When we eventually play a classic 433
Gavi has incredible technique.
To give a concrete example it was clear Gavi was more offensive minded and far more creative in his first season here.
Gavi has incredible technique. There are tons of videos of him in Barca training doing insane manuevers with the ball.
But applying it in a game context is really different because it requires tactical and mental awareness to know which situations to apply it in and how to execute it in the best way possible.
Currently Gavi's tactical awareness is poor and I believe his development has been held back by the hard man act and the praise from the fans for that. He was being pushed in the wrong direction over the last 2 years.
To give a concrete example it was clear Gavi was more offensive minded and far more creative in his first season here. But he started to be deployed in a more defensive role and eventually adopted the scruffy doo emblem, which isn't the best way to represent his skillset at all.
Gavi still has big potential to unlock once he figures out how to use his skills instead of playing the hard man.
I believe Flick as he has done with many other players is getting the best out of him and helping him to improve on attacking.

Why would we "eventually" play 4-3-3?He does what the team requires him to do. Right now we need a runner hunting down opponents. When we eventually play a classic 433 he will showcase his immense quality more.
He played equally well under Xavi. Let's not forget that.I think in part that Xavi didn't really have an idea of how to utilize him, or to be more precise, how to communicate and/or train him properly to his best utility.
Casado, Gavi, even Kessie while wanting to keep Bob for 24/25 season.
Thankfully fresh manager and fresh eyes and different direction.
The only problem with Gavi is that he try too hard to be a tough man, Gattuso type of player/personality.Nah I'm not fooled by a couple good results. No one can learn intelligence which he doesn't have.
Low IQ players should have no place in Barca. We should sell him this summer.
He looks like a school boy trying to act tough. It's an idiotic move to even try it.Needs to abandon his tough guy act. It’s pointless, and nobody’s impressed. Time to grow up.
