Sometimes I don’t think people grasp how impressive the Beckham deal is. My newsletter subscribes for a breakdown a few weeks ago. Subscribe here: www.thelongplay.beehiiv.com

Business and sports the dream video your channel is so entertaining

[@roboticvenom1935]

Fantastic video man for a small channel. Only a matter of time before one catches wind in the algorithm. But what may turn some viewers off is the poor audio and camera quality. I see you have a clip on mic which should sound great but as we can hear it's very poor- worse than a phone no doubt. I'd recommend trying to fix that and maybe you should film with your phone(in pro mode) because whatever camera youre using reminds me of a webcam. This will help a lot!

I’m here for all the feedback. I recorded this a few weeks ago and since then I’ve made some… upgrades ha. In a few videos time you’ll see the difference. Thank you so much for checking out the content

Subbed... more of this..

That Grealish deal is bonkers. Well negotiated at the time. If he became a free agent today his stock wouldn’t be as high

[@moussadabo6405]

The only thing I disagree with is the value going up of Inter Miami… you’re never gonna get a player like Messi to come to Inter again. The value of the team will always be greater than the investment but I don’t see Inter Miami being worth over 2-3 billion

[@oscarmccoy9102]

True but the football market is growing a lot in the USA and Miami is an amazing area to gain a lot of fans. Probably won’t be 3 billion but it could get there.

[@rom3332]

The thing is there no other player like Messi, but they surely can bring big names in the future

[@TheLongPlayUK]

In the short-term maybe not. But this is a Long Play (😁). Remember the World Cup is in the US next cycle. As the sport grows in popularity, the media rights will increase and the value of the franchises will continue to build. Where they go? Remains to be seen but everything is in line for valuation to continue to push higher

[@MrMeMyselfandI]

@@TheLongPlayUK I did forget about the US World Cup, not to mention the 2026 Olympics also. Also I looked at sports franchise valuations and realised how successful IM had been in such a short space of time. So fair enough. My only caveat will be I think the media will never let the MLS break into the big 3 of sports leagues (NBA, MLB, NFL), because of the strong hold Nike has on the market. Adidas sponsorship of the MLS have be holding it back (just like how the Adidas have just lost the German national kit - also to do with money but you get my point) P.s.. pun game STRONG. Also maybe do a vid on Nike taking over from Adidas as German kit sponsor
