Before the Christmas 05 break, Lionel Messi of FC Barca had squad number 30. Since the January 06 resumption he has number 19. Do you know why, please?
Messi was promoted to the first team squad, and therefore had to change his number to anything between 1 and 25. The numbering system is heavily controlled by the league, and for example goalkeepers have to wear 1, 13 or 25. B team players wear 26 upwards, and as Messi was officially in Barça B at the start of the season, he had to wear 30.
i want to ask if messi will be the
best player after 2 or 3 years or not and if etoo can win the pichichi's player

The answer is probably yes to both (Messi may take a little longer), but we have to wait and see.
