February can be the key month in the league, since neither Barcelona nor Atlétic that will suffer a lot of wear with its tie against the City to access the round of 16. Therefore, Hansi Flick considers that it is time to tighten. And so he has claimed it to his team. “It is important to win several matches in a row to put pressure on Madrid,” he said.
The Barça coach admits that being seven points behind complicates the fight. “The situation we have is our fault. We have lost many points. It is not easy with seven points but we will try. The team will fight, ”he promised for the outcome of the title.
If you leave 5 or 10% you cannot win a rival of the League, because they struggle to stay. I want the team to play 100%”
The German hopes that the two clean weeks it will have after being among the top 8 in the Champions League will serve to load the batteries. “Players need rest and we will also have more time to train. I think it will help us, those two weeks will come well. But I just want to talk about my team, ”he said not to analyze how whites can affect them.
Before receiving the Alavés, another team from the lower part of the classification, such as Leganés and Las Palmas, who already won in Montjuïc, Flick warned the Blaugrana that they cannot get clueless. “If you leave 5 or 10% you can’t win a league rival, because they struggle to stay. I want the team to play 100%, ”he harangued.
Players need rest and we will also have more time to train. I think those two free weeks will come well “
It was not the only message to the template. The coaching staff has also influenced the good starts of the Vitorians. “In three of the last five games they have marked before the quarter of an hour. We have to be attentive to that, ”he said.

However, Flick wants to disassemble the theory that Barça is not good to play when eating. “I do not look at the statistics, for me it is important to be prepared and show from the beginning hunger to win. I think the team will show that it can play equally well at two in the afternoon, ”he predicted.

In addition, it has the discharge of Iñigo Martínez, which is already recovered from the injury that occurred in the Super Cup final. “Iñigo has returned and we are happy. Instead, Dani Olmo needs a little more time, ”he revealed.
What looks like a closed debate is the goal, after the substitution of Iñaki Peña against Benfica, Valencia and Atalanta. “Right now it’s like this: Szczesny is number 1,” he settled.
