Javi Martínez, a Qatar SC midfielder with a past at Athletic and Bayern Munich, analyzed Barça news on the ‘Jijantes’ Twitch channel. He has also referred to the Polish Robert Lewandowskiwith whom he coincided in the ranks of the German team, and the coach Hansi Flick, who sounds like a replacement for Xavi Hernández on the Barça bench after June 30: “Flick’s way of playing is total Barça.”
“At Barça there are many players who are not performing at last year’s level. This year they score goals very easily, they don’t follow the marks, the intensity is very low… that’s very difficult”Javi Martínez commented on the irregularity shown by Xavi Hernández’s team this season.
In his opinion, the absence of Sergio Busquets, now at Inter Miamiis one of the causes of the Barça collapse: “All teams need a player who is always thinking about what can happen when you lose the ball. And this is why I think Barça is so missing a figure like Busquets.”
From Xavi Hernández resigns to continue as Barça coach on June 30despite having a contract until 2025 with one more optional year, Javi martinez indicated that “I was shocked when
Lewandowski’s frustration
Regarding Lewandowski’s moment, with less success in front of goal this season, the former Athletic player commented that “Robert is frustrated that he doesn’t get balls. At Bayern he had had some discussion about this. He asks for balls near the area, which is where he becomes strong and, if they don’t get to him, he can’t be at his level.”
He has also referred to Hansi Flickone of the coaches who could take the reins of the Blaugrana bench next season: “He is a very clear coach, he always tells you what he thinks to your face. He is calm. You have to mess with him a lot for him to get angry. In the locker room, he first calms everyone down and then speaks.”
Of the technician’s methods he added that “Flick’s training sessions are intense but they are always with the ball. In Germany we all trained in the afternoon with a physical trainer and that is where the change of all the players comes. It is a different culture”. He has also commented that “Flick’s way of playing is total Barça. We played with him in the Pep style, with the centre-backs at the back and the ball coming out from there.”
