Messi Has A Unique Speed Of Thought – Pique

Barcelona legend, Gerard Pique has come out to weigh in on the greatest of all time debate. He recently spoke on his ex-team-mates, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, he would describe Ronaldo as the best footballer on the earth, but Messi is simply out of this world because he belongs to another planet.

Pique added that he saw Messi do very amazing things in training with his unique speed of thought.

His words, “It was always different. Cristiano was the best of humans, Leo does not belong to this planet. I saw him train every day doing amazing things, there will be no other with his speed of thought. He arrived at the age of thirteen and played in the same way both in the academy and with the first team.”

WOW.
