"I went in strong on Messi and Alves told me: 'Chill out Tarzan, they'll kick you out of the club"

By far the most entertaining story was about a training ground clash with Barca star Lionel Messi. Lozano recalled how he went in strongly on the Argentine in training one day, leading to fellow defender Dani Alves taking him to one side and saying: 'Chill out Tarzan, they'll kick you out of the club'.

The incident happened just as Messi was announcing himself to the world, with the club keen on micro-managing every detail of the player's life at that point and most importantly making sure that he avoided injury.

The move clearly worked as Messi went on to become one of the best players in world football.

Another interesting quote from the 32-year-old was when he stated that he feels Cristiano Ronaldo seems to be a 'better person' than Messi, though he was quick to admit that he doesn't know either player personally and that the pair are 'without doubt the best players in world, no debate'.

Finally, Armando said that he had fond memories of his time under Pep Guardiola, despite never really getting a first team chance at the Camp Nou: 'I spent a couple of pre-seasons with the first team but very few players make the breakthrough there,' he concluded.
