Barcelona winger Lionel Messi has been an inspiration for Barcelona this year and after scoring in Wednesdays Spanish Cup final with Athletic de Bibao he entered into the top 3 of the players who have scored the most goals in one season for Barca.
The Argentinian now scored 37 goals in 48 games and could even add another few in the team’s remaining matches. The gap with the top two seems to be a bit too big however.
Brazilian forward Ronaldo tops the list with an impressive 47 goals scored in 49 games. This amount was achieved in the 1996-97 season.
Legend Mariano Martin needed only 31 games to score no less than 44 goals in the 1942-43 season, making him the most productive player per match.
Barcelona have another chance to make history this year if they can wrap up the title and win the Champions league as they have never won the treble of those and the Copa del Rey which they have already secured.
