Yes, he talked about his ability on the field being comparable to Barcelona's Maestro.
Yes, the genius Messi was compared to him, a baby who hasn't even achieved anything in his career comes to talk about the man who won almost everything in his football career.
Sometimes people don't know what they're talking about and they open their mouths to say shit when a newbie comes and talks about the big boss of the conglomerate, it's disgusting.
Did you watch the newspapers? (Sofia)
No, why? (Wilian)
After what you said in the interview, everyone sees you mentioning that you are comparing yourself with the best of the current era and considered one of the 10 best football players of all time. (Sofia)
Should I be worried? (Wilian)
Only if you played badly, if you played well they couldn't refute it. (Sofia)
I understand, I'm going to massacre you in the next game. (Wilian)
The game will be against Napoli, I hope you are ready. (Sofia)
Wish me luck. (Wilian)
Sofia grabbed Wilian's face and kissed him, their lips met for about 20 seconds when she let go.
I don't think you need luck as much as you think, good luck anyway. (Sofia)

Sir, was what you did today some kind of response? (News reporter)
Response? For whom? (Usman)
In the last game you ended up insulting one of the best players today without having any achievements, today was your response to your divergences? (News reporter)
No, today was not my answer, my answer will be in 4 years when we go to the world cup. (Usman)
I understand, so how do you feel about participating for the 2nd time in one of the biggest goals scored by your club in a match against your opposing team, the last time was against Bologna, this time against Napoli. (News reporter)
Happy to have made more history in this fantastic team that I'm playing with. (Usman)
Mr Usman, you became the player who scored the most goals in the Italian championship for Cagliari, do you have anything to say or mention? (News reporter)
Well something?
Yes I have.
What? (News reporter)
This was the 25th game of the championship, there are still 13 games to be played and I have a total of 23 goals in 23 games, which means I have an average of 1 goal per game in this season's championship, I can only think and talk about one factor that would be. (Usman)
More to come, hope I break Luca Toni's record with 31 goals in the championship. (Usman)
The reporters, the players, the fans, the commentators, the journalists, people who watched and heard these words thought "will he really break the record set by Luca Toni, will he become the youngest player to break a record for goals from artillery in a European championship and people don't even remember who was last.
Anyway, after going through all the praise and it was time to rest, Usman didn't realize at that moment, but his skills were improving qualitatively, his balance had reached the yellow level at 80 of 99, his dribbling accuracy was close to reaching the green being at 74 out of 99 in addition to these attributes what improved in him is his ability as a natural attacker the jump and header that were at the green level increased from 76 to 77 and from 77 to 78 successively Usman was becoming an increasingly terrifying player at the age of 19.
