Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has said that Luis Suarez's slow start at Barcelona is down to Lionel Messi being dominant.
Suarez is struggling to rekindle his form from the Premier League, as the striker is yet to score a goal in five league appearances for his new club.
However, Wenger believes that the striker will come good but will have to play a 'lesser role' to talisman Messi.
"It's not easy in a team where you have such a dominant figure as Messi," Wenger said, according to Goal.com.
"The game naturally goes through the strong point so, in Barcelona, the game goes through Messi. It means the other players become a bit more peripheral. I'm certain he will find his place but it's not easy for the players there.
"You could see now when you watch Barcelona, Suarez was a super-dominant figure at Liverpool and sometimes you think, 'Where is he?'"
Suarez netted 31 times in 33 appearances for Liverpool last season and made his £70m move to the Catalan giants in the summer.
