    CL Round 7: Benfica - Barca 4-5

    Martines should be the first CB choice once he recovers from his injury

    CL Round 7: Benfica - Barca 4-5

    I guess now it has become more clear who will take the GK spot for the remaining campaign

    La Liga Round 20: Getafe - Barca 1-1

    Can't believe the team lost points against Getafe again. I know that Flick is an attacking puris but after scoring the goal, the team should have given the ball to Getafe and used counter attacks. It would make Getafe fall off the rails because, as it stands, the match went according to Getafe's...

    4 - Ronald McDonald Araújo

    The question of whether or not to extend him is not about his skillset because overall he is a good defender that can help the squad challenge for the titles. Either as a starter or a sub. It is more about his injury record and the wages he wants. Because giving him a new 5-year contract at...

    Iñaki Peña (loaned to Elche)

    After yesterday\s match, he is probably the 1 GK choice for Barca. Hard to tell if it is good or not. Tek messed up but was good overall. The main test will be UCL play-off games. Pena needs to step up for those games if he wants to challenge Ter Stegen for the number one spot in the future.

    17 - Marc Casadó

    Unplayable right now. I like how he used his chance and established as the regular part of the starting eleven, which to be honest was hard to imagine at the start of the season and I guess no one really expected that to happen.

    Real Madrid

    They lost the game. But they will come back stronger. It is Real who always manage to come back.

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    Mendes does what is best for the client. He is his agent first and foremost. The Fati situation, as I understand it, was 50/50 at the time. He was the ultimate hope of Barca at that time. So the wage was in some sense justified by his previous performances and goals. The club, I guess, wanted to...

    Iñaki Peña (loaned to Elche)

    Did well at the end. Was reliable when had to come on the pitch instead of Tek. Although some doubts remain if he can perform in the biggest matches - meaning the UCL play off stage. But so far so good. Reliable, not too many mistakes. But no great saves either. He hasn't had a game when you...

    Iñigo Martínez

    Given how he has performed this season, he deserves a one-year extension. I have doubts about his fitness level and such. But he has been great in the Flick system so far.

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    He has been outstanding the season. What I am worried about it how the club will manage his transition to a great player. Meaning contracts and such. Barca really messed it up with Messi who took Barca for a ride wit his demands. Hopefully something will be learned from the experience. Also, I...

    Gerard Piqué

    God forbid. He would be the ultimate amigo president. Lazy, probably a little bit corrupt. Although it's the norm in Spain. Former players rarely make good presidents or great coaches. It's a totally different skillset.

    Joan Laporta

    He deserved the win. Firing Xavi and appointing Flick was the right decision in the hindsight. But a lot of work still needs to be done if he wants to match achievements of papa Perez.

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Good game. Had a good work rate off the ball. Provided the necessary relief from the pressure for the team when needed.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Honestly guys what I really like about Flick is that he knows what "arbeiten" really means and knows how to instill "arbeiten" into players. That is what the club has been missing over years. No more amigos club. No more "I am not going to work off the ball attitude". Also, unlike Xavi, he...

    21 - Frenkie de Jong

    The problem with Frenkie is that he is one of the players that Bartomeu bough that does not know how to suffer and avoids the hard work at all costs. The sort of an amigo player. He probably likes the city, likes the fact that he plays for one of the biggest clubs in the world. But does not want...

    11 - Raphinha

    He really knows how to deliver. The best Brazilian player at this moment. Athletic, hard-working and disciplined. Seems to have added some new tricks to his arsenal. Was really impressed how he beat/got past Real Madrid players

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    The best manager by far over the last 10 years. Has a plan. Knows how to instill order and discipline in the team. The kind of manager that Barca has really been missing.

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    I was very skeptical when Flick subbed him for Olmo. Because the last time when Barca was man down in the PSG game, it really made the situation worse. But nevertheless a great decision overall. He got some rest by not playing the full game. The team did well and managed to cope without him.

    23 - Jules Kounde

    A great performance. What I like about him, is that he can be realied upon when the team needs him. Athletic, hard-working and disciplined. Over the past years, Barca has really missed the types of players, which lead to some horrible results.
