Trincao opened the scoring before Messi made it 2-0 before half time. Luis Rioja got a goal back for Alaves but Trincao and Messi both scored again before Junior Firpo got Barcelona's fifth.

It will be illegal by law to let Messi join this ManCity team. The Premier league will become true Farmer's League.

LIONEL MESSI Has now equalled Ronaldo for all time career open play goals - 573 he has achieved it in 145 lesser games played than Ronaldo . additional interesting stat: Messi has created a whooping 101 CHANCES this season...and somehow has only 6 assists 🙃

Winning against Alaves who are currently 16th in the league doesn’t mean we’re suddenly the best in the world. Beating PSG won’t be easy at all, far from it but a win like this one does help with the morale, it does give us a much needed confidence boost and players like Trincao getting two goals also helps, we need players like him off the bench. Also MESSI with a performance like that, how can you not feel even a little bit of comfort and hope? We’re heading to our biggest game of the season so far with a great result and a few rested players, for that I’m happy. - We put the Sevilla defeat behind with our 7th league win in a row. You did not disappoint tonight thank you FC Barcelona ❤️

Lionel Messi has now equalled C.Ronaldo’s number of career goals from open play (573). He’s achieved this in 145 fewer games. Just think about that, he could go 144 games without a single open play goal, and would still have a better ratio than Ronaldo currently has. 🐐

Ronaldo has dilevered better performance in the biggest stages of football not against alavez and eibar
messi has won uefa final against Cr7, messi has scored more goals in el clasico than Cr7, messi has been showing big perfomance in every big game (reaching World cup final) Cr7 has never gone past quarters, Finally messi can create chances for teamates like today final goal.Stop being a hater for not accepting reality Messi is Best and Complete player, He doesnt get into 18 yard box often but he scores a lot of goals

Ronaldo doesn't play a complete match like this. He only scores goals which is his major strength. When total football like passes, goals, dribbles are discussed, your Ronaldo doesn't come close even on the biggest of stages. If your talk of goals, no problem, but total performance, you got no argument here man.

messi joining city would change the whole aesthetic of the team messi isn't a poacher which is what u guys are in dyer need of messi joining city would be redundant because u guys already have a creative team

normally it is supposed to be the other way round. CR7 always hate on Messi and edit annoying memes, and we Messi fans can't just sit back and watch
