Comparisons Quote by Frenkie de Jong

“I try not to pay attention to talk of comparisons. I only want to focus on myself. It is good to hear that people are talking like that, but the truth is I am not at Cruyff's level of talent, and I never will be, so it is not something I think about.” quote by Frenkie de Jong
