Rather weird, yes. And the people saying it are Xaviniesta fanboys or Barca fanboys. Difference?

So you have counted results without nonfootballing nations? I have, and I have to disagree with you. Ballon d'Or 2010: - Messi 22,65% Iniesta 17,36% Xavi 16,48% (Everyone voting) - Messi 22,02% Iniesta 18,10% Xavi 18,85% (Fifa ranking top 100 voting) - Messi 25,28% Xavi 19,73% Sneijder 16,82%...

Earlier it was yearly award, now it is seasonal. Messi got it 2009, 2010-11 and 2011-12. (This is message number 22697 of 22886, but the last message. Weird.)

Wrong, he asked it in both. No cookies, sorry. Difference #2: defender is much closer, not too close however.

i took the stats from whoscored.com. 1/1, 1/2, 5/5 failed crosses, longballs and throughballs. These made pass percent look bad, otherwise rather good passing. In the other matches those passes succeeded, so overall rate was better.

3/7 shots on goal denied by Tono, 5 dribbles, 5 (unsuccesful) throughballs, worst passing accuracy 75 % after Valdes. Could be better, but still, one assist to the goal that finally secured win (he did not trust his team mates anymore, so he assisted Gomez...) Worst game this season, still top5...

5 in UCL 13 in La Liga (round 17 in 22 Dec) 2+2 in Copa del Rey (2 round of 16 games in December) =22

Barcelona + Argentina has 22+2 games still this year, and Messi will play at least in 20 of them (will be rested some games). Messi has played 47 games so far. Say, he will continue scoring 1,2 goals per game (12goals / 10 games this season). So, with 67...71 games, will be 87...92 goals.

Different criteria for assists, then. These numbers are according to FIFA World Cup 1990 criteria. And, as jiopi often says, wider criteria gives better view on involvement on goals.

Messi: 61+21@46 (Bar: 52+20@37; Arg: 9+1@6) Cronaldo: 44+9@49 (RMa: 39+7@38; Por: 5+2@11) 39+13@25 LaLiga, 8+3@6 UCL, 3+4@7 CdR, 2+0@2 SSc; 7+0@3 Int, 2+1@2 WC-q 28+6@26 LaLiga, 7+1@6 UCL, 2+0@4 CdR, 2+0@2 SSc; 1+1@4 Int, 1+1@2 WC-q, 3+0@5 Euro

No, this ends all debates: http://www.castrolfootball.com/rankings/rankings/ :)

The wall is not at arc of the segment but about halfway. So 18 + 4/2 + 10 yards = ~ 30 yards = 27...28 m.

^ jiopi: 4 CDR? Yes, you are right. I didn't have round 16 there yet.

Argentina 9+1 in 5 A-internationals (2+1 in 2 qualifiers | 7+0 in 3 friendlies). Barcelona 50+20 in 39 official matches (37+13 in 24 La Liga | 3+4 in 7 Copa del Rey | 8+3 in 6 UCL | 2+0 in 2 supercopa) That is 59 + 21 in 44. 25 matches left, would be 92+33 in 69 with same goals per game ratio...

It's a bit contradictory. The author says: 1st opinion, goals. Messi has more goals because Cronaldo is winger and his main duty is to pass and assist goals not make them. You cannot compare. 2nd opinion, assists. Messi has more assists because he passes more. You cannot compare. Cronaldo is...

Not trolling, just wanting to verify. I searched "Messi Hunter sms" etc and did not find single page about it. And now I got Barca - Making of the Greatest Team in the World, browsed it a bit and didn't find the story. Your turn, please tell us your source: in which page of the book the story...

Lol.com has an article saying the SMS case is from 'The Messi Mystery' book by Sebastian Fest and Alex Juillard. I have not read Hunter's Barca but I doubt the story is there.
