"Barcelona" club midfielder Raphinha stated that he approached this season with a completely different mindset and great confidence, and also spoke about the disrespect he faced from fans last season:

"The mindset I had entering this season is different compared to the last few seasons.

The confidence and belief I have earned from the coach and my teammates is very important to me. Being a Catalan team player is a special thing."

"I saw that people on social media were posting the number 11 shirts with Nico Williams' name... That was very disrespectful to me.

I know it was a joke, but it was in very poor taste. We have to respect those players who are in the team."

Raphinha has scored 6 goals in 12 matches this season.
