He is not only « walking@ on the pitch, he analyzes the game and the players positions / movements. Many videos shows how he analyzes and then find a weakness in the opponent team game system.
A long time ago he hung out up top and he was heavily marked. Now he hangs out in midfield and shows up in the final third at the exactly right moment.
I always loved this type of players, classic 10. But Messi is Messi, but let's pretend we want to compare two competitive teams at their respective league, without entering to judge the level of the league. Then ask yourself this question: Do you prefer a 36+ player that runs all the game and can only score penalties, send free kicks right to the moon, rarely make any dribbling or hardly ever make anything out of the ordinary? I have my own answer, for my own taste, everybody should have their own
Messi has accomplished everything in football now it's time to create something new! It's not just being the best and scoring scoring scoring for yourself but his presence spurs his team mates dormant talent, skills they didn't even know they had, he unlocks it for them!
When you search Messi on google, all his PSG photos are gone from the first 10 it’s funny. But imo being at PSG helped him focus on Argentina and win the WC
Incredible the disrespect towards the game. I dont mind some jokes or sticks toward the situation. But honestly the Craig should honestly get a hold of himself. I doubt he was as fit when he was 36 years, of course MLs dont have caliber of players of Messi, Alba, Busquets, but they are older too. And Nashville literally could have won that game, just like Dallas. They shut down the center in a good way so it was hard to get passes to Messi or get the ball in front through the center. The games are getting harder for Miami, though fatigue also may be part of it. Only because you are a elite player doesnt make everything easy or autowin the competition... MLS may not be on par with other elite football leagues, but there are still athlets competing and trying their best. When other top athlets went to mls to retire as they say, many of them failed quite hard and didnt have a plan. I think the fact that Messi went their having a good plan to successed and using the negative lessons of psg to be happy in Miami shows a lot.
They don't care to do actual analysis over at ESPN FC. They completely disrespected Shaka who was making a good point about the game and they disregarded Wayne Rooney's (someone who's played and coached here) point about the rigors of MLS. This is not a serious show.
Im so tired of the cynicism and sarcasm of craig. We know it is not the premiere league, but let us enjoy it without "witty" comments just for a second
I agree with you. Am i the only one who thinks on the whole that the Premier is seriously overrated? Apart from maybe 2-3 teams the others are bang average and the only reason it's called the best is because players run around like headless chickens!!
@@ruddock7 I think overrated is a bit strong. The EPL legit does have the best talent in the world from top to bottom. I think what might get misconstrued though is that some people think the Premier League is the best just because it's European and not because they're the ones with the money. As is clear from all the guys going to Saudi Arabian teams right now, if you have the money they will come. MLS could definitely raise its profile by increasing the money exponentially and attracting considerably better talent. They did the right thing though by making sure the league was stable first.
Stop having Craig on to discuss Messi and MLS. He doesn’t watch MLS. His tone is completely dismissive and almost scoffs at the idea he even has to talk about non European soccer. No brings nothing to the discussion

Messi is the goat of course and so you will always see his impact on this stage. But do more than just dismiss it with a shitty attitude.
Agreed. The belittling was off putting, even by Dan who I really like. Yes Messi is the GOAT, but he’s also 36, and is physically unable to make the runs he did a decade ago. There’s a reason why Rooney said Messi would find it hard, and that’s because the one thing great players from Europe can’t avoid, is age and the impact it has on your play. Which is why seeing what Messi has done with this team is so impressive. So ESPN FC, stop minimizing the impact he’s had on this team and league, and praise it like you rightfully should.
The amount of penalties and free-kicks Messi gave to Neymar, Suarez and now Martinez (while even being on a hatrick or in a top scorer race with Ronaldo), is enough to make him not only the greatest but the most humble of the greatest.
Great game.....!!!! I don't fans of Inter Miami but i feel soo happy when they Winning the league...🎉 Congratulation to the whole team of Miami and great goalkeeper perform also...👏👏👏 Awesome final game.....🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️
Why do people have to ALWAYS start criticizing the quality of MLS ? It's the highest level in America and Canada. It's grown every year. It keeps growing. Why not just enjoy the competition and be grateful that Messi Beckham Henry Rooney Higuain Vela Zlatan etc have all played here even tho MLS is not Europe. Our league still attracted them to come. And every time that happens it helps our growth. The league is less than 30 years old man!! I'm proud of MLS and think Garber is best commissioner in US sports
I wanna speak to the ones who were around when Pele came to the states to play. The ones who are old enough and witnessed him. Was he this good when he played for the Cosmos? Honest question. Did he score right off the bat that quick coming in? Or did it take him a couple games?
I wasn't around then of course but Pele did score in his first game with the Cosmos which was a friendly. He went on to score 37 goals in 64 matches for the Cosmos and won the league championship. Of course it was a very different time and they didn't play as many games. No US Open Cup, no international play, etc (those things did exist but NASL didn't participate).
Beckham&co are very smart.Their quick thinking of bringing Busquets&Alba to join Messi very early was just a wise investment decision.They knew bringing 3 top players who played for the same club for years playing in different positions will make sure his team would have mentor player in different team positions.When other owners would have taken time to figure it out that having only Messi for eg who isnt experienced in defence wouldn't bring much defensive wisdom the team was lacking.Its incredible to realise that had he brought 3 players playing in same positions as Alba&Busquets who never played together at club level were going to struggle to play as a team.Very smart decision from Messi as well,the fact that he has a chance to own MLS club for a reduced price would be much affordable instead of In Arab country where they would either prevent foreign investors from owning any Saudi leaque club or the price would be extremely high for foreigners to afford.I foresee many wealthy investors especially Americans competing to own or co-own MLS teams cause in under 5yrs MLS teams will cost much more to purchase.Its most probably what Beckham said to Messi if he has desire to own football club that is!Its much lucrative to earn what Messi is earning at MLs and get a chance to own football club for life(potentially)than earning massive salary at Saudi leaque for only 2yrs¬hing else afterwards,by the way he still earn something from Arab state just for being their football ambassadors.USA has one advantage over Saudi!Population size meaning US still has enough potential football fans who could still support their favourite sports like Basketball&American football as well.
Craig Burley’s obvious distain for MLS is getting old. I get it… top flight European football is of a higher standard. Why must he make sure to act like every match is a joke and anyone excited by this is not cultured. ESPN is terrible for the growth of the sport in this country.
What you expect from a bully, that seems to have sadistics tendencies. The guy literally likes to keep others down, and down play them. Sure, he can be fun but you not gonna enjoy him when you actually are the target...
He made the bottom placed team in MLS n made them champions of a new tournament. The impact of Messi is mind-blowing. Shaka don't worry it takes time to get things rite for every team they play. Nashville were good but Messi won. World is happy
you can't witness the greatness of Pele, Maradona in front of your eyes, but you can witness,maybe the greatest player of all time,enjoy while messi there,chill from Malaysia
The exposure and worldwide focus on MLS thanks to Messi is a net positive. The league has come along way. Went from always losing to Liga Mx to dominating them. This will only help it grow more
People don't understand the impact Messi has on the MLS and Inter Miami, since he arrived with Busi and now Alba also they instantly are the team to beat, any team want to beat Messi but it also means more pressure and more expected from his Inter Miami teammates because Messi is demanding a higher level a higher standard of play.
I thought Messi had his worst performance, but he delivered when needed as almost always. I say almost because his UCL knockouts last 7 years have been 🤢🤮
@ESPNFC : It is so disrespecting when you say he didn't much till he scored a goal, what do you expect from a footballer? In complete 90 minutes ,divided into 22 players, you barely get the ball for a moment and that's when one has to showcase their talents.
When you win penalty shootouts, it gives you confidence and makes you play well. Miami will play with the confidence that even if they go to penalty shootouts, they don't care that much. It decrease pressure and they can play better
David Beckham is spot on that’s the biggest compliment anyone can give to Messi and this inter Miami team. They are playing at a complete 360 level and Messi is just the definition of perfection.

Messi is incredible
Not words needed
⭐️⭐️⭐️🐐🇦🇷❤️✨
King Leo ❤❤❤❤❤ he is the Football King of all time. So don't bring him out to compare with the others, ok. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thumbnail is freakin awesome!
Thank you Shaka for the proper analysis of the game. Means a lot to loyal soccer fans.
Messi raised his hand and the defender listened and passed it to him lmao
Psg clowns would try to dribble and do solo goals
Ronaldo known for Siuu and penalties while Messi known for Amazing goals, performance and trophies.
Not one single Barcelona fans that have been following his games for the last 15y will act suprised by this, that goal is so typical Messi goal
Outside the box , fav messi goals
Glad to see Shaka healthy again, but All due respect hurting qualify of the show.
A compliment from commentator like Shaka is something.
Couldn’t be done without Busquets also
I agree with Craig here, enjoy while Messi is playing in MLS because it's FUN to watch him play.
I wanna speak to the ones who were around when Pele came to the states to play. The ones who are old enough and witnessed him. Was he this good when he played for the Cosmos? Honest question. Did he score right off the bat that quick coming in? Or did it take him a couple games?
I wasn't around then of course but Pele did score in his first game with the Cosmos which was a friendly. He went on to score 37 goals in 64 matches for the Cosmos and won the league championship. Of course it was a very different time and they didn't play as many games. No US Open Cup, no international play, etc (those things did exist but NASL didn't participate).
That was about 50years ago🤔
Beckham&co are very smart.Their quick thinking of bringing Busquets&Alba to join Messi very early was just a wise investment decision.They knew bringing 3 top players who played for the same club for years playing in different positions will make sure his team would have mentor player in different team positions.When other owners would have taken time to figure it out that having only Messi for eg who isnt experienced in defence wouldn't bring much defensive wisdom the team was lacking.Its incredible to realise that had he brought 3 players playing in same positions as Alba&Busquets who never played together at club level were going to struggle to play as a team.Very smart decision from Messi as well,the fact that he has a chance to own MLS club for a reduced price would be much affordable instead of In Arab country where they would either prevent foreign investors from owning any Saudi leaque club or the price would be extremely high for foreigners to afford.I foresee many wealthy investors especially Americans competing to own or co-own MLS teams cause in under 5yrs MLS teams will cost much more to purchase.Its most probably what Beckham said to Messi if he has desire to own football club that is!Its much lucrative to earn what Messi is earning at MLs and get a chance to own football club for life(potentially)than earning massive salary at Saudi leaque for only 2yrs¬hing else afterwards,by the way he still earn something from Arab state just for being their football ambassadors.USA has one advantage over Saudi!Population size meaning US still has enough potential football fans who could still support their favourite sports like Basketball&American football as well.
Craig Burley’s obvious distain for MLS is getting old. I get it… top flight European football is of a higher standard. Why must he make sure to act like every match is a joke and anyone excited by this is not cultured. ESPN is terrible for the growth of the sport in this country.
What you expect from a bully, that seems to have sadistics tendencies. The guy literally likes to keep others down, and down play them. Sure, he can be fun but you not gonna enjoy him when you actually are the target...
The.alien, the GOAT.... Lionel Andress Messi 🐐👽
Great gesture by messi to give trophy to yeldin
Sergio is just something else
He made the bottom placed team in MLS n made them champions of a new tournament. The impact of Messi is mind-blowing. Shaka don't worry it takes time to get things rite for every team they play. Nashville were good but Messi won. World is happy
I wonder why ESPN never posted Ronaldo winning the Arab Champions Cup
If messi loses then messi didn't do anything and when messi wins then messi didn't play his best. Pure hypocrisy
If he loses they say because the team sucks and he doesn't have the talent around him.
2:32 "he looked like he never kicked a ball before" 😂 sounds funny with an english accent
I think his accent is Scottish
Messi the GOAT
Nashville should honestly have been the darling of this tournament after beating all those strong mexican teams, BUT MESSI!
you can't witness the greatness of Pele, Maradona in front of your eyes, but you can witness,maybe the greatest player of all time,enjoy while messi there,chill from Malaysia
In a way seeing Messi is like indirectly seeing Pele and Maradona. He has some of the best qualities from both of them.
The exposure and worldwide focus on MLS thanks to Messi is a net positive. The league has come along way. Went from always losing to Liga Mx to dominating them. This will only help it grow more
Less than 1 mounth and Messi give to inter miami his first trophy what a greatest player
What a Trophy That was just Made In 2019 ?

44 titles for messi more than Bayern
People don't understand the impact Messi has on the MLS and Inter Miami, since he arrived with Busi and now Alba also they instantly are the team to beat, any team want to beat Messi but it also means more pressure and more expected from his Inter Miami teammates because Messi is demanding a higher level a higher standard of play.
Another genius world record in hat of Messi
Magical Messi 🎉
I thought Messi had his worst performance, but he delivered when needed as almost always. I say almost because his UCL knockouts last 7 years have been 🤢🤮
@ESPNFC : It is so disrespecting when you say he didn't much till he scored a goal, what do you expect from a footballer? In complete 90 minutes ,divided into 22 players, you barely get the ball for a moment and that's when one has to showcase their talents.
inter miami’s defenders need more on strategy and training
When you win penalty shootouts, it gives you confidence and makes you play well.
Miami will play with the confidence that even if they go to penalty shootouts, they don't care that much. It decrease pressure and they can play better
David Beckham is spot on that’s the biggest compliment anyone can give to Messi and this inter Miami team. They are playing at a complete 360 level and Messi is just the definition of perfection.
Yedkin is a very good player, inter have devastating outside backs
We only have 2 more years of messi so we need to enjoy the much we can
That 'siu' celebration didn't age well hahahaha
Typical "Greek" behavior.
