More, more, more: the numbers of a Barcelona that leaves its mark

Cheerful and fun teams tend to be very grateful for statistics, which are the source of impressive numbers. This Barcelona team has won three titles, something that hasn't happened since the 2015-2016 season, and has also re-engaged the fans with some hallmarks that make them similar to the best recent Barça teams : attacking football and the influence of the youth academy. Goals and youth.

169 goals in 58 matches: he is the fifth highest-scoring Barça player in history, six behind the second-highest scorer (2014-15)

The last La Liga, with Xavi in ​​charge, was dubbed the 1-0 season because 11 games were won by the narrowest margin. This season under Hansi Flick has been the complete opposite. Addictive and moving, the champions are impossible to leave indifferent, just as they rarely draw. It's the La Liga of thrashings and the season of four Clásicos won against Madrid. The season of crazy matches. And with almost the same players.

110 goals between the front four: Lewandowski, Raphinha, Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres

From the first day, at Mestalla on August 17, the hallmarks of what the season was going to be like began to emerge. It was the first comeback. Eight more would follow in all competitions. Lewandowski's first two goals came. Thirty-eight more would follow. It marked Marc Bernal's debut as a pivot, alongside Casadó. The starting lineup was a nursery, the origin of the Dream Teen . And, since Dani Olmo hadn't yet been registered, the German coach didn't hesitate to field four forwards, with Ferran Torres on the left wing and Raphinha as the attacking midfielder. Bravery (from the coach) and audacity (from the players) were the hallmarks.

68.5% possession in La Liga: 8.1 points more than Real Madrid

The big revolution has come in attack, where he has emerged as lethal and dizzying. The team's high pressing—something intrinsic to the German coaching school—has allowed Barcelona to steal the ball and hook unsuspecting opponents. With the speed of their wingers and the instinct of their number nine, whether starting or second, they have shredded defenses.

38 goals disallowed for offside against the opponent (by the assistant and the VAR) in all competitions

With 169 goals, this team is the fifth-highest scoring team in the club's history, but is only six away from tying Luis Enrique's treble (2014-2015) for second place. Guardiola's final season (190 goals) will be unmatchable. Between the four forwards, they have celebrated 110 goals. And it could have been more, but the Blaugrana have hit the woodwork 25 times, six of them by Lewandowski.

Lamine Yamal has made 269 dribbles in the League (149 successful) while Vinícius has made 82 successful dribbles out of 176 attempts.

Goals alone don't explain Raphinha's transformation , with 25 assists and 205 crosses, nor the explosion of play and unbalanced play of Lamine Yamal , a tackling and dribbling prodigy with 269 feints, almost a hundred more than Vinícius. Both have propelled Barça while simultaneously contending for major individual awards.

The three players with the most successful passes in La Liga are from Barça: Cubarsí (2,326), Pedri (2,205) and Iñigo Martínez (2,148)

Barça, because it's in their DNA, has had a lot of possession (much more than anyone else, with 68.5% possession in their league matches) and tops the podium for the three players who have made the most passes in the league, with the two center backs and an ever-present Pedri.

Six debutants from the reserve team: Gerard Martín, Marc Bernal, Sergi Domínguez, Cuenca, Toni Fernández and Dani Rodríguez

With a steely mentality, they overcame the serious injury to captain Ter Stegen, who was absent from September to May. But their greatest defensive weapon, more so than Iñaki Peña and Szczesny, who was retired and has only missed two of 30 matches, has been the offside line, a well-oiled trap into which almost all opponents have fallen. In total, 38 goals have been disallowed for offside.

24,534 minutes between the 15 youth players (42.2% of the total minutes of the season)

Barça has achieved all of this with a team that included the only major signing, Dani Olmo, who returned home, and with a young squad and many youth players: fifteen in total. Gavi, Balde, Fermín, Eric Garcia, Casadó, and Fort have all grown up at La Masia, feel the crest, and are a guarantee. As if that weren't enough, Flick has given debuts to six players from the reserve team, who have understood that the door is open because this Barça has been brilliant and always wants more.
