This Messi for Argentina thing is a myth.
May I suggest some popcorn?

Well first off, out of those 150 games, which teams posed a real rock solid defense? Against the best possession/midfield team ever? I mean come on after Real and Barca La Liga is filled with shit teams, whose only goal each year is a champions league spot. Of course he's going to score that much! Against shit teams that is! I guess you can count champions league games out of those 150 games, but even then how much goals is that? about 20-30, I don't know for sure. Assists are good too. About 10 assists for the CL games, probably more. Alright those were some neat tricks on the video, but what about the goals? Most strikers are known for the goals they are able to put in the back of the net.
67 apprences - 22 Goals (according to wiki) Doesn't say anything about assists
67 is nearly half of the 150 games. 22 goals is not even close to half of 148.
See what I'm saying? Product of the midfield nothing more, nothing less, in terms of the goals though! He's still pretty good probably top 10 players at this moment in time. He has a great dribble and great vision, but best ever, not good enough imo.
