Hans-Dieter Flick

[malvolio]

They can play like garbage, but have the ref or some individual magic bail them out.

Not trying to downplay Madrid being the biggest robbers of them all, but that's a given since Moses wore short pants.

Fact of the matter is neither Barca or Madrid are these great teams right now. We got drunk on tap water with results vs some bad LL teams.

You can yap on about Flick all you like but the fact is noone in the world is going to do any better. The entire defence is a tragedy, there is no midfielder to shield the defence and the attack misses too many chances.
This squad needs to be refreshed badly. We've had the same core since 2022.

Yeah cause it would be so difficult to apply a better tactics than this bozo is using.

Fact is every single top manager would do better than this fool

 

[jairzinho]

If you ask me, I think the LL by Xavi in 22/23 was also a miracle. It was basically a younger and more mediocre squad than this bar Busi and Alba

Doesn't come close. Flick has 4 trophies so far with hardly any transfers compared to Xavi's LL title with haramball.

 

[Chomutov]

We aren't. If we react. It was a big shock seeing us absolutely trashed in one half by Simeone. So, we're at a point where we can still change things if we don't assume this is just an innocent little bad spell and we're fine.

It's way more than that. Time for harsher measures and for Flick to maybe look at his tactics with more self-criticism.

Will never ever happen. He was known in Germany für being a stubborn dickhead. Nice guy, but stubborn as fuck. Always blaming the team, never his shit tactics. Small manager mentality. From day one I predicted all this.

 

[DonAK]

Not that it would matter because his story here is over and he wouldn't be able to press the way wanted anyway, but a soon-to-be 39 year old Messi on his last legs is so superior to Dani Olmo and Fermin that it's funny.

I clearly feel so, too. Refereeing is clearly helping Real Madrid. You can see that fron air plane. And, they enjoy disadvantaging us. Honestly.

 

[JamDav1982]

The players all seem leggy.

Whether its fatigue, playing players too much as lack any real depth it isnt clicking at all and got away with it a lot.

 

[MonteCuler]

He's honest, at least.
I wish he'd try something different in defence. Pull Kounde to the middle, Araujo to the right.

now I seriously don't think that's the solution

 

[MonteCuler]

He really gonna lose the league to Arbeloa?

Come on.

It's February

Madrid has quite a few tough away games left. There is the league el clasico
too

 

[freetocan]

Likes of Lewa, Kounde Casado and Araujo should have been punted last summer.

All said at time but the club keep/renew them and are happy to pay Lewa who cant run 25m a season.

If Flick wanted them all to stay its on him also.

Thank you man. I fully agree with you, and….I would not be surprised at all if they will extend Lewanflopsky one more year. It was not enough that we already have a lot of deadwood, the cherry on on the cake was bringing in Cancelo. And, want to make Rashford permanently…so ridiculous management this club has!,,,,

There is no way Flick wants Cancelo.

This is Laporta paying Mendes.

I still don’t understand why these players look so tired. I don’t understand how EPL players are so much fitter than ours and they play just as many if not more games than this Barca

We also have tough matches coming up

Could be lack of depth.

 

[MonteCuler]

We also have tough matches coming up

Osasuna, Getafe, Atletico, Bilbao

Those are the 3 "hard" away games we have left. Bilbao we've spanked them every time since Flick arrived. Atletico will be tough indeed unless we improve form and Getafe likely be a little trouble as well. Osasuna depends on our mood, might destroy them might struggle

And Alaves and Valencia. Two games we probably win with ease

Real has Betis, Celta, Espanyol, Osasuna, Mallorca and Sevilla left. Also El Clasico is on Camp Nou

Basically all of those games are very dangerous

To add to this, they have only dropped points once at home this season. That is almost certainly not going to hold on until end of the season. And they have teams like Atletico and Bilbao on Bernabeu as well
