Well said. Problem at Barca is we've been spoilt by having so many wonderfully talented players who were effective that we think that's the norm. Just because a player is not a great dribbler doesn't mean he's useless. Yes, he's very similar to Lampard. He can look very ordinary at times but...

Cubarsi is still too young and needs to develop in many aspects. As soon as a youth player comes and plays well in a few games he's hailed as the next big thing and the hype train begins. I think Flick will keep him as back up only. I doubt he will be a starter. I think Faye is much better...

Flicks salary is only 3 million a year compared to Xavi's 12 million. 12 million is insane. This club is certifiable.

Am really happy that he's nor a barca dna coach. We need something different, hope he succeeds.

Flicks Bayern often bypassed the midfield and passed it straight to the attack similar to MSN. Getting a physical DM and quick left winger are key which us why Kimmich and Nico have been mentioned.

I'll judge him at the end of the season . It's a gamble but at the end of the day you have to try something new. Xavi and Marquez would be more of the same. Xavi struggled tactically and mentally. While a coach can have an occasional meltdown, his was almost every game. It sets a bad example...

First coach I'm excited about since Lucho. The rest have been all underwhelming, even Valverde.

At the moment everything is speculation. Flick knows the situation we are in, there's very little wiggle room financially. Essentially, hebhas to come up with a winning team from a strange mix of players. If he doesn't succeed, he will be sacked. That's life at a big club.

You know sometimes I actually wish Xavi was still here next season. Flick hasn't even taken ONE training session and people are on his back. Some here think he is another Di Matteo. International football is a different animal from club football so I'm not worried about his stint with Germany...

Too much ego. If he can't do ot, noone can. It's embarrassing how much he rates himself. Flick may not succeed but he certainly can't be as ringe as Xavi. If Xavi wasn't a legend press would have crucified him.

How much money do Messi and Co need? These guys could easily write off or reduce the wages they are owed. How man jets, cars, mansions do these fuckers want? No wonder players want to come here. Get overpaid, live in a great city, get thrashed in CL numerous times with no...

When Thiago was not injured he was a beast. Way better than Pedri.

Putting the men to shame.

Sell De Jong and Pedri and bring in a proper DM who's physical and can defend. 4231 is what Flick likes and would probably suit us best. As a previous poster mentioned Flick jumped in mid season during all the Covid chaos and made Bayern much better. Instead of praising Flick for that people are...

Agree but Tuchel is a difficult coach to deal with. Tuchel would fall out with the board and would create a shitstrorm.

Only proven elite CL coaches are Ancelotti, Pep and maybe Klopp.

Xavi has left the team with NO IDENTITY whatsoever. He constantly moaned, got 22 yellow cards and got sent off when a cool head was required. Laporta mortgaged the future of the club and got him the players he wanted and he constantly whinged about not having enough money fir more players. He...

Look at the trophies won also. Has any manager come to Barca with all the club trophies under their belt. Haters gonna hate.

And Xavi's experience? A couple of seasons at Qatar. Flick has manged at the highest level albeit for a short time period.

He should have been sacked in January but that idiot Laporta was dithering and negotiating with Flick. Xavi opened his mouth about the finances and Laporta and the board had enough. Stupid amateurish way to run the club but both parties are ti blame and the club comes out looking even worse...
