Zlatan Ibrahimovic is a fantastic footballer. While this season has been dominated by injury difficulties, the Manchester United striker has shown his phenomenal ability in England, France, Italy and Spain. With his undoubted skill, the Swede is also incredibly confident in himself, as he demonstrates again and again.
Now retired from international football, Zlatan sat down with Former Leeds United midfielder Olivier Dacourt for an interview with French broadcaster Canal+1. When asked about his relationship with the Swedish media, Ibrahimovic gave a typically blunt answer.

? @Ibra_official : "Peu importe... Je suis le meilleur !" ???

This is by no means the most boastful thing Ibrahimovic has ever said. Famously, he almost secured a move to Arsenal when he was at Malmo but refused to go on trial because "Zlatan, doesn't do auditions." He stuck the boot into John Carew when he claimed "what Carew does with a football, I can do with an orange."
Nevertheless, the man is wonderfully entertaining and a very talented striker. His image even spawned one of the greatest pieces of fiction of all time. Never change, Zlatan.
