Barcelona coach warns the whole team: rush hard at the beginning of the season and throw away Real Madrid! La Liga can only win the championship with 90 points

In the first round of La Liga, Barcelona defeated Mallorca 3-0 and got a good start. On August 19, World Sports wrote an article pointing out that Barcelona coach Frick was not satisfied with this 3-0 match. Frick warned the whole team: to rush hard at the beginning of the season and to get rid of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid as much as possible.

This summer, Real Madrid introduced Wyson, Carreras, Arnold, and Mastantono, and their strength further improved; Atletico Madrid also spent 170 million euros, introducing 9 new players including Baenina, Hanzko, Cardoso, and Laspadori. In contrast, Barcelona only introduced goalkeeper Joan Garcia for 25 million and rented Rashford from Manchester United.

"World Sports" stated that although Barcelona spends money to recruit players far less than Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, Frick's team has advantages: Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid compete in the Club World Cup, and rest and preparation are affected; Barcelona's training is more systematic, especially at the beginning of the season, Barcelona's physical fitness will inevitably be better than Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. Against the background of this, Barcelona coach Frick formulated a strategic plan: at the beginning of the La Liga season, he would establish an advantage as much as possible, and to get rid of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, that is, to "grab the start."

Frick puts high demands on Barcelona. In the first round, he defeated Mallorca 3-0. Frick believes that after two opponents were sent off, Barcelona's performance was only 50%, far from reaching the high standard of 100%. Frick was not satisfied with this.

In the 2023-24 season, Barcelona played very well at the start, scoring 33 points in 11 wins in the first 12 rounds, surpassing Real Madrid and 10 points, setting the tone of winning the championship. However, in November, Barcelona was in trouble and scored only 5 points in seven La Liga games. After half a trip, Barcelona was overtaken by Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, ranking only third. Fortunately, Barcelona turned the tide and finally won the La Liga championship with 88 points.

"Monthly Sports" pointed out that in Barcelona's second year, Frick did not want the "November shadow" to appear again. So from the first game of the season, Frick emphasized 100% concentration and investment. If he only scored 5 points in seven games last season, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid will not give Barcelona a chance to overtake.

Barcelona won the La Liga championship in the last two times, and scored 88 points in the 2022-23 and 2024-25 seasons. He was 10 points ahead of Real Madrid in the last time and led Real Madrid in the last time by 4 points. World Sports said that in Frick's view, it is difficult to win the La Liga 88 points in the new season. If Barcelona wants to defend the title successfully, 90 points is the minimum standard.
