Barcelona, Piquè: "Messi or Maradona? Messi for his consistency"

Ahead of the Champions League match with Napoli, Barcelona's Gerard Piquè spoke about the encounter to Sky Sport. There are many storylines to look forward to in the important match between the two clubs, and the defender spoke about some of the situation regarding the tie: "It's a special event to play in a stadium that has this history and tradition, it's the first time I'm playing here. It will be a difficult match, we want to win and advance and move a step ahead. Since Quique Setien arrived he brough in his addies, we are trying to create chances with possession and we've started getting results. A lot of things about Napoli worry me, they're not having their best season but lately they have had some good results and they can create many different problems. We have to be very concentrated on getting a good result. Messi and I haven't spoken of the emotion of playing at [Diego Maradona's] San Paolo. Would he go to Napoli at the end of his career? In football you can never say for sure, but I think it'd be difficult. But you have to ask him, in my opinion I hope he stays at Barcelona. Is he better than Maradona? Very hard question, Diego is an unique player in the history of the sport but in my expereince, given his consistency, Messi over him."
