Hansi Flick still hasn’t unlocked the real Gavi yet Everyone worships his pressing because they’re blinded by noise. I see something far more dangerous, a controller with the technique of Iniesta and rage of Gattuso Built to dominate the flow of football itself #FCB a Thread

Xavi Espert passed the (elite winger) Kvara test. Kid's biomechanics are exceptional. His lowered centre of gravity, natural leverage, and ability to absorb contact allow him to maintain balance. Throw him right at Diomande come El Clásico now.
Espart vs Kvara& Doue..

An #8, defends wide zones with absurd tekky execution.

Pedri… 🤷‍♂️

The first 15 minutes of that second half were the best football Flick has ever coached. Barca looked genuinely untouchable. Then everything fell apart. The real question is what changed after those first 15 minutes.

There were so many positives from this game. The more I read the reactions to the aftermath, the more confused I get. We played some really good football for large parts. And this was without Pedri and Rodri playing a single minute together.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are sometimes playing an entirely different sport. That's how vast the difference has been between Flick & Mourinho. So there is a clear favourite for this Clasico... And yet, it won't be as easy as that. 5k words, tactics, data & predictions below 👇

Gordon hasn't lost his burst, not yet. But real ones know what Adeyemi would’ve done to this old head in a straight-up foot race. He will be left in the dust.

He could've hurt PSG. Hakimi had a field day with Cancelo/Gordon unpentrable trait on the flank.

Can we just sign Declan Rice and make him our primary RB already? Flick would have a field day for life.

The only metric Doué had over Lamine last night was xG generation. Lamine was superior creatively, defensively, and in his all-round game. But these brain-dead agenda suckered will cherry-pick one metric & pretend it settles their inability to analyse football.

Pedri has somehow lost his KDB-esque killer instinct in big moments. Six minutes in, one pass could’ve killed the game, but he chose to drive through the half-spaces for a predictable, blockable shot. Today, he played to prove a point, not to win the game. And that’s the problem.

Raphinha is ridiculously sacred, ngl. I recall the play; how do you butcher a 4v2 and escape the same scrutiny Gordon gets? He spent the entire game doing dribbling gimmicks and missed 2-3 big chances, yet somehow Gordon is catching strays. The double standards are shameless.

We signed Joan Gracia for nights like this. Do your thing, champ.

Cancelo is literally Barça’s Dimarco. His defensive prowess is never coming back. That version of him is gone forever.

We dog-walked a fully fit PSG XI with Bernal and a Cancelo/Espart-type inverted fullback, I don’t wanna hear a word in my TL. Let the Flick tactically superior brilliance speak All we need right now to conquer Europe is come January:
