There's a little-known football player in La Liga called Lionel Messi.
Currently plying his trade as a forward at champions Barcelona, a club he's been at since he was scoring world class goals as a teenager , he's the complete package.He's VERY good; five-time Ballon d'Or winner, most goals ever scored in La Liga history, a La Liga season, a calendar year, a single season, a Champions League match good.
Apologies if you were already aware of him, but we just wanted to make sure everyone is up to speed...
Well, there's no sign of him slowing down - and we've uncovered yet another stat which illustrates how Lionel Messi has been twice as good as ANYONE playing in Europe so far in 2016.
Out of Europe's big five leagues (England, Spain, Germany, Italy and France), Messi has created at least 15 more clear-cut chances than any other player this calendar year.
And if you're wondering what "clear-cut" constitutes, it means a one-on-one or any other similar chance where you would expect a goal to be scored.
