Football fans just love projecting how Lionel Messi would have fared in England had he ever joined a Premier League club.

The Argentinian maestro has a stellar record against the likes of Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal and Tottenham. In the last season, he also broke his longstanding curse against Chelsea and now has 3 goals in 10 games against the Blues. However, amongst the top 6, he is yet to punish Liverpool with his goals.

Messi has faced Liverpool twice in the Champions League when the two sides met in the last 16 round of the competition in 2007. In spite of playing for 180 minutes in 2 games, the diminutive no.10 failed to rescue the Catalans as he was successfully kept at bay by the Liverpool defenders.

Lionel Messi has faced Liverpool in pre-season friendlies, but the Kop have safely avoided him in the Champions League for the last 11 years.
