Flick: We’re delighted with the display, Raphinha is one of the best

Flick: We’re delighted with the display, Raphinha is one of the best Hansi Flick spoke at a press conference ahead of Levante-Barcelona, which will be played this Sunday. This is what the Barcelona coach had to say... The excitement among Barça fans "We’re very happy to be playing at this level, but we know we have to prove it in every match. We know our quality, but we have to maintain the mentality, focus, intensity..." Is there room for improvement? "Our goal, and what we want, is to be better every day, for everyone to stay hungry to improve." An exciting start to the season "For me, it’s the way we want to play. We know everything can change quickly. We are one hundred percent committed and we want to keep it that way." Rotations against Levante? "It’s part of the game. The players have to accept it. In every position we have two or three players who can play, and that has to be accepted. The other day against Feyenoord I was very satisfied. We’re in a good moment and we have to keep it that way." Cesc’s praise for Barcelona’s style of play "We’re focused on what is in our hands. I’m also impressed with Cesc’s Como. I watched the match against Leipzig and they did very well. We’re only thinking about the next match. It’s important to have this mentality of taking it one game at a time. We’re on the right path, but it’s a long road until the end of the season." The forward: Raphinha, Gabriel Jesus, Hamza... "We have three different profiles. Adeyemi, Dani Olmo, Fermín or Gordon can also play there. There are many options. Rapha is playing fantastically, on another level. It’s incredible. He’s one of the best in the world." Does it bother you that you’re not being asked about Levante? "It’s your job to know what you want to ask me, not mine (laughs). It will be a good match to compete against a good team." Hamza Abdelkarim’s contract renewal "He is a player who performed well in pre-season and competes with the rest of the players in this position. He is a different profile in this team. He is a great asset for the club’s future and we wanted him in the team." This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇪🇸 here.
