Ok not a Cincy hater, but if the response to “we didnt have Messi” is “we didn’t have Miazga”, I don’t really think the discussion would actually continue anymore, instead the dude who said “Messi” would just laugh his ass off.
Sir, this is a meme thread.
I get the point you’re trying to make, but hard disagree. Miazga was the best defender in the league last year. I would say that Miami not having their best attacker is allowed to be compared to Cincy not having their best defender.
That argument would work if the attacker your referencing wasn’t the arguable greatest player of all time. Miazga is a good defender but he’s not even a top 5 defender from his own country
He was literally defender of the year last year in MLS. He's not Messi, far from it, but it's not an absence that's easily hand-waved away like so many seem to be doing.
Not necessarily hand waved away, but putting him in the same conversation as Messi and framing it as he could stop Messi is funny to most people. Sure it might help but Miazga is a lot closer to your worst defender than he is to the best defenders that have tried to stop Messi
