Barcelona's performance this season is a sort of surprise to many people, especially the fans of the La Liga. There was a lot of speculation that after the departure of Hernandez, Barcelona would definitely suffer for a while compared to their inability to completely resuscitate from their financial incapability. That speculation became as clear as real when the major rival of Barcelona landed one of the superstars in the world of football - Mbappe. It seems that there wouldn't be a place for Barcelona to compete against Real Madrid both in the Champions League and in La Liga.
Little did we know that Barcelona is going to start up excellently for this season. This is evidence in their 100% record so far in the La Liga. If they should maintain this level of consistency till the middle of the season, it might be a La Liga for them this year.
I think most of us do underestimate the influence managers have other the performance and the survival of a club. We have underrated the efforts some managers are putting to bring out the best of their clubs from the little number of good players they have within their first squad and how to manager the shuffling whenever the need arises. Well, like Pep Guardiola have always proven his worth and contributions as manager to the Manchester City, it is good to also see how Hansi Flick has been working hard to resuscitate the performance of one of the La Liga's best club this season as compared to their somewhat woeful performance in the previous season. I hope the manager can keep up with this good movement thus far.
