As sharp as ever: "I'm in much better shape than in previous years. I had injuries in 2013 and 2014 that meant I wasn't at the top of my game, whereas now I am. I feel I'm back at the level I was at three or four seasons ago".
Neymar, his heir: "Neymar will win the Ballon d'Or one day because he has all the tools to do so. He's a top-class player and he'll go as far as he wants to. He's fast, technically gifted and has the skill to take on people one-on-one".
Cristiano Ronaldo: "We're rivals, but we've always respected one another and shared mutual admiration. He deserved the last two Ballons d'Or he won".Barça or Argentina, Messi's only two retirement options:
"I'd never play for another European club. Barcelona is my home and I want to retire here. However, it's possible I could end my career in Argentina. Anything could happen in the future, but I want to stay here".
Individual prizes are not his priority: "If another Ballon d'Or comes along then great, but if I don't win any more, it's no big deal. I'm not obsessed with that trophy. On the contrary, my obsession is with titles won as a team".
