Pique backs attackers

Barcelona defender Gerard Pique believes Lionel Messi and Neymar have been in superb form in the opening weeks of the 2014-15 campaign and is delighted to be playing in the same team as both attackers.
The Brazil international netted two goals in his side's 2-0 win over Athletic Bilbao at the weekend, with Messi providing the assist for both strikes, and Pique has hailed the duo's displays so far this term.
"Messi and Neymar are as good as ever. They both have a lot of quality and when they connect it's amazing. They are two of the best in the world and they play together," the Spain defender said at a press conference.
Barcelona has collected nine points from their opening three games in La Liga and already hold a six-point advantage over arch-rivals Real Madrid.
