| | Basile: Ronaldo is good, but Messi is from Mars30.07.2012 |
The legendary Argentinian coach Alfio Basile does not save praising Lionel Messi, and declared him for a player from another dimension.
68-year-old explained that Cristiano Ronaldo is really a great player, but it makes no sense to compete with Lionel Messi, because he was from another planet.
"Nobody can compare with Messi. Cristiano Ronaldo is great but just a man. Messi is from Mars. He can run incredibly fast with ball at his feet, and even faster without it, "said Basile to Radio 9.
"It's like playing a different sport. It is almost impossible to do the things that he does to that speed. He continued to become better, "added the coach.
Basile yet didn't dared to give a categorical answer to whether Messi is better than it was Pele and Maradona. "Pele was monster, he had a fantastic physique. Maradona was a genius and of the smallest space. Diego was the leader, while Pele rather individualist, "said Basile, without interfering with the name of Lionel Messi.
