3 reasons why Lionel Messi could power Barcelona to the treble this season

#1 Barcelona's current position in all competitions

The Catalans maintain a decent position in all competitions and are well poised for the treble this term

Winning the treble is undoubtedly one of the most difficult things to do for even the strongest clubs in European football. However, considering Barcelona's position right now, it might not be too difficult a task for the Blaugrana.

The Catalans are leading the LaLiga table by a whopping 10 points clear of Atletico Madrid who occupy the second position, and there are just 10 games left in the Spanish top flight. And after making it into the final of the Copa Del Rey recently, Valvarde's men also qualified for the quarterfinals of the Champions League where they face Manchester United next.

Considering Barca's progress across all competitions at this stage, it is evident that they are in with a shot to sweep all the three trophies. If Messi maintains his incredible form throughout the remaining games of the campaign, leading Barcelona to the treble will not be such a far-fetched thought.
