Cremaschi recently spoke about Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba's mentality. All three have been serial winners during their careers and Cremaschi said that the trio have brought in the same mindset to Inter Miami. He said (via AS USA):

“Yes, obviously I grew up watching Messi play. Also Busquets and Jordi Alba. Now being able to share the field with them is crazy impressive. I am really looking forward to learning from them and growing as a player.”

Inter Miami are already close to winning their first trophy since Lionel Messi joined the club. Their form has improved drastically since the summer signings have joined as the club have won all of their last five matches.
