#1. Antoine Griezmann
Neymar's departure in 2017 put an end to the famous 'MSN' trio that took Europe by storm and eventually reduced Barcelona's attacking strength.
Even though the Blaugrana were one of the most impressive attacking teams on the planet last season, it was Lionel Messi who carried a very large percentage of the offensive duties all by himself.
The attacker bagged an impressive 44 goals and 14 assists in all competitions for the Blaugrana during the campaign.
However, he could have done even more if there was a player of Neymar's caliber to compliment him in the attack. Therefore, the club must not waste time in recruiting another world-class attacker to join Messi and Suarez up front.
Atletico Madrid superstar, Antoine Griezmann is currently the right man for the job. In fact, the player is expected to join the Blaugrana at the Camp Nou this summer with his release clause falling to €100million.
Signing Griezmann will improve Barcelona's attack dramatically and enable Lionel Messi to run riot in the offensive zone. His creativity will be a great asset and his link-up will enable him to forge a perfect relationship with the Argentine at the Camp Nou.
The 27-year old was one of the deadliest attackers in Europe the last term, bagging an amazing 29 goals and 13 assists in 49 appearances for the Rojiblancos. He will definitely do more if he eventually joins an attacking side like Barcelona.
Conclusion
Recruiting these players looks like replacing Xavi, Iniesta, and Neymar. How would Lionel Messi not thrive? Imagine a midfield made up of Coutinho/Eriksen, Busquets/Rakitic, Verratti/Erkisen and an attack made up of Griezmann/Coutinho, Suarez, and Messi!
