The system will continue to be weak defensively, no matter the adjustment.
That is the reality. Flick system is offensive minded and pressing is the defense. Few tweeks here and there might improve few things, but we will continue to rely on ourscoring opponents, and you will continue to blame the system. It is like a girl saying "I will change him". Rather than accepting who he is.
But then again, that is also me, because I will continue to hope for a big CB signing when I know the club doesn't care, and we won't sign one.
I'm not, nor is anyone with common sense, asking Flick to change his entire way of playing, nor does he need to.
It's simple: if you are 1 goal ahead, with 3 minutes left, maybe don't go looking for a second goal.
An adjustment he has shown he's capable of making since the winter break in La Liga.
Against Inter, the entire team, and he, just got caught up in the moment.
I think it was against Madrid, after the Inter game, that Yamal got the ball late as well and went to the corner flag, basically showing he learned from that situation, and Flick said what he said about the game afterward, so I won't repeat it.
The issue isn't the quality of the defenders; Flick knows it, the entire coaching and technical staff knows it.
We will need to replace Martínez soon; that's about it.
Again, I've asked multiple times, and no one can ever give me an answer: name five teams with four better center backs than us?
Arsenal, because all they buy are defenders; Liverpool, as they have two excellent starting center backs, then it falls off a cliff.
After that, I'm struggling.
I'm not trading our four for City's, PSG's, Bayern's, Madrid's, or whoever's.
Because individual quality isn't the problem.
