Messi’s ceiling gets higher and higher. Leo gets better every day and the start of this season has been no exception. The striker has improved on all his records from other seasons.
Leo Messi has been the Barça reference in the first games of this new season In addition to witnessing and experiencing the celebration of two trophies, the 2 Super Cups, Messi has dramatically improved his scoring numbers with regard to the start of other seasons.
Outdoing himself
Only two years not scoring
Messi didn’t score a goal in the same period in seasons 2005/06 and 2007/08. In the other seasons we had to wait a short while for his goals.
In the 2006/07 season Messi scored just one goal, against Celta, in the first game of the season (Barça won 3-2). In 2008/09, Guardiola’s first in charge, Messi scored 3 in the first four games. One at the Camp Nou, a penalty against Racing (1-1), and two more at Sporting (Barça won 6-1).
A hat trick to start
At the end of the 2010/11 season, Messi had scored 53 goals in official competitions, a stat we should bear in mind towards the end of the current season, considering this spectacular start.
