Does anybody think there is any truth to the reports. Messi and Guardiola both denied it though.

Very impressive stats. Stats from Wikipedia, all competitions. Do you think he will score at least 20 goals in his 11 season? 11 consecutive seasons with at least 20 goals?

if he continues the way he is going atm, i sincerely doubt it

Its just a bad period to be honest.

Villa will get back sooner or later, and he will score a lot of goals then ..

its been nearly a whole calendar year i am afraid

I think Villa is humble enough to not have a problem with Messi. Messi regularly gives him passes he could and should convert into goals, at least once per game. And pretty much anyone of any importance has denied this.

Classic paper talk.

David Villa ostracized again..wtf is going on..another Ibra being made???


VIlla-''you dont buy a ferrari and ride it like a maruti''

Villa: you can call me what you want but i am not a supersub
