Germany legend Michael Ballack calls MSN 'Divas' In Spite of a Possible Treble

Barcelona's famed Messi, Suarez, Neymar trio has been lauded by fans and critics alike as possibly the best attacking side in the world of football. However, there are a few out there who are a bit reserved about the strikers. Recently, Germany's former midfielder and captain, Michael Ballack, revealed his veneration for the MSN, but was also quick to judge their style of play. Ballack admitted the three forwards are "outstanding", but continued by calling them "divas" because "they don't like to defend".

Ballack, however, couldn't be further from the truth.

Barcelona's South American trio are not the kind of players to just sit back and wait for a pass.
