Only Neymar can dribble four players, not me - Suarez

The 2-0 victory over Getafe on Saturday kept Barca level on points with Real Madrid at the top of La Liga and the Uruguayan talked up his strike partner's capabilities following the win.

He praised Neymar's impact in the win saying it is his counterpart's job to"dribble four rivals". Suarez opened the scoring prior to the Brazilian's well-taken volley after the break as he continued to help Barca cope with the absence of injured star Lionel Messi in recent weeks.

The forward was a constant menace to the hosts' back-line with his pace and trickery, and Suarez credited his strike partner for producing the side's moments of magic in Messi's absence.

"We all have clear functions, I can't dribble four rivals, that's a job for Neymar," he told Movistar.

Apart from Neymar's goal that sent him top of La Liga's scoring charts, Luis Enrique was equally impressed by his star's all-round display at Coliseum Alfonso Perez, praising his player as "unique".

"He brings us a lot, he is a unique player in all aspects, capable of taking on two or three opponents on his own," the coach told reporters.

"He brings us goals, assists, defensive work, keeps improving and will keep improving. He is so important for us.

"[But] we have not asked more from the players, we always ask for them to give everything. We all had to step up with players out."
