Choosing to go and play in the USA and in that team that occupied the last position in the league table in the USA, in my opinion it was the worst choice that Messi made, if his intention was not to retire due to football, then yes it was a serious mistake to have been on that team. This is because without playing against good players, next year he will start to drop in performance, as a result he will not be able to have much shine in the Argentine main team. and looking at the argentina team, they have a lot of good players, but they don't have any replacement for messi, probably on the day that messi stops playing, and the day that ronaldo stops playing, then the world of football will miss them so much
It's unbelievable that the years have passed and no players are appearing with the same brilliance and talent that Messi and Ronaldo have. It seems that perhaps only in the coming decades will we be able to see other players with the same talent, before these players came Maradona and Pele. Of course, there are many other players with talent, but they don't reach the same level of talent and popularity that Messi and Ronaldo managed to achieve. unfortunately they are in the last years of their career. In another 2 to 4 years they will stop playing football, this means that in the next World Cup, I'm talking about the one in 2026 due to their age, it will be the last for both of them, that is if they also manage to have the physique to be in the 2026 World Cup.
@Slow death at his age it made sense because he wanted to play in a league where he could get regular match fitness and keep himself ready for international games but I didn’t think that he would actually be keen to play in the 2026 World Cup. Furthermore the era of Messi and Ronaldo is over in context of European football and now it’s time for Halland and Mbappe because these two will be dominating football for a very long time now.
