Hansi Flick is really trying for Barcelona. Currently, Barcelona's performance is on another level that most of us did not expect this season. Everyone was thinking that Real Madrid would be the one to be at the top of the spot, but unfortunately Barcelona took over under the management of Hansi Flick. Although some Real Madrid key players are inured that maybe the reason why their performance is not in good condition, I also hope Barcelona people will continue like this till the end of the season; they will surely be the champions of the league this season. 

Real Madrid lost against losc in the second match of the Champions League. After being unbeaten for 36 consecutive matches, they finally lost in this Champions League match. In the beginning, Real Madrid made several attacks and they created chances to score, but they did not succeed in scoring. Towards the end of the first half they found themselves trailing 1-0 on penalties to LosC. We have seen before that Real Madrid fell behind in the first half and then came back brilliantly in the second half but nothing like that happened in this match. 
After being in such great form and not being able to win against losc with a good team is really a pain for real madrid fans like myself.

It must be admitted that Barcelona performance since being coached by Flick has improved rapidly, but he is still not fully able to reset Barcelona into a club that its opponents fear. Despite being able to score 31 goals from 10 matches since the start of the season, they have already conceded 11 goals, with a ratio of 1.1 goals per match, the weakness of the defensive area is a serious problem that must be anticipated. Defense is one of the keys to continuing to compete for trophies, Hansi Flick must see this as something that needs to be resolved immediately.

Hansi Flick must maximize the available squad, there is no other choice and also cannot complain about the situation he is facing, because from the start he certainly knew what he would feel when he accepted Barcelona's offer to handle this team. For now, Barcelona is still fine, even though they felt their first defeat this season when facing Osasuna, but that doesn't mean we can say they are bad. Because anything can happen in every match, and even if you look at the statistics that occurred in that match, they actually didn't play badly, maybe luck wasn't on their side in that match. They can also immediately bounce back in their Champions League match by winning big over their opponents.

Flick is an excellent coach, and I look forward to seeing his performance with Barcelona this season, as no one expects Barcelona to be in top shape but their fans. And they started this season with unbeaten strike know one as win them in the league expect last week that he batch some key players because of the Champions League competition thinking he will get the change and defeat osasuna even without the key players in the pitch and he failed and osasuna get the chance and win them in the match, but he knows that he made a big mistake but sees he as apologies meaning he won't try such mistakes in the league again, and Bayern Munic against Barcelona, i can't predict it anymore since Barcelona as improved very well and anything can happen because Aston Villa as get the chance and defeat Munich so I think Barcelona can get the same opportunity and defeat Bayern Munich too, since Barcelona are Playing in the camp nou and they are performing great at home they won't like to lose there first game in the ucl at home.


You are correct, any club can lose because you cannot keep winning games and believing they cannot defeat you. One day, you will undoubtedly lose a match. Lille is playing at home and they defend well at home, so if not for the penalty, I am sure the game will be a draw because Real Madrid did well in the game but did not have the opportunity to break their defence and score goals. But the coach needs to start with the first eleven in the match, but he didn't. He needs to know which match he will be starting with Guler since he doesn't have the strength to play enough, so he should be starting from the second half but i think because of Rodrygo is not around that is why Ancelotti rotate the squad. I am confident that Madrid will qualify for the next round despite their initial loss, they still have four matches to play in the UCL and they will not try to lose them.

Real Madrid did not play badly, as usual they always dominated the course of the match over their opponents, including in the match against Lille last night, Ancelotti's troops had many opportunities, it's just that Lille's goalkeeper at that time was in his best form, L. Chevalier made many crucial saves, seen in the final minutes the Madrid players were frustrated by this goalkeeper.
What is clear as you said some of us would not have expected this final result, but
This defeat will not make Real Madrid slump there are still 6 matches to be played by them in the UCL competition, the chance to advance to the next phase is still high.
Regarding Bayern Munich, isn't their opponent Aston Villa if we are talking about UCL?

Not being available in an adequate squad will make it a little difficult for Flick to rotate and that is also done when several players are injured. To maintain consistency is not easy because Barcelona must be able to play a much better match in terms of title contenders, but on the other hand many clubs will also do the same. If Osasuna can beat Barcelona easily then it is possible that other clubs can do it too.

This is what Flick must avoid so that his team does not lose the opportunity to compete for the title this season. It is not easy to avoid injuries, especially if the main players are forced to play all the time and the depth of the squad will be a reference when injuries occur to the main players.

The simulation in the Football Manager game cannot be compared to managing a club in the real world, i ask you, when you play Football Manager, are there external elements such as a fan base there?

In a real club, they have to think about this one element, if the team is doing badly, the fan base will not like it, besides, staying in the top league is a good thing, because it can get attention. It will be good for all aspects, so all your words make no sense to me.

Robert Lewandowski is really doing well this year, I like this player a lot

Barcelona is competitive but they are vastly categorized as ghost club when we're talking about the UEFA Champions League, not available for the big games. Perhaps the odds of a change this season in UEFA Champions League is maximize. The board and the president, Joan Laporta not gigging up for new phase of development and projects.

The current coach, Hansi Flick is experienced coach but do we trust him to be a longevity coach for Blaugrana? Moreover we can't hop into the actual aspect of believing him to become successful in Camp Nou during his era as manager. Remember, other ex-barca coaches did the same thing, Luis Enrique have great time as coach, Ronald Koeman, Xavi Hernandez and we all know how they ended up with the club, definitely the path didn't go as planned. These ex coaches getting sacked by the board, why? Incompetency and other complications that linked up to the retracement of stellar performance.

Barcelona are competitive, and they will face Bayern Munich in the next round of UEFA Champions League, this game is completely huge test for Hansi Flick, we would want to see if he's man enough to handled his previous club or will bend to defeats as other coaches did over the decades.

It was an unexpected loss for Real Madrid yesterday, but that is football. Real Madrid was unable to launch their typical offensive because Lille was able to exert pressure on them. In sports, there are days when things do not go as planned, and a coach may not know why. There is no reason for concern as Bayern Munich also suffered a defeat to West Ham. Some fans had high hopes for the French player and believe he should have scored a lot more goals by now. However, he has fallen short of their expectations. But he has not disappointed and will continue to improve in the future. 

It is very unfair for us to judge Hansi Flick's performance from the results they will get when they play against Bayern Munich later.
We have to look at the whole thing and it cannot be denied that Hansi Flick has been quite successful in making changes that are much better for Barcelona's current performance and even what has been achieved or Barcelona's current performance exceeds many people's expectations, so I think that has been proof for Hansi Flick.

For the match against Bayern in the Champion League match later, it will definitely be very difficult for Barcelona, ​​but if we look at the overall strength of both teams this season, I am quite sure that Barcelona will be able to match Bayern's performance regardless of the results later.

When will Barcelona handle Bayern Munich this season? Because the match won by Barcelona yesterday was when handling Young Boys at home. While for the next match in the Champions League, they will meet Bayern Munich so Barcelona needs to win in order to avenge their revenge that happened in 2020 when Bayern Munich won with a fairly large score (2-8). So Hansi Flick's proof as a great coach will happen when Barcelona meets Bayern Munich at the end of this month because that is a team that deserves to be defeated by Barcelona as their own proof so that they can be considered to have improved this season.

The impressive performance shown by Barcelona since the beginning of this season cannot be separated from the genius of Hansi Flick, he managed to fix the team's weaknesses by maximizing the available players and giving young players the opportunity to show their talents. He also gave instructions to his players to improve their physical condition and adjust their game strategy so that they are able to pressure their opponents and maintain a stable game rhythm throughout the match.

Barcelona is very lucky to be able to sign Hansi Flick, besides being a great figure in managing the team, he also does not demand many new players, only Dani Olmo and Pau Victor (previously played with Barcelona B as a loan player) as additional ammunition in his squad this season. The opportunity to win the La Liga trophy is very open if Barcelona can maintain its performance, but I am not sure he can achieve success in the UCL because in the next few matches they will face strong teams such as Bayern Munich, Dortmund and Benfica.

Yes, Mbappe's quality will not be hindered by anything, because his play on the field proves it all. So even though PSG is trying to prevent Mbappe from going to Real Madrid by trying to give a bad stigma about Mbappe, the Real Madrid analysis team is not stupid, they know what kind of potential Mbappe has. That's why Real Madrid still wants Mbappe even though they have failed several times to bring him.

Then there is the matter of Mbappe's attitude and habits, which are very similar to Ronaldo. I think it's clear that Mbappe has always been a big fan of Ronaldo. So when he chose to join Real Madrid, he just wanted to follow in Ronaldo's footsteps. Therefore, it is not strange for me personally to see Mbappe often imitating Ronaldo's characteristics or habits, such as when Mbappe conducted an introductory session in front of Real Madrid supporters.

But fortunately Mbappe has great skills like Ronaldo, so I don't think anyone will have a problem with this (copying Ronaldo's habits), because Mbappe also has extraordinary skills in playing football. Because it is proven that now Mbappe has started to become an extraordinary goal scorer for Real Madrid. And maybe in the future Mbappe wants to get the same achievements as Ronaldo got at Real Madrid.

Hansi Flick capacity as a great coach is indeed unquestionable and he has proven it when handling Bayer Munich. Seeing Barcelona's current achievements is truly extraordinary, especially Barcelona's situation which is still difficult due to the financial crisis, but Hansi Flick was able to bring Barcelona up from the slump with a squad that is strengthened by many young players. I am sure that if Hansi Flick can maintain the current consistency, then there is a big chance that Barcelona will become La Liga champions with its young players.

Madrid ended their positive trend without being beaten in 14 matches in the Champions League, although in that match Ancelotti did a little rotation in front by playing Endrick from the first minute, but I think that was not the cause of their defeat in that match because indeed we know what the quality of players that Madrid has at the moment, in terms of the game clearly we can see if actually Madrid can dominate but the defense built by Lille is very tight and makes every attack that Madrid builds can be broken, I think when Mbappe is played in the second half then we will see Madrid game improve but to be honest there is no change happening, the defeat to Lille should be a warning for Ancelotti if at this time their journey will not be as smooth as usual in the Champions League, the new format of the Champions League this season has really made many teams lose their form due to the tight schedule, but to be honest I hope that the defeat to Lille in the Champions League will not affect their mentality later in La Liga.

Winning and losing in a match is a common thing that happens not only to Real Madrid but other teams that have the best players and performance can also lose or draw. Real Madrid are currently not showing their best performance even though they have brought in a goal-scoring machine like Mbappe from yesterday's match.
Carlo Ancelotti has to change the line-up to be able to match the game like last year. Whether in the next match Carlo Ancelotti can give Real Madrid a win and be able to top the La Liga standings displacing Barca.

With your words this indirectly your previous quote becomes less valid because you break your opinion so we must agree that in the end their financial problems although definitely hampering performance but when a coach is above average will still be able to give at least 1 trophy and that has also been done by Xavi especially as I stated earlier even though their financial situation is bad but in the end the top 5 salaries of European players in the 5 major competitions 2 of them are Barcelona players which makes this mind blowing

Talking about the depth of the squad even though the majority of the players are musa but the experience also cannot be doubted because they have experience that is even much better than some other players in La Liga especially there are some senior pain Eperti Lewa or Ter Stegen even though he is currently injured but he is one of the players who has experience that can be channeled and shared with young players.

Yes I also think so I am also not sure Barcelona will continue to perform consistently by winning continuously I think they will experience at least some draws and some defeats but maybe that happens when Barcelona meets Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid which will be a big match in La Liga and Hansi Flick must face the tough challenge if Barcelona can beat Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid in their meeting later then it will widen the gap between them and Barcelona can breathe a sigh of relief but if Barcelona is defeated by Real Madrid it will make the competition in La Liga even fiercer and it is difficult to predict who will win it.
