Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola is still in the limelight for leading the FC Barcelona to this season's UEFA Champions League title, with power striker Lionel Messi's winning goal securing the club's victory. Guardiola describes the 23-year-old as the "best player" he's seen and continues his statement by adding Messi is "probably the best" he will ever have the privilege of coaching.

Guardiola seemed extremely impressed with his team's performance, stating "You always want to win, but the way we have won is what I am most proud of" in a report posted in USA Today's website. He then cleared allegations regarding his resignation from the world-class club, saying he won't be leaving Barcelona in the near future. Guardiola's guidance and defense training seem effective this season, with 53 goals coming from Messi alone, including one on Saturday's match that sealed the team's win.

The recent UEFA Champions League title is Guardiola's tenth title with the team, which includes the same title in 2009. Aside from nabbing two European titles and one world title in his three years of handling the team, Guardiola makes sure he is always on the lookout for new talents that'll improve Barcelona's impressive line-up even more. Guardiola should be proud of his choices as his men continue to perform as world-class athletes day in and day out.

In the same report, Guardiola then describes this year's UEFA title match as a better game for Barcelona than 2009's same-opponent final. The game was sailing so smoothly that he allowed recent liver operation survivor Eric Abidal to get in the field just minutes before the game ended. Abidal lifted the giant trophy when the game ended with Messi's winning goal. Before coaching the team, Guardiola played for 17 years as a defensive midfielder for Barca.
