Former Spanish international Vicente Ngonga was interviewed by Marca and talked about Pedri, Yamal and Rodri.

Talking about Pedri

Vicente Ngongga: "Pedri is the best football player I have ever seen in a long time. He is Iniesta, but better and better. In his time, Iniesta was incredible. But now I look at Pedri, I see the shadow of Iniesta, and there are even more. As far as he performs today, I do think Pedri is stronger than Iniesta."

Talking about Yamal

Vicente Ngong Gar: "Yamar is very special. He can reach any height he wants to reach. If he is clear-headed, he will become a world-class star, not because of social media, but because of football itself. Of course, the premise is that he is clear-headed. After all, I have seen many very good players and it seems to be stronger... But in the end, you will say, 'Damn man, it's hard to believe you didn't play 200 times for the national team and won 7 Golden Globes'."

Vicente Ngongga: "He's also a very good guy, such people are a minority group. If you've watched those very, very good strikers, they often have the most talent and are not fully developed. People like Xavi, Modric or Iniesta don't make headlines as often as goal scorers, but at the end of the day, they're the players with more magic. It's not that we midfielders are smarter, it's like you're a parent and you have to constantly teach your kids how to do things . ”

"Rodri is my favorite player in the national team, and he is also the most similar player to my style. At first, everyone wanted to turn him into another Busquets. There was only one Busquets, but I thought he was not Busquets, but he could do what Busquets did, and even two other things. The progress he has made so far and his weight in the national team is amazing. Now he will go forward and shoot two shots, and he has become a completely different person... He has grown a lot."
