Hansi, Barça's Flick, proves to be very demanding during training with a view to getting back on track.
After FC Barcelona lost to Real Sociedad, coach Hansi Flick implemented an intense training session that left some players exhausted. This rigorous approach underlines the importance of physical preparation within the team, an aspect that the players themselves have particularly valued since Flick's arrival. On Monday morning at the Ciutat Esportiva, the team gathered for a recovery session which quickly took an unexpected turn. While the starters followed a recovery program, the substitutes, in search of playing time, engaged in intensive physical exercises. This led to a situation where several players, including Gavi and Pau Víctor, were pushed to their limits, collapsing from fatigue under the amused and proud gaze of their coach.
An update of physical qualities
FC Barcelona's success this season is largely based on rigorous physical work. Players have often noted that, under Flick's guidance, they have made significant progress in their physical condition. This post-defeat training session not only served to strengthen the players' physical fitness, but also to send a clear message that those who want to have a place in the team must fight for it. With the upcoming break for the national teams, less used players, like Pau Víctor and Gavi, have a great opportunity to show themselves. Injuries to Lamine and Lewandowski offer these young talents a golden chance to prove their worth to Flick. Gavi, who is returning to form, and Pau Víctor, who is looking to assert himself, are determined to seize this opportunity to shine in the next training sessions.
