Hansi Flick’s arrival at FC Barcelona has injected a new and invigorating energy into the club. The German manager, renowned for his disciplined approach, has quickly made a significant impact with his extensive experience. 

His arrival signals a shift in how players need to approach their roles, as they now face the challenge of impressing him to secure a place in his starting lineup for the upcoming season.

As a result of all this, according to recent reports from Mundo Deportivo, the atmosphere around the club has markedly improved since Flick took charge. 

Both the board members and players are expressing their satisfaction with Flick’s approach. His rigorous training sessions have been particularly well-received, marking a stark contrast to previous regimes.

Flick has impressed everyone at Barcelona

In the brief three weeks since Flick assumed control, he has managed to win the favour of almost everyone associated with the club. 

His methods have been positively received, and the initial phase of his tenure has been met with enthusiastic approval from the club’s sporting leadership. However, the true measure of his impact will ultimately be determined by his performance once competitive matches begin.

Joan Laporta, the club president, and the sporting commission have placed considerable faith in Flick and thus far, he has lived up to their expectations.

They have noted that, despite the need for a certain level of autonomy for Flick to perform his duties effectively, he has not disappointed in these early stages.

Training methods are his plus point

One of the standout aspects of Flick’s approach has been the intensity of his training sessions. The double training sessions have been a key feature, and they are appreciated by both the players and the coaching staff. 

This demanding regime is seen as a positive step, as it helps the players, particularly the younger ones, prove their worth and earn their place in the first team.

The team’s reaction to Flick’s new methods has been generally positive. He enjoys the explicit support of influential players like Marc-Andre ter Stegen, one of the team captains, as well as Ilkay Gundogan and Robert Lewandowski. 

These players are expected to be key pillars for Flick on the field and their endorsement is crucial, especially as they influence younger players. 

While the Spanish internationals are yet to return, the current squad is proving to be a battleground where Flick is laying the groundwork for success. Support from players like Thiago Alcantara is also instrumental in establishing a solid foundation.
