Barcelona played very freely, without any pressure and the relationship between the players was very harmonious. The players also experienced an increase in performance after being coached by Hansi Flick. Several young players began to take important roles in the main squad and their positions were very difficult to replace. The trust given by Hansi Flick makes Barcelona one of the strong candidates to win the La Liga trophy.
Pedri explained how Flick's punishments had changed compared to Xavi's, if players were late for training during Xavi's time, they would pay for it, 1,000 euros per minute of delay, and every subsequent minute the amount would double. Under Flick, everything is different, if you are late for training, you will not be in the starting lineup, or will be left out of the game's roster altogether.
Well every manager has their own way of punishing their own players and how they lead when they find themselves in a position. But I think Xavi was trying to be more flexible with the players and not to be that strict with his players. I won't even say that Xavi own was the best or Flick pattern of punishment is the best. Xavi achieved his own result with his punishment pattern, but the players won't feel the impact that much, because they are well paid and they will always have the money to pay. But you see this flick pattern, no player will want to come late to training, because players don't like anything that will prevent from playing matches. The truth is that there is a big difference between Xavi led Barcelona and that of Flick.

I think Flick's punishment was more severe. It doesn't give a financial punishment but he can't find time in the match that week. Just think, your most important weapon doesn't come to training and Flick doesn't let him play in the match in order not to break discipline. This is a big threat to the other players. I'm sure everyone comes to training on time.
Hansi Flick's way of making rules to discipline his players is like a double-edged sword. On the one hand, there are advantages because in this way, players will never be late for training and have the opportunity to gain trust from the coach. In addition, it will improve the player's mentality. However, on the other hand, when a player breaks the rules but has a high work ethic on the field or in other words contributes a lot, he will still be crossed out. This is an unavoidable risk.
But for now, Hansi Flick is considered successful in doing so.
I think a player with high work capacity would not be late for training on purpose. I am sure the manager has a justice system that will ensure that those who are late unintentionally are not included in this scope. What Hansi Flick has done in Barcelona is magnificent. He is literally writing history with Barcelona. They are playing magnificent matches in both the Champions League and the Spanish league this year without much reinforcement to the squad that was left last year. I think this can best be called a tactical difference.

While Barcelona is filled with players who are not so prominent, so they play freely without pressure from fans and Observer. 9 points is too much gap, and Madrid would not come to taking the 1st position with their condition now

This is one of the advantages of a coach who is considered great because in the end the presence of a coach in a club is not only used as someone who only gives instructions and formations on the field but also in this case the role of the coach is certainly to build good communication with the players in order to have harmony of thought and chemistry so that their cooperation is increasingly well established and until now Flick has been able to do that.
This clearly has a very big impact because not only team cooperation and performance are built, but there is also an increase in individual players who make Barcelona currently seem to have everything with unstoppable in La Liga and still have positive results in the Champions League.
This is a positive thing but also a threat to Madrid because if something like this cannot be stopped then they will be further left behind by Barcelona.

We can see that Real Madrid has been performing very poorly recently. Real Madrid lost by a big margin against Barcelona in El Clasico and Real Madrid lost by a big margin against AC Milan in the Champions League match. Everyone may be blaming Mbappe's performance or the manager's strategy behind this big defeat but everyone should think about one thing. Mbappe is certainly good in the attacking line but when Mbappe is supplied with the ball from midfield Mbappe is able to finish the ball well. So far it has not been that Mbappe has dropped down for the team's needs or taken the ball from midfield to pass it to another player or score a goal. The first thing is that Real Madrid's midfield must be more active and clear the ball to Mbappe from midfield. If Mbappe can clear the ball from Real Madrid's midfield then Mbappe can score for Real Madrid and Real Madrid will be back to their best form.

I didn't watch Real Madrid's match against AC Milan, so I can't tell where they went wrong, but when Real Madrid met Barcelona in their last El Clasico, I saw that Mbappe was the problem there, do you remember how many offside fouls he committed that time?

I think Real Madrid were better last season, and that was Real Madrid playing without Mbappe, if Mbappe doesn't manage to prove his quality to the public in the near future, I think everyone will have the same opinion as me.
There has been some arguement that the coming of kylian mbappé was very unnecessary for Real Madrid as they already had a squad that could easily win them back the champions League and the Spanish la Liga, currently we are hearing rumors that kylian mbappé is complaining about the wing he has been playing, suggesting that the wing Jude Bellingham is playing will I be more preferable for him because it will allow him be at the front line much better. 

But this two shocking defeat they've faced it's just a temporary setback that they will surmount if they go back to the drawing board and think on the best approach and formation to come up with,  because looking at the squad they have they really don't have much excuse not to come back better and stronger.

The rule is certainly better than the rule on fines, because they think that with money everything can be arranged but Flick applies it in a different way that makes time is money, or time is gold but the point is discipline with time is important and cannot be redeemed with money. But indeed, I also compare the joy of the players in the Hansi Flick era, it looks better, or they really enjoy the program made by Hansi Flick. At least, when in the Xavi era I noticed that Lewandowski looked very stressed or depressed or unhappy, but in the Hansi Flick era this season I noticed Lewandowski regaining his happiness in football and it had a good impact on his performance this season too.

I don't think it's entirely Mbappe's fault. For me, Mbappe is still one of the most valuable players in the world today. He still needs time to adapt because at Real Madrid he plays the number 9 role because the winger position is already occupied by Vini. On the other hand, losing Kroos really makes Real Madrid's midfield uncreative. We can see how Real Madrid's attack line always receives direct passes or through passes from Kroos or Modric. And on the other hand, AC Milan plays very solidly with their defense. We know that Italy has a very solid defense and that is also what makes Real Madrid's attackers unable to penetrate.

Pokapoka124,
My dear brother, I do not see Real Madrid coming back in La Liga to beat Barcelona. No matter how good that might turn to become in the future it all depends on the Barcelona squad. The present Barcelona will are seen is not joking and they have started to hit the ground right from their first match till this moment. Raphinlna is in his top form, the little Yamal and old Lewa are all in good form.
So, for Real Madrid to win the La Liga means that two things will have to happen;
  • Real Madrid has to return to excellent form
  • Barcelona has to lose form
But there's no guarantee that these two things will happen.

now i don't carefully follow the romantic events that happen inside in the teams, I wanted to know if it was true that Mbappe is causing damage in the dressing room
If this is really happening, Mbappe can do more damage than good and should be left at home immediately, not on the bench

Yes, it's true, in the end there are only two, i'd say three, Atletico Madrid are also there and they're a nice team even if they don't directly compete for the podium.
In the end, the title is always between the two of them, Real Madrid and Barcelona.
I am also convinced that Barcelona will win easily this year, Real Madrid have too many problems at home at the moment.

This shows how discipline Flick is, and if you observe his pattern is the best because players will not want to miss out playing the next match. This will make them take training serious, playing their role serious, otherwise, you will be replaced. Money is not what can discipline a man, because if he has too much, the law will not affect him, since he can buy his way out. Flick coach skill is extraordinary because he is not only teaching them football but how to be very serious with their career.
Every coach has got a system that works for them and makes sure to implement such, looking at the case of xabi, it was a strict measure actually because that means 10mins delay would cost the player a whooping 10000 euro, in as much as you think money is something people can always buy their way through with, it sometimes becomes a challenge especially when it is huge, the flicks method is s good one as it directly affects the career of the player so it will make them to sit up though but it doesn't seem like it will be the best over the later its just what works at this time.

Actually, both of them have done their jobs well and according to what the management wants, although both are different, the mission of these two coaches is certainly the same, both want to restore Barcelona's glory as before, whatever the punishment for players who are not disciplined is very deserving of punishment, whether it is a fine or not included in the main squad, I support what Xavi, the previous coach, and Hansi Flick did because it has a deterrent effect on the players and at least the players will think twice if they do that, because all Barcelona players must be aware of their capacity on the field whether it is good or not, because they are the players who are expected by all Barcelona supporters to restore Barcelona's glory that has been lost for quite a long time.

Although previously the sacking of xavi triggered the pros and cons of the fans at that time, but it seems that those who are against can now smile to see Barcelona's performance which has improved significantly, with Flick's more humanist approach and focus on team performance, hansi flick is able to develop every potential possessed by his players both young and experienced players today, I think Flick's decision to replace financial penalties with direct consequences for player involvement in matches certainly shows a more effective method of improving the performance and consistency of their squad, I think the changes in punishment made by the coach have clearly had many positive effects at this time and even I see every Barcelona player enjoying every change that has occurred in their team.

Currently Lewandowski leads the goal tally with 14 goals he has scored, 2 times more than other players below him who have 7 goals. Clearly this is a good thing that he can give and also do not forget that this can happen because he does get support from his teammates who also played very well this season. Hansi Flick can understand what he is implementing, I mean he understands the abilities of his players which makes him able to play well like this. Indeed, the role of the coach is very important, especially in understanding each character of the player, because that way the strategy that will be used can run very well.
It's big difference in about one-third of season but it is too early to call him as a best scorer of La Liga in this season. The bigger challenge for Lewandowski to win this award, is himself, his body and injury or not in rest of this season. If he can avoid injuries, he will have more appearances for Barcelona and with a very good team like they've shown so far, Lewandowski will receive many good key passes, assists for scoring more goals.

It's not coincidence that Lewandowski is a third best goal scorer of all time in Europe's top leagues.

In the previous season, Lewandowski did not get support from his teammates so that in the front line Lewandowski could not perform optimally but in this season Lewandowski proved that he still has good quality if the coach's tactics match his playing style and he also gets a lot of support from other teammates so that Lewandowski can score many goals, I am not surprised by that because basically Lewandowski is a very quality player.
The quality possessed by Lewandowski at his current age can still be said to be good because he is still able to make precise finishing when there is a good pass from his teammates and that has really been seen again this season in Barcelona. I even thought that Lewandowski could be the top scorer this season if he still consistently scores goals in every match as long as he is still supported by his teammates and also with the tactics of coach Flick which he has been able to master well during this season.

I think Real Madrid were better last season, and that was Real Madrid playing without Mbappe, if Mbappe doesn't manage to prove his quality to the public in the near future, I think everyone will have the same opinion as me.
Is it entirely Mbappe fault? Why not just blame Ancelotti who has clearly failed many times because his strategy was caught offside but still forced the same scheme. Actually this is not only an individual's fault but several Madrid players are also responsible for their fragile midfield and lack of clarity in playing their roles once again without Modric making Madrid midfielders messy. Carvajal absence also affects the stability of the defense and with a goalkeeper other than Courtois being a complement why Madrid easily conceded.
I also assume that Real Madrid is far more consistent last season with their strategies and consistent in the catastrophe against each of its enemies, this is not only about Mbappe that causes the defeat of Real Madrid but indeed they are currently quite confused in making their game strategies, fragile and easy Cut by the opposing team to do the counter, Real Madrid players have good quality, but the strategy applied is still the same and it should indeed be improved to maximize their abilities, because even good players will not be useful if their strategy is easily read by the team other.

The defeats against Milan and Barcelona both have similarities in terms of what causes and problems for Real Madrid, namely the attack line that is less creative in building attacks, they only focus on building from the right and left sides, and the loss of Kross is very noticeable Real Madrid's midfield is helpless without him, besides their defense is also very bad Real Madrid's chaos is almost in all lines. Ancelotti must act immediately to overhaul the formation that is currently not working well.

Defensively, Real Madrid faces challenges that require urgent attention. Their defense has shown weaknesses, and Ancelotti should prioritize strengthening the back line in the upcoming transfer window. Acquiring defenders who can bring stability and resilience to Madrid’s defense would be crucial to making the team more competitive.

If Madrid can address these areas, they have a good chance of catching up with Barcelona and even competing for the La Liga title.

I do not agree with some of your takes,  but then, they should start with the head manager and his tactics. If there's no improvement,  he should be shown the exit because its a huge irk having such a great squad of players and not be able to utilize them well? Kylain Mbappe is not the issue for Real Madrid so much attention on him to buy more time for Carlo Ancelotti. Also, tue absence of Toni Kroos has affected them, can they can a good ball organiser as him? I'll keep my thing brief but, getting Arnold as a replacement for Dani Carvajal weak asf.
