Messi is the best. I have not seen or will ever see a player like Lionel Messi.

Fernando Torres

Lionel Messi is very much the team player, while Cristiano is very ego-driven.

Jurgen Klinsmann

Player I would like to sign for Internazionale? It's easy, the strongest in Europe at the moment is Lionel Messi, so I would say him. Messi has amazing qualities, he is the best of all, number one. That is unquestiionable.

Luis Figo

Lionel Messi is the best player ever.

Graeme Souness

Lionel Messi is the most amazing player I have ever seen.

Harry Redknapp

Ronaldo could play for Millwall, QPR, Doncaster Rovers or anyone and he'd score a hat-trick. I'm not sure Messi could do it. Ronaldo's got two feet, he's quick, he's good in the air and he's brave, though Messi's brave too of course. I just think Messi is a Barcelona player.

Alex Ferguson

Cristiano is unlucky to be playing in the same era as Messi. Ronaldo is a very good player, but Messi is even better.

Henrik Larsson

I am also amazed with Messi, what he is doing is very good. He contributes alot of very good things for the team. He is an individualist, but he always plays for the team.He covers well at the back, is organized and finishes well with both feet. He is mischievous, and is a very intelligent player. He applies pressure just where the pressure is needed.

Alfredo Di Stefano

You couldn't put a value on him, he's on another planet. For me, Lionel Messi is undoubtedly the No.1 player in the world.

Harry Redknapp

Critics have always questioned whether players like Pele from the 50s could play today. Lionel Messi could play in the 1950s and the present day, as could Di Stefano, Pele, Maradona, Cruyff because they are all great players. Lionel Messi without question fits into that category.

Alex Ferguson

Lionel Messi is very difficult to contain.

Manuel Pellegrini

I think playing against [Lionel Messi] is pretty difficult. Playing by the side of the best of the world is always good. Things get easier. And if I have to win, may it be by Messi's side. It would be great.

Neymar

I think that the best player in the world should be quiet, humble, and friendly. Lionel Messi is all of these things, while Cristiano often lacks some of these qualities.

Dani Alves

It's going to be a pleasure to coach Cristiano Ronaldo. Certainly, he's one of the top players in the world next to Lionel Messi, and I'm looking forward to the privilege of coaching such a fantastic player.

Massimiliano Allegri

For me, Lionel Messi is quite clearly the best player ever. It’s a pleasure to put myself against him and when I finish my career it’s something I can look back on and know I’ve tested myself against the very best.

John Terry

Everyone says Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi, but I would have love to have played with Luka Modric. I think he's an incredible player, really strong mentally and a pure footballer.
