“There are millions of people who think that Messi, or any other player, is more important than the club and the coach. This player, like others around him, have lived for 14 years winning titles, winning everything.
“I have had enough experiences to make an accurate assessment of what this boy and the others are really like.
“Messi is the best of all time. There have been other great players who have been great but the consistency that this boy has had throughout the years, nobody has had that.”
