FC Barcelona has got a dream start to their new campaign. Winning all four fixtures before the international break, the club stands at the top of the La Liga table with 12 points. While Barcelona boss Hansi Flick owes a major part of the club's success so far, nothing can be taken from the Blaugrana club players.

Be it Barca's Young sensation, Lamine Yamal Or Lewandowski, Dani Olmo, or Jules Kounde, everyone has been brilliant. However, the star who has been the most effective for the club's overall performance has been Raphinha. Having made six goal contributions in the four matches so far, the Brazilian has been extraordinary in whatever position he has adorned in the Barca lineup.

Recently, in the media address, Raphinha was asked about his personal goals after coming from a brilliant run recently. Raphinha replied, 

""Yes, I have a goal. I wrote it on a piece of paper at home. What is it? I won't say it. At the end of the season, I'll tell you if I achieved it or not.""

Raphinha has been stellar for FC Barcelona this season. Wherever the Brazilian has been positioned in the playing XI, he has proven his potential time and again this season. Regarding the same, addressing the question about his favorite football position, Raphinha humorously replied, 

""On the pitch.""

Currently, being one of the club captains, the Brazilian stands of utmost importance to the club. However, in the past, incidences can be recalled where Raphinha didn't enjoy certainty despite performing consistently. For instance, during this summer window as well, Raphinha was well-considered by the Blaugrana management for making certain high-profile moves; however, luckily, it didn't happen. 

Reflecting upon the past, where rumors were associated with the player's future, Raphinha responded that he was much hurt. In his words, Raphinha said, 

"'Yes, it hurt me. The truth is that my thinking has always been here, and as I told you, I always start the season thinking about working harder than last season to achieve more and to prove that I am capable of staying here for many years.""

Raphinha has been one of the most consistent performers at the Catalan club, and clearly, the club's thinking about his departure was incorrect from the board. With masterclass performances one after the other, Raphinha has instilled much confidence in Flick regarding his role, and the club hopes that he continues with the same intensity after the international break.
