4 games, 12 points, 17 goals scored, only 2 conceded. This season's Barça is simply perfect, with Hansi Flick's team not only triumphing, but also entertaining the fans. Their latest success, 5-0 away against Valencia, is the clearest confirmation of their team's strength. The last time a team in Spain had a better goal difference in the first 4 games, dates back to the 1987-88 season, with Real Madrid having a goal difference of +20, which is also the record in La Liga.

This was also a special match for Hansi Flick, his 80th match in charge of Barcelona in La Liga, with the German technician setting a new record in the history of Barcelona. Thanks to the success at “Mestalla”, Flick reached the quota of 63 wins, thus breaking Luis Enrique's record, with the Spaniard counting 62 wins in his first 80 La Liga matches with Barca, while Pep Guardiola stopped at 61 wins in 80 matches.

This is set to be a special season in La Liga after their biggest rival, Real Madrid, brought back to Spain a special coach like Jose Mourinho. Spanish daily Sport has revealed that Barcelona executives held a one-on-one meeting with Hansi Flick, asking the latter not to say a word about Jose Mourinho and Real Madrid.

Barça's leaders do not want to repeat the same story as during Mourinho's first period in Madrid, where every match in "El Clasico" turned into a real battle. This strategy of Barcelona, ​​zero words about Mourinho and Real was understood even before the match against Elche, with journalists asking Flick about Real Madrid, but his answer was the first: "Don't we play against Real tomorrow? No. Just ask me questions about Elche" , Flick replied.
