La Liga 2016/17: Eibar 0-4 Barcelona, 5 Talking Points

Messi and Suarez both got on the scoresheet

#5 Neymar and Suarez need to up the ante

Neymar scored against Eibar but will have to do more for Barcelona

With Lionel Messi striking the ball left, right and centre, his attacking counterparts Neymar and Suarez have been somewhat left in the shade this season. Although both bagged a goal apiece in the game, there were several chances they spurned earlier in the game.

Neymar had another frustrating evening where he squandered a few good chances, whereas Suarez rifled a sitter over the bar in the first half, much to his disbelief. The missed chances are very uncharacteristic of players who have been blowing teams away ever since the ‘MSN’ was formed.

Messi’s rich vein of form keeps Barca ticking, but if they are to win a couple of more trophies this season, he can’t do it alone. Neymar and Suarez need to up their game.
