He has now scored 234 goals (previous record was 232) in 314 games for Barcelona in all competitions, with an impressive 94 assists.&nbsp;</div> <div style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;,sans-serif;"> <br /></div> <div style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;,sans-serif;"> For the 2012 La Liga campaign these are the latest numbers from these two goal scoring machines.

Messi is showing he gets a bigger percentage of his team goals and needs less shots at goal to get them. This week I have added Van Persie from Arsenal for sake of comparison with the World's top two. Although not having scored as many goals, he has the highest percentage of team goals and also a better shot to goal ratio than Ronaldo.&nbsp;</div> <div style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;,sans-serif;"> <br /></div> <div style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;,sans-serif;"> What was most impressive at the weekend was Ronaldo's finish, a cheeky backheel as he ran away from goal. <b style="font-weight: normal;">This gave Real Madrid a 1-0 over Rayo Vallecano and kept them 10 points clear of rivals Barcelona. Messi scored in a 2-1 victory, also showing a degree of genius. He took a quick free kick which arrowed to the top corner and the Atletico goalkeeper could only watch it sail past. Messi could have had two but he was pulled back and yellow carded for a hand ball on a typical jinky run..Maradona wouldn't have got caught!&nbsp;</b><br /> <b style="font-weight: normal;">&nbsp;</b> </div> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyjhNZlCbMeGvlHgFS-DSZF4AltKxOvfvjHR-e8qNsNOCc2BHPXhaVM210KGKRVF-Dq5labb4VtjFrE6uENT0cFMbVuz5urj7WB-es_rmPURGKfk_Fncmz7ZzpYJ0Kokz4u01-cAdi2xvC/s1600/Stats+26+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="255" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyjhNZlCbMeGvlHgFS-DSZF4AltKxOvfvjHR-e8qNsNOCc2BHPXhaVM210KGKRVF-Dq5labb4VtjFrE6uENT0cFMbVuz5urj7WB-es_rmPURGKfk_Fncmz7ZzpYJ0Kokz4u01-cAdi2xvC/s400/Stats+26+2.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;,sans-serif;">Van Persie of Arsenal added to give comparison</span></td></tr> </tbody></table> <br /> <br />Carlitos Tennishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08672203140309054002noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4966611009226403025.post-11505269918214036842012-02-19T16:09:00.002-08:002012-02-20T06:20:49.207-08:00<div style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;,sans-serif;"> Lionel Messi scored four goals this evening against Valencia at the Nou Camp in a 5-1 win.
