There is no defence that can stop Messi. It is impossible.
Tom Finney would have been great in any team, in any match and in any age, even if he had been wearing an overcoat.
I consider Zidane to be an amazing player who has written football history.
I am a big admirer of Paul Scholes, he is one of the best players of his generation.
Footballing qualities can be developed, but Stoichkov is a player with character and inborn talent. I've seen him produce fantastic plays even from impossible situations... I couldn't believe it, when I heard that I used to be his idol.
The footballer I've admired most in the last ten years is Zinedine Zidane... one of those rare individuals who had the skill but also incredible vision.
Dybala only lacks the belief that he is a great footballer. After his great experience at Palermo he had a great start with Juve and he did beautiful things.
Cristiano is one of the best players of all-time - there's no doubt about it.
Congratulations to Thierry Henry on a truly wonderful career. One of the great footballers of our time and a top bloke. Bonne chance.
I don't recognize myself in the players I see today. There's only one who excites me, and that is Thierry Henry. He's not just a great footballer, he's a showman, an entertainer.
In top form, Messi is the best footballer I have ever seen - period.
Messi is the best. I have not seen or will ever see a player like Lionel Messi.
