Leo Messi, the total footballer

Leo Messi has scored 3 goals and made 6 assists in five official games this season

At the Ciutat de València he was the third most active player with 99 interventions

We are seeing Leo Messi at his very best this season. He’s not only scoring goals, but he’s providing them too. Like Neymar, he’s scored three goals in five official matches, but Messi also provided the assists for six of the other nine goals.

Away to Levante he set up both Neymar and Sandro, while last Wednesday it was his free kick against APOEL that led to Piqué’s winning header. And before that he supplied the passes for both of Neymar’s goals against Bilbao, and in the previous game, against Villarreal, it was him who provided the ball for Sandro’s winner.
