The Barcelona captain has admitted he’s not having his best tournament, but Silva says there is no doubt he could still be the match-winner when the two teams clash.
“For me, Messi is the greatest player in history, the greatest player I’ve ever seen,” he said.
”Every time we face each other, whether in the national team or in the Champions League, it’s very difficult to face him,” he said.
”No matter how much you study, you will never understand the quality he has and the difference he can make.
