3:00 am on October 2, Beijing time, the second round of the 2024-25 UEFA Champions League group stage, Barcelona will host Young Boys at home. Before the match, Barcelona coach Flick attended a press conference and talked about the team's current situation.
On facing Young Boys:
-We have analyzed this team, they have participated in the Champions League before, although the start of this season has not been ideal, we see that they have excellent players and a strong counter-attack ability. They are a young and energetic team, and we must be fully prepared.
On the most pressure-filled match:
-In the end, when you communicate with the players, you need to be in a state where you can manage the pressure. Pressure exists, and if we want to win, we need to manage the pressure like everyone else. For example, we must forget about the match against Monaco. Everything changed in 10 minutes, this time we are playing at home, it is different, this match and Sunday's match are both very important.
On De Jong's return:
-Yes, it is good news that De Jong can return to the team, whether he plays for 5 minutes or 10 minutes. This is very important for us. We have some players injured, and in October, we will have three players returning. We are pleased that they are coming back, and De Jong is also happy to be back. If he has the opportunity to play, he will make an appearance, I don't know if it will be for 45 minutes, 20 minutes or 10 minutes, but I believe he will do a great job.
On the opponent's counter-attack:
-If you make a lot of mistakes, it is more difficult to defend, for example, against Osasuna. When the opponent's counter-attack is excellent, you must reduce mistakes. The players have done well, when we have possession, we know how to play, how to cooperate, and how to position ourselves. The key is to reduce mistakes, we must accept this and clearly know our responsibility on the field.
On the Madrid derby incident:
-I don't know what happened exactly. What happened? (The reporter explains to Flick) I think we must identify these people and take action against them. When so many people do that, it becomes difficult, but such situations should not happen, that's all I can say.
On the importance of this match in this type of competition format:
-We will send out the best lineup to defeat Young Boys. They lost the first match, but we cannot be arrogant. We want to win three points, in this format, we must get as many points as possible from the beginning.
On the midfield situation:
-In terms of De Jong, we have to see how the match progresses. Eric Garcia's red card made us lose a midfielder, and we don't have many players in this position. It is important for the midfield to make fewer mistakes.
On winning the opponent's respect:
-We lost to Monaco, but I am not interested in what happened before. We want to achieve success in the Champions League, and to do that, we must win. I am optimistic about this. The team is playing well, we can do it, and if we can win respect again, we will do it. This is what we must do.
On Ter Stegen:
-I will not talk about players who are not in the team, he is not a member of our team. But as a Barcelona player, no one's starting position is guaranteed, you will see this.
