Liverpool midfielder Arthur says there's a common mentality shared by former teammates Lionel Messi, Neymar and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Arthur played with PSG pair Messi and Neymar at Barcelona, while he was with Al Nassr striker Ronaldo at parent club Juventus.

He told Goal: "All three have something in common. They have a winning mentality. Whether it's training, a friendly or a final, these three always go out to kill.

"Even if they play against their mother, they don't care. They have an amazing mentality. Neymar is skillful, he feints, he advances with the ball... Cristiano scores from anywhere because he has incredible ability... And Messi, well, Messi is an alien.

"I had the opportunity to play with each of these three. Each of them has its own characteristics, but I highlight their mentality."
