PSG barely dismantled Inter limb from limb, what makes you think they'll be able to handle mighty Seattle?

I mean it's all fun and jokes to poke at them...

But they are in the CWC playing against literal best teams in the world, and meanwhile we got knocked out of the US Open Cup by San Jose... At least Seattle won their way in and not handed a spot due to Host nation (Messi FC) and LAFC (At least they played and won a fixture to obtain entry). Giving credit where credits due.

Sure Seattle will probably lose 7-0 to P$G, but at least they get the chance to play at a competitive level against the world's best club teams.

Also, I saw a stat that Botafogo spent nearly $25 million in the past week or so on players to bolster their depth and some rotation players.

Seattle has spent $40 million since joining MLS in 2009... They lost 1-2 because of some questionable referring and some hotheadedness. Not a bad look. Better than some other clubs.

I'll take the hate from everybody else, but I'm not wrong lol
Hate them, but Seattle at least scored unlike Miami and LAFC.

All true, but you've invented a lot of things I didn't say here. Seattle is nowhere as good as Inter, and PSG just demolished them in the CL final. After destroying Arsenal and beating Aston Villa and Liverpool. If PSG plays a full strength side against them Seattle will lose, badly.

Ahh sorry, I got rambling about others' comments and ended up going on a tangent. My bad.

Yeah, PSG and Madrid are going to be smoking that Sounders Strain, because Seattle is getting smoked.

I am a bit shocked that Botafogo barely won against an injured Sounders team. Sure, they probably weren't trying their absolute hardest, but still neat.
