I've been reading a lot of talk about Real Madrid lately, with almost everyone favoring this club.
Why doesn't anyone believe Barcelona can be a strong contender and even reach the final next season?
Anyone who follows Barcelona's development will surely agree with my opinion, as Hansi Flick's arrival has slowly brought positive changes to the club.
It's very convincing that Barcelona can compete very well with the squad they have now.
Hansi Flick certainly did a great job, but let's not forget that he was already building on the good work done by the previous coach
You can't do miracles in one season, let's say it's always the result of something that's already there, in this case the previous work was useful
Anyone writing off Barcelona in the champions League is probably not current with their recent forms or does not understand the game well. Barcelona is a very tough team to contend with especially now under Hansi Flick. The recent signings and improvement of some of their previous players. Even though it appears that Barcelona is not usually lucky in the champions League but they will definitely be a hard nut to crack this season. Come 16th September, champion's league will kick off and every doubt will clear. But so far, if I'm to take a stand, I may not give it Barcelona to win this year's UCL but would possibly cross the semi final stage.
