#2 Lionel Messi (Barcelona)

Answer this question. Does Lionel Messi even surprise you anymore? The eagle-eyed Argentinian might have turned 32, but he still hasn't lost his Midas touch.

The Barcelona skipper has scored 19 goals in as many games in the LaLiga. He has racked an xG value of 12.19 and exceeded it by an impressive margin of 6.10 points.
Well, if he had only scored the 12 goals that were expected of him, would you dare call him the superhuman he is today?
As of now, winning the Champions League remains a top priority for Messi. He has failed to guide Barcelona past the quarterfinals for the past three seasons, a feat he will be keen to avoid this season.
