Since his arrival at Barcelona this summer, Hansi Flick has managed to create a positive working atmosphere within his workforce. It can be seen in particular in the results of the Catalan club, which shines and improves match after match. If there is one thing that the German technician does not laugh about, however, it is the delays. In an interview given to the show Martinez and Hermanos for the Spanish channel CuatroPedri admitted that Jules Koundé had been sanctioned for being late for training.
“ Every coach has his punishments. With Xavi, it was about fines doubling every minute. The money from the fines was used to pay for meals and we generally donated it to associations. With Flick, it’s no longer like that: if you’re late, you don’t play. For me, not playing is worse. This is what happened with (Jules) Koundé against Alavés (October 6, 0-3) », blurted Pedri. Each coach has his own method.
