Speaking before the game against Sociedad, the German coach was quizzed on Yamal. First asked if Yamal will play, Flick told a press conference: "Whether he's on the bench or starting, he'll get minutes."
Flick added that he was not concerned with worrying about any chance of a potential injury setback for the young winger. He stated: "We're glad he's back and we don't think about these things [re-injury]."
Questioned why his players seemingly pick up more injuries that other clubs, the Barcelona boss played down any suggestion that there was a reason. He said: "It's not normal for us, but some injuries happen. What we're doing is reviewing the situations to find some reasons; that's our job. We're a great team, and we analyse every game, training session... and we adapt."
