Last night, FC Barcelona were disillusioned on their lawn against Atlético Madrid (1-2). Largely dominant, the Blaugranas suffered a lesson in efficiency from the Colchoneros, who knew how to be decisive at the right moments unlike the Catalans who were far too imprecise in front of goal. The situation, however, is terrible for the club culé. In the last seven matches he has played in the league, he has won only one for four defeats and two draws. And unfortunately for Hansi Flick, the statistics are clear.
The highest defeat rate of the last four Barça coaches!
Indeed, unlike the last two seasons, the number of points at mid-season is low. Two years ago, Xavi's gang had 50 and last year 41 compared to only 38 this year. Worse, the German has a 25% defeat rate at Barcelona, the highest compared to the club's last four managers. Despite the great promises seen in the game, the 59-year-old technician will quickly have to find his way back to success otherwise he will experience a much less exciting season than expected.
