Messi dribble not so special – Madrid Legend

Real Madrid legend Guti has scoffed at Lionel Messi’s superb play in Barcelona’s win over Espanyol.

Messi produced a wonderful individual play which has been lauded across Spain.

“It’s a great move, nothing more,” he said on the show ‘El Chiringuito de Jugones’ on Mega. “I think the goalkeeper could do better, the shot is easy to save and he gifts a goal to [Luis] Suarez.”

Guti continued by reeling off players who could do the same: “Neymar, Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale… even Modric could do it.”
