Neymar shocked the football world when he left Barca to join PSG in a world-record move in the last transfer window.
However, Barca have shown no signs of weakness since the Brazilian's departure, as they are well on course to reclaim LaLiga glory.
Messi claims the Catalan giants have improve defensively since Neymar's departure as the balance is now better.
"Without Neymar we are more balanced," Messi told Marca.
"His departure meant a change in our way of playing, we lost a lot of attacking potential, but it helped in the defensive sense.
"We are currently very well armed in the midfield; this makes us stronger in defence."
