"Such a thing happens once in a lifetime." Guardiola on Messi

Pep Guardiola expressed his admiration for Lionel Messi.

"To get the most out of such a football player, you must first know him. We are talking about the strongest football player of all time. Maybe I'm disrespecting Maradona, Pele. I understand. But that's how the stars came together. I have seen Messi's consistency in training and every three days in games for 15 years. And I've never seen anything like it again. And I followed it every day.

We were lucky to see him; something like this happens once in a lifetime, like with Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan," said Manchester City's head coach.
