We lost, yes, but let me show you why Hansi Flick is a chess player
1. This match isn’t important.
Running your first team players against PSG in the group phase will earn you nothing. Finishing in top 8 is the goal.
2. The illusion
He has given PSG the illusion that this is how Barcelona will play in case they meet against in the most important part of the competition, hence they won’t be expecting surprises the next time we do.
3. El Classico on Sunday
Winning el Classico boosts Barcelona up in the La liga, allowing us to possibly win the league at the start of March so we can channel our focus to the champions league which we so desire
4. Losing against PSG doesn’t mean Barcelona can’t win the champions league, no winner of the trophy has gone unbeaten
The end justifies the means, let’s come back to this in May
