The tide is turning now as Madrid were the club in pain at the start of the season but now it's Barcelona who have really crumbled in the last few weeks leading up to the halfway point of the season.

Barcelona have had a lot of problems it seems and Flick still can't fix this which makes the situation even more difficult for them. Even if you look at their total losses this season it is the same as what they had last season which of course this obviously has to be a lot of improvement because after all Flick was previously expected to restore the era of Barcelona but what is happening now is a very difficult situation that they get.

Something has gone wrong with the Barcelona system in recent weeks and it seems that if things continue like this then the praise for Flick at the start of the season will be inversely proportional to the criticism that continues to occur in the second half of the season if Barcelona's performance does not improve again.

It is insane how things turned against them and remember how Barcelona was talking about a lifetime contract for Flick... But there is nothing left of what seemed to be one of the best Barcelona teams in a long time. Unbelievable how they have beaten Real Madrid and now it is hard to imagine that they are going to play for the title anymore.

If Atletico wins the game they still have in hand, it is 6 points already and Barcelona is unlikely to have a long winning streak.

Many have high expectations of Flick after a very good start to the season and not a few fans even consider that the Flick Era is the best era compared to the last few Barcelona seasons just because their start to the season went more than expected but in the end a good start to the season is not a guarantee for him to continue to survive and succeed in continuing the season and now is a test that actually inevitably must be overcome immediately.
Their last 10 matches in all competitions ended with 3 wins 2 draws and 5 defeats obviously this is not a good statistic even with these results they were thrown from the top of the comfortable standings which makes this should be a reference to be able to change conditions for the better because it is not impossible when the situation continues the wave of praise that previously existed will turn into unending criticism for Flick.

Now the problem in the middle of the season is finally much more serious for Barcelona, thrown into 3rd place with a gap of 2 points from Madrid and 3 points from Atletico who still have 1 match remaining, this will clearly disturb the mentality of the players if Flick cannot anticipate from now on.
