The Dutch legend believes that Lionel Messi is one of the best players in the world and also praised his Barcelona team-mates, who he thinks have been helping him become what he is today.
Lionel Messi has a lot of football fans, and recently the Dutch legend, Johan Cruyff, spoke about the Argentinean skipper and explained how he is a class apart.
The Barcelona number 10 has already won the FIFA Ballon d’Or award three times in a row and this time he will be competing in it in an attempt to win it for the fourth time.
In case he wins the prestigious individual honour, he will become the first player in the history of the sport to grace this award this many times in succession.
Lionel Messi managed to score more than 70 goals last season, something which no other player has managed to do in the history of the game.
Therefore, there are many who believe that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296 might be the best player ever to step into footballing world.
Johan Cruyff was recently comparing his dream team with the current Barcelona side and he gave a special mention to Lionel Messi, who he believes is doing each and everything right in his career.
However, Cruyff also said that one of the basic reasons why Lionel Messi is a class above the others is because of his team-mates, Xavi Hernandez, Andres Iniesta and Cesc Fabregas, who he believes are helping Messi reach the top.
Cruyff also added that there is a huge difference between Messi’s performance when he is playing for Argentina and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 as the Catalan team can support him in order to score more goals.
The former Barcelona man also mentioned that Messi is from another league and another planet and believes that there is no other player like him.
“Lionel Messi is the star, of course. But he plays so well because he has Xavi Hernandez, Andres Iniesta and Cesc Fabregas to help. Just look at the difference when he plays with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Argentina-c2841, where there is less support. But Messi plays in another league,
he's from another planet.”
