Canizares: Barcelona is affected by injuries and mentality, and it is impossible to repeat the level of last season

October 9th, Barcelona had suffered two consecutive defeats, and former Spanish goalkeeper Canizares and others analyzed and commented on this when participating in the program.

Canizares first pointed out that injuries have a great impact on Barcelona. "When a team has a lot of injuries, it shows that something is not doing well enough. Flick's tactical system requires players to have extremely high physical preparation and a dedicated attitude, but the team is currently unable to maintain this state."

Reporter Tony Padilla, who also participated in the program, agreed with Cañizares's view. He also talked about the departure of veteran defenseman Inigo Martinez this summer, which caused the team to lose an important leader. "Inigo not only understands the team's tactics, but is also very influential on young players. He is a father-like figure in the Barcelona locker room."

Another reporter Carlos Carpio also said: "When a strong team experiences failure and changes coaches, they will be full of enthusiasm. "Start again with passion, but it is very difficult to maintain this intensity." He also quoted Cross's previous remarks: "From the 75th minute of the game, Barcelona began to collapse." The lack of tactical changes and injuries made it difficult for Flick to maintain a high level of performance for 90 minutes.

Canizares continued: "When a club reaches its peak, repeating success is the most difficult. People will relax after receiving praise, and will become nervous when they are criticized. Barcelona exceeded the 100% level last season, and now it is almost impossible to reach that level again."

Program host Alex - Delano pointed out, "The absence of key players such as Yamal, Rafinha and Fermin caused Barcelona's offense to be affected. Rashford, who had just joined, was unable to shoulder the heavy responsibility alone."

Finally, Canizares also talked about the wrong decisions made by the Valencia club he had played for. Valencia fired coach Marcelino and manager Alemani. "In the history of football, I have never seen a more regrettable decision than firing the coach who led the team to the Champions League and the general manager who built the team."
