Alejandro Sabella claims Lionel Messi is currently enjoying the peak of his career, which can also be called ‘Messi’s age of football’.
The Argentine national coach expressed that Messi is without a doubt the most prolific player in the world and his excellence on the football pitch is unmatched by any other footballer in the modern game.
Sabella admitted that he was literally out of words when he attempted to describe the brilliance that the Barcelona starlet brings to the game. He explained a new adjective is needed to better depict the wonder that the 24-year-old is.
The 57-year-old went on appreciating the Barca number 10 and emphasized the role he has played in the success achieved by La Blaugrana in the last few seasons.
Sabella spoke particularly regarding Messi’s five-goal haul against Bayer Leverkusen, in the Champions League.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 hosted Leverkusen on Wednesday night, in the second leg of the pre-quarter final stage of the Champions League
Pep Guardiola’s men were more than impressive throughout the match and barely gave the German Bundersliga team a chance in the game. The Catalan giants secured a 7-1 victory over the visitors, with Lionel Messi being the man of the match after scoring 5
goals.
Having won the first leg with a score of 1-3, the current European Champions paved their way to the quarter-final stage with an aggregate of 10-2.
However, the most noticeable thing in both legs was the outstanding show put up by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296.
While speaking to Fox Sports, Sabella was quoted as saying:
"As well as playing a great team, Messi has so much ability that he doesn't even need a chance. For him, we must invent a new adjective. But what he's doing is unique. He doesn't seem to me to be comparable to any of the others."
"There was the era of [Alfredo] Di Stefano, the era of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pele-c40189 and the era of [Diego] Maradona. But now is Messi era. This is the reign of Messi. And I am pleased that I will now be able to say that I coached him."
Lionel Messi is expected to be back in action when La Blaugrana travel away from home to face http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Racing-c40298 Santander on Sunday.
