Barca defender, Gerard Pique, spoke on Barca's good start this season and Messi and his chances for breaking Muller's record and Ballon d'Or.

“Iniesta has won the European Championship this year and could win it. Cristiano Ronaldo has had a great season, but Leo has stolen my heart. I think he’s the big favourite”

Great start

“This good start gives us plenty of peace of mind ahead of what’s we still have to come. We are in a great position, and if we can carry on like this, we have a lot to win”.

“There is a lot of season left and we are experienced enough to know that we have to keep our feet on the ground. In Guardiola’s first year we had a similar lead, but ended up having to go to the Bernabéu to win the league”

On Messi record

“To break a record like that, you have to play well and also have the little bit of luck that we’ve been having. You have to take things a game at a time and that way the records break themselves”

"It’s one of those things that get you excited, because it’s such an old record. But we shouldn’t be focusing on that, because that will actually make it harder for him to score. Messi has to relax”

“Benfica have a very attack-minded team, with players like Aimar and Cardozo. They’re very skilful and will be coming here to win”

“If you play with a smile, you play better” he claims. “Just like ‘Magic’ Johnson at the Lakers”.
