Messi, impressed by Flick, said, "I'm not surprised at all."
After Xavi Hernandez left Barcelona’s dugout, the Catalans handed over the responsibility to Hansi Flick. The fans and supporters were eager to see how Flick would handle the troubled Barcelona. Flick is reflecting the hopes and aspirations of the fans and supporters. He has radically changed Barcelona since he arrived. The Catalans have made a great start to the current season under his tough coaching. The club’s legendary footballer Lionel Messi is impressed by the success of his former club under Flick’s coaching.
After Flick took charge, Barcelona have won 11 of their 13 league matches this season. On the contrary, they have lost 2 matches. Due to such a great performance, they are at the top of the points table. Rafinha-Lamine Yamal are also running at a great pace in the new format of the Champions League. They also have the highest goals in the league and Champions League so far.
Messi is finding his golden past in the success of his former team. In a recent interview with TV3, the Argentina World Cup-winning captain said, “I am very proud of the way Barcelona’s main team is representing the club.” News Marca
Barcelona’s current team is led by a bunch of young footballers who have come out of La Masia. Where Pedri, Gavi, Yamalra are. Where Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Piqué once dominated. That’s why the team is doing such a good job.
The record eight-time Ballon d’Or winner said, “Barcelona’s team is great, although I’m not surprised at all. It’s nothing new, it’s always been like this, or you could say since I went there (La Masia) at the age of 13.
These boys have been getting the opportunity to prove themselves for the last two years, it’s great. If you can make them confident, they will respond like this, because they know this club better than anyone else. They are used to it from a young age. This has happened in our time too.
Meanwhile, Flick is overwhelmed by the praise he receives from a star like Messi. That is why the Catalans’ German coach wore a Messi bandana at a press conference before taking the field against Celta Vigo in La Liga on Saturday (November 23).
Flick said that it is an honor to receive praise from the best player in Barcelona’s history. He follows everything about how this team is playing and how the young people are doing here. It is really a great thing.
In 20 years, there is no title that Messi has not won in the Barcelona jersey. In 778 matches for the Barcelona main team, he scored 672 goals. Which is a record. He won the highest player of the year award while playing for this club. The Barcelona-Messi duo is still unbroken.
