The Blaugrana have made an impressive start under their new boss but is this the new normal?
Barcelona have enjoyed a remarkable start to the LaLiga season under Hansi Flick, remaining undefeated and accumulating 12 points from their first four matches.
Hansi Flick’s perfect Barcelona
This impressive performance places them at the top of the table, sharing the best record in Europe's major leagues with Manchester City, Liverpool, and Paris Saint-Germain.

Barcelona's four-point lead over their closest rivals, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, and Villarreal, is the largest among the top five leagues in Europe.
Under Hansi Flick's guidance, Barca have demonstrated a competent defensive presence, conceding only three goals while scoring 13.
Their victories over Real Valladolid (7-0), Athletic (2-1), Rayo Vallecano (2-1) and Valencia (2-1), including comebacks in the away games at Valencia and Vaellecano, highlight their offensive prowess.

According to Barca Universal, the last time Barcelona displayed such attacking balance was during the 2018-19 season under Ernesto Valverde, led by star players like Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez; however, their perfect run was interrupted by a 2-2 draw with Girona on the fifth matchday of that season — the team they face in gameweek five in 2024-25.

What comes next?
Barcelona will return to league action after the international break, keen to extend their winning streak when they travel to last season’s third-placed side on September 15.
