Honest indeeed. He feels he is the best there ever was, so thats what he says. Not arrogant - just honest. Messi is the greatest, imo thats undisputable.

It's all about timing buddy.

[@freyoleitfus]

He went to MLS by 35/36 after breaking his knee ligaments. In his first game he entered as a sub and scored twice, and one of them was scored by almost the midfield. He had hunger as if he was in Europe and then he came back to Milan, which last game was a 0/5 against Atalanta. In one and a half year he made them winning a league while being almost 40. Nobody is like Zlatan because he had talent and mentality. In most of the cases, CR7 excluded, you only excel in one of them, not in both. Long life to God Zlatan.

Not a soccer fan but this dude is truly something special. Much respect 🙏

[@damirasceric4857]

The best interview ever! Many people can relate to his situation worldwide. His road to success has been tough, but he has managed to stay in some way modest and toatally understands the situation of small and simple man....familis that struggle on daily basis.. . Great man!!

[@pedromacd]

Modest. A word spoken in the same sentence as Zlatan at no time ever 🤣

[@kamulokongo1355]

[@junaidamin3756]

The best interview I have ever seen. Zlatan is being very honest, pure and straight forward as always. Very inspirational views

[@semigeniusreally8988]

No bs, no false modesty, no empty ego, only the straight, unvarnished truth I LOVE this guy,, simply because he knows who he is and loves himself honestly (which is way different from honestly loving himself).

[@SapIlov]

Ibrahimovic is super intelligent , speaks his mind with that bold confidence & the game will miss him bid time.❤

[@DostoevskyGrandson]

I'm from Balkan (Croatia) and my mother also hit me with a stick when I was a kid, I always tought it was completely normal. He said it right it's different mentality. I had 4 brothers and sister and it was the same thing. We were wild and it was her way to discipline us. You can see the difference when someone wants to hurt a child, this is different.

[@davidlovas7498]

It could have been useful to me as a child too.

[@semmirs6920]

Exactly. I am Bosnian, and my mother would beat me for things I would do (steal fruit from my neighbor, get into a fight with my peers, run away to play football when I had homework to complete, get a low grade in school, etc). Now, I am 33 years old, and I thank her for that. 😊

Let that be a lesson to you for the rest of your life. You have prejudged him up until this interview

[@israelojeagbase1591]

Zlatan's response to the discipline question was great. Expertly threw Morgan's attempt to judge his mum's approach back. He appreciates the conditions and the necessity for such an approach. He appreciates the effect of such experience on his successes. He also appreciates the fact that not everyone would accept such disciplinary approach.

[@luthandotyler8714]

wat a player learned so much from this interview... self love, honesty, integrity and self confidence

[@edint9816]

for the rest of the world he may look like egoist, but we in Balkan, especially in Bosnia understand him completely. What Zlatan went through growing up, most Bosnian boys did also, because that is just how we are. What a legend! Too bad he couldn't represent Bosnia on national level, because of our corrupt system even in national team. GO ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIĆ!

[@matthewmatthew9485]

Im sure he could have represented country of birth if truly wanted it. Nothing about corruption. Maybe he felt duty it was necessary to represent the country that gave him safety and home.

​@@boterman1Better? The only reason Sweden ever amounted to the little it was was because of a Balkan boy called Zlatan. 😂

[@pistolpetetc]

​@@matthewmatthew9485Nah actually, Bosnia wanted to make him do trials. He said the same thing as with Arsenal - Zlatan doesn't do trials. Unfortunately some of the managers further insulted him by saying to Zlatan's father - "we have players like your son in abundance." What fools they were. Anyway, the former Yugoslavia was Zlatan's first choice.

[@RajRaj-le5bx]

Such a confident guy with a hard past....it's an inspiration for every individual who are having hard time.... proud of you brother ❤

[@7beatzstudio]

You can feel the balkan spirit coming from him, especially the family part as we all from ex Yugoslavia can relate. He is such a nice guy. Confidence is like a muscle. You practice it, you work for it. He damn well worked on it and is aware of his qualities. Bravo Zlatane!!! Amazing

[@semmirs6920]

Just want I wanted to say. I am a Bosnian and can relate to the things he would say about his father. It's the Balkan/ex-Yugoslav mentality.

[@buzzerbeaterbuzzerbeater9001]

And my mother worked for years together with Zlatans Croatian Mum in South Germany , there were even friends... Then she moved to Sweden, meet his father there and the rest is history

[@carlmack2188]

Zlatan is a breath of fresh air. Thanks Piers for a great interview.

[@basedinme9828]

This is the greatest interview i've seen. He is the real man! So honest, confident "the legend"👑

[@dimitrijesvilarkovic2542]

Nothing but a massive respect for Ibrahimovic. The way he talks about his beginnings and how he toughened is pure inspiration. Also a very honest and straightforward human beign, with right attitude towards life. By the way, putting his personality aside, as a footballer he did unbeliavable things and was definitelly one of the best strikers over the last decade or two. Big man Ibra!

[@edinelandoure]

I loved that line from Piers. “ You’re everything I hoped you will be “ at 1:45:03

No other person in the world can say these things and not come across cocky. No, words are grateful to be spoken by Zlatan. 🙇🏽‍♀️

[@SheidaRad]

I've always admired Zlatan's attitude and mindset. I love his self-confidence and his belief in himself, which has always been backed up by very high standards of hard work. He absolutely deserves to retire at a high with utmost dignity. As a football passionate and podcaster, it's my dream to interview him one day in my show. ❤️ Zlatan if you're reading this, know that you have a crazy Iranian fan living in Italy!

Zlatan Ibrahimovič once said 1. "Lions don't compare themselves with humans" 2. "I don't follow football Football is following me 3." I came as a king and left as a legend" 4. "If i had to choose between Lingard OR Jones, I will happily choose OR" 5. "My career didn't need coaches to be successful instead coaches need me to make their careers to succeed and their dreams come true" 6. Journalist : How do you feel after scoring that goal? Zlatan : Ask the goal how it felt to be scored by me 7. "I don't control the ball but the ball control itself for me" 8. "When I look myself in the mirror there's no reflection of myself because there can't be two Zlatan" 9. Reporter : Zlatan you consider yourself as a Lion while Messi and Ronaldo are humans but they have many Ballon'dors but you don't have it why? Zlatan : I don't care about individual trophies , if I wanted them I would've played golf 10. "When he was leaving his home he told his father that " you're now the man of the house" 11. "If you invite me to your house , you're my guest " 12. "I use my two legs to play football but i use my whole body to score a goal" 13. "When Zlatan is late for training , players get punished for being early"
