FC Barcelona — Best pictures!

Barcelona star Xavi (left in first row) failed to clear the 200-point mark in the FTBL system despite the Catalans’ 4:0 win over Sevilla in the last round of games in La Liga; he fell 0.46 points short.

Argentine prodigy Lionel Messi proved once again too tough for the competition as he scored twice in Barcelona’s 4:0 crushing of No.6 Sevilla to further extend his lead in the FTBL absolute ranking.

Barcelona’s Sergio Busquets is currently the best youth midfielder in the world with an FTBL score of 121 points. He could further boost that score in the coming weekend when the Catalans host No.5 Sevilla.

Barcelona’s French international Thierry Henry was one of the top players in the FTBL world ranking with a tally that approached 200 points just in April of last year. Today the French star is experiencing a serious slump in form.

Lionel Messi (with the ball) scored 3 goals in Real Madrid’s 5:0 drubbing of Tenerife in La Liga last Sunday and was rewarded with a solid 48.85 rating points, the biggest gain of the week, in the FTBL system, continuing the rise he initiated last year.
