Lionel Messi is considered to be one of the best football players of his generation having received several Ballon d'Or and FIFA World Player of the Year nominations by the age of 21. His playing style and ability have drawn comparisons to football legend Diego Maradona, who himself declared Messi his successor. He helped Barcelona win La Liga in Messi's debut season, and won a double of the league and UEFA Champions League in 2006. His breakthrough season was in 2006 07: he became a first team regular, scoring a hat-trick in El Cl sico and finishing with 14 goals in 26 league games. Perhaps his most successful season was the 2008 09 season, in which Messi scored 38 goals to play an integral part in a treble winning campaign.
