True, but Deco believes in Flick and working with him. Abidal, OTOH, hated that EV wasn't his choice and has done the opposite of everything EV wanted out of spite.
Abidal was literally the worst SD we had in this century, and yet he probably the one that got the least hate overall.
Not comparing EV or Flick, the later is better, but it is kind of valid comparison that in both cases fans wanted more because of the previous year they had.
To a lesser extent it happened with Xavi, too. For both Spaniards leaving after second year would have been the best way.
