@TheFootbalGuru@okokokLFC@NealGardner_ It's not irrelevant. It takes time and effort to gain experience under a system which Cubarsi already has. Van Dijk would need to do a lot to catch up and by then his age would be a problem. It's this assumption that it's a one size fits all when it's not at all.
@TheFootbalGuru@okokokLFC@NealGardner_ Do I really need to explain the nuance here? Flick's highline have different style, mechanisms and pattern resulting from press upfront. Again, the keyword here is Flick's highline, system etc. He has 2 years of experience playing under Flick. That's it lol.
@BouafifNour Because some people doesn't understand nuances. Or try to comprehend the actual game instead they go directly to match rating apps and assess players based on the criteria alone ๐ญ
@DaniBeltessazar@_TheRedTower_@BouafifNour Calm down yo. This is just me expressing my own preference and not a direct response to you.
Execution is the other part, but without proper personnel you cannot do the โexecution" part. He already done this when he won a sextuple in Bayern.
@loversofgenius@11synergy That's the point of the post tho. It's his weakness but at the same time his strength. Him keeping the ball and recycling it does more good than his hesitation to take on his man.
@_TheRedTower_@DaniBeltessazar@BouafifNour My thoughts exactly. It's a matter of perspective and philosophy but I'd rather watch Flick's tactics than whatever Atleti endures with Simeone for more than a decade.
@DaniBeltessazar@BouafifNour And Barca responded by starving Atleti the ball which neutralized their attacking threat in the second half. Once Fermin scored the second goal, Barca kept the possession and played conservatively. Totally an adjustment from Flick. Hence, the better team won.
@DiopMohamm61051@fiaz1899@thatmadridguy__ You cannot claim he's a hypocrite when you also celebrate the same pettiness. You love it when your players do it, but absolutely hate it when it's your rival.
@DaniBeltessazar@BouafifNour Because that's the same system that generates more chances. Flick is just keeping alive Barca's culture of attacking football. Barca has always employed a high line because this is the club's identity, attacking football. You cannot have everything all at ONCE.
