Micael gets it from the manager
“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The month belongs to Lionel Messi
The award is a small thing with a heavy meaning: for four weeks nobody in this division did his job better. Inter Miami CF have the trophy on a shelf and the player in the side.

Too much change too quickly at Inter Miami CF
6 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

A place in the month's best eleven for Lionel Messi
Four or five weekends of consistency, judged against everybody in the division doing his job. Lionel Messi has come out of that comparison in the side, and Inter Miami CF have had the benefit of every one of those afternoons.

Nothing is announced when this happens and everybody knows. He is a bigger part of the plan at Inter Miami CF than he was a month ago, and the training ground worked that out before the team sheet said so.

The Rodrigo De Paul story refuses to die
It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Rodrigo De Paul signs something — a contract at Inter Miami CF or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

DeAndre Pulisic leaves for nothing
Contract settled, hands shaken, no fee changing hands. DeAndre Pulisic leaves Inter Miami CF the quiet way, and the wage bill breathes a little easier.
