The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604’s superstar, and has set his sights on emulating the Argentine international
Moura hasn’t played a single game for his new side, Paris Saint-Germain, but has high ambitions for the future. While talking to reporters, the 20-year-old stated that he wants to become one of the best in the business and has set his sights on reaching
the same level as that of Argentine’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Moura-c26908 believes that his playing style is very much similar to that of Lionel Messi. The Brazilian said that both he and the Barcelona forward likes to take the ball and attack immediately. There are not many footballers in the world who play like this,
and the 20-year-old feels that his style has already helped him a lot in his career.
"In my opinion, my style is comparable to that of Messi, we take the ball and go on the attack immediately.”
Comparing himself to Messi, the attacking midfielder said that such players receive a lot of fouls because of the way they play. Dribbling is not easy and opposing defenders do not like it, which is why he and Messi receives a lot of fouls, but said that
they do not go to ground over little fouls and they prefer to stay on their feet.
"We take a lot of fouls, but we keep standing. Messi dribbles directly towards the goal, he does not fall, and he plays on.”
Praising Messi’s sportsmanship, Moura said that unlike many modern day footballers, the Barcelona forward does not go to the ground very easily.
“When you commit a foul on him, he does not roll about on the floor."
The 20-year-old added that there are many reasons why he likes Messi so much and he idolises him to large extent. Furthermore, Moura wants to become one of the best in the business and is eying many titles with Paris Saint-Germain in the future.
"That's why I like him so much and because I see myself in him. He's an example to me, he is my other idol."
