Hans-Dieter Flick

I see you have come around on Araujo. W for me.

Not at all. I'd sell in an instant for a good offer. We only got offered 25m.

Flick might not play high line against stronger teams as in supercopa final

I hope so.

I also see @Birdy liking your post

You willing to admit flick adjusted the line now? Lol

You said Araujo would be fine and he is young and learning yadayada when I put blame on him for Psg incident last year.

Only instance where you attacked Xavi

Let me break it down to you

Best football club in La Liga 24/25 (WHOLE season taken into account, NOT just last 8 games)

Results wise - Real Madrid. They are first on the table.

Football quality wise - Barcelona, by a wide margin too.

I don't know what's not understandable here. If you genuinely think Real Madrid plays better football than we do then how do you explain 4-0 and 5-2?

Your point is irrelevant is the point.

It's a league 7 points clear, 2 loses compared to 5.

They don't hand out trophies for who is playing better football

Speaking of irrelevant then randomly popping up with things nobody argued and everybody knows. Not sure if others did but I never said that

Nah, I was in favor of selling him last summer. I thought he'd bring better proposals than the Juve offer. He remains one of the best options for a sale to bring money to improve the squad.

Also, I criticized Xavi when he was subbing Raphinha too early.

I'm fascinated at how much hate Flick gets here for this win and how much other fanbases praise him for what he did here. The contrast is really unbelievable.

They are used to a lifeless Barca, that would immediately give up in these moments and just try not to concede more. They are impressed to see a coach who fights until the end and makes perfect substitutions in Barcelona.

Despite his players letting him down massively here, by the way. You can argue about the tactics or whatever you want, a good chunk of those players wasn't on their best today.

Great post.

He did not, in the sense you mean it.

But micro-tweaks according to opposition are always welcome.

 

[jamrock]

As said previously, cups is our best bet this season, so I hope like Vs madrid he keeps dropping the line deeper against the better teams to give the teams some more space for errors, without them causing total havoc in the defense.

 

[Horatio]

What I am surprised about is that debate never goes beyond current season. If Flick fails on La Liga, but team is improving substantially on many fronts doesn’t that warrant some excitement for future?

Also, believe likely we win Copa del Rey and we still in race for others.

Ok I believe you.

Do you believe it can be a building block towards trophies and better results in the future though?

Let alone that his 3-5-2 subs with Fermin at LWB CHANGED the game

Anyone watching knew goals were coming: wave after wave after wave, he had them pinned since that moment
They were unprepared for that
