Hans-Dieter Flick

[Iniesta Ultra]

that's what we play

He should look into promoting Mbacke that would solve some of the defensive issues we have.

 

[serghei]

There's problems with his pressing. For example. When one opponent goes away from your zone, you don't follow him no matter what. You hand that player to the teammate in that respective zone.

Kang in Lee is pressed by Cubarsi in 2nd goal for PSG until Cubarsi is 60m away from his normal position. Why? Kang in Lee went into Casado's zone. In that moment, Casado should pick him up, and Cubarsi should resume in defense. Hand over the opponent according to zones. You press him for a bit, then once he leaves your zone, you resume your position. You don't go man for man all over the pitch ffs.

Still think it's a motivation issue too. These players just won't press or be as disciplined in the second season. Also, let's be honest, our back four is mediocre compared to most top clubs. Only Kounde would be a starter on other top CL teams.

 

[NKMaribor]

Once you break through first third press of Barca, you essentially have acres of space behind. To bad our donkeys will be unable to exploit it and shit the bed, unlike PSG.

Kounde & Balde would start for most times in the world tbh.

Flick knows the defence is not going well. Reason why the CB has changed every game or other game so far this season.

Balde won't, no. Too injury prone.

Balde yes. Martin no chance

Also Olmo is liability without Rapinha. When is Raphinha back or Fermin?

 

[jamrock]

Balde yes. Martin no chance

Jesus Christ talk about not being able to stay down

Would be smarter for him to choose two and stick with them to develop chemistry

At this time it would be Christensen Cubarsi for me, but what he choices just stick to it.

 

[MagIX]

Flick, with a team no one believed in, surprised everyone by almost winning the treble and literally humiliating Real Madrid. Already forgotten? Right now we're going through a rough patch, it happens. PSG beat us ?Fair enough, they're the CL winners, currently the best team. No need to overreact let's stay a bit positive. It's only October, we have time to get back on track.

 

[serghei]

For me, the team looked exhausted. After first half vs PSG, we played as if we were knackered.

It's very hard to fix this, unless he tweaks his approach.

That's what most reasonable coaches would do, one would think
