Hansi Flick has just crossed his first dark week on the bench of FC Barcelona. While the Catalans were expected after a defeat on his own lawn during the shock against Paris Saint-Germain, they completely missed against the Seville FC, even hosting a humiliation on the score of 4-1 at the Sánchez Pizjuán. Certainly diminished due to many physical seeds, the Blaugrana club was however not spared by the local press, which pointed out the first gaps in the formation of Hansi Flick.
“Barça has billed”titled Mundo Deportivoexplaining that it was Sunday evening of the worst Barça of the Flick era. “Barça should have learned from defeat against PSG, but it did not do it. Seville, like PSG, has once again broken the transmission belt, the team's supply system ”explains the local newspaper, pointing to the services of Dani Olmo, clearly not at the level and Robert Lewandowski, in difficulty and author of a completely missed penalty.
The Spanish press is unanimous
Same bell sound on the side of Sportwhich evokes an inexcusable defeat, by reading several points explaining this rout in Andalusia. Also pointing to the efficiency of Lewandowski in front of the goal: “He is going through a difficult period: his failure on penalty illustrates an obvious lack of confidence, problematic for an attacker of his caliber despite all his experience”. As well as a big defensive fever and players not at the team level: “Barça suffers terribly from the absence of Iñigo Martínez. The Basque was the defense boss, capable of raising the block, directing the line and forming a solid pair with Cubarsí ”.
A feeling that has returned to Spain, because “Despite having accumulated many victories at the start of the season, the fact is that they have always collected goals”indicates the Cadena Cope. Secondly from Liga and two points from Real Madrid, FC Barcelona does not really have to worry for the moment, but will have to come back much more solid after the international break, where it will have to reassure against Olympiacos, in the Champions League, before a clasico against Real Madrid, at the end of October.
