Hans-Dieter Flick

[serghei]

Match reminded of the proverb with the cow that gives a lot of good milk and then kicks the bucket over.

 

[iniestaGOAT]

I can't see past anything after the 90th minute.

1 goal up, what do most teams do?

Men behind the ball
Keep possession if possible
Frustrate.

What does a flick team do, go for the 2nd goal, and break the defensive shape.

But at least you went out you're way, so I can respect that.

Move on to the league title now.

LEARNT FUCKING NOTHING ALL SEASON

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

Mm nah flick deffs at fault for not defending for 2 mins

Inzaghi would've been screaming at team if roles reversed

 

[Messigician]

Inzaghi would've been screaming at team if roles reversed

Yup

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

Yup

Flick's a nice guy, make a wish foundation and vibes

 

[jairzinho]

We should have put everyone back in the last 2 minutes and shut Inter out. I still don't get how open we were for their equaliser. He has to accept some blame there.

Our defensive shape was a war crime

Hansi might just be Hitler for that

Yep

Subbing Araujo instead of Christensen huge mistake

Absolutely true. Araujo lost our game. Completely novice like s beginner. Ho should never ever be introduced in the team. NEVER.

 

[Richard.H]

Absolutely true. Araujo lost our game. Completely novice like s beginner. Ho should never ever be introduced in the team. NEVER.

I absolutely agree that this was his actual biggest mistake in the match. I came to this thread to post just that. Kristensen has CL experience at this stage and those are things that are priceless at these stages of the match.

 

[freetocan]

Almost doesn't count. He failed tonight. It's on him too. Inter were tremendously beatable. I could see why they are 2nd place in Italy after Napoli in that 2nd half.

True, true, true…

 

[MonteCuler]

Let down by the usual suspects

Miracle we made it this far in the CL. But we move. Next season get some much needed depth and good backups. The Flick regime will be unstoppable.

Whoever doubts the system at this point is just foolish. With the right individuals, we can fine tune this system into an unstoppable force. Currently we don't have the right individuals on multiple positions.

 

[FCBfan22]

Our game managment since our 3rd was abysmal. And that's mainly on him.

 

[ajnotkeith]

Almost doesn't count. He failed tonight. It's on him too. Inter were tremendously beatable. I could see why they are 2nd place in Italy after Napoli in that 2nd half.

I could also see why they made the final, to be honest, they have some outstanding strengths.

But it is true that we mismanaged this game tactically also. There are a ton of fuckups from the players but that really can be limited if we were more pragmatic.

With that 3-2 lead nearing the end of the game you just have to defend, like, come on, park the bus, seeing the defense be so thin with minutes left to go is insane.

I am on board with his principles of play in general but he is too inflexible and it is the last major thing holding him back from being a legend here. I get sticking to the style of play in most situations, but its a CL semi final with minutes left to go, every team in history defends that, all the best teams did it, we are not above that.

Problem is the CL is not the type of competition you can rely on constant improvement step by step. So when you are presented with a huge chance to make a mark, you fucking do it. You don't let it slip through your fingers.

Next season you could have a bad draw and be out in quarters.

When you have the chance to catch an opponent on their knees in the 2nd half like we got Inter today, and you get the qualifying goal right at the end, you absolutely cannot behave like we did in the last 5 mins of the match and basically hand them the tie.

This is the problem. There's nothing to be proud about tonight for me. We beat ourselves with huge individual errors, and managerial errors unfortunately.
