Hansi Flick

[jamrock]

Good first win,
Brave starting bernal and casado
Things should get better as more players return.

First half was garbage, 2nd half very good.

Excellent result to start the season.

 

[serghei]

Good job, got lucky in the first, but bossed the 2nd, and deserved 3 pts.

 

[BusiTheKing]

The difference in quality from 1st to 2nd half mostly due to Valencia switching off. But nice to see we have energy reserves to come out on top when late game fatigue sets in.

Good coach if you ask me, and has a nice temperament. The team is in shambles in attack but somehow did it's job. Pedri and Olmo might make this team very prolific.

 

[Birdy]

Many things need fixing, especially the too hectic hit and run moments
We need more control of tempo at times
Bernal is awesome at that, I really didn't get his sub for Eric

But I can already see the new elements he wants to introduce, explained in the vid I posted yesterday
Excited to see how Flick ball will develop

Nice win to start things off, especially with all the missing players.

I think the logic was Cubarsi was close at times to getting sent off and he needed to get Christensen on and he needed someone else in the Midfield because we are short on options right now and all we had was Eric.

 

[malvolio]

Can we stop mentioning the missing players? Valencia had some unknown kids. We had a far better first 11/squad on paper.

 

[Andresito]

There was a clear improvement in second half. But let's be honest, that was usually the case with Xavi too. There was a period of like 10-15 straight games where we didn't have the lead in first half with Xavi.

The improvement came with the changes, unlike with Xavi who usually will end in his knees begging and running after the ref at every bad call. Lol I just imagine him tumbling when Christensen got an yellow.

The first half was not bad but Casadoas AM, Lw Ferran, Yamal, Lewandowski, Ter Stegen were just too poor. You can't play good with half your team doing shit fuckeries
Flick killed the game with scrubs and won.

Bernal deceptively runs alot. At 17 he was probably just tired. Good management as Casado has the engine.

If Xavi was still manager then what's starting midfield ?

Pedri-Christensen-Roberto ?

Yeah, I take Flickball thanks

Coome oooonnn, you know xavi gives youth a chance lol.

He doubt he'd start both, but probably 1

I don't know if he starts either though as he preferred Aleix Garrido to Casado and Pau Prim to Bernal.

A bit too early to make comparisons. Let's see if Flick can win something important first. Or at least compete vs Madrid for the title. Long and difficult road ahead.

I hope I don't have to tell anyone that winning stuff is key.
