Flick: "My plan is pretty close to the Barça that did well with Cruyff or Guardiola"

Hansi Flick just had his first press conference as the new coach of FC Barcelona, and it lasted a little over an hour. During this time, he answered about thirty questions on various topics. The first question was about his coaching style, and the German coach was very clear about it: "I am not far from the style that Barça used to play when they achieved success with Cruyff or Pep. My idea is to have an active team on the field, eager to showcase their skills with and without the ball. I want them to have the freedom to decide their moves, as initiative is crucial. Whether we play in a 4-3-3 formation or a 4-2-3-1, what matters most is that we play a beautiful, technical, and exciting game. I want everyone watching to see that the team is giving their all," he explained.
