Five goals, a Raphinha hat-trick, Gavi returning to action, and still resting some legs: Barcelona couldn't have asked for a better prelude to their Champions League second leg against Newcastle.
Andy and David discuss their 5-2 victory over Sevilla in a game that – once more – put the importance of Raphinha to this team in block capitals. More surprising was the return of vintage João Cancelo. Did this game show why Barcelona must try to sign him permanently? We also take a closer look at Sevilla's woes and discuss how Barcelona might try and neutralise – or avoid – Newcastle's physicality on Wednesday night.
