The German coach of FC Barcelona, ​​Hansi Flick, commented this Friday that it is “very important” that his team maintains against Real Betis “the mentality and confidence” that they showed in Son Moix against Mallorca, but that it will also be key ” materialize” the opportunities available to them.

“It is very important that we have the same mentality as in Mallorca. Obviously next week we have an important match in the Champions League, so it is important that we continue with confidence, believing in our strengths and strength. This is what “this young team needs. Of course, it is also important to materialize the chances like in the second half in Mallorca,” commented the German coach of FC Barcelona in the press conference prior to the league match that pits the Catalans against Real Betis in the benedict Villamarin.

Flick stated that when you win “the feeling and sensation” it is “much better” than when you lose. “The players are happy, they celebrated the great game we played in Mallorca. A great victory for us, but I see them very concentrated and focused on what we want to do, also in training, where I can feel it and see it,” he added.

Regarding the distance with respect to Real Madrid in the League after the whites’ defeat in San Mamés, the German explained that he “always” seeks to focus on his team. “I try not to depend at all on the rivals, it doesn’t matter if it’s Real Madrid or someone else. We don’t care what they do. We have to focus on what we can do and the way we operate,” he added.

“We need Raphinha in every game. When he is fit and available to play, he will play. If he works for 90 minutes, then up to 90, and if it is for less, then for less. You have to adapt, but he, like Lewandowski, is vital for us. Both will be starters tomorrow,” said the culé coach regarding a possible rest for the Brazilian winger in the duel against Real Betis.

Regarding the depth of the squad, Flick pointed out that it is “very important” in view of the number of games the team can have in 2025. “We have to have options to be able to leave one or two players to recover, and for this it is a lot It’s better that the entire squad is healthy. I like that all the players are there and that they are options to play. At the moment everything looks very good, and hopefully we will finish this year with each and every one of the players healthy,” he said.

The German coach also analyzed the fact of playing more home games in the second round of LaLiga: “It could be an advantage, although I am not very convinced because we have to play all the games, and we already saw what happened against Las Palmas. We have “I want to return with strength to the Camp Nou, I believe that in March we will be able to do it.”

Regarding Lamine Yamal’s influence on the team and how decisive he is, he said that “the statistics speak for themselves.” He also highlighted the virtues of his rival: “They have quite a few quality and experienced players, and they are a very good team, and Isco is also back. They are capable of pressing high up and we will have to be careful and focused on our game.”

“He is improving more and more and we realize that he did not arrive here in the best situation. When I spoke with him in preseason I saw that he was not happy, so I think it was the best decision for him. In the end, also from the human, the loan was positive for him,” commented Hansi Flick about Vitor Roque’s loan to Real Betis.

Regarding Araujo, he confirmed that he will not be at Benito Villamarín, and recalled that the objective is for him to arrive for the match against Leganés in mid-December. “He is doing quite well in training, but at the moment it is not easy to include him in the calls,” he noted.

Finally, Flick had words of affection with Manuel Pellegrini. “He is a super coach. His teams always play very good football. The style with which they play is very good, they love playing with the ball and, of course, he knows how to transmit confidence to the players and that can be palpable. It is not easy for rivals to play against their teams,” he concluded.
