“When you play with Messi” – Scoring Goals Alongside Lionel Messi, Inter Miami ‘Breakout Star’ Gets Candid About the Improvements in Team After Argentine’s Arrival

Last year saw Inter Miami sign a talented attacker by the name of Robert Taylor from Norwegian club SK Brann. Little did the David Beckham-owned side know that this 28-year-old Finnish International would end up forming an important partnership with Lionel Messi next season and be among the breakout stars.

Robert Taylor has had an impressive start to the season for Inter Miami thanks to an improvement in attacking plays and returns. The attacking unit of the Herons look well-oiled ever since Messi joined the team and Taylor, in a recent podcast, credited the 7-time Ballon d’Or for this change.

Inter Miami star Robert Taylor recently made an appearance on “Offside With Taylor Twellman”. In the podcast, the Finnish International was asked to share his feelings on being called the ‘breakout star‘ of the team. The 28-year-old was also quipped about the improvements that Messi’s addition has made to the attacking play of the team. Safe to say, the attacking midfielder’s answers have mesmerized us all.

“I mean, I wouldn’t say I am a breakout star or anything,” said Taylor on being called among the best performers for the club. He then went into detail about La Pulga’s impact on his and his team’s attacking returns – “I honestly think we improved as a team because of the new signings so much that they bring the best out of everyone. I have side before; I have been an attacking player. When you play with Messi attacking, you are going to get chances; you just have to take them away. I happen to take some of my chances away, some of them not,” said Taylor.
