Diego Alves: Messi, Suarez and Neymar are the biggest predators I know

Sunday's LaLiga clash between Barcelona and Valencia will feature Diego Alves trying to keep out three strikers who he considers to be among the best in the world.
Kicking off at 20:45 CET, the match promises to be a fiery encounter in the same vein as the Catalans' 3-2 win at Estadio Mestalla earlier in the season.
"Messi, Neymar, and Suarez are the biggest predators I know," the goalkeeper told Sportium. 
"Messi is always the player that tips the balance, he's the club talisman although they all make a great frontline.
"I know Neymar, I'm a friend of his. I like his way of playing because he's always been a dribbling-based player."
On Los Che's last visit to the Camp Nou, a tired Barcelona fell 2-1 to the away side although Alves admits that his team couldn't possibly be depending on a repeat scoreline."Winning there is always unexpected," he added. 
"We did not plan on it precisely because that's the best way for us to succeed there.
"We always go there and try to win."The Brazilian then considered the form of Marc-Andre ter Stegen, who has shown his worth between the sticks over the past few months after a rocky patch of form.
"If that's the style his coach asks for, he is perfect," Alves stated.
"He is a quality goalkeeper who likes to play and the team also helps him play with the ball. 
"A goalkeeper does not pass it around by himself, he does so because it's part of the system which helps the others around him."
