The staff of the FC Barcelona expects impatiently the turn of Leo Messi, what will give confidence to the rest of his mates to show his best level in the coming commitments of the team, that will measure on 15 October to the Sportive of the Coruña and the day 19 to the Manchester City in Champions League. The Barça has known to carry out quite well the parties of this season in which it has not been able to be the Argentinian, but the feeling of the changing room is that, if Leo Messi had been against the Celtic, the final result of the party could have been another.

"Messi gives you a plus. It notices when Leo is or is not. It is clear that we are much stronger with Leo", commented recently Jordi Alba in an interview conceded to "TVE". The statistics, in any case, ensure that the Barça is used to to win also the majority of his parties when Leo Messi is not available, and from before even that they arrived Neymar Jr and Luis Suárez.

From the season 2006-07, Messi has lost a total of 96 meetings, being in the big majority of occasions some injury the reason. With the presence of the Argentinian in the eleven, the FC Barcelona has promediado 70% of victories, 19% of ties and 11% of defeats, with a balance goleador of 2.65 so many in favour and 0.8 against.

Without the "crack" of Rosario the data of the FC Barcelona are something worse in general lines, but neither so negative like some can think. Without Leo Messi, the Barça has been able to win 66% of his duels, so only 4% less, whereas the percentage of ties is of 21% and the one of defeats, of 13%, going up 2% each one.

The balance goleador also reduces slightly, happening of 2,65% above-mentioned to 2,3%. The reduction, in any case, could be elder taking into account that the "10" no only is a potential goleador when it is near of the area, but thanks to his vision of game is used to to generate by himself only occasions of goal very favourable for his mates, being considered like one of the best assistants of the world.

Precisely these virtues of the Argentinian want to recover his mates in the Barça, conscious that the general game of the team will improve when Leo Messi go back to be present, and to the one hundred by one hundred, on the terrains of game.
