Saw him score a hatrick at the Nou camp against Valencia, never seen a set of fans absolutely idolise a player like that

Saw him a few times, for Barca and for Argentina at River stadium. He was rubbish in that one though.
Has he actually played for Miami yet?

You obviously never saw Phil Stamp play. Shame.

I don’t think he makes his debut until September

Inter Miami's next competitive march is the 21st of August, I would guess he'll play then.
He'll have had over a month at the club by the point, and presumably will be back up to fitness.

Saw him live at the Nou Camp in which he scored in 2-0 win.
Incredible footballer and I'm just glad I got to witness the GOAT live.
Normally, you can never say never, but I genuinely think we'll never see anyone as good as him ever again.
He's made football look ridiculously easy, for so long.
His records are just beyond a joke and it'll be a sad day when he does eventually retire (for the final time!)

He was introduced to the Miami community this evening lots of media and fans out to see him (naturally). Miami play their next two games in the cup this coming Tuesday and few days later so it’ll be interesting to see if he makes a peekaboo appearance then.

16000 fans turned up just to see him.
(Not sure if that's their capacity?).

Lucky enough to see play, just once in el classico at Camp Nou in 2012.
Scored twice including a superb free kick in a 2-2 draw, you can guess who scored both Madrid goals.
Catalonia was pushing for independence again at the time so the atmosphere was electric, 98000 there!
Still think Ronaldo was better though, scored with both feet and head regularly.

But yet not as regularly as Messi? Despite playing further forward and not laying on anywhere near as many goals for team mates.....
Scored more headers though I suppose if that's truly the deciding factor. Each to their own.
(But seriously it's not even close.)

To be fair I also based it on the fact I saw Ronaldo play about 15 times for Man Utd, twice for Madrid and once for Portugal.
Tbf to him he had a bit of pace once he got going but unfortunately it also took him an age to slow down as well.

He makes his debut this Friday (July 21st) against Mexican outfit Cruz Azul.

He's completed football, I'm so glad I got to see him live on a few occasions. He plays the game like no other & I think it'll be hard for someone else to come close to his level. I hope he enjoys himself in sunny Miami. Busquets has just joined as well & it looks as though Alba & Iniesta may be joining them too.
