One shouldn’t write Leo off early.
Versatility
We all know Messi is not just about scoring goals. Last season was when he established himself as the team’s greatest playmaker – he became the second player in history to record 20+ goals and 20+ assists in a single season in Europe’s top 5 leagues.
Unfortunately, goals are what’s most appreciated in football, so this stat is unlikely to be taken into account.
Attacking impact
Stats show Leo Messi was level above any other La Liga player in as many as 8 attacking categories – without a doubt, these numbers also rank him very high in Europe.
Champions League superiority
Neutral fans might say that Messi was decent last season but he’s been awful in the second half of 2020. This is wrong – his (or his partners’) finishing may have been poor but he can’t stop creating chances for himself and his teammates – these 3 major Champions League stats prove it.
