'If you don't know how to bullfight, why do you get involved?': the latest Barça - Real Sociedad news

BarcelonaBarça took a landslide and are now the sole leader in La Liga. Hansi Flick's men, who benefited from their numerical superiority for over an hour, beat Real Sociedad without difficulty. Here are some quick notes.

Being first in the league is child's play with this Barça

Making a Barça without knowing it. The game ended when Real Sociedad, who had started much better, was left, in the 17th minute, with one man less to go over the top. The Basque team felt so comfortable on the pitch that they decided to do a Barça, that is, defend with their line practically in the middle. Risk is good when you look for it, work and minimise the damage. But when it comes to you a bit spontaneously, it can ruin any afternoon. Poor Elustondo, a good marker and an even better person, has already learned the bitter lesson. Manolete, if you don't know how to bullfight, why do you get involved?

Three kisses in one week. The season could end tomorrow with the Super Cup as the only prize and that could be considered good. It is clear that Barça has once again hooked people through the game. But it is doing so with a large representation of young players. Good proof of this trend is that, in five days, Barcelona has celebrated the debut of Cubarsí, Gerard Martín and Casadó as goalscorers, three boys who reached the elite in different circumstances. The first is a prodigy, the second a genius. outsider and the third a worker. But all three agreed that the kiss on the shield should precede their first cry. Masía, you.

A winning combination. It is only fair to remember that this Barça is not just for children. In Grandpa Flick's cellar there is room for young and fresh wine and also for older wines. If Lamine Yamal is the best bottle without sediment, Lewandowski would resolve any meal with the skill of a crianza matured in the best wood. On the way to 37 years, the Pole offers a nose as fine as in the first tastings. He does not press as before, but for days, based on goals, he has earned himself to remain on the Barça menu for at least one more season. He has 34 goals since the summer. It is his record at Barcelona.

One of the best news. The thrashing of Real Sociedad erases Tuesday's frustration in the Cup and fills Barça with confidence ahead of the visit to Benfica in the Champions League. In addition, with the rotations Flick has empowered players like Araujo, who are not used to being substitutes. The good news is piling up as we approach the decisive third of the season. But there is one that should not go unnoticed. Apart from Christensen, who this year is determined to pay tribute to Vermaelen, there is no muscle injury. There are no big clubs in Europe that can say the same. Great work by thestaff. About the new members and the old ones. Little is said about it.
