Hansi Flick appeared this Friday to analyze the culé news and the match against the Getafe. During the technician’s appearance there was one name that monopolized many of the questions: Lamine Yamal. The coach assured that he has to learn from this situation, since he had never had a muscle injury before, and wished him a great World. Regarding the blue team, he warned that they are in a great moment of form and highlighted their defense. In addition, he announced that next week they could return Raphinha and Bernal.
Getafe
“If you look at the last ten games, they would be second in the table. They defend very well, they have their own philosophy. The important thing is to have the right rhythm and not make too many mistakes.”

Lamine Yamal
“The situation is not easy for us or for him. He will also have to manage it and learn. It was his first muscle injury and he is very focused. He is motivated. He will arrive for the World Cup and come back stronger.”
Injury prevention
“We have to analyze everything. After the season we will have enough time. We will take a look at everything and see how to improve. We don’t like the injuries, but I’m going to focus on the next game, against Getafe.”
Bordalás on Flick
“I think he’s right and you have to focus on your team, but sometimes after a game there’s a lot of emotion and things are the way they are. We’re fighting, just like the players on the pitch.”
Casualties
“Everyone has to give one hundred percent for the team and for the rest of our teammates. We have six more games left and our goal is always to win and tomorrow will not be easy. We will have the necessary quality and we have to play a very good game.”
I am impressed with Gavi’s level after the injury
Bernal and Raphinha
“When they are ready and train with the team, they will be there. But, for now, they have not entered group training and none of them are available for tomorrow. I think that next week, although we have to go day by day, we will have better news.”
Leaders
“It has nothing to do with age, it’s personality. If you ask me about Gavi, he is different from before the injury. He is a more focused, more measured player. I am impressed with his level after the injury. He gives everything. He is always well connected with the team.”
Timing of Lamine’s injury
“He noticed something after the foul, but it didn’t seem serious, and he decided to take responsibility. Maybe it got worse, but you have to have the feeling. He had never had a muscle injury and it’s part of the learning curve. It’s another experience for him, it’s what he has to learn, the signals that your body transmits to you. At the beginning of the season he also missed a game and it didn’t go badly for us.”

Have the right to a play review
“I’m not an expert. For me it’s not easy and I don’t want to talk about these things. In games you have to give one hundred percent so you don’t have to depend on the referee’s decisions. I don’t want to talk about it, they don’t have an easy job. You have to focus on yourself.”
Bucket
“He returns from an injury and Cancelo has been playing very well. Football is like that. He has to show in every training session that he is back and at his best level. Now everyone has to give everything to be able to win LaLiga.”
Roony
“Of course he is ready. He is always ready, even when Lamine could play. As I said in the last appearance, he is a professional and trains very well. We will see tomorrow if he starts or comes off the bench.”
Everything that happens to Lamine affects everyone, a lot of noise is generated
Lamine’s emotional state
“For me, at his age, at 18, he is doing things very well. He has been under a lot of pressure, this is the third or fourth question about Lamine. Everything that happens to Lamine affects everyone, a lot of noise is generated. He has been at a fantastic level in recent weeks and he is a measured, smart, intelligent player, he knows what he wants… and this injury affects him, but his reaction is normal. Now we have to focus on the recovery process and that is what he wants to do. I wish him to play a fantastic World”.
