Records to beat - Leo Messi

MMKa said:

255 or 258 RONALDO Cristiano? Or is that list only for goals in same league.

7 seasons shouldn't be too difficult, as he will have about 317 at the start of the next season. "Only" 40+ to score. But 8 is difficult.

Yes, it is only a list of goals in one single league.

- Barcelona; 344 goals in 412 games by Lionel Messi [2004-]

Any updates here, or will Messi be 3rd after El Clasico hat-trick?

I see what I did here.

(The answer is no. He is not 3rd but the list is not complete.)

Looks like 5, 6 and 7 season record is going bust, maybe even 4 season record if Messi would score a couple of hat-tricks. Very close between Messi and Ronaldo on the 5 season record, I assume both will pass the current record.

Thanks mate

358!!!

So now that the 7 season record is in the bag, let's hope he can build i nice cushion so that he can have a shot at the 8 season record next season

2010 for ronaldo and 2014 for messi was a disaster( According to their peak statistics )

So what do u think of the next year?

I guess if Barca countinues this form, then Messi can reach a new personal La Liga goal and assist record!

Thanks MMKa for updates

And Ronaldo reached to Pele's 313 Goals in 6 season

Top goalscorers in the big 5 leagues (single league only).

No he won't ever hit 50 again. He plays deeper now and less focus is on him to get the goals as he has neymar and suarez.

----

This is Messi's 19th season, CR 21th.

Most official goals scored in one club

646 Pele Santos
564 Gerd Muller Bayern Munich
534 Josef Bican Slavia Prague
525 Fernando Peyroteo Sporting
522 Jimmy McGrory Celtic
507 Lionel Messi Barcelona
485 Uwe Seeler Hamburg
473 Eusebio Benfica
469 Franz Binder Rapid Vienna

So he has 43 goals now with 11-14 matches remaining of the season. If he scores 10 more he will take down 8, 9 and 10 consecutive seasons, that is insane Although the most ridiculous record is the 8 season record by Pele, averaging almost 53 goals per season and Messi only need another 6 goals to beat it.

Soon he will smash through the 500 goals barrier and then only Muller and Pele are ahead.

Can Messi score another 150 goals with Barcelona to equal Pele's 646 with Santos?

I hope so, 30 Goals per season for 5 years? Whay not ...

It's crazy how at the beginning of this thread it seemed doubtful that Messi would break 500 goals for Barça. And yet here we are, with Messi just 4 goals away.
