Hans-Dieter Flick

Basically all you are saying is this is a risky system. Nothing new, we knew it way before Flick even arrived at this club. So far, the risky system delivers so I don't see why it would need any adjustments. We already won few games in the league with our attack being atrocious, so I have little worries there.

There are already signs that adjustments are needed. It is important for Flick to make them because this is the main problem about his football. Too much risk when it's not really needed.

A bit of safety? The defense is midtable in terms of conceding chances most likely, probably as worse as some of the bottom table clubs. It's a lot of defensive safety, not a little.

What does "we should have done better" mean? Defensive players will always make errors when put under the pressure of a system that is designed for the benefit of the attacking players.

There are only two real options here to tackle the issues. Switch the tactics (and before anyone jumps at it, no, it doesn't mean anything close to playing defensive), or continue on the same line and hope the attack is gonna deliver 4-5 goals regularly. We basically demand perfection from the defensive line as it is.

Vs Atletico, in 2 games, there weren't any huge blunders imo. You can't seriously think Kounde slipping 40m away from goal in a wide position is a huge blunder. In itself, it is not, it is something that happens and will continue to happen. Only the tactics make it huge. That's Flick ball. Huge risk in defence where any little error can immediately lead to a conceded big chance and a goal.

Yo chill dude now youre overracting, you forgot the matches where it worked very well, against Real in 2 matches + Bayern weve conceded only 3 goals.

Not saying Hansi's high line isnt more risky than parking the bus but so far the output overweights the risks, i mean look at the guys here, people dreaming from treble, when was the last time we could dream from that??

Im sure we will fix the defence 'problem' soon
