Lionel Messi's statistics make a mockery of the BBC
The Argentine has 33 La Liga goals, 14 more than Cristiano Ronaldo
Zidane is under pressure to drop the BBC for Morata, Isco, James and Asensio
Real Madrid's BBC front line has not been in top form, as the numbers show -- they don't even compare to Lionel Messi.
With braces in his last three league games, the Argentine crack now has 33 league goals, which is more than any of Benzema, Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo.
In fact, it's only two less than the BBC combined. Ronaldo has 19, Bale nine and Bale seven. Even players like Alvaro Morata (13) and Isco (10) have more than the French and Welsh forwards.
Messi is the leader of the race for the Pichichi and the European Golden Shoe, ahead of Bas Dost (Sporting) and Aubameyang (Borussia Dortmund).
The total goals scored by the MSN in La Liga this season is 66 goals. Luis Suarez has 24 and Neymar nine.
It's in stark difference to the form of Madrid's front three, with Barça's top scorers completed by Rakitic (7), Alcacer (6) and Rafinha (6).
