    Yeah, think he did. That was when we started to realise his godlike powers.

    Ronaldinho, Eto'o, Henry, Ibrahimovic and Villa weren't/aren't as prolific as Messi is. The lad must be doing something right.

    Agree. Being surrounded by great player doesn't make you any better than your natural ability level. I play six aside on a Thursday. The other five are pretty decent. I am ****. I am still **** when playing in the same team as five very good players. Not that they're Barca quality obviously, but you see my point.

    Well I suppose it's because in La Liga even the ****e teams will try to play decent football instead of lumping it and instead of putting 11 players behind the ball, even if it means being canon fodder for Barca and Real...

    My estimations of Messi have gone down. Got a hat trick in half an hour then didn't score for the last hour. He's obviously lost it. They should sell him now.

    Should just pay him for half an hour's work if he's going to take his foot off the pedal.

    They do have a good youth system, but they've also been busy buying up the best prospects from around the world when they hit their late teens...after all, if Barca wants you these days, would you want to play for anyone else?

    Though, I do think Villa would score more goals for them if it weren't for Messi banging so many in. He's the best in the world, no doubt, but its not exactly fair to compare the totals of his teammates to him when the offence goes through him the way that it does.
