Why Hansi Flick is ‘not confident’ in Barcelona’s squad | OneFootball

Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick is growing increasingly concerned by the attitude of his players for the season ahead.

That’s according to Diario Sport, who have on Sunday provided an insight into the situation.

Barcelona of course got the defence of their La Liga crown up and running yesterday evening, in a meeting with RCD Mallorca.

And though the Blaugrana ultimately emerged dominant victors, boss Flick was far from satisfied.

Speaking to the media on the back of the full-time whistle at Son Moix, the German tactician admitted:

“I am not happy with the way we played the 2nd-half. My team played at 50% to 60%, and this is not acceptable against nine men. I need to speak to the players.”

And if the latest word stemming from the media 24 hours on is anything to go by, then this is not a new concern for Flick and his staff.

As per a report from Sport:

‘Flick has been a bit worried during the pre-season. The German coach is not confident in how the team is and believes that there could be some relaxation in a squad that looks far superior to the rivals, especially in La Liga.’
