Raphinha stated that he understands the criticism he has received, and that fans only criticize when they have high expectations.

Raphinha said in an interview with TNT Sports: "Many new players have joined the Brazilian team. That's good, a new cycle has started."

Next, Raphinha was asked about his thoughts on the criticism he received for his performance at the World Cup.

"This criticism hurts to some extent, but we have to be ready. Fans criticize players they have expectations for, so if they criticize me, it means they have expectations of me. In the last two years, I haven't been able to deliver the good results they expected. Every time I wear the national team jersey, I try my best, but football is about results. I want to achieve results like I do at Barcelona—scoring goals, assisting, winning, and winning titles—but when things don't happen, fans pressure me. Some criticism is exaggerated, and I disagree with it, but everyone has their own way. Some are harsher, some have no limits, and in the end, they set aside football and start attacking my personal life. But everyone wants to perform in their own way."

Despite acknowledging his discomfort with the situation, the 29-year-old player has never considered asking not to be selected again: "As long as I have the opportunity to wear the national team jersey, I will try to be in the best condition. As long as we win, confidence will slowly return, and the game will be easier. I'm sad that I didn't perform my best at the World Cup; I played only one and a half matches. I know I can play much better than one and a half matches. My desire is always to perform my best and give everything I can. My performance at Barcelona shows what I can give to the national team."
