Flick: We and Chelsea both want to control the ball and press high. Guardiola is the best coach.
Will you consider changing the plan for tomorrow's game?
- We will always adjust our tactics based on our opponents, and we will take all necessary measures against our opponents to see what opportunities we have. But the situation always varies.
About Chelsea
- They are one of the best teams in the world, their development is incredible, their players, their coaches...it's great to watch them play, they are a young team. It should be a good game for us and we have to give it our all. We are confident that we will try our best tomorrow.
About Lewandowski
- He has worked very hard during his recovery since his injury in October. He's been in really good shape since he's come back and he's shown that in every game. He needs to score goals and he still wants them. He made a huge contribution to the team.
Regarding Maresca's praise for Barcelona coached by Guardiola
- We are very similar to Chelsea, we both want to have the ball and press high. His evaluation of Guardiola was normal. At that time, everyone was fascinated by his (Guardiola) Barcelona. When he went to Germany, I wouldn't say we copied his tactics, but I did follow him and learn his coaching style. He created a unique concept that you cannot simply copy. In my opinion, Guardiola is the best coach, so many people follow his footsteps.
About Rafinha
- step by step. What matters is that he is back. As for his playing time and number of appearances, we still need to observe. I'm so happy to have him back, we saw the magic he brought in just a few minutes the other day.
About Rashford
- I'm very happy with him. He was ill a few days ago and was unable to play. We will decide tomorrow whether he will start. I've been following his career and he's got a lot of talent and it showed here. It was a joy to watch him play, he always had a smile on his face. Plus, he can enjoy the weather.
Regarding the recurrence of Raphinha's injury before his return
- I am not angry at the medical staff, they are very professional. Raphinha’s relapse is a thing of the past and we may have made some mistakes in dealing with these relapses, but we all make mistakes.
About Barcelona's great form
- You can't pick the perfect time to play a game and it was a good test for us. The team has improved a lot in recent weeks with many players returning from injury and Pedri should also be back at the weekend, which is good news.
About Eric Garcia playing in midfield
– It’s possible, there are many options, we’ll see tomorrow. He performed very well against Athletic Bilbao and I was very happy with his performance.
Is tomorrow's game a key contest to avoid the play-offs?
——Our goal is to advance to the top 16, but we know it will not be easy. Even if you can't advance directly to the top 16, you can still advance through the play-offs to win the Champions League. We'll have to wait and see what happens tomorrow.
