FC Barcelona — Best pictures!

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 Mali international Seydou Keita is going into the next game of the current African Nations Cup campaign against Algeria with a plank of just 0.12 rating points to beat in the FTBL system; he should reasonably be expected to boost his tally

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.
