Paris Saint-Germain's ex-Barça star took to social media to hail Luis Suárez and Lionel Messi after the pair's goals against Atlético as good as sealed the title.

As Barça celebrated the crucial victory at the Camp Nou, Suárez posted a photo of himself with Messi on Instagram, accompanied by the caption: "GET IIIIIIIIIIN. Awesome stuff from the lads." Soon after, Neymar, who has also frequently been tipped to join Barça's arch rivals Real Madrid, commented on the post, congratulating the pair with the message, "Legends."
Division of opinion on Neymar in Instagram replies
Many of Suárez's social-media followers replied to Neymar's message by urging the Paris Saint-Germain forward to rejoin Barça, while others criticised the Brazilian over his 2017 decision to leave for the Ligue 1 champions in a world-record, 222m-euro transfer 2017.

Neymar left Barcelona not because Messi was better than him but because since as messi grew up there, they always gave him the praise ahead of Neymar. The match of Barcelona vs Psg made me love Barcelona because of Neymar💓 He's indeed spectacular.

the thing is that neymar left cuz he wanted to headline a team but what he doesn't know is that you cant be a legend overnight for example messi played with legends and he his regarded as one cause he was able to outplay them he took some of the extra burden off them like when he played with ronaldinho ... messi took some of the burden in play making scoring etc ... neymar who was considered to be the one to lead barca to the post messi era he was meant soak in some of messi awesomeness and with time fame would have come but how did he expect to take headlines in a club where a player like messi is like cmon ... messi too didnt start like that with time he understood his role in the club which led them out of the post ronaldinho era
