What Messi does is at times superhuman: Henry
March 27th, 2010 - 6:52 pm ICT by ANI
London, Mar 27(ANI): Barcelona striker Thierry Henry reckons that his fellow team-mate Lionel Messi is one of the best football players in the world, and said that he cannot believe that the Argentine is human.
Messi has scored back-to-back hat-tricks to take Barcelona level on points with arch rivals Real Madrid at the top of Spain’s La Liga.
“I have played alongside some great players, but Leo is very special. What Leo can do is difficult to find in any other player. The other day I had my head in my hands because I did not know how he does such things,” The Mirror quoted Henry, as saying.
“I received a load of messages all asking me if Leo is human. At times I ask myself that. What he does is not normal. We just have to enjoy it all,” he added.
The 22-year-old has now scored 34 goals in 39 appearances this season. (ANI)
