Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman insists he's been happy managing Lionel Messi this season.
Koeman has dismissed predecessor Quique Setien's claims that Lionel Messi can be a problem in the Barcelona dressing room.
"For me, Leo is a very good player - the best in the world," Koeman said during Tuesday's pre-match press conference.
"Each day, I see his ambition and winning mentality. I don't have any difficulties getting along with him.
"For me, he's the captain. I talk to him each week about things on the pitch and in the dressing room. I don't agree with that, but I respect Setien. If he thinks like that, it'll be like that for him."
