10 - Lionel Messi - v3

[barcanuck]

Hope he is involved in a 1000 goals by the time it's all set and done!

With 331 goals and 119 assists, Messi has been directly involved in 450 goals in 398 games for Barcelona [via @barcastat]

That is ridiculous. Fricking ridiculous. Unbelievable. And remember, with Barca's style of play, often it's the player with the third last touch (secondary assist) who made the key dribble or pass as well. Think of the amount of those he's had as well- a lot of his secondary assists have been the key moment, having him 'directly involved' in even more than the stats show.

Simply incredible.

Realistically, if we used the hockey system of assists where they credit 2 assists a primary and secondary assist to each goal. I bet Messi would have been involved in a goal/assist each half.

He should be close to 1000 goals when he retires

That video makes me very very angry. The ugly opponents kicks him and try to injure him in every single way. And he is still standing. What a player. Most certainly the best player we have ever seen.

Most noble, humble and likeable player as well. He barely complaints despite the hundreds of rash challenges he's received.

With that pair of shoes, or in 2014?

I guess both

Impressive either way

Most Liga goals against Levante: Messi 9 - Forlan 8 - Van Nistelrooy 7 - Cayetano Re 7 - C.Ronaldo 6 - Eto'o 6 - Luis Fabiano 6 [via efe]

Hatrick incoming

Most Barcelona goals this season: Messi 18 - Pedro 15 - Neymar 11 - Alexis 11 - Cesc 11 [via @barcastat]

 

[te amo barca]

Good to have 5 players with double digits

That's a really balanced looking attack
