Leo has completed more dribbles than any other player across Europe's top-5 leagues.
Lionel Messi is, without doubt, one of the most entertaining footballers of this generation. His superb ability to get football fans elated with incredible moves and magical touches is a great joy to watch.

The Argentine has proven himself to be the best dribbler on the planet this season. Not even Cristiano Ronaldo can compete with his dribbling stats.
The Barcelona playmaker has completed 34 dribbles in the UEFA Champions League while Cristiano Ronaldo has just 19 to his name. In La Liga, Lionel Messi has proved to be un-matchable with 157 dribbles, a record that is massively ahead of Ronaldo's 30.
It will be a very difficult and almost impossible task for the Portuguese to match his rival if you consider the way the Argentine has been improving in every game this season.
Moreover, the fact that we are heading towards the end of the campaign suggests that Leo's dribbling stats will remain untouchable.
