The move came as a big blow to Barca fans. I don't know what they are expecting from a 35 years old man... To still carry them on his shoulders? Nah... Not possible, they should look somewhere else. I'm glad he didn't make the mistake because it would have been a dumb choice.
Going to Barcelona would have not been a dumb move. Messi has nothing to prove anymore, so him going to Barcelona would have been the same thing as going to Inter Miami, only difference is the American team offered a better contract.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying going to Inter Miami is a bad move, I'm only saying a move to Barcelona would not have been a bad move too.
I'm happy for him for Messi as a fan, but its going to be a hard pill to swallow that the era of Messi and Ronaldo has truly come to an end. We knew this day would come but we never thought it would be like this.
