Messi has hit the post 14 times this season, Barcelona 26 times
Lionel Messi has rattled the woodwork 14 times with Luis Suárez (4), Piqué (3), Paulinho (2), Rakitic, Deulofeu and Alba all troubling the frame of the goal too.
Lionel Messi has hit the post 14 times this season. He failed to score against Depor on Sunday night but rattled the crossbar and the post three times. Jordi Alba hit it once too as well as another shot that sliced off the post by Luis Suárez.
In total, Barcelona have hit the post 26 times this season in 26 games. They are eight points better off than they were at this time last season in LaLiga and you have to wonder how good they might be if even half of those shots were to go in.
The 26 has been spread out amongst the team too. Messi, with his 14 leads the team along with Luis Suárez (4), Piqué (3), Paulinho (2), Rakitic, Deulofeu and Jordi Alba.
