FundamentAli wrote:He has become Barcelona's all time leading goal scorer before age 25. As of yesterday he has 235 goals for club. He has also pledged to stay with Barca for the rest of his career. How many more will he score? How long will he play? Who is the player who has scored most goal for club? I guess he will break that record in a years time. We will wait to see another man scoring five in a champions league match. His ability to loop the ball over the goalie is the big difference

Quote:Lionel Messi needs one goal to equal the Barcelona scoring record after César Rodríguez's total was revised to 232 from 235, the La Liga club said.
Barça's Documentation and Studies Centre and La Vanguardia newspaper conducted a joint study to verify the number of official goals scored by Rodríguez in the 1950s. The study showed he had scored three fewer than previously thought, Barça said in a statement on their website.
Messi, the World Player of the Year, who has 51 goals in all competitions this season, could overhaul the record when Barcelona host Granada in La Liga on Tuesday night. The 24-year-old is in his eighth season with the club.
"After studying all of César's matches, it has been confirmed that Messi is only one goal behind," Barcelona said. "It's worth noting that César Rodríguez is the club's all-time top goalscorer in official matches, but the absolute record belongs to Paulino Alcántara, who scored 369 goals in 357 official and friendly matches."
Just to compare with Pele whose record for club is - Years:1956–1974 Club: Santos Appearances:800 Goals:659
So, as far as most goals for a club goes unless he scores 424 goals next year i don't think he will break that record in a year
