Already it does long that Leo Messi is the most important legend of the FC Barcelona, and can that also the best player of the history. However, until this season still remained him for beating some registers in CanBarça , like the fact to turn into the footballer with more official parties contested with the Barcelona T-shirt. Well, already it is to 18 parties to surpass to Xavi Hernández in this statistics.
Against the Huesca added his meeting number 750 with the elastic culé, and the number 500 in LaLiga. In addition to being to 18 parties to surpass to Xavi in parties with the Barça, is to so only six appointments to beat him in commitments contested in the domestic championship. Once it have achieved it, the '10' will have converted already in the footballer with more parties, more goals, more victories, more assistances and more titles in the Barça.

It will have it very complicated Messi to equalise or surpass this statistics of 'Zubi', since it would have to play in the Barça until 2024 and, to day of today, does not know at least if it will continue the season that comes dressing of Barcelona. It was as it was, if it does not produce any setback in shape of injury, what is clear is that Leo Messi goes way to convert this same course in the player with more parties in the history of the Barça.
In the case to do the cases, would be without place to doubts the best way to put an end to a full career of successes in the group of the Catalan capital. Although if it can be conquering besides titles like LaLiga Santander or the Champions League, again, better that better. Win some title would be the only form, surely, to convince to the '10' that it follow more years in the Barça.
