The 15/16 iteration of Barcelona could go down as the best attacking side of all time; the 14/15 version arguably already has. This is because the front three of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, and Neymar Jr. has been nothing short of unstoppable when they have all shared the pitch. While the three are known to get along quite well, we are going to pit them against one another. Specifically we are going to look at Messi vs. Neymar. 

The future of Barcelona resides with Neymar. He is 23 years old, five years younger than Messi and Suarez. Because of this we are going to to focus on Neymar in this edition of "Messi vs."

Neymar is going to have a hard time dethroning the best player in the world, but as you will see below, he has already out stripped Messi in several areas. As Messi get older and Neymar gets better, it might not be too long before we start calling Neymar the clear cut leader of Messi vs Neymar.
