Messi has a divine gift.
Messi is the great player of this generation, like there were great players in other generations.
I've seen the player who will inherit my place in Argentinian football and his name is Messi... He's a leader and is offering classes in beautiful football.
Missing the 1978 World Cup made Maradona an even better player, as he showed on the following year at the Youth World Cup, and he never looked back.
I never expected that I would be somebody. I just started playing and when I was 12, 13, thought: 'Wow, I'm playing good.' Then Dinamo Zagreb were speaking about signing me, I thought: 'Hmm, maybe I can achieve something.'
People should know that I am Dybala, and I want to continue to be so. I understand the comparisons and expectations on me from the Argentines, but I don't want to be the new Messi or the Messi of the future.
Thierry Henry is a fantastic professional and will be massive here in New York, i'm sure, he is world class
Balotelli I have known since I gave him his debut at 17.
You might have read some stuff about me sometime in the last few years. Like when I was 15: Davies becomes second-youngest player to play in MLS. Or when I was 17: Davies makes record-breaking transfer to Bayern Munich. I guess it must have looked like I was always going to make it. But that's not how it was. Or at least that's not how it felt.
The myth about me as a footballer has grown: I am now the lost Maradona of Norway.
I had the chance to play with Alan Shearer to join the list of class players I'd played with at a young age at Leeds - the Vidukas, Smiths, Kewells, and Woodgates.
I don't think I'll see the next Messi in my lifetime.
Isco is a genius. He is a natural and a huge talent.
Ndamukong started out playing soccer, like his sister before him. She excelled at it, played for Mississippi State, made the Cameroon national team.
With Ronaldo being one of the greats, probably one of the best players ever, it's going to be an honour to hopefully play against him.
There would be no debate about who was the best footballer the world had ever seen - me or Pele. Everyone would say me.
