A young player like Vitor Roque should not bother Barcelona, if Barcelona have a long-term plan. Barcelona should start planning for the long term now. Because it is unlikely that Barcelona will improve very quickly. Barcelona are now in a financial crisis. So Barcelona management can't make big funds to buy players. Barcelona cannot improve quickly without buying talented and experienced players.

Flick is an experienced coach. Flick should definitely plan for the long term and try to gradually stabilize the Barcelona squad. Barcelona may not be able to dominate La Liga next season, but if the team is stable, Barcelona can return to their old form and challenge any big team. Youngster Vitor Roque was added to the squad by Barcelona at a cost of 40 million. Flick should try to make a talented player like Roque more experienced.

They will demand the highest result from Flick, he will have to win La Liga, I can’t say that Xavi had a bad season, but he left the team because he wanted it himself, disagreements with Laporta simply did not give them the opportunity to move on.

And now if we try to objectively assess the strengths of Real and Barcelona, then it seems logical to me that it will be very difficult for Flick to compete with Real, it is possible but it will be on the verge of what is possible for Barcelona, unless Real has some kind of decline, although I don’t see that no prerequisites. We are waiting for the start of the season and then will evaluate the results of Flick’s work.
