The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 manager commends that the Swede is an extraordinary player but insists that Lionel Messi has no equal in the history of football.
Barcelona boss, Pep Guardiola, has hailed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zlatan-Ibrahimovic-c38029, commending the player’s extraordinary goal-scoring ability.
The Swede spent a year under Guardiola at Camp Nou before moving to AC Milan after falling out with the manager.
The in-form striker has been receiving a lot of commendations of late. Massimiliano Allegri has regarded Ibra as one of the top three players in the world, ranking the Swede in the same league as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629.
The Barcelona manager was of equal praise for the talented star, comparing him with Lionel Messi.
While talking to the press, Pep Guardiola said:
“Ibra and Messi are two extraordinary players. I know Ibrahimovic well, but not very well because I only had him for one season. He always does something fantastic in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926.”
Both stars are in top form, with Ibrahimovic recently scoring a hat-trick against Palermo, and the Argentine netting five goals in his side’s 7-1 thumping of Bayer Leverkusen in the UEFA Champion’s League.
However, the former AS http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 player went on to admit that there is no player in the world better than Messi.
“He's the best ever, there is no other like him. The numbers speak for themselves. We'll never see a player like him again.”
The Catalonian has an unbelievable scoring record, having netted 228 goals in 311 games for the Camp Nou outfit.
The Spaniard insisted that it is an honour to have coached a talent such as Messi, and the five-goal haul is just another special night in the legend’s extraordinary career. He admitted that to have a player like Messi makes his
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 so much easier as a manager.
"The only credit I can take is that I always put him in the team and we just try to make sure he gets the ball. After that our task is done.”
Lionel Messi has won the Ballon d'Or for the past three seasons.
