Well, this one went the way you thought it would. A depleted Atlanta United side traveled to Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale and were crushed by Lionel Messi and Inter Miami by a 4-0 scoreline.
Let us know what you think of the players’ performances on Saturday night. Give us your player ratings for the match using the form below or this link. Here’s the ratings scale:
- 10 – world-class performance
- 9 – elite performance
- 6 – average
- 5 – slightly below average
- 3 – well below average
- 1 – poor in every level

I mainly listen on radio, so I don’t usually fill these out. But I’m curious how people rate this game. You’ve got such a rotated roster and people playing out of position. Do you rate players on a curve (so to speak) or give most everyone low marks?
I didn’t watch enough to feel comfortable rating anyone (full transparency, I was visiting family with the only TV in the house being in the room where everyone gathers, and started losing my cool on the first Miami goal and figured I would save everyone from me being a sourpuss and just turned it off). But I would imagine the ratings that matter here are for the “kids” (ie, the let’s see what we’ve got in the pre-pre-season player pool), and you rate them honestly. These are the guys that we need to consider whether they will take a starting spot from any of the guys who somehow survive the off-season.
Give everyone low marks, easy.
We cant complain about where we are in the table and then give our kids a bunch of 6s.
Edit: nor is our position in the table given any sort of grace due to “circumstances”.
