Match of the Week:  Barcelona 7-1 Bayern Leverkusen

Lionel Messi was, for a lack of words, brilliant as Barcelona smashed Bayern Leverkusen.  Messi tallied a remarkable five goals, a total which set a new Champions League record for most goals scored in a single game.  

The Argentine opened his tally in the 25th minute with a wonderful chip shot and added another in the 42nd minute, then bagged two more within 15 minutes after half-time.  With the game nearing its end, he once again thrilled with a solo effort.  Messi gathered the ball at the top of the box and cut onto his left foot, before he hammered a laser into the left side of the net to claim his fifth.  

The offensive explosive means Barcelona advanced into the quarterfinals 10-2 on aggregative, and look poised as ever to be headed to another Champions League final.

RVP

RVP looks set to sign with Manchester United.  After losing the race to sign Lucas Moura, all eyes are fixed on signing the Arsenal front man.   After more comments from Roberto Mancini as well as Wayne Rooney , the Dutchman is poised to make the move this weekend or early next week.  My sources also have informed me that Lucas Moura had agreed to a transfer fee only to be hijacked by big spending PSG.  Hopefully, as a United fan, RVP will be signed by the start of next week Would be a fantastic addition to United
