I prefer that Argentina wins the World Cup. Messi deserves it for all he has done in football. He's my friend, I wish him the best

It is very simple, Messi is the best in the world, and if you give him a little bit of space, he can do whatever he wants.

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.

Life only makes sense when our highest ideal is to serve Christ!

I have never been concerned about winning the Ballon d'Or or being the best player in the world. The best player is already here and that's Messi. And now I can see him from close up and help him.

My greatest idol– I’'ve always told everyone – was Robinho as he was from Santos and I was always following him, so I'’m a great fan. Among others, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho Gaúcho, Kaká. Many of them.
