Messi was annoyed with Rakitic 

It was a comfortable win for Ernesto Valverde’s side, who now sit eight points ahead of Real Madrid.

Yet, despite the win, footage shows two moments where Messi wasn’t completely satisfied.

Both came when Ivan Rakitic was in possession of the ball. Instead of passing the ball forward, the Croatian either went backwards or sideways.

Notice how Messi reacts to both moments.

Suarez struggled

Messi’s problems weren’t as bad as Luis Suarez’s, however.

The Uruguayan is seriously struggling for form, having scored just three goals all season, and missed a sitter against Malaga.

But Ernesto Valverde isn’t concerned by Suarez’s issues, insisting that his misses mean he’s getting into good positions.

"The more chances Suarez misses, the better, it means he is always in the right place," the Barca boss said, per Marca.

"It is the third game he has played in six days, he is always having chances.

"Suarez is such a good player and the best thing about our strikers is that they always get a lot of opportunities, he wants a goal and will get one in the end."

All it takes is one goal and Suarez will be firing again.
