I would’ve loved to see him in the Premier League, but it’ll really be something to see him in MLS. He’s ‘only’ 35, still has a couple of seasons left in the tank. He’ll be a monster for Miami.

      Yeah I saw they went from 1m followers on Instagram to 5m once he was announced, lol. I imagine he’ll retire when he’s finished, yeah. Seems like if he wanted to go somewhere for money it would’ve been Saudia Arabia. Although, maybe he’ll go back to Barca. I think I read he wanted to do that but couldn’t because of FFP.

    Skipped the big Saudi bucks. The MLS will become a lot more popular thanks to him.

    Didn’t see this happening at all. I thought he’d go to Saudi Arabia for crazy money or go back to Barcelona.
