10 - Lionel Messi - v4

[te amo barca]

Not whoscored to blame, they just use opta's data and integrate the numbers in their system. Messi has got the same statistics on sofascore, for instance.

They also said Messi had 0 key passes during the 1st half.

key passes are the ones that lead to a shot.

Total misnomer that gets lots of people confused. Key passes aren't all that interesting as stats while "breakthrough" passes are the real deal.

He runs a lot nowadays, so selling option will be eliminated

Did Messi give Suarez a piece of chocolate or something?

Remember some days ago when i told that he should be more selfish in some occasions? That first goal is cleary what i mean.

If he'd took all the Penaldos we had in those 92 games and scored 90% of them he'd be on 100+.

It's exactly that scenario as well. He's running towards the box at pace. If he goes himself he'll either get a good shot on target, a free kick on the edge of the box or a Penaldo.

Too often he'll pass instead. If it was Neymar to his left instead of Munir he'd have passed to him.

What is Messi current trajectory of goals this year? I think he is actually projected to break that 91 goal record.

Shame Cech won't play the return leg.

Projected yes, probably no.

With the Copa this summer, he has plenty of games to do it. Probably no b/c there's Neymar and Suarez, but he could get 70-80 goals at this rate if he stays healthy.
