“If you talk by results, it’s Madrid. If you talk by game, I personally like Guardiola’s City and I think that any team where Guardiola is is going to be special because of the way he is, the way he trains and because how he makes his teams play. For me, City is the best in terms of results, Madrid,” Messi told Infobae.
Messi also revealed that he has not yet seen the Qatar final again: “My memories are all here. I remember what I remember. There are many things that perhaps I am missing. But hey, for now I’ll stick with what I have without reviewing,” and he confided: “I didn’t see the last play of the Draw like most others. I didn’t suffer it like everyone else,” he said.
“Life goes on. I had to continue in Paris, I had to live here and continue trying to achieve things, win. Now we have another challenge with the national team, to be able to try to win another Copa América. But at the same time being world champion … For me it was like feeling fulfilled, I achieved everything,” he added.

“I think that Argentina is always the favorite, beyond the fact that we came from winning all that, previously, when it was not possible that we could achieve the objectives, Argentina was also always the favorite. When a championship starts, be it a world championship, Copa América or whatever Argentina is a candidate just like Brazil and even more so in this Copa América. But I think that today the South American teams are very strong. Uruguay is very good, Colombia, Ecuador. Afterwards it becomes very difficult to play all the games, but I think it will be a very close Copa América.

nal issues, Messi revealed that during his time in Barcelona he was the psychologist: “The truth is that I went when I was in Barcelona a long time ago. I had never tried it, I was very reluctant to all that. I didn’t like it. I am a person who I keep everything inside and I eat both the good and the bad. But when I went it was very good for me, I liked it a lot, it has helped me a lot.”
