+27 goal difference compared to RM +10

High line.

Far exceeded expectations so far definitely... high line means we can press n dominate as well as guarantee chances at both ends, entertaining stuff

Barça is truly looking like Bayern did that one year under Flick.

Nobody can call him Hansi Fluke any longer, he's doing it again ffs.

he cannot be considered a fluke given he made all the right moves in such a team in Bayern.

managing an already successful team isn't as easy as it looks as many egos to manage and variables to calculate. the individual set of tactics he used game to game for Bayern's win told the story itself.

he is genuinely a very good manager.

Personally I'm most impressed with how he handled Raphinha. Who would have thought this guy's projection would be this astronomical? The dude was almost out the door 2 or 3 times. He was confined as a wide winger and unable to stretch his wings.

I'd have never imagined he could be a leader like that, i knew he's not up to his potential under Xavi but how he's performing now exceeded any expectations that I had. I mean not long ago this guy was strolling down the wing and couldn't get past anyone in a 1v1 duel

I just remembered Olmo is a La Masia product as well. That makes it 8 homegrown players to take part in this clasico.
