It's been a long time since Leo Messi made his debut on October 16, 2004 vs Espanyol. Who knew that Barcelona had one of the most important players in their history right before their eyes, if not the most important.
He changed the history of Barca and how? With him, titles began to come ... and purpose. Immediately it became clear that Argentina was made to write his name in a gold letter at the club.
Someone only needs to look at the numbers to realize what Messi brought to Barca. Since his first team debut, Catalan has surpassed their eternal rivals, Real Madrid.
'Los Blancos' in front of Barcelona in the standings for most of the goal time. The biggest gap in 1990-91, when Real Madrid had 139 goals in front of Barcelona.
But Messi arrived and changed everything. On the debut day, the gap between the club was 70 goals, with Madrid leading.
Barca currently leads as a top scorer of all time of Laliga with 6236, 16 goals in front of Madrid 6220.
In other words, since the debut of Messi's first team, Barca had been able to cancel the difference in goals 70 and went 16 goals in front of "Los Blancos". Great statement.
In 17 seasons with the first team, Messi has played 767 matches similar to Xavi Hernandez. He has scored 661 goals and gave 260 assists. Barca have made number 10 one of their pillars and Argentina has restored their beliefs by helping them follow Real Madrid in a battle for the club with the most goals in the historical La Liga.
