Pichichis

What can we say? Most of us ran out of superlatives several months ago as far as Messi is concerned, but even he surpassed himself this week! The four goals he scored against Arsenal on Tuesday left hard men drooling (Graham Souness included), and on Saturday night he racked up his fortieth of the season to lead his side to a club record fourth win in a row against the eternal enemy Real Madrid. Later in the game Pedro drilled home the second in the Bernabeu to keep Barça on track for a second league title in succession. Other than that though, only Llorente of our top strikers added to his tally in a relatively low scoring weekend. (12.04.10)
