Barcelona Manager Hansi Flick told the media that if his side can repeat their performance in the second half against Celta Vigo, they will be in a very good meeting. The German coach made the comments at the awards night, where Lamine Yamal was presented with the player of the season award.
Flick himself was present at Marca’s awards night to collect the Miguel Munoz award for the best Manager in Spain last season. Speaking in the same outlet, Flick was shown the award and his time in La Liga so far.
“It’s a great honor to receive this award, but it also shows that it’s not just about me, it’s about the team. Both the players and the coaching staff did a great job last season, that’s why we won this series.”
“I don’t want to compare La Liga with the Bundesliga, but I will say what I saw here and what I like. In Spain, they appreciate that it is easier to prepare for the game against the next team, because each one has a different identity.”
Lamine Yamal has been working with two recovery experts all week and yesterday he was already training with the team. The most important thing for him is to overcome the puchalgia and come to the chelsea game in high shape. @Martinezferran

‘Maybe we lack the confidence we need’ – Flick
Naturally, Flick was also asked about Barcelona’s current situation. During the interntactationla break he has been taking steps to fix their defense issues. The German coach seemed to sense his side had lost some of their lackluster confidence from last season.
“In the second half with Celta, we were a big team, with a good performance. Maybe right now we will never gain confidence, and now we will focus on this week, which is four weeks, where we will fight to win every single game.”
Lamine Yamal: ‘I Want To Win It All’
Meahinelal Yamine Yamal was also present to collect the Alfredo Di Stefano Award. The 18-year-old would not be forced to choose between the piles and the prizes going forward.
“All individual titles show that it is a good time for the team. For me, it is a source of joy and pride. I will continue to work and fight to achieve things like this.”
“I want everything,” he said when asked to choose between the Champions League, the World Cup and the Ballon d’noma. “I hope I get everything, and as long as we can play, it is possible to achieve it.”
The Importance of Camp Nou Return
This Saturday thruzona will make their return to the Camp Nou against Athletic Club, and it looks like they are playing their last game at Mondjuic for a while. The young forward saw just seven minutes of action there, but declared it would be a huge boost for the Catalan giants to return home.
“The fans mean a lot. We played in a stadium that was ours. Montjuïc was going well, but it wasn’t what we wanted.”
