"Messi? For me he's like any other player," he said.
"We study him like we would study a player from Celta Vigo or Levante. There is no difference.
"It was the case during my first season with Atletico Madrid, especially when you play Camp Nou for the first time, with all these stars.
"At that moment, if you don't think about it, it is because something is wrong with you."
