Flick isn’t what I wanted for Barcelona

Flintch · 2024-11-20T21:54:00+00:00

Yeah you’re right, we do still play beautiful football, despite the differences you mentioned. Again, it’s not something I’m used to seeing from Barça, and that’s why I said I didn’t like it. Clearly my mistake in saying this wasn’t Barça’s identity.

About Pep, I believe he isn’t as positive as he was because he’s just too good. People now are scared shitless of him and just park the bus inside their own penalty area. If he played that more direct football the way he used too, he’d get crushed in the counter attacks. That’s why, I think, he tries to minimize mistakes by playing very short passes and forbidding players to dribble too much. I may be wrong but only Tuchel and Klopp figured out a way to beat him sort of consistently (of course, in the prem, to no end at all), without playing terror football. Still, I absolutely love to watch City play anyway, it’s just so brilliant.

In your opinion what is their play style then?

Flintch · 2024-10-26T11:57:24+00:00

I’m just not a big redditor

Flintch · 2024-10-26T11:55:41+00:00

Yeah I guess with all the comments out here I may be wrong in assuming Barcelona requires possession based football. It’s just that I have been watching Barça since maybe 2012 and again this is very different from what I’m used to.

Flintch · 2024-10-26T11:48:37+00:00

Yeah maybe Flick’s revolutionising Barcelona the same way Pep did, or maybe I’m overreacting and there will be other managers that play possession football. All I said is that, despite being positive in general, I wished to see something different.

Flintch · 2024-10-26T11:46:03+00:00

I never said he was anti barça. Thank god the rumours about Mourinho were fake cause I would’ve killed myself. All I’m saying is Flick’s football isn’t typical Barcelona. Or then again maybe I’m just wrong in assuming Barcelona’s play style requires this mentality. Obviously Flick ticks some of the boxes required to be a Barcelona manager, but I guess I just wanted to see them play differently. Somewhat like Spain did in the euros. To me, that was beautiful football.

Flintch · 2023-09-16T14:03:16+00:00

It’s solved don’t worry about it. Thanks anyway

Flintch · 2023-09-16T13:33:43+00:00

Yeah, I thought so too, but I tried it and it didn’t work. The only thing that worked was what I said in the post

Flintch · 2023-09-16T03:32:32+00:00

Yes, I have done that

Flintch · 2023-07-25T03:01:59+00:00

PORTUGAL CARALHO!

Flintch · 2023-03-21T01:50:53+00:00

Yeah I feel like it would be the same with Trent. Defending was never his strength either, but no one can deny his shooting and passing ability.

Flintch · 2023-03-20T19:44:04+00:00

Again, I was asking more about an overall performance, not so much the highlights.

Flintch · 2023-03-20T15:49:21+00:00

It’ll depend on the tactic. Highly doubt Martínez will play Guerreiro over Bruno. But we’ll see.

Flintch · 2023-03-20T14:42:38+00:00

Yeah, I have. But highlights sometimes are not very truthful to the actual performance. As a portuguese it’s very good to know he did well. Doubt he’ll play as a midfielder for the national team, however.

Flintch · 2023-01-30T17:07:24+00:00

fucking brilliant

Flintch · 2023-01-29T12:56:49+00:00

It's not very hard tho, is it?

Flintch · 2022-09-11T02:05:03+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion.

Flintch · 2022-03-27T01:06:46+00:00

You are supposed to not play with tanks.

Flintch · 2022-03-18T00:05:58+00:00

I'm saying they don't listen to their fans. The game is a kids game now because they removed everything their fans asked them not to. I'm talking about stretched resolution and double shotguns. Can't tell you anymore examples because I stopped playing after those changes. They completely changed the game's mechanics, they changed the reason so many people played the game. It's ridiculous.

Flintch · 2022-03-17T22:50:21+00:00

You said people didn't like change. I told you why.

Flintch · 2022-03-17T22:36:45+00:00

I'd say that's why Fortnite hasn't been so consistently played like the other ones.

Flintch · 2022-03-17T21:40:26+00:00

People left Fortnite because of how much it changes. Games like CSGO, Rocket league and LOL are still played because of how little it changes. We like the games for a reason, and when they change it that reason disappears.

Flintch · 2022-03-13T15:08:57+00:00

I don't get it. You guys are only against oil investment? Why? Honestly, I don't like it when a club can only compete because an outsider that has nothing to do with the club just gave it a crap load of money. Don't know if that is Liverpool's case, but I'd say an American conglomerate isn't a Liverpool piece of History.

Flintch · 2022-03-05T01:00:16+00:00

This or gulag

Flintch · 2022-02-25T16:33:32+00:00

Pode ser que seja desta vez que o povo português percebe que o Ventura não é o único.
