The Argentine skipper has stressed that he is aiming to concentrate his energies on bringing silverware to his club instead of bagging individual accolades.
Barcelona’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296 has expressed that he is focusing on winning titles with the Catalans giants, stating that individual exploits are not his priority.
The Barca number 10 was better than ever in the recently passed season, as he managed to make it to the history books with his outstanding performances throughout the year.
The attacker became only the third player in the history of the beautiful game to win the Ballon d’Or three times. This year saw him secure the coveted award for the third consecutive time.
Along with this prestigious accolade, the Rosario native also became the highest goal-scorer in the history of La Blaugrana. In addition to this, Messi also became the highest goal-scorer across Europe, hence winning the European golden boot award.
The Argentine was successfully able to break the record previously held by Gerd Muller, scoring 73 goals in the recently passed season.
Considering his performance with his club and the amount of times he has found the back of the net, many believe that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Leo-c22011 will win this year’s Ballon d’Or as well. 
However, the footballer himself has downplayed the importance of scoring goals.

While talking to reporters, the 24-year-old was quoted as saying:
"I'm not looking to beat my tally of goals, that is not my objective. I want to try and develop as a player and to give more to the team. I hope I still have margin to continue improving. My objective is to win more titles. I hope we can get back to winning
everything again."
