@UTDtwo What do you mean that you’re instructed to use him whether he performs or not? Are you telling us that in your contract to be Madrid‘a manager, you didn’t state that making decisions on whether a player plays a match should be your sole responsibility?

🚨Hansi Flick on Barcelona’s 2-1 defeat to Real Madrid in El Clásico:
🗣️ Hansi Flick: “ i don’t usually enjoy coming here to explain defeats, especially when we have been on a good run. We knew exactly how we wanted to hurt Madrid, where the spaces would be, and how we wanted to control the game. The plans were there, the tactics were there, but football doesn’t always reward you for preparing well.
“One player who impressed me enormously was Diomande. I don’t usually sit here praising players from other teams after losing, but this boy is special. He plays with incredible discipline and courage!
“Before tonight, when we played El Clásico, we often tried to exploit the left side through Vinícius. We knew there were moments when he wouldn’t track back consistently, which meant Lamine could put the left-back under pressure and force Madrid to defend deeper. We wanted to create that same problem tonight, but Diomande changed everything.
“This boy gives you no easy decisions. He tracks back, wins his duels, carries the ball forward, dribbles past players and then has the intelligence to find the right pass. You attack him, he defends. You give him space, he attacks you. You try to isolate him, and suddenly he’s bringing another player into the game.
“Honestly, it was frustrating because every time we thought we had found a weakness, he recovered and closed the space. Lamine had to work much harder than we expected, and that affected some of the attacking situations we usually create.
“But I don’t want to take anything away from Madrid. They defended their advantages well, punished our mistakes and showed why these games are decided by the smallest details. We had opportunities to change the result, but we didn’t take enough of them.
“We lost 2-1, and that hurts. But tonight also reminded me that you cannot prepare for Real Madrid by studying only their biggest stars. Sometimes, the player who destroys your entire tactical plan is the one you didn’t expect to become the difference. Diomande was that player tonight, and we have to learn from it.”
To all Real Madrid fans,
We can never forget this moment from t he el clasico of yesterday.
So sweet. So beautiful. So memorable.
I love this club with all of my heart 🤍
