Luis Enrique: The MSN might just be the best forward line in the world
The coach was full of praise for the attackers, especially Neymar
Lucho was also happy with a professional display against a good side
Luis Enrique urged football fans just to enjoy the MSN frontline after they scored all four goals in their side's 4-1 win over Villarreal on Saturday.
The Barça coach pointed out that it wasn't long ago that people were dubious about how Lionel Messi and Neymar would work in the same team.
“Years ago there was just one crack in a team [in attack] and all we heard was that there was only room for one per side,” Luis Enrique said after Messi (2), Neymar and Luis Suarez all scored against Villarreal.
“Then Neymar came and there were doubts, people said there would be tension, that you could bot have two cracks in the same team… and now look: there are three cracks. Let’s enjoy them.
"They might just be the best forward line in the world."
And Luis Enrique had special praise for the Brazilian member of the trio: “Neymar interprets football completely differently to other players, even to other Brazilians.
“I barely have enough time to even see the majority of his dribbles. It’s a huge pleasure to watch him.
“Any football fan has to appreciate what Neymar does, which sometimes seems more like ballet than dribbling. It’s beautiful, it’s effective and it’s spectacular. Time will tell if he can mark an era.”
Barça coach Luis Enrique was happy with his team's overall performance: "The team was really good with and without the ball. Scoring four goals against Villarreal is a good indicator that we have done well. The pressing was key. We produced a complete performance against a great team."
