Nah man, big club is completely different. Good performances are expected and elite level is demanded. Some rise to the new challenge and welcome it, most prefer the peacefullness and more stress free life of a lower pressure environment. It is very much tied to personality, guts, ability to withstand pressure and stress. Players and managers alike are likely to suffer making the transition to a club that has to deliver titles or shit hits the fan quickly. Luckily for players, only 4-5 clubs are of this type. Barca, Madrid, Bayern, PSG are the clubs that would quickly turn on you if you proved nothing in the big stage as a player.

Barca, Madrid, Bayern because they are historical giants, PSG because their Qatari owners became ruthless after their initial 10 year galactico wannabe plan blew in their face.

Not really, we all tought that a year ago but he's been mostly fit lately and has been playing worse than ever.
Well when you constantly get injured main problem is mental, even when you come back. You play scared of getting injured again and without confidence, because you don't feel like part of the team

He's been injured his entire career.

We knew this when we signed him.

So again why did we?

I think some of you are unfair, he actually didn't do bad today - and I'm saying this as one of his biggest critics. He was even more than decent when we defending. I don't want our players to fail (except Stegen, he can fuck off), I hope he makes it and if he continues like last two games. +50M was still a fuckup to pay, ff we got him for 0-10M I wouldn't be harsh on him - but we spent 50M on him while we were broke af, on the other hand Fermin wasn't balling as he does today and Flick really wanted his 4-2-3-1 with Olmo as 10'ish...

He should be called Dani Almost until he learns how to score again. It's ridiculous how many chances he has gotten but just can't convert those into goals.

You're welcome
Flick has given him a new option on mf with with deeper role and Fermin higher up. We can see nice rotations on mf now. His minutes will be managed to get best out of him. He still has utility in the team this way.

Flick solving one world problem at a time.
