\u201cPSG were better than us \u2013 to be more precise, they were fresher and tactically they were very good. We don\u2019t like it, it hurts, but we have to accept the result against PSG.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn the other hand, in Seville we didn\u2019t give 100%. The first half was terrible, a terrible game. It\u2019s a bit worrying, but it\u2019s important to understand that in the season it\u2019s not going to be easy, that we have to be focused and that if we don\u2019t give 100%, they can beat us. We must do much better.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t think we have to worry, only that if we want to have a season like last or better, if we don\u2019t give 100% in every game and we are focused, what happened to us in Seville could happen again. But we have a very intelligent group and everyone has understood it: we have to work, recover and relax.\u201d<\/p>\n Szczesny also responded to criticism that has been levelled at Barcelona and Flick<\/a> over the a supposed lack of tactical flexibility, particularly in big matches.<\/p>\n \u201cI think we tested last season what our system can offer us. Yes it\u2019s risky, but when we play at our highest level, there aren\u2019t many teams that can compete with us, but we have to be at our highest level. That\u2019s why, although losing the game against Sevilla is painful, it\u2019s a good lesson because, because you have to understand that it can become embarrassing if you don\u2019t do things right.<\/p>\n \u201cSo I don\u2019t think that\u2019s the problem. I would never criticize the system, but I would criticise the way we play in that system in a given game. And those 2 games this season where we didn\u2019t do well enough. One was against Rayo and the other in Seville, it\u2019s a clear message that we have to do better. The system is not a problem. It\u2019s usually how you act within the system.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The post Wojciech Szczesny on Barcelona struggles – “The system is not a problem, it’s how you act”<\/a> appeared first on Football Espa\u00f1a<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The last week has been difficult for Barcelona, who lost back-to-back matches against Paris Saint-Germain and Sevilla.
