Fabio Capello heaped praise on Barcelona star Leo Messi after his performance against PSG this week.
The Blaugrana crashed out of Europe thanks to a 5-2 aggregate scoreline, but that didn’t stop the ex-England boss from praising the ability of the Argentinian.
“The Leo we saw against PSG is a phenomenon that was only stopped by Marquinhos and Keylor Navas,” he told Sky Italia.
“Nonetheless, he’s a unique footballer.
“He showed once again that he has something other players don’t and that he is an absolute genius.
“Other players may win the Ballon d’Or – like Cristiano Ronaldo – but Messi is a genius because of the things he does with such speed and quality that others can’t even compute.
“He uses his feet like others use their hands.
“Against PSG I saw a great Messi and a good Barcelona side.”
