Messi scored 34 goals and 13 assists in 32 games, and making the difference with numerous late goals. He is averaging a goal every 73.1 min, it would be the second most effective full campaign of his career.

Ajax invests above €10 million in its academy every year, and has been the "the Harvard of football education, for many decades. And thanks to some canny transfer, some wise older heads and that steadily rolling academy conveyor belt, we at least have a dog in the fight again

Messi has missed more PK's than any other La Liga player this season in all comps. Does a high soccer IQ have anything to do with missing around 25% of your PK's? Scored 0 goals in 5 finals and missed big from the spot in 2016 Copa América. From Wrongen = low SQ to ALL. Be civil

It is the most popular and exciting sport in the world – due to its simplicity. For purists like me it is a disaster. The natural flow and emotion in the game has been killed due to lengthy stoppages. Players don’t know if to celebrate a goal or not. That is the death of football
