Thegoalmac can reveal that Luis Enrique labelled Lionel Messi the best player he has ever seen after watching him score twice in Barcelona's 2-0 win over Ajax and equal Raul's record 71-game haul of Champions League goals.
Its his opinion, so I have to respect it, but for you do you think Messi is the best ever? For me, he can be but not yet. Continue for what Enrique said.
"Messi is without doubt the best player I've seen as a player and a coach," he said.
"I'm happy for the side in general. There were parts of the game we
could improve, but in general we had a marvellous attitude, and I'm
happy.
"We have to improve and for this I have a spectacular side. We
started the season knowing there would be all sorts of moments. I liked
everything in general."
Luis Suarez made his Champions League debut for Barca against his
former employers in the Dutch capital and almost opened his account with
a second-half one-on-one.
The Uruguayan, having recently made his return from a four-month ban
for biting, paid tribute to Messi while Xavi also added his satisfaction
at making it into the last 16.
"It's an honour to line up next to Messi - from my point of view
Messi is the best player in the world and you cannot compare him to
anyone," Suarez added.
"In fact, I enjoy playing with all these great players. I have been
training with the team for a while now, even if I wasn't playing."
Xavi added: "I'm happy for Messi because he makes the difference for the team and for that he is the number one, the best.
"We've got an important three points for our confidence and we looked
better. We need to keep on winning. We needed to win and I think the
result was fair.
"Ajax are a difficult side to play against, they want the ball and it wasn't easy.
"It is a great win and it reaffirms the group's confidence. Here we
all work, we are all together and today it was shown that when we pull
together the side functions."
