Barcelona's German coach, HansiFlick, has made it clear that the club must follow its identity and offer the best version of itself in the next match against Getafe, after the league break. In his message, the coach emphasized the need to control the game, maintain a solid structure and concentrate on every detail, since the rival, led by JoséBordalás, is demanding and will not allow mistakes. Flick stressed that, more than ever, it is essential to play one's own game, with control of the ball and clear organization, to continue the good streak that the team completed in the first phase of the competition.
The match will also be defined by the presence of GabrielJesús as a starter for the first time in the squad. Flick expressed his complete confidence in the Brazilian striker, highlighting his strength both inside and outside the area and the intensity he brings to the team. “I have seen how he has improved with us and I am super convinced of what he can give us,” commented the coach, pointing out that Jesús will be key to generating offensive solutions in a match that will require efficiency in the rival area. The commitment to the Brazilian comes in the midst of the absence of Raphinha, one of Barça's important casualties, which makes the arrival of Jesús even more relevant.
In addition to Jesús, the eleven will feature the return of JoanGarcía to the goal and the inclusion of Pedri and PauCubarsí in the substitutes. Flick also responded to Bordalás' praise for Barça's play, both with and without the ball, and reiterated the importance of collective work in both facets. "It is part of our job and mentality to play well with the ball and without the ball. When you have the ball you can recover, but when you don't have it you have to press and be attentive," he explained.
The team's objective is to extend its winning streak in the League and maintain its strength at home against Getafe, who have yet to achieve a victory in any of their 21 visits to the Camp Nou. With trust in Jesus and the structure that Flick has imposed, Barcelona seeks to continue consolidating itself as one of the most competitive teams of the season.
