The playmaker has been quite unstoppable, combining his killer instincts and incredible artistry on the ball to torment opposition teams in the Spanish top flight - bulldozing his way through opposition defenders and making goalkeepers look totally helpless with his unparalleled finishing skills.
By virtue of his amazing 15 goals in 15 appearances in the LaLiga so far, Messi has proved to be miles ahead of any goalscorer in the Spanish top flight and with the Argentine in such an incredible form, it would take something miraculous to stop him from claiming the Pichichi trophy once again this term.
