As suggested to Flick: Give up the high-position press. If you still play like this against Real Madrid, it will be very risky.

"Aspen" wrote an article to remind Barcelona coach Flick, urging him to consider temporarily abandoning his "non-negotiable" high-pressing and extremely risky playing style before the upcoming El Clasico.

The article admitted that this tactic brought great success to Barcelona last season, winning three domestic championships and making the team feel "invincible." However, the author pointedly pointed out that Flick himself once said that the success of this system is based on "perfect pressing, communication and concentration", and the current Barcelona obviously does not have these conditions.

The Western media listed three core problems: first, the team as a whole lacks the energy as last season; second, players like Raphinha, who are crucial to high-position pressing, have suffered injuries; finally, some players (named Conde) are in poor condition and are prone to being "absent-minded."

These problems have been magnified in recent competitions. The article recalled that Paris Saint-Germain "played" Barcelona in the second half, and Sevilla "let all their difficulties surface." In the last game against Girona, if the opponent's forward had not squandered as many as four single-shot opportunities, Barcelona would have already lost.

In the end, Araujo's "miracle" goal when he was a guest center was able to escape the danger. Therefore, the Western media concluded that continuing to adhere to this high-risk style of play in the national derby in the current state is tantamount to "acting recklessly."
