You have to feel for Pena. The guy has stepped in and done overall a good job and then he gets benched. Szczesny was the best fill in we could have hoped for with Ter Stegen being gone for the entire season, but Pena did help us win some huge matches against Real Madrid & Bayern, plus most of the entire first half. Our losses were due to lack of offensive output due to let downs against the lower level teams.

@@LanAquatics He's only played a few games after not playing for over half a year. The only way to pick up your form and consistency is by playing more.

The 22 of u who liked this comment are dumb and know nothing about football .Rashford will bring sooo much to our team .The coach wants his presence, Rashford is faster than raphina and his first touch is better aswell.Rashford needs motivation and to be part of a good project ,Manu demotivated their fans ,imagine fr the players ,ge doesn't have the same passion.

@atibarodriguez2.0 Rashford has been there for fucking years and had 1 decent season Many managers at united have said that he doesn't put any effort in training and is not disciplined He literally missed a game because he was out drinking in a night club the night before a game And let's not speak about the fact that he allegedly has been leaking stuff to the media from the dressing room for years. He should stay the fuck away from this club. And no way does he have a better touch than Raphinha lol and he is slower now too
@@juliouribe2924 he doesn't press he doesn't defend he doesn't run he doesn't make runs. 4 things that are a must have in this Flick system and let's not talk about the attitude problems He had like 6 managers and failed all of them. And when more than 3 managers come out and criticize you infront of the media and fans wanting you gone then maybe your the problem not them.
@ Lets take Sancho as an Example, how good he did motivated on his return with Dortmund? in comparison to not even playing with United. That Club has been a dumpster fire for the past 10+ years. I will not want to play for that club. He was great under Mourinho, Maybe he just need a change of scenery.
Frenkieeee de Jong! Thanks Jamie for addressing a GREAT barca player:). At all my fellow barca fans that dont like the jong: when someone makes a deal with you that involves money, you have to pay up. Thats how the world works. In no circumstance this person should be forced to lower the price after both parties sign the deal…
Okay its not only the wages tho i love him as a player but hes not even commited to the club hasnt renewed or even talked to the club and hea supposed to be out captain? Send him on his way we want players who do anything for the badge
@@RonRon0110he already did that when he deferred his salary in the pandemic to help the club now we are whinning about having to pay him his money imagine if he had said "i dont care pay me my money" when the club was basically insolvent then fans like u would be attacking him. How would u feel about a club that u told u wanted to stay consistently putting out rumours about selling u and shaming u about the contract they gave u when u did them a favour during the pandemic? Probably not very enthusiastic about the club.
@@RonRon0110 his value has massively decreased after those injuries. I understand him and his agent. Get some games in first and show the staff and board what you’re worth. And then -> negotiate! Why would you negotiate directly coming of an injury when your value is low…
No he isnt. Either way I would rather have a player who can run out the blocks in this extreme high line than a shot stopper who gives away a goal per game from stupid runs out the box. He is also a pen and red card risk.
I lost it with peña after the getafe game... one shot on target always results in a goal, some should even be routine saves like the free kick from rodrygo in the super cup
People fail to see that Szczesny is making some plays that Pena wouldn't even attempt. He maybe he is proactive in some situations but it's because he's not fully in the game rythm yet.
Szczesny started because he needed this to keep his confidence up, looking at what happened in midweek against Benfica if Flick benched him it will destroy his confidence. This was brilliant from Flick. Let's not pretend, Szczesny was going to start at some point. Szczesny has the experience and expertise and we are in the most important moment of the season. Szczesny needs games to boost his confidence and also adapt to the highline. Trust me Pena hasn't been bad but he hasn't been great either.
8:57 Frenkie was the one I observed the most and I am happy to report that he seem to be learning and adapting FINALLY to what is important in a Barça midfield, no matter the coach. He has not been holding on to the ball too long and attempt his vertical drives, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT and once he continues like this and improves, it will become hard to keep him out the starting lineup, but great, we'll have good rotations. His drives will be important at times, AT TIMES, it HAS to be a situation where it's a high press and he has to use it to bring the ball forward but HE NEEDS COVERAGE IN CASE HE LOSES THE BALL.
One thing that makes me happy about this Barcelona team is that even when we rotate and rest our players they'll still win conveniently and we also need to be giving this kind performance against the low block team then we are good to go and Szcesny been the main keeper isn't a problem but he needs to work on his timing when coming out of his position to avoid unnecessary foul and card but it's like he never adapt with the high line stuff,,, even if we don't win any trophies this season the squad has already shown a glimpse of bright future that by next season they'll be unstoppable and scary...we go again on Wednesday‼️ Vamos Barcelona 🔵🔴🔵🔴💯
For low block we need wingers which will make crosses into the box to Lewandowski. So far this is where Barca is quite poor. Only Kounde and Balde do it, but we need better quality crosses. I wish Lamine did them more often from the deep right, but we still need left winger that can deliver similarly
Reactionary fans. But the only real 'problem' is he wasn't delivering enough to justify his wages. If he plays like this against all competition then everyone will want him to stay.
It’s not that fans want him to leave, it’s more the fact that his contract is running out soon and he’s showing no urgency at all to renew it. So wed rather sell him now for money than lose him for free. I hope he stays, i hope he renews. But so far, he hasn’t shown that desire too. So that’s where the frustration comes from.
Good to see someone highlight Pau Curbasi's talent. For me, this guy is every bit as talented as Lamine Yamal, just on the opposite end of the pitch. Passing aside, his defensive ability is evident to see. He loves getting into challenges and one-on-ones. Just hope he continues to develop and also grow physically to improve his physicality and speed. There is a generational talent in Lamine, and there is another generational talent in Pau. Let's hope they both develop and not get hampered by injuries.
7:29 no one doubts Fermin quality and that he is a good asset to the team. Issue he has is, Olmo is ahead of him and we have seen where Gavi is too and he is not ideal playing out of position on either wing, he MUST be CAM or at least an interior LCM/RCM. No matter how well he plays, he wont be ahead of Gavi because Gavi stature is very high in comparison. I personally do not prefer Gavi at CAM in high profile games or especially teams with low block, he is not the creative to type to break such defenses consistently. Fermin short on that too, he is best when he has space to run in to.
This whole Rashford situation reminds me of Aubamayang with his situation with Arsenal. I think Rashford would step up and give his all for us if he were to come like Auba but yes its a Gamble
no it is not even slightly similar. Aubameyang was good and just had issues with his age and manager. Trashford is just trash and almost every season of his life proved it. Also Idk about Trashford giving his all, he has not done that in ages and I'm talking 4+ years.
I think Flick rates Szczesny's over Pena because of his ball distribution and his ability to sometimes find a pass after sweeping to maintain possession of the ball while Pena always clears it, and I think Flick is banking on Szczesny to learn how to position himself, judge the flight of the ball in behind, etc to properly sweep. IMO next summer we should go for Unai Simon, he can sweep, pass decently, and shot stop, he fit's the system well and he's capped with Spanish national team so he can link up with the others in the team and he knows the league well so there isn't a lack of experience and he's around his peak years.
To be honest, Szczesny is more suitable for La Liga where teams sit deep and look to take us out on Counter because he is a great Shot stopper and can give us some important saves which can give us wins instead of draws. On the other hand, Pena should play in the Champions League and cup competitions where the games are more open and we need a proper sweeper keeper behind that high line
Pena has been really solid for us to be honest and he didn't make any mistake this season either. It's really harsh for him. It could have been his season just like Lunin had last year.
So when a player is benched for another to play it is called Harshness? Players rotation only makes a team better in all aspects. I hope he also continue the rotation when MAT comes back. Getting every player involved is the way forward.
I think with Sczeczny it's more about the confidence that he has in his abilities, due to his maturity and experience. Mind you, even when he conceded 4 goals against Benfica there wasn't any sign of a loss in confidence in him. In fact, he owned up to his mistakes and took accountability after the match. So I think it's a mixture of confidence, positive energy that he may have brought, and a little bit of superstition as well from Flick, especially because he said they haven't lost a game with him on the pitch😅
Nope. It’s not about his form, but lack of intensity for whatever reason. Guy was walking most of the time, not trying too much to retrieve the ball. Wasn’t once but every time he played. No one who doesn’t press will be playing in Flicks team. Perhaps Ansu thinks he’s Messi and allowed to do so.
@@whitecrowuk575you’re making things up buddy. Ansu has played about 90 minutes this season and every time he’s come on he has attacked the ball. You could say the same about ferran but flick has been patient with him and it’s paying off. Obviously he doesn’t think he’s Messi. And he deserves game time.
@ I suggest rewatch games he played again . I wished him to get in form but after seeing how he didn’t press almost at all and when he did with little intensity. Do you think why Flick stopped subbing him? Precisely that’s why. Not because he wasn’t scoring, Ferran at the time wasn’t particularly shining either - but was pressing much better.
Eric is a great ball playing defender, alongside cubarsi, while inigo is injured and in that aspect, he can do more than araujo. Araujo is a beast don’t get me wrong, but he needs to improve his ball circulation and passing. In a team that plays so high, we really need ball playing CBs ❤️💙
H hasn’t been bad this season except for the Monaco game which was MATS fault these reactionary fans just think he’s deadwood due his performances in his first season
@Raphinha_X_Yamal he's been a great utility player and has had solid performances as 6. Girona even used him as fullback and he had a great run of form.
Flick loves chaos, he uses that to trick the opponent to believe they can make things happen. Then boom they are 3 goals down. Hence his decision to play Szczesny. It’s a similar reason as the high line. Psychology!!!
17:45 I dont care about Rashford current level in training. The player WANTS to leave, we saw it with Aubemayeng and once he stepped through the doors at Barça he became a complete new and reenergized man!
Szczensy need more time to get used to team and playing in high line and I think Hansi has realized this, he wants to bring him up to speed to build his confidence. This is my opinion only
@@thearmy9326yea I think he has a lot rust to shake off and its even more the case with this high line. he said himself he has never played with his defenders that far away from him and it shows. He looks overzealous almost fearful being a in a 1v1 from a long ball that might beat the high line 😂. the only way to get his rust shaken off and get his bearings calibrated is more games because he will have to play at some point and you want him up to speed. I think he should start again against Atalanta since we dont have anything to lose.
I think the pressure is much higher when you are talented and getting bought for money. Because then you have to deliver for your price tag. But when you came from academy, you earn not much money, nobody put pressure on you. And then your environment is familar to you. Barcas concept of growing youth is such a perfect example how players grow up.
I think Hansi should try this formula whenever we meet with less pressure team. The players might be earger to win as compare to when the strongest team is used.
I think flick knows like us all fans that pena is shit and can’t be trusted. That’s why he’s trying to get Szczesny into his best so he doesn’t have to rely on Pena.
in my opinion Pena seems more constant, but he also plays a lot. You can't have consistency if you don't play. I think Flick had to start Szczesny to give him confidence after he looked a bit out of shape in his games. By playing him he also gave the squad the opportunity to get more confident with Szczesny as the last man on the field.
3:33 we know all of this, but his problem is when he is actually put under pressure, he bottles and makes errors. But if he can come in to games like these and give players a rest, no problem.
ERIC PLAYER BETTER THAN ARUJO DID AGAINST BENFICA AND THATS WHY WE SCORED 7 GOALS BECAUSE OUR ATTACK STARTED FROM THE BACK EVERY SINGLE TIME WE DID ATTACK VISCAAAAAAA BARCAAAAAA ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just check the entire press conference man. He told that they are equally good, tek has strong points and weak points so does Pena. But he said that it’s a feeling, I think he also ment composure. Because as a lot of fans have noticed, Pena is kind of unsure and feels nervy. And I totally agree with that, and let’s not forget Tek just got back and is playing in an entire new defense and playingstyle. Give the guy some time.
Szczesny! It’s like investing in the stock markets. You don’t know which one is the best for sure but you have to let the investor choose and go with the best odds of winning at the end. I think that Flick really wants to win CL and want to make that bet. It’s not a crazy bet considering the fact that Szczesny was one of the best goalkeepers in the world his entire career and possibly just need a few more games to get into the right rhythm
The mid-field trio [Frenkie, Fermin, Casado] does work ... Another option [Pedri, Olmo, Gavi] ... with [Pablo, Toni, Noah] on the bench. Flick just needs to find the right 2 combinations ... not playing 3 toothless mid-fielders [Pedri, Gavi, Casado] !!
I feel we will get a repeat of the Aubameyang situation with rashford I believe rashford could still be a very important player because just 2seasons ago he was scoring goals for fun,averaging a goal every game. I just feel he has lost it with man united and also his relationship with Amorim has hit rock bottom .
WOW!!! Thank you so much my friend, that’s absolutely incredible, wow! I will definitely speak in some detail about this tomorrow - I thought it was very interesting… 😉 Thanks for the amazing support!!
And who doesn’t make mistake ? Pena might be good sweeper but he makes mistakes too give the man a chance for God sake .. I would in form Szeszney over Pena anyday anytime
Has not made a mistake this season. The goals he conceded where 100% chances because the team showed no intensity and gave the opponente miles of space@@richardedet2718
Szczesny will only get better from here, he’s not used to the sweeper keeper role, his peak version at juventus used to play very defensively unlikely how Barca plays now. He’s still learning
We've seen many players in the situation of rashford come to Barca recently and excel. Auba, cancelo, Felix just to name a few. Most of the time a change of scenery is needed for the player to get back to their best. Hopefully that's the case with rashford.
To be honest it should have been Flick in the first place who should have called Pablo Torre or Fati instead of Gavi. I mean these are the ideal situation where you can give chances to players who rarely gets any playing time. Although I loved what Gavi did ❤️💙
I would take Szczesny over Inaki Pena any day any time. If we had Inaki Pena against Benfica, we would have lost that match. Fans trust in Szczesny his way better than Inaki Pena. Inaki is the reason we are 3rd place on the table. Inaki Pena conceded cheap goals against Leganes, Celta Vigo, Las Palmas, Real Betis & Atlectico Madrid too. We can't continue with Inaki Pena anymore. I love Hansi Flick bcos his listening and watching performances of how mediocrity of Inaki Pena. Szczesny is way better than Inaki Pena. In those goals Szczesny conceded was the fault of his defenders.
Don't mistake us fans for you Szczesny over Pena hell no. Pena I feell more at ease with him compare to Szczesny you know he's going to do make a couple of huge blunders in the same game. Scczensy was only chosen due to favouritism
@manbat8156 That's not true. Inaki Pena is the reason we are 3rd place. He can't catch balls. Any shot to his left or right angle is a goal. He only stops balls coming straight at him not away from him. Pena is a basket. Just like pouring water into a basket and hoping it would hold water. Nothing like favoritism here buddy. Szczesny merits the number one spot over Pena. We should sell Inaki Pena when Ter Stagen is back. One thing for such Inaki Pena is too short to be a goalkeeper.
@@senatoraguolu4773 Szczesny has conceded goals at an alarming rate and he hasn't played much and he gives away free penalties. Say what you want about Pena he doesn't rush out his box like a mindless zombie and commits unnecessary fouls. One is 25 and still improving the other is 34 soon to be 35 and has failed to impress many others like myself. Stegen has a couple of stinkers too every goalkeeper goes through a batch of bad form but Szczesny start off in bad form from the get go. It's barcelona offense which has bailed him out from total humiliation thus far definitely not his brillance or lack thereof.
@manbat8156 I can't agree with you on that bro. Inaki Pena is too short to be a goalie honestly. Any corner kicks I am scared to my socks. Go & look at the cheap cheap goals Pena conceded in the league late last year. Real Betis draw was his fault, first goal by Atlectico Madrid was his fault that was placement by DePaul and that ball pace still beat him plus the goals he conceded against Celta Vigo too. Look good goalkeepers keep you in games. I swear if Inaki Pena was keeping against Benfica, we would have lost. We don't seem to analyze this football correctly. Our defense exposed Szczesny a lot and put him under pressure that's the truth. I could say he had a hesitant to react on time, but with time he would adjust. Please if we wanna win the UCL use Szczesny not basket Inaki Pena. The worse day of Szczesny is way better than Inaki Pena.
@@senatoraguolu4773 I've seen the goals Inaki conceded however in comparison to your favorite goalie Pena is not conceding goals at an alarming rate or making as much mistakes at alarming rate. One have room for growth, the other just needs to go because his time has already pass and to be frank he was never a top goalkeeper. Average at best. Szczesny that is.
Jamie let's consider Rashford situation as Abameyan from Arsenal. When player wants to leave a club they stop performing at a high level. I strongly believe he will be a good addition to our attack.
You have forgotten to talk about balde, I think he deserves some appreciation, personally I wouldn't like to see English players coming to Barcelona. They're so arrogant and praised but less talented.

4 things that are a must have in this Flick system and let's not talk about the attitude problems
He had like 6 managers and failed all of them.
And when more than 3 managers come out and criticize you infront of the media and fans wanting you gone then maybe your the problem not them.
@ Lets take Sancho as an Example, how good he did motivated on his return with Dortmund? in comparison to not even playing with United. That Club has been a dumpster fire for the past 10+ years. I will not want to play for that club. He was great under Mourinho, Maybe he just need a change of scenery.
I like that flick took my advice to bring lewa on from the bench
W internet coach
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Frenkieeee de Jong! Thanks Jamie for addressing a GREAT barca player:). At all my fellow barca fans that dont like the jong: when someone makes a deal with you that involves money, you have to pay up. Thats how the world works. In no circumstance this person should be forced to lower the price after both parties sign the deal…
imagine if he never got those injuries. Where would he be
True here frenkie is best in midfield and now he has flu his form, so happy for him
Okay its not only the wages tho i love him as a player but hes not even commited to the club hasnt renewed or even talked to the club and hea supposed to be out captain? Send him on his way we want players who do anything for the badge
@@RonRon0110he already did that when he deferred his salary in the pandemic to help the club now we are whinning about having to pay him his money imagine if he had said "i dont care pay me my money" when the club was basically insolvent then fans like u would be attacking him. How would u feel about a club that u told u wanted to stay consistently putting out rumours about selling u and shaming u about the contract they gave u when u did them a favour during the pandemic? Probably not very enthusiastic about the club.
@@RonRon0110 his value has massively decreased after those injuries. I understand him and his agent. Get some games in first and show the staff and board what you’re worth. And then -> negotiate! Why would you negotiate directly coming of an injury when your value is low…
let’s be honest Szczesny is a better shot stopper and clearly needs a run of games his quality will show
No he isnt. Either way I would rather have a player who can run out the blocks in this extreme high line than a shot stopper who gives away a goal per game from stupid runs out the box. He is also a pen and red card risk.
@@lorenzomunisami6083 yea with the high line Peña is. Better fit
Agreed
in this system pena is more valuable, schezny almost got a red card yesterday, he got really lucky
I lost it with peña after the getafe game... one shot on target always results in a goal, some should even be routine saves like the free kick from rodrygo in the super cup
Happy to see Frenkie De Jong gradually getting his confidence and game back.
love for pablo torre ❤
I really love that attitude of Gavi, giving Pablo Torre a chance, he's a great player but not getting enough playing time...
People fail to see that Szczesny is making some plays that Pena wouldn't even attempt. He maybe he is proactive in some situations but it's because he's not fully in the game rythm yet.
Whenever Szczesny came out you could hear the crowd 😂 it was scary but funny to watch. Love that Frenkie is now getting up to pace.
Szczesny started because he needed this to keep his confidence up, looking at what happened in midweek against Benfica if Flick benched him it will destroy his confidence. This was brilliant from Flick. Let's not pretend, Szczesny was going to start at some point. Szczesny has the experience and expertise and we are in the most important moment of the season. Szczesny needs games to boost his confidence and also adapt to the highline. Trust me Pena hasn't been bad but he hasn't been great either.
8:57 Frenkie was the one I observed the most and I am happy to report that he seem to be learning and adapting FINALLY to what is important in a Barça midfield, no matter the coach. He has not been holding on to the ball too long and attempt his vertical drives, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT and once he continues like this and improves, it will become hard to keep him out the starting lineup, but great, we'll have good rotations. His drives will be important at times, AT TIMES, it HAS to be a situation where it's a high press and he has to use it to bring the ball forward but HE NEEDS COVERAGE IN CASE HE LOSES THE BALL.
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN JAMIE? 😂
BEEN WAITING FOR YOUR UPDATE 😁
THANKS SO MUCH 🎉
VAMOS ❤️💙
Been waiting for this video, Thank You Jamie ❤
Just in time for my lunch break 🤝
One thing that makes me happy about this Barcelona team is that even when we rotate and rest our players they'll still win conveniently and we also need to be giving this kind performance against the low block team then we are good to go and Szcesny been the main keeper isn't a problem but he needs to work on his timing when coming out of his position to avoid unnecessary foul and card but it's like he never adapt with the high line stuff,,, even if we don't win any trophies this season the squad has already shown a glimpse of bright future that by next season they'll be unstoppable and scary...we go again on Wednesday‼️
Vamos Barcelona 🔵🔴🔵🔴💯
For low block we need wingers which will make crosses into the box to Lewandowski. So far this is where Barca is quite poor. Only Kounde and Balde do it, but we need better quality crosses. I wish Lamine did them more often from the deep right, but we still need left winger that can deliver similarly
Why do people want De Jong to leave?? Man is good
Reactionary fans. But the only real 'problem' is he wasn't delivering enough to justify his wages. If he plays like this against all competition then everyone will want him to stay.
@@Taurean_SAMA actually it is about him not re-signing and his contract running down for a potential free transfer.
It’s not that fans want him to leave, it’s more the fact that his contract is running out soon and he’s showing no urgency at all to renew it. So wed rather sell him now for money than lose him for free. I hope he stays, i hope he renews. But so far, he hasn’t shown that desire too. So that’s where the frustration comes from.
Bec. Wages are tooo high ,and he is not even accepting a new contract with lower wages.
Wages and his denial to renew, it’s better to sell him than lose him for free
Good to see someone highlight Pau Curbasi's talent. For me, this guy is every bit as talented as Lamine Yamal, just on the opposite end of the pitch. Passing aside, his defensive ability is evident to see. He loves getting into challenges and one-on-ones. Just hope he continues to develop and also grow physically to improve his physicality and speed.
There is a generational talent in Lamine, and there is another generational talent in Pau. Let's hope they both develop and not get hampered by injuries.
7:29 no one doubts Fermin quality and that he is a good asset to the team. Issue he has is, Olmo is ahead of him and we have seen where Gavi is too and he is not ideal playing out of position on either wing, he MUST be CAM or at least an interior LCM/RCM. No matter how well he plays, he wont be ahead of Gavi because Gavi stature is very high in comparison. I personally do not prefer Gavi at CAM in high profile games or especially teams with low block, he is not the creative to type to break such defenses consistently. Fermin short on that too, he is best when he has space to run in to.
Olmo injury prone
Your vids make my day better
This whole Rashford situation reminds me of Aubamayang with his situation with Arsenal. I think Rashford would step up and give his all for us if he were to come like Auba but yes its a Gamble
Rashford is very poor technically is inconsistent and an ego
Why do you think he's leaving United
no it is not even slightly similar. Aubameyang was good and just had issues with his age and manager. Trashford is just trash and almost every season of his life proved it. Also Idk about Trashford giving his all, he has not done that in ages and I'm talking 4+ years.
This 32 games 100+ goals is the 4th time in the history of Barca and Cuba is the best ball passer I've ever seen hands down.❤
I think Flick rates Szczesny's over Pena because of his ball distribution and his ability to sometimes find a pass after sweeping to maintain possession of the ball while Pena always clears it, and I think Flick is banking on Szczesny to learn how to position himself, judge the flight of the ball in behind, etc to properly sweep. IMO next summer we should go for Unai Simon, he can sweep, pass decently, and shot stop, he fit's the system well and he's capped with Spanish national team so he can link up with the others in the team and he knows the league well so there isn't a lack of experience and he's around his peak years.
Thank you Jamie ❤all the way from Cameroon 🇨🇲
Le continent
To be honest, Szczesny is more suitable for La Liga where teams sit deep and look to take us out on Counter because he is a great Shot stopper and can give us some important saves which can give us wins instead of draws. On the other hand, Pena should play in the Champions League and cup competitions where the games are more open and we need a proper sweeper keeper behind that high line
My first time commenting 🤣
Hello 👋 Jamie
I was wondering y Jamie took alot of time without making this video, thank God u have finally made it
I was impressed by Lewy's goal. He got the pass, ran in the box and took a shot; all without looking at the box once. 😮
A flamboyant performance yesterday ❤
Pena has been really solid for us to be honest and he didn't make any mistake this season either. It's really harsh for him. It could have been his season just like Lunin had last year.
So when a player is benched for another to play it is called Harshness? Players rotation only makes a team better in all aspects. I hope he also continue the rotation when MAT comes back. Getting every player involved is the way forward.
I agree with the Flickman...if we win with Szscesny, keep him in! Wins are what matter above anything else!!!
Been waiting for you all day Jamie. All the way from South Africa
I think with Sczeczny it's more about the confidence that he has in his abilities, due to his maturity and experience. Mind you, even when he conceded 4 goals against Benfica there wasn't any sign of a loss in confidence in him. In fact, he owned up to his mistakes and took accountability after the match. So I think it's a mixture of confidence, positive energy that he may have brought, and a little bit of superstition as well from Flick, especially because he said they haven't lost a game with him on the pitch😅
ik its too much but nothing is out of talk...hoping for a treble this season🔥🔥
Szczęsny will cost us big time in the Champions League giving away penalties. I think Pena is being punished for coming late regularly
3:46
Ball playing defender❌️
Playmaking defender✅️
First of his kind
The game was absolutely amazing, and I was lucky to be there, and it could and probably should have been 12-1
I really wished for Ansu Fati to come on yesterday 😔
Yeah
Nope. It’s not about his form, but lack of intensity for whatever reason. Guy was walking most of the time, not trying too much to retrieve the ball. Wasn’t once but every time he played. No one who doesn’t press will be playing in Flicks team. Perhaps Ansu thinks he’s Messi and allowed to do so.
@@whitecrowuk575 ansu should find a club
@@whitecrowuk575you’re making things up buddy. Ansu has played about 90 minutes this season and every time he’s come on he has attacked the ball. You could say the same about ferran but flick has been patient with him and it’s paying off. Obviously he doesn’t think he’s Messi. And he deserves game time.
@ I suggest rewatch games he played again . I wished him to get in form but after seeing how he didn’t press almost at all and when he did with little intensity. Do you think why Flick stopped subbing him? Precisely that’s why. Not because he wasn’t scoring, Ferran at the time wasn’t particularly shining either - but was pressing much better.
Eric is a great ball playing defender, alongside cubarsi, while inigo is injured and in that aspect, he can do more than araujo.
Araujo is a beast don’t get me wrong, but he needs to improve his ball circulation and passing. In a team that plays so high, we really need ball playing CBs ❤️💙
My man Big Eric! He had a great game yet again
H hasn’t been bad this season except for the Monaco game which was MATS fault these reactionary fans just think he’s deadwood due his performances in his first season
@Raphinha_X_Yamal he's been a great utility player and has had solid performances as 6. Girona even used him as fullback and he had a great run of form.
@ fr he was good at girona real ones knew he was gonna be better than before
Flick loves chaos, he uses that to trick the opponent to believe they can make things happen. Then boom they are 3 goals down. Hence his decision to play Szczesny. It’s a similar reason as the high line. Psychology!!!
17:45 I dont care about Rashford current level in training. The player WANTS to leave, we saw it with Aubemayeng and once he stepped through the doors at Barça he became a complete new and reenergized man!
Every shirt that has white colour hurt barca players minimum is 5goals😂
Szczensy need more time to get used to team and playing in high line and I think Hansi has realized this, he wants to bring him up to speed to build his confidence. This is my opinion only
I believe in peña more. Schesny doesn't calculate his attempts well
i agree, but it could be from his long retirement. maybe a few more games to truly see if its consistent
@@thearmy9326yea I think he has a lot rust to shake off and its even more the case with this high line. he said himself he has never played with his defenders that far away from him and it shows. He looks overzealous almost fearful being a in a 1v1 from a long ball that might beat the high line 😂.
the only way to get his rust shaken off and get his bearings calibrated is more games because he will have to play at some point and you want him up to speed. I think he should start again against Atalanta since we dont have anything to lose.
Good game by Frenkie hopefully those cheers yesterday makes him reconsider renewing his contract. Peña > Szczesny no question about it
If Frenkie hits his top form,he benches Casado and we all know how good he is but everyone is just furious about his wages
I think the pressure is much higher when you are talented and getting bought for money.
Because then you have to deliver for your price tag.
But when you came from academy, you earn not much money, nobody put pressure on you. And then your environment is familar to you.
Barcas concept of growing youth is such a perfect example how players grow up.
Nobody talking abt casado
That guy was everywhere
i’ve been watching for so long and i still enjoy these videos! visca!
A sorry but Schezny should come off the Bench , I truly trust Peña more ❤
Great entertaining game all and all thou
I think Hansi should try this formula whenever we meet with less pressure team. The players might be earger to win as compare to when the strongest team is used.
I've been waiting for so long
I think flick knows like us all fans that pena is shit and can’t be trusted. That’s why he’s trying to get Szczesny into his best so he doesn’t have to rely on Pena.
Fermin was on something yesterday 😂
I've been saying for a long time that he should play in his olmo's place
Thats because of competition
Olmo pedri gavi cassado pablo torre so everyone must give their best to earn a place in the starting 11
in my opinion Pena seems more constant, but he also plays a lot. You can't have consistency if you don't play. I think Flick had to start Szczesny to give him confidence after he looked a bit out of shape in his games. By playing him he also gave the squad the opportunity to get more confident with Szczesny as the last man on the field.
3:33 we know all of this, but his problem is when he is actually put under pressure, he bottles and makes errors. But if he can come in to games like these and give players a rest, no problem.
ERIC PLAYER BETTER THAN ARUJO DID AGAINST BENFICA AND THATS WHY WE SCORED 7 GOALS BECAUSE OUR ATTACK STARTED FROM THE BACK EVERY SINGLE TIME WE DID ATTACK VISCAAAAAAA BARCAAAAAA ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just check the entire press conference man. He told that they are equally good, tek has strong points and weak points so does Pena. But he said that it’s a feeling, I think he also ment composure. Because as a lot of fans have noticed, Pena is kind of unsure and feels nervy. And I totally agree with that, and let’s not forget Tek just got back and is playing in an entire new defense and playingstyle. Give the guy some time.
I was here waiting on you so long.
I love Szczesny and I was so excited when he came, but maybe we should play him on smaller games, let Pena take the big games
Szczesny! It’s like investing in the stock markets. You don’t know which one is the best for sure but you have to let the investor choose and go with the best odds of winning at the end. I think that Flick really wants to win CL and want to make that bet. It’s not a crazy bet considering the fact that Szczesny was one of the best goalkeepers in the world his entire career and possibly just need a few more games to get into the right rhythm
16 seconds 2nd comment and love the vids keep it up and keep the dedication up
We got the old Frenkie back🔥
The mid-field trio [Frenkie, Fermin, Casado] does work ...
Another option [Pedri, Olmo, Gavi] ... with [Pablo, Toni, Noah] on the bench.
Flick just needs to find the right 2 combinations ... not playing 3 toothless mid-fielders [Pedri, Gavi, Casado] !!
I feel we will get a repeat of the Aubameyang situation with rashford
I believe rashford could still be a very important player because just 2seasons ago he was scoring goals for fun,averaging a goal every game. I just feel he has lost it with man united and also his relationship with Amorim has hit rock bottom .
Watched every one of your videos since 2019! I want to know your opinion on Araujo celebration
WOW!!! Thank you so much my friend, that’s absolutely incredible, wow! I will definitely speak in some detail about this tomorrow - I thought it was very interesting… 😉
Thanks for the amazing support!!
First!!! What a happy Monday, after yesterday's game!
Morinho also said KDB was lasy back in Chelsea but we can see the career KDB has gone on to have.
Love your posts, gives me something to watch on TH-cam haha... 😅
Pena. Pena. Pena. Szeszney made another mistake yesterday, bailed out by the foul on kounde. VAR bailed him out. Every game he makes a big mistake.
And who doesn’t make mistake ? Pena might be good sweeper but he makes mistakes too give the man a chance for God sake .. I would in form Szeszney over Pena anyday anytime
Has not made a mistake this season. The goals he conceded where 100% chances because the team showed no intensity and gave the opponente miles of space@@richardedet2718
Pena would just sit back and it's a clear 1v1 goal , Szczesny took a chance and that's a chance to save a penalty
@richardedet2718 thank goodness you are not a football manager.
@@thecomplainer-my8jk And thank God you aren’t also .
I was just waiting for this 😂😂😂🔵🛑🔵♥️🇹🇿
Fermin is our muller he brings unpredictable energy that we need to break down low block
Watching cubarsi play is like watching pirlo playing center back ..
what an absolute talent !!!
Szczesny will only get better from here, he’s not used to the sweeper keeper role, his peak version at juventus used to play very defensively unlikely how Barca plays now.
He’s still learning
We've seen many players in the situation of rashford come to Barca recently and excel. Auba, cancelo, Felix just to name a few. Most of the time a change of scenery is needed for the player to get back to their best. Hopefully that's the case with rashford.
Let's keep that same energy for the rest of the season 💯💯💯
I honestly think this team is gonna be on an even higher level come next season man💯💯
So late I've been waiting for this video all day long
I click with the speed of light
Gavi telling flick who to sub lol😮
To be honest it should have been Flick in the first place who should have called Pablo Torre or Fati instead of Gavi. I mean these are the ideal situation where you can give chances to players who rarely gets any playing time. Although I loved what Gavi did ❤️💙
yessir talkfcb vid
I would take Szczesny over Inaki Pena any day any time. If we had Inaki Pena against Benfica, we would have lost that match. Fans trust in Szczesny his way better than Inaki Pena. Inaki is the reason we are 3rd place on the table. Inaki Pena conceded cheap goals against Leganes, Celta Vigo, Las Palmas, Real Betis & Atlectico Madrid too. We can't continue with Inaki Pena anymore. I love Hansi Flick bcos his listening and watching performances of how mediocrity of Inaki Pena. Szczesny is way better than Inaki Pena. In those goals Szczesny conceded was the fault of his defenders.
Don't mistake us fans for you Szczesny over Pena hell no. Pena I feell more at ease with him compare to Szczesny you know he's going to do make a couple of huge blunders in the same game. Scczensy was only chosen due to favouritism
@manbat8156 That's not true. Inaki Pena is the reason we are 3rd place. He can't catch balls. Any shot to his left or right angle is a goal. He only stops balls coming straight at him not away from him. Pena is a basket. Just like pouring water into a basket and hoping it would hold water.
Nothing like favoritism here buddy. Szczesny merits the number one spot over Pena. We should sell Inaki Pena when Ter Stagen is back. One thing for such Inaki Pena is too short to be a goalkeeper.
@@senatoraguolu4773 Szczesny has conceded goals at an alarming rate and he hasn't played much and he gives away free penalties. Say what you want about Pena he doesn't rush out his box like a mindless zombie and commits unnecessary fouls. One is 25 and still improving the other is 34 soon to be 35 and has failed to impress many others like myself. Stegen has a couple of stinkers too every goalkeeper goes through a batch of bad form but Szczesny start off in bad form from the get go. It's barcelona offense which has bailed him out from total humiliation thus far definitely not his brillance or lack thereof.
@manbat8156 I can't agree with you on that bro. Inaki Pena is too short to be a goalie honestly. Any corner kicks I am scared to my socks. Go & look at the cheap cheap goals Pena conceded in the league late last year. Real Betis draw was his fault, first goal by Atlectico Madrid was his fault that was placement by DePaul and that ball pace still beat him plus the goals he conceded against Celta Vigo too. Look good goalkeepers keep you in games. I swear if Inaki Pena was keeping against Benfica, we would have lost.
We don't seem to analyze this football correctly. Our defense exposed Szczesny a lot and put him under pressure that's the truth. I could say he had a hesitant to react on time, but with time he would adjust. Please if we wanna win the UCL use Szczesny not basket Inaki Pena. The worse day of Szczesny is way better than Inaki Pena.
@@senatoraguolu4773 I've seen the goals Inaki conceded however in comparison to your favorite goalie Pena is not conceding goals at an alarming rate or making as much mistakes at alarming rate. One have room for growth, the other just needs to go because his time has already pass and to be frank he was never a top goalkeeper. Average at best. Szczesny that is.
Jamie let's consider Rashford situation as Abameyan from Arsenal. When player wants to leave a club they stop performing at a high level.
I strongly believe he will be a good addition to our attack.
You have forgotten to talk about balde, I think he deserves some appreciation, personally I wouldn't like to see English players coming to Barcelona. They're so arrogant and praised but less talented.
