Flick gets overcriticized because he overachieved last season. People forget the mess he inherited from Xavi @Temptation @Fati_Future_BallonDor
This was the narrative when he took over

Those pundits on ESPN FC are half retarded, and that's their good half. Not to mention they are Madrid fans, the lot of them almost. Madrid hasn't repeated a league title in 20 years almost and they say something like that. That show is good for comic relief and not much else.

There wont be a press conference from Hansi before the match, Flick thinks its better when his assistent holds it:
“I’m very proud to be managing from the bench. It will be a very tough game. It will be important to control possession and apply pressure.”
Regarding not having Flick present on the touchline for the game, he added: “We always miss Hansi when he’s not here. He’s the most important part of the team. We all know what we have to do.”
“Lamine is a top player, and he’ll be motivated for tomorrow. Hopefully, he can have a great game,” he said.
Regarding the challenge that the 18-year-old faces going up against Real Madrid left-back Alvaro Carreras, who performed well in this duel while at Benfica, Sorg remarked:
“Lamine is always motivated. If I remember correctly, we won every game with Benfica.”
The Barcelona assistant coach then lamented the absence of Raphinha, who has not recovered from his hamstring injury, while also offering an update on Ferran Torres.
“Raphinha won’t be available, but we have enough players. We’ll try to get Ferran on the pitch, but we’ll decide tomorrow,” said Sorg.
Regarding the condition of Jules Kounde and his availability, Sorg stated: “Jules trained this morning, and we have to wait and see how he reacts after training. We haven’t decided on tomorrow’s starting eleven yet.”
On the topic of referees, especially after the game against Girona, where Barcelona felt aggrieved by some of the decisions, Sorg remarked:
“You have to focus on the match and nothing else. You can’t think about the referees. We all make mistakes, and we have to discuss what we can control.”
There have been some question marks about Barcelona’s high defensive line tactics, especially after the heavy defeat against Sevilla, but Sorg insists that they will stick to their guns.
“We have to do our job well, press and keep a high line. If we change anything, we’ll lose our structure, and that doesn’t help,” he stated.
Regarding who is the favourite heading into the match, Sorg refused to pick one, saying: “In these games, it’s 50/50. The team that plays better will win, it’s that simple.”
Barcelona are facing a selection dilemma in central defence, where Ronald Araujo is pushing for a start while Pau Cubarsi and Eric Garcia have done well. On the topic, the assistant coach said:
“Normally it’s better to play with the same eleven, but we’ve had a lot of injuries and we’ve made changes. If you have 60 games a year, it’s not possible to always stick with the same ones.”
“The biggest change is that they press very well, especially in attack.”
The Barcelona assistant coach also touched upon the atmosphere at the Santiago Bernabeu and how it can pose a challenge.
“At the Bernabeu, you never know what might happen. There are a lot of emotions, and we’re ready for that,” he remarked.
“We had a good transition, and if we want to win at the Bernabeu, we have to stick together, press and play as a unit. If we do that, we’ll have chances.”
Regarding Real Madrid superstars Vinicius Jr. and Kylian Mbappe, he added: “We always talk about the opposition. That’s how we work. The players will be ready, especially for Vini and Mbappe.”
“I’m very proud to be managing from the bench. It will be a very tough game. It will be important to control possession and apply pressure.”

On the opposition
Sorg then spoke about Real Madrid and their improvement this season under Xabi Alonso, saying:“The biggest change is that they press very well, especially in attack.”
The Barcelona assistant coach also touched upon the atmosphere at the Santiago Bernabeu and how it can pose a challenge.
“At the Bernabeu, you never know what might happen. There are a lot of emotions, and we’re ready for that,” he remarked.
