Barcelona star, Lionel Messi has warned that he does not want to be
compared to Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo, or anyone else.
According to ESPN, Messi, who is the world’s best player having picked
up the 2015 Ballon d’Or ahead of Ronaldo and his Barcelona teammate
Neymar, is not keen to get involved in the debate over who is the best,
and has insisted that he prefers to focus on his own game.
“The press looks to compare among other things. All I want is to help
my team to grow each season,”
“I don’t compare myself to Cristiano nor to anyone. I only try to think
of me, of my team-mates and win games.”
Messi will take on Ronaldo head-to-head in El Clasico next week and the
forward claims that trying to win La Liga is always difficult for
Barcelona when Real Madrid are around.
“They [Real Madrid] have great players,” he added. “They have always
had impressive stars and it’s one of the best teams in the world.
“They are always a complicated rival and against them, we always find it
difficult to beat them in the Spanish league. There is a lot of competition
and we try to do it better.”
