Hans-Dieter Flick

[RedxMAK]

First manager to reinstall Cruyffian ideals since Luis Enrique.

Rather than changing the style, if we focus on buying a CB that is Araujo but with brain & concentration, we would be unbeatable.

Players like Yamal are a lot experienced now so I expect them to do better when in a similar situation against Inter last 3 minutes.

This guy has no plan B. Just plan A+ or plan A++.

 

[Barcaman]

Some would pine for pep and whoknows who else even if Flick won the sextuple.

This idiot will burn out Raphi and Lamine before October. Why do they need to start irrelevant friendlies instead of giving minutes to Roony and Trashy?

Match sharpness?

 

[Barcaman]

They play 45 mins. It's all good and they will need some match fitness.

 

[Messi983]

They started first two games, rest of the team needs match sharpness too.

Rest of the team also played 45 mins each match. Majority of them, at least

So far in pre season, no really tactically tweaks and he's still poor at subs.

I would have subbed olmo and Christensen in the 2nd half because they are made of glass, could have been Cuba too.

Let's hope what cuba said is correct he's told the players to take less risk next season, best we can hope for.

I don't agree with the caption but I found the clip funny nonetheless.

People that expect Flick to ditch the suicidal defensive tactics don't know this manager's personality. He is no pragmatist.

 

[DonAK]

A lot of times the club's contracted to play your star players in these friendlies.

They're not paying a lot of money to watch Lamine, Pedri, Raphinha and others ride the bench. Besides they need match sharpness and build up their fitness levels in actual games.

To use a random example: Salah has started nearly every pre-season game for Liverpool, if not all of them.

 

[jamrock]

I don't really have an issue with that.

But in the rain, I was nervous seeing Christensen and olmo on the field, with their history, when we had Guille and fort on the bench

I think he should have been nervous too and played it smarter

 

[Barcaman]

Inigo, Fermin, Cubarsi injured?

Thought players were blessed with long vacations.
