Gerard Pique has warned Barcelona’s rivals both domestically and continentally that they have more than one way to unlock defences nowadays and no longer rely solely on the genius of Lionel Messi to slay their rivals.
In an interview with the Telegraph, Pique sent a message to Champions League opponents Manchester City: Everything was on Messi, with everyone trying to stop him. Ok, if it’s not Messi’s day we have Neymar, we have Pedro, we have Alexis.”
Talking further about Neymar, Spanish World Cup winner Pique said: “He’s really young, he has alot of hunger to show the world that he is right for Barcelona and that he’s one of the best players in the world.”
“His quality, his skills, his goals have added alot to the team and at the same time maybe he takes a little bit of the focus.”
