[@raybl9295]

Fred Adu, anyone? Seriously MCFC is calling this kid the next Messi? If there is anything that could weight a talent down, it would be this. The crazy amount of hype from the US is just insane. Why can't they just let this boy grow into his game mentally, physically and in soccer skills and intelligence.. If anyone had watched a real Messi growing into his game, it would be Guardiola and you can bet your bottom dollar that he wouldn't be calling an American 14year old a future Messi.

You cannot call anyone Lionel, Messi. It’s so ridiculous that you can compare anybody. Messi is the greatest in this generation. He’s not just the greatest in the world but off the generation. There’s a big difference. If you don’t know anything about football dump post things like this.

They should never place a label like this on a kid. Its not fair to him. Messi is very good, the GOAT but he also was very lucky not to get injured most of his career. Its very hard to repeat a career like his when there are many factors this kid will not be in control of. No one knows if he will be the next Messi, even if he has the talent and skills to be compared to him at a young age. It takes lots of luck to have a 30 year career like Messi. This kid can get injured and never come close to accomplishing what Messi has. They should never place any labels on kids this young.

[@bagtea]

eh stop naming kids next Messi lmao. But he is good tho. Has generational talent potential, depends on how his associates handle his career. Man city, Ajax, Benfica, all these academies would be perfect for his development

[@gordondunkeld6237]

I hope the best for him but it's crazy to label him this way at this age. Maybe he becomes what they suggest but the odds are against him and the pressure will mount. Lift him up as a prospect but comparing him to Messi is kind of crazy. Some say Messi is the GOAT and while I would argue that, an American kid will only achieve a level even close if he is super hungry and willing to run through a brick wall to achieve greatness and most privileged Americans don't have that kind of hunger. It's why Brazilians and others from S America succeed. Again, I hope he proves me wrong and makes it in Europe. Will be a big fan if he does.
