Sam, Rik and Toni discuss Barca's 5-2 win over Real Betis this weekend that keeps Hansi Flick's side perfect rolling into next weekend's Clasico. Up first though, is the small matter of PSG. Lamine shines in Seville and that's one of the topics on this week's Monday pod. Join us on Patreon for analysis of the PSG game later in the week... and yes, this time probably some Shark talk.

Raphinha delivered a second hat-trick of the week to keep his remarkable form as a striker going. The Brazilian's goals helped Barcelona beat Sevilla 3-1 to continue their perfect start to the season: eight games, eight wins.

Sam, Rik and Toni discuss Barça's latest victory, analyse Raphinha's improvement in front of goal and weigh in on Real Madrid's latest defeat -- and more referee moans -- as Hansi Flick's side go five points clear at the top of LaLiga.

Bad timing for an international break...

Barcelona are celebrating the continuation of their perfect start to the season with a 4-2 win over Levante... and Toni is celebrating the birth of his daughter (congrats, Toni!), so you'll have to put up with Sam and Rik this week.

Barça won 4-2 at Levante on Sunday to make it five wins from five in LaLiga. Lamine Yamal scored two more, Xavi Espart netted his first goal for the club and Karim Adeyemi produced a stunning individual effort to seal the win.

But Hansi Flick was not happy with the performance, conceding his side were nowhere near their best as poor defending and mistakes almost let Levante back into the game.

An apology for the rattling cafe sound in the background. A technology fail and recording on location means it is not the smoothest audio, but hopefully you can appreciate the authenticity of the Valencia setting.

It won't happen again (hopefully!).

Sam, Rik and Toni talk about Barca's 5-0 whipping of Valencia which took them clear at the top of La Liga. A brace for Lamine, Fermin at his best, Rodri's first start and a potential role change for Pedri. Toni still has a bee in his bonnet about 'no-goal' Gordon, who added another assist to his stat-book. It expands into a wider discussion about 'clutch players' and their costs.

The Monday pod is back!

Barcelona's title defence began in the best possible way, with a 5-0 win at Elche on Sunday. Are they not so desperate for a No.9 after all? There was also news in defence, with Alejandro Balde omitted from the squad amid doubts over his future.
