It's a treat for FC Barcelona at the start of the season. Hansi Flick, who succeeded Xavi this summer on the Blaugrana bench, managed to impose his mark on this team in just a few weeks. His risky style of play, with a defense that evolves very high on the pitch, is paying off for the moment, with 14 victories in 16 matches in all competitions – which further highlights the performance achieved by Monaco in September.
Above all, Barça is a hit offensively. After their 5-2 victory on the pitch of Red Star Belgrade on Wednesday evening during the 4th day of the Champions League, the Catalans have already scored 55 goals this season (nearly 3.5 on average per match) . Unheard of since 1950, and the era of Czechoslovakian coach Ferdinand Daučík.

Among the most notable demonstrations of recent weeks, we will obviously note the humiliation inflicted on Real Madrid at the Bernabeu (0-4), but also the 4-1 against Bayern Munich or the 7-0 administered to Valladolid. And it's Robert Lewandowski who's laughing, with 19 goals scored already (12 for Raphinha, 6 for Yamal).
Leader of the Spanish championship with nine points ahead of rival Madrid (but one match more), installed in the top eight in the Champions League standings, Barça is progressing quickly and well at the start of the season. Let him take advantage of it, because soon, the ogre Stade Brestois will visit him at the Olympic Stadium in Montjuic. No more laughing.
