The 20 Greatest Ray Hudson Quotes That Sum Up Lionel Messi

"In America, we give hurricanes a name. If they ever call one Lionel Messi, you'd better evacuate."

I often run out of superlatives to describe the genius of Leo Messi, but I can always rely on another great of the game to give me the inspiration needed to truly understand how good this bloke is at playing football.

Ray Hudson, a former Newcastle United midfielder in the 70's, is iconic for many things but perhaps most of all is his love for the little magician.

The beiN Sports commentator was certainly complimentary of Messi's performance in last season's El Clasico.

"Centipedes fantasise about having one left leg as good as his." and "Defenders try to follow him on Facebook and he comes out on Twitter, that's how evasive he is" are some of my personal favourites.

Time and time again, Hudson has produced iconic quote after iconic quote about the five-time Ballon d'Or winner.

The GOAT.
