FLICK HAS ITS ROLES VERY DEFINED
Hansi Flick's plan for Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, Ilkay Gündogan and Gavi
In the absence of signing at least one midfielder, Hansi Flick seems to be clear about how he wants his midfield at Barça. The German has defined the roles that Pedri, Gündogan, Frenkie de Jong and Gavi will have, once he recovers
The 'room of machines' is where originates the football of any team and Hansi Flick has very clear that his FC Barcelona has to achieve impose through the same. The German trainer knows that it goes to be very important that his centre of the field mark the differences with ball and also without the same, especially in the pressure. It is thus by what, as it aims 'Sportive World', already is thinking in the roles that will occupy the midfield players the next season.
Although the pre-season still is far, the germano already has quite defined in his head the functions that will fulfil Frenkie of Jong, Ilkay Gündogan, Pedri and the lesionado Gavi, that still has for several months, but that expects that it can begin to train in the turn of the holidays. To fault that it arrive the wished mediocentro headline, the ex míster of the Bayern of Munich seems that it wants to play with three midfield players, but that his disposal does not go to be fixed.
In principle, until it arrive the new signing for the midfield, the idea is that Frenkie and Gündogan occupy a species of double pivote. Although any has a purely defensive profile and the aim would be to reinforce with somebody that yes have it, by his experience, intelligence and quality Hansi thinks that could do the function of mediocentros. By in front it would be Pedri, to the one who the trainer sees more like a species of mediapunta in the offensive section. Flick Wants to take advantage of the big vision of Pedri and his talent in rival field to be the link with the forwards, by what prefers to have him in three chambers of field that like mediocentro or inner.
Gavi, that splits with disadvantage regarding his mates of face to litigate a place in the eleven headline, in the head of the technician will be able to cover distinct roles. The favourite for which sees it seems that it is the one of pivote in this line of two in which right now it sees to Gündo and Of Jong. The dynamism with the ball, the pressure after loss and the aggressiveness with and especially without ball that characterise to the Andalusian are qualities that the ex of Germany values a lot for this place. Nevertheless, by his arrival and by the a lot of that would contribute in the pressure in rival field, also would see him further up, like mediapunta, or even as 'false' extreme.
Christensen and Fermín, alternatives for the half
In principle, right now in the head of Hansi, Frenkie, Ilkay and Pedri would be the trident title in the half, with Gavi like acting star. However, in the current staff still there is two 'letters' important that could win importance in the diagrams of the technician when it see them in pre-season. It treats of Andreas Christensen, that in this 2024 has been the pivote title of the Barça, and Fermín López, 2º maximum goleador of the staff and one of the mediocampistas with more smell goleador of Europe.
The Danish could have place like mediocentro if Flick saw that to the team is missing him balance with Gündogan and Of Jong or with one of them and Gavi. His performance this campaign in the half has been remarkable and no can him descartar of the all, although he seats more comfortable of head office. By his part, Fermín does not have the quality neither the vision of Pedri for the mediapunta, but has more goal and this is something impagable in the football. It will be a relief 'top' and if the Canarian had some injury or was not to his best level could become a brutal solution for this more advanced position.
