Lionel Messi compared the differences to Barcelona now under Luis Enrique to Pep Guardiola's tenure.

“In reality, the system of Barcelona is something that everyone knows,” said Messi. “I can say we are one of the few clubs that have it, but each boss has different things and applies them as he sees fit.

“We have not noticed massive changes but, yes, some — in that with Luis maybe now we are a bit more aggressive when we attack at speed, whilst with Pep we used counter-attacks less.”

Messi now enjoys playing with Luis Suarez and Neymar as part of Barcelona's attacking trio, two players that weren't with Barcelona during Guardiola's tenure.
