#1 Lionel Messi
When it comes to rating the most influential attacking talents across Europe's top 5 leagues at the moment, it would be a sin not to include Barcelona talisman, Lionel Messi - considering how impressive he has been in front of goal so far during the term.

Just like Ronaldo, the Argentine has been one of the most impressive attackers in Europe for the past few years, notably claiming the European Golden Shoe during the previous term and he has returned into the current campaign doing what he is well known for - tearing opposition defenses apart, creating clear-cut chances for his teammates to score as well as finding the back of the net consistently.
Messi is currently topping the La Liga goalscoring chart right now with an impressive 9 goals and 6 assists to his name in 11 appearances so far this term and he will be looking forward to adding more to that tally as the season progresses.
