Tito’s Barça, a goalscoring machine in La Liga
FC Barcelona are the team with the most goals scored this season in La Liga (39) and the second highest goalscoring team in the history of the Club in the first 12 weeks of the competition

Messi , the leading scorer in the league with 17 goals, has managed more on his own than 12 of the teams in the completion. Barça have made a great start to the 2012/13 season, with 34 out of a possible 36 points so far, built on a fantastic goal scoring record – 39 at a rate of 3.25 a game, seven more than the second highest scorers, Real Madrid.
