Barcelona superstar and football king Lionel Messi has called the Champions League the “dessert “compared to La Liga and the Spanish Cup-but insists he wants all three courses with Barcelona this season.
'The Champions League is the dessert for everyone, but to get it you have to be good in the league and cup,' he told Movistar.
'You have to be good in the league to be well in the Champions League. We will not leave aside any competition.
“The Champions League is special but we will fight for the league and cup.'
It was a big win for Barcelona after three matches without a victory and Messi praised the overall display: 'We were aware that with the results we had brought, there were doubts.
'It's never easy to play as a visitor in the Champions League and less against a team like Tottenham.
'We did a great match. The first half was extraordinary and we are happy because everything went as we wanted.'
The Argentine-inspired Barcelona to a 4-2 victory over Tottenham in their Champions League group game at Wembley on Wednesday.
Two goals, exquisite passing and not a pair of gloves in sight.
The 31-year-old has scored 22 goals and delivered six assists in 28 games against England's finest - more than he has against clubs from any other country.
"He shows in every game why he is Messi. His average performance is this type of game," said Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino.
