Yes, I understand. I don't think Araujo should play. The main couple is Kubarsi and Inigo. All I'm saying is that they are quite good for Flick's system (good positioning, passing game, etc.), but not ideal as they lack speed.

The problem is not speed imo. Often the strikers have a head start because we try to leave them offside thinking they are the target for a straight pass. When in fact, ball is played wide than quickly switched with a fast low cross to the striker who already has a positional advantage to the defenders because the defenders played the offside trap.
The idea is that any player that is offside can become a huge threat if ball is fed to them by a wide runner who is not offside.

Inigo is no longer young, so the team should aim to find a central defender with qualities:
left-footed
good positioning (high football IQ, etc)
speed both starting and in the distance
good passing game
good aerial duels
Yes, it sounds so, corny, but that's what it is. There's Saliba on the market, but he's right-footed.

Calma. It's a draw in which we scored 4 goals, and the reality is their chance quality didn't near match their 4 goal tally. Once again we showed lethal attacking prowess.
We will win the second leg.
Too much panic here and pseudo analysis. Flick lives and dies by the sword, we know this, but we were the better team. and we'll prove it in the second leg.
Bookmark this, Flick haters.

The discussion about results aside, strictly from seeing the team's style this season, apart from Pep ball that is untouchable aesthetically for me, Flick is the best I've seen from Barca managers. In this sense, any discussion about replacing him is a non-possibility until the motivation in the team irremediably declines.
Be a huge shame if he can't make it deliver big titles. To make it effective also, not only pleasing to the eye is the biggest challenge of the club. For Flick first and foremost, but also for the club in terms of upgrading the squad, and for the players themselves to not let their manager down individually.

Flick is the kind of guy that takes a knife to a gunfight. When people query why he would participate in such suicidal folly they are rebuked with " Haven't you seen how good Flick fights with a knife? ".
Meanwhile, he is lying dead on the floor with a bullet wound to his head.
And that ladies and gentlemen, is the metaphor of the day.
See you tomorrow.

He has done nothing to fix any of the flaws we have seen from the beginning of the season.
Congrats.
Congrats.
Only thing that will stop Flick is our lack of depth in forwards and fullbacks. He needs to be allowed to sign a few player this summer.
We're 2/3 through the season and we're top of the league, in the copa semi final, in the UCL knockouts and won the supercopa. Think that might be the first season since 2018/2019 we can actually say that.

We aren't interested in mid season results.
You know what he does? For last 6 months he maintained most exciting football in the world and got Barca on top of ALL competitions.
Noone expected him to pull it off with cards he's been dealt.
We should thank our lucky stars Laporta chose him.

We were very entertained after 0-2 vs las plamas and 1-0 before that
We don't wanna hear it
These entertaining games come once every three games
