What is there to say about Lionel Messi? The diminutive Argentinian is heavy favourite to win the 2015 Ballon d'Or, the result of an incredibly impressive treble-winning season for Barcelona. In the Champions League, Messi finished joint-top goalscorer (with 10) and top of the assist table, a testament to not only his legendary eye for goal, but his sense of teamwork as well. Although the Messi vs. Ronaldo debate rages on - and will probably continue to rage long after the retirement of both men - it's undeniable that Barcelona man has recently found himself at the forefront of a far more effective system. Combining with Neymar and Suarez, Messi has become the leader of the most prolific attacking trio in the history of La Liga. The strike force scored a scarcely believable 122 goals in all competitions last season. Of course, Messi remains the de facto leader, contributing 58 of those. Who knows what he can achieve in 2016...?
