The former assistant to Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United, Renee Mulensteen compared the talents of Jesse Lingard from the Red Devils with the Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi.
Interestingly, a few days ago, the specialist compared Lingard to the Catalan giant Andres Iniesta.
`People say that Jesse is small because of the way that the Premier League is perceived as a whole.`, wrote Mulensteen on the official website of Manchester United.
`But look at players such as Iniesta, Xavi, Messi, David Villa and Juan Mata. They are slim, but that doesn`t matter if you have a quick wit, quick feet and a big heart. Jesse is a football player who owns it all. He is a bright talent and has great qualities and skills.`
`I always tell him to watch as many videos of Iniesta, because Jesse is the English version of Andres. There is still a long way to go, but he is exactly this kind of player.`, added Renee.
