Communication between the sporting department and the German coach is constant and fluid, and the main outlines of what next season’s squad should look like, along with the changes required, have already been defined.

However, the priority now is to focus on what truly matters – winning the league title.

Concerns in the attacking unit

The win against Celta Vigo left Flick with mixed feelings. While the team secured three points, he sensed fatigue after several emotionally intense weeks.

There was also frustration at once again seeing controversial VAR decisions, with a goal disallowed due to a marginal offside involving Ferran Torres. Lamine’s injury only increased his concern, particularly regarding the attacking line.

Last season, he could rely on a front three of Lamine, Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha. Now, he can only consistently count on the Polish striker, whose performances have not matched last season’s level.

Flick was also not satisfied with the attitude shown by Marcus Rashford during his minutes against Atletico Madrid, nor with his display against Celta, where the English winger showed a lack of intensity that the coach considers unacceptable.

As a result, all attention from the coaching staff is now on Raphinha, who could resume training next week and return in time to face Osasuna.
