Could Messi miss out on Pelé’s club goals record?

With 643, Pele holds the record for most official goals scored for one club,Leo is at 634 now, 10 goals away from setting a new record.

Frankly, it looks like almost every footballing record will belong to Leo by the time he retires. And when you put it like that, you understand how lucky we all are to witness him play week in and week out.

Although the Argentine has said several times in the past that he doesn't care about personal achievements, the amount of goals he has scored over the past 15 seasons with Blaugrana is staggering.

You should keep in mind that this includes only goals in official games. A big chunk of Pele's career goals came in friendlies.

He will surely break this record in this season.

Lenglet is not a world class defender and commits lots of error he should be immediately replaced by Araujo coz atleast he does have pace to outclass and pacey forward and he trackback easily, Pique should be replaced by Eric Garcia in the coming January hope Barca sign him . Improper substitution- why on earth De Jong never get substituted ...
