Barcelona striker Luis Suarez unveiled that no one in the dressing room rates himself better than the Argentinian football start Lionel Messi.

Suarez and his strike partner Neymar have proven to the best duo for the Catalans so far in this season, after Messi missed out of action due to injury.

Both players share combined 35 goals among them in all competition for Barcelona. However, the Uruguayan believes everyone in the Barca camp is in agreement that Messi is unmatchable.

"In the locker room no one thinks they are better than anyone because everyone assumes Messi is the best," Suarez told Uruguayan radio station Sport 890.

"We assume that Messi is the best and Neymar is number two. I really enjoy the opportunity to play with them. It's a privilege.

"Our good relationship signifies a lot. We know Messi is at the top and no-one believes they are superior."

The 28-year-old former Liverpool striker further expressed his happiness as he is going to return to the national team after serving a 10-game ban for biting Giorgio Chiellini at the 2014 World Cup.
