Europe if he wanted to. He still has a couple more years in him. All I'm saying is.....this is Nothing new!
What makes it unique is that there were million players that were great in their 20s ,mid 20s or even 30s but not player from high competitive league like Europe in their late 30s will conquer so fast another league, usually these players are “retired” because of their age and their performance are low,Messi performance still competitive even for a basic league like MLS.
Competitive? He should have been in europe
Goodness Lalas is salty. What’s with the former US players n straight hatin on the 🐐 ??
Amazing what you can do when everyone you play against has to pee clean but everyone looks the other way for you
Messi wouldn't be able to do this in the top leagues of Europe. Also, no other player in the world could do the same things Messi is doing in the MLS.
Don't forget, this guy has been doing the same things to all the best players since he was a child. It's cool for the discussion but cynics have no viable argument to criticize MLS. Criticize the rest of the world who he"s owned equally.
