Yeah but how to you make that work? They couldn't get synergy with just Neymar and Messi, and now you add Suarez into the mix. Sometimes there isn't enough cohesion between superstars to make it work, especially if the all want to play with a lot of touches.



From day one I didn't like messi and neymar together this will for sure be interesting but if this works they will be a force. Until they run into a team big in the back and just as athletic in the UCL.

Neymar, Messi, Suarez

I assume they'll play the front straight across.

Who is better on the wings?

Will one ball be enough for the three of them?

put neymar on the left wing and messi on the right play Suarez a little farther forward in that true strike role.

But their success totally depends on an extremely versatile midfield who can attack and defend.

But I'm really not sure whether we'll see Suarez up top with Neymar roaming left-central and Messi right-central or Neymar wide left, Messi withdrawn in his false 9 and Suarez to the right but playing centrally often. Frankly it doesn't matter, Barca are very fluid in positioning and Neymar can play left and centrally, Messi right and centrally, and Suarez all across the top. I think they'll fit fine.

Barca needed a born goal scorer, someone that wouldn't defer to a supporting role with Messi. Someone that was going to go for goal on their own to take pressure off Messi. Ronaldinho, Eto'o, Henry, Villa.. Suarez is perfect for what Barca need (on paper).

What Barca needs is willing runners off of Messi's dribbles. Messi barely has any movement at all anymore, so he asks for the ball to his feet, so he needs other players to exploit the space his dribbles will create. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't fit into Barca's system, and he might be the high profile scapegoat if Luis Enrique's reign goes awry.

it's pretty incredible that messi has covered the least ground in the world cup (per minute played, because there's one dude with less ground covered and many less minutes) by a large margin.

Maybe he's just saving his legs for the final?

Nah, teams are trying to mark him out of games, so his reaction is not to move, and then receive the ball to his feet from deep and try to dictate play. He's certainly not running laterally to receive the ball, or creating space for others by moving away from the play. What he is doing is working, as he's still amazing enough to influence games. He saves all his energy for his dribbles, which are wonderful in their own right.
