Hansi Flick FC Barcelona press conference

Hansi Flick admits that running a high defensive line carries built-in danger, yet he insists proper pressing and locked distances flip it into a massive strength. The stats back the gamble: Barcelona has only managed one clean sheet in recent matches while they've scored a ton of goals. Even though he acknowledges those risks, Flick is dead set on keeping his tactical philosophy intact instead of changing course. It really makes you wonder if this approach means attacking at all costs.
