The German In Catalan Part2

Source

Good day, everyone, and welcome to my blog. FC Barcelona and injuries have been a normal thing for the past three seasons now, and it has been frustrating for all Barcelona fans and the club board. FC Barcelona fans have complained that trophyless last season for Barcelona was due to the squad missing out on important key players which is true because if Barcelona's squad was 100 percent free from injury last season might have turned out different, but Xavi claims if not having a top quality squad seems to have gone down the rug with what Hansi Flick has done in his opening six matches in La Liga.

Hansi Flick has done incredibly well so far for me, and I don't have doubts that he has transformed this Barcelona team into a fearless and competitive team that we all used to know during the time of Messi and other incredible players in Barcelona during that period. Barcelona's injury list increases as Marc Andre Ter Stegen picked up a knee injury last weekend in Barcelona away from the home match against Villareal. It is a huge blow for the squad losing the number one goalkeeper for the team in the early starts of the new season.

Barcelona now has Ter Stegen, Ronald Araujo, Dani Olmo, Gavi, Frenkie De Jong, Bernal, Andres Christensen, and Fermin Lopez, who are all out of action, and their return day is yet to be confirmed, but do you know the interesting part is that Hansi Flick has been able to win matches without these players which is incredible and I can't help but wonder what will happen if all these players are to be available under Hansi Flick. The German could cause more havoc for any team playing against Barcelona this season.

Hansi Flick's style of football is just direct as he wants the players to keep a high-pressure intensity game for 90 minutes straight. Raphinha who has been impressive since the start of the season is the embodiment of Hansi Flick's style of football because the Brazilian keeps on putting pressure on the opposition defense for the full 90 minutes and I sometimes wonder if Raphinha doesn't get tired from all the running he does on the pitch because even in the 86th you will still see Raphinha charging down the opposition defense with full energy in his legs.

Raphinha has to be one of the most criticized players since he joined the club and was closed leaving during the summer window but he turned down huge offers from Saudi Arabia and was willing to stay at the club. Hansi Flick even confirmed that when he first came to Barcelona, he saw Raphinha's work rate and decided he wanted him at the club, and we are seeing the rest play out. Raphinha is an incredible player, he plays for the badge like his life depends on it and that is what playing for Barcelona should feel like for every player because it is a big opportunity.

The Hansi Flick era will be an incredible time for Barcelona fans, and I am not missing out on every moment of it. FC Barcelona will keep their home game against Getafe soon. Hopefully, the boys go for the win and claim all three points. So, guys, that will be all for now. Thanks for stopping by, and have a good day.
