Chelsea skipper John Terry admits that he has had the privilege to play against the greatest player ever.
As the Blues get set for their two-legged Champions League semi-final against Barcelona, the England centre-half has heaped praise on Argentine ace Lionel Messi, revealing that he is a favourite in the Terry household.
"It's a pleasure because when you finish and look back - and the guy's still going to be going strong - you've tested yourself against the best.
"And, quite clearly for me, he's the best ever. He's a great individual, a great person as well and a credit to the sport.
"For me, he's got everything. He is magical.""My kids love him," said Terry.
