See e.g.: My kid is short, ergo he should be like Messi. God I hate soccer parents.

Messi was blessed to grow up in poverty. He would have been passed over by most of the ACC had he been born here
His Everest was a tiny anthill in the backyard he flooded with turpentine at age eight.
Playing on dirt and concrete= immaculate touch and control at speed. If he grew up here, he would have been bladed from behind 50 times by a couple of syracuse CBs, and ended up wtih broken legs.
He would have played youth on a classic team at Charlotte United then received a partial scholarship to play at Catawba. By junior year his grades would have forced him to drop out. Today he’d be at Home Depot
no way could he even go to college --he's on the spectrum and wouldn't survive. If he was here, he would have been sent to El Salvador
We talk about Messi all the time--the greatest soccer player in history and probably in the top 2 of all time greatest team sports players
I don’t know what I’m going to do when he’s done playing. No other human has brought me that much joy
Yamal is the only one playing that might be able give me some interest. Everyone else is Stoke CIty 1992
Same. Sucks. I’m going to cut out of work to watch the arsenal real game but my interest is lowwwwwww in the sport today. I have a good buddy at inter Miami. He said the oldest Messi boy isn’t very good. Just decent.
I have the Arsenal game ready to go in the backgroud--Madrid switched to a 4-3-3 from that dopey 4-4-2 and they are going to go balls to the walls. I think we score one on the counter, but there are times I wish 2005 Wegner was coaching and would try and keep the ball and not change how you play.
By then, you'll be so consumed by your minion's game and development, you won't even care.
Just wait for his first U8 game. You'll get more wrapped up in that than any other sporting event in your entire life and he is going to bring you more joy (and anxiety) than all other players you've ever followed.
