People expect him to win the league like Bayern did in Bundesliga? So we hit a bit ot trouble, so what? We will get over it.

He only has to make sure we adjust for when the pressing is not working and the players are tired or complacent. That is the only thing that we lacked lately. That adjustment to a more cautious, pragmatic football.

Good job mister, but be careful. Lost points in the league due to complacency and half-assed pressing do not come back. They are lost for good. So, either make sure the the focus and intensity are on all the time, or take measures to deal with it when they drop to lower levels.

In cup competitions I think we can do something great this season. We look currently like the 2nd best team in CL after Liverpool. And I still think Liverpool has not been properly tested. EPL is in a weaker season compared to the previous campaigns.

Regarding Flick's league effectiveness, what he did at Bayern in Germany without any serious competition at the top is pretty much irrelevant, considering they won like 11 or 12 titles in a row if I remember correctly. In Spain, with Madrid motivated, if you lose points easily vs smaller teams and you don't at least get close to 90 points, you will lose almost guaranteed.

But Barcelona with a dysfunctional Real Madrid side and a finished Atleti side have been "tested", eh? :lol: :lol:

Well, we beat Bayern 4-1. We faced better teams than you did. First let's see if you can soundly beat this dysfunctional Madrid tonight, considering you play them at home and they miss many starters compared to El Clasico.

You only had one really tough game away at Arsenal and you came close to losing.

We have already beaten Leipzig, Milan, Leverkusen, United, Arsenal, Chelsea, etc and play in a tougher league than you.........

Honestly if we played Liverpool today, they would beat us, they are a much more controlled and smarter team for lack of a better word, than we are right now.

When we played Bayern and Madrid, I figured we could beat both of get a draw, but Liverpool is better than both this season, they would figure out a way to break flicks offside trap.

And their CBs would lock down Lewa.

But with the baby goat anything is possible.
