Eight different goalscorers
Edgar Fornós
After only six official matches, no fewer than eight Barça players have already got at least one goal. Strikers Messi, Villa, Pedro and Alexis, and midfielders Cesc, Iniesta, Xavi and Thiago have all found the target.
To date, Barça have played three Supercup matches against Real Madrid (twice) and Porto, plus two
Liga games and the Champions league opener against AC Milan. The sixteen FCB goals in these matches
have been scored by eight different players, and it is not just the strikers that have been finding
the net.
Barça scorers
Leo Messi has started this season as he ended the last, and is the side’s top
scorer with six already. Cesc Fàbregas has settled in well, and has already got three in his
account. Villa has scored two absolute peaches, and five other players have scored once, including
newcomer Alexis Sánchez, who scored his first goal for the club against Villarreal.
Goals all round in 2010/11
Last season was an amazing season in the goalscoring department. No fewer than 23
different Barça players scored at least one goal, including five players that usually turned out
for Barça B. The only outfield player in the first team that didn’t get any goals was Javier
Mascherano.
