Atleast someone appreciates Raphinha. If he played for Atleti I’m sure a lot more Barca fans would look at him with more admiration. I think he can become even better next season if we can play to his strengths.

[@manmythandlord2371]

Ferran and creativity? Bro… He is awful. I’ve honestly had enough of him. The guy is having his “best season” here at Barca and has the same g/a (14) as a “finished” Ansu Fati last season. The amount of favoritism Xavi has for him is insane. He has had two absolutely horrific seasons before this one and even when his output is the worst among the forwards once again he still continue to be invaluable to Xavi? It makes no sense. The fact Ansu, Memphis, and Auba were shipped before Ferran is insane…

[@strangehousefl]

we need to revolve the team around raphinha as a 10 and yamal as the touchline winger

[@samratsuman2699]

If flick comes.. raphi and lamin will be his most leathal weapons.. counter attacks are flicks thing and.. raphi suits it o so perfectly

[@wario1015]

Raphinha has definitely been the stand out player for Barca this season. The 70 million they spent on him was well worth it.

[@garou4941]

Having Raphinha, Yamal, Ferran Torres, Nico and Simmons will be a good thing. Look at Real Madrid team for next season...Vini, Rodrygo, Brahim Diaz, Arda Guler, Endrick and most likely Mbappe..And guess what...these Madrid players are less injury prone than what Barcelona currently has..We need options

[@batata_fx]

+ la masia. There are some good options

[@roynarain7129]

That's why Barca ended the season trophyless and lost almost every crucial matches with so many high ranked players. Raphinha is one of them.

[@BFG_10G]

Raphinha is also very good with inverted runs. I can still remember a fabulous goal that he had when Busquets was still here. We were playing in Camp Nou and Busquets made a very cutting pass across the box, and connected with Raph so beautifully for a goal. It only seems that Xavi is only beginning to realize Raph's strengths. I too have issues with Raphs decision making. He could contribute a whole more if he had little more "pauza".

[@Marky2216]

That kind of goal also happens vs ossasuna de jong was playing CB he crossed the ball from deep raphaa did the rest

[@prasannabalaji1886]

What's so surprising about Raphinha he played under Bielsa and we all know how much he expects his players to work

[@idkidc846]

Selling Rapha would be the worst decesion ever, he's been insane

[@saianeeshvinmani165]

I think a touchline winger like Williams Jr on the left would be perfect for Raphinha actually. Personally I think that Raphinha should be starting on the right over Lamine, not only to prevent injury for Lamine, but also for the fact that Lamine is just not very consistent yet. My front line would be Lewandowski, Williams Jr/Xavi Simons, and Raphinha.

[@calummacdougall8400]

We need to keep Raphinha.

[@IAmAthulKishor]

You might be the most valid Barça content maker. This video essay itself proves time and time again you deserve my sub a long time ago. 💙❤️

[@sagarshrestha2361]

I think it was when Pedri got injured or sth early in the season, he even played the right interior midfield in the 4 midfield setting. If he can improve a bit more on passes and finishes, he's one of the best players of this team.

[@chrisomarm]

Here after Xavi sacking, we’ll have to see who Flick wants to keep and who he wants to push out. Hopefully we do business early in the transfer window! Great vid

Decent player, hard worker, but not worth 60M and not even a better winger than kids like Yamal and Nico Williams. A winger has to be able to dribble and beat his man 1v1 - that's really not negotiable.

[@CompasDigital]

Rafinha is a 4-4-2 player that is why he goes inside often. Xavi is stuck in the 4-3-3 concept that is why Raphinha look better in England.

[@nem..6656]

[@renatocoelho8725]

This guy is so underrated

[@angelmihaylov6888]

We are one of the biggest clubs in the world. It's impossible that we have no transfer budget considering all the sponsors, merchandise and ticket sales, prize money and the fact that we didn't spend a cent as a transfer fee last summer (yet we had like a €100m in sales). If we manage to extend Cancelo and Felix's loans, get Zubimendi or Kimmich for €50-60m, and get rid of deadwood like Dest, Alonso, Roberto, Garcia, Lenglet, etc, etc, etc, we might just make it without that big player sale. I also am absolutely against overusing Yamal. Yes, he is a generational talent, but we saw what happens to overused wonderkids (Balde, Gavi, Fati and Pedri).

[@dinbachok6424]

I did not watch raphinha at leeds but many people said he prefer play centrally. Weird how barca buy him to play wide. Now we can see his full potential in false left wing because he mostly central.

[@akunwanneprosper7016]

Flick is here to change that pressing issue 🙏

[@jozc4273]

Honestly if you want to play tiki-taka Raphina is in theory the best player to have. He can move into spaces and is creative with his first touch.

[@angelzaragoza4653]

I rrally dont understand how ppl say this kid is trash. This kid has put that barca shirt with freaken heart. Does he get bothered because hes taking out of course passionate players get bothered in those moments especially when the rest of his teamates are either shyt or playing like straight shyt

[@luiscordero1072]

I prefer selling frenkie than raphinha

[@luismessijr30]

Raphinha is roaming flank winger n not touch line winger ..... that's why we see completely different player from the one from leeds n when you give him the roaming flank role then you see his true game ....and if you sign a player from a different play style then what you play ....you have to make some changes to adjust the player rather then try to change the way he plays....

Hi Robby will you be able to talk about our loan players? I want to know about Julian Araujo, Shadi riyadh, Dest

[@akunwanneprosper7016]

Barca could easily generate the money they will get for Raphinha by selling Ferran Torres, Eric Garcia, Oriol Romeu, Inigo Martinez, Lenglet, Julian Araujo, Dest(when he comes back from the injuty in the winter) instead. The problem is a lot of them doesn`t want to go.

[@Tacticfreak1]

Raphina is not a bad player neither a bad dribbler. Barcelona's game style doesn't fit his game, when he was at Leeds under Marcelo Bielsa, they play quick transitional football like Prime Bayern and Real Madrid. The attackers don't wait for the ball to come to them but rather they run and the ball comes to them. If Raphina was playing for Madrid he will fit perfectly and same as Bayern coz they like to play direct football. I love him so much but one thing a lot of people don't give him credit for is that he has adapted his game and he now only cares about G/A. If you check his stats in the last 3 seasons he is part of the top 5 wingers in Europe's top 5 leagues with the most Goal contributions but Barcelona fans don't respect that. I hope Hansi Flick joins the club coz it will help Raphina a lot. He is really fast and can play quick counters and transitions.

[@micmatt7858]

Instead of starting over we need to make the most of what we have we need to win more trophies and not more hatred

[@bestinthagame]

He can’t be a left back tbh he would be worse than Cancelo it’s easier to defend when you have someone already defending at your back just like how Cancelo looks like a good left back when he has someone at his back

[@Crispy_DAWG]

Barca fans not recognizing Raphinha for his contributions in these two seasons is so disrespectful. We aren’t getting another Messi so stop measuring every new player to him. I’d sell De Jong before I sold Raphinha because he’s a threat. He gives 110% every time he is on the field and even in the champions league he did everything up until we imploded. This man has the mentality we need unlike Felix and Ferran.
