Not his fault that Xavi's tactics were just 10 pages of cross and insha ala.

I find it fascinating personally that Xavi had Simeone's number and Flick is constantly sucker punched. Now if you had a manager that could have the vision of Flick offensively, but would also know when it's time to go pragmatic... that would be amazing.

Flick sticks to his guns and wants to beat Simeone at his most comfortable brand of football. Maybe he will get it done, maybe Simeone is just skilled enough to respond to that decisively.

Slot doesn't hold a candle to Flick's offensive game btw. Barcelona is a far more dangerous team going forward than Liverpool.

As long as Slot beats Madrid and City convincingly, I'm fine with it.

It's not like we don't play good Football. It's just not as exciting as Flick or Klopp. It's more similar to Pep.

Barca do have a better starting front 3. We have Salah and more depth upfront.

Our defense and GK is way better than Barca. More balanced team overall.

I want to see your defense vs PSG. Or current Madrid, not the one where Vinicius didn't play and Mbappe was in shite form.

I hear the argument that we let too many chances to Atleti
I am all in for coming up with better strategies on defending

But that has to happen within the tactical ID of the team, which involves the high line
Whoever asks for dropping deep to 'protect a lead' is a certified idiot who doesn't understand a single thing about football

Good news is Flick has 2 games vs AM soon and if he wins those, he wins the duel with Simeone. Sample size will also increase with about 180 - 210 mins of football.

it’s funny cause if xavi had poor record against simeone, we would hear no repeated mention of “duel with Simeone” lol and just would care about winning.
