Another of the many topics that Hansi Flick<\/strong> addressed in the press conference prior to the match<\/a> between RCD Mallorca and<\/strong> Barcelona<\/strong> was the endless debate about who should be the starting goalkeeper for the Blaugrana, whether the homegrown I\u00f1aki Pe\u00f1a<\/strong> or the experienced Wojciech Szcz\u0119sny<\/strong>. It is worth remembering that the Polish goalkeeper was signed by the Catalan side last October as a more than valid alternative to provide depth to the goalkeeper position.<\/p> However, to date, Szcz\u0119sny<\/strong> has not yet played minutes with Barcelona<\/strong>, which has sparked some debate about when he will have the opportunity to debut, especially considering that I\u00f1aki Pe\u00f1a has had contrasting performances<\/strong>. Some of them have shown very high performance, but on other occasions, there have been doubts about whether he is up to the standard of a goalkeeper of Bar\u00e7a<\/strong>‘s caliber and the consistency expected of him.<\/p> Now, regarding the goalkeeping situation, the German coach has stuck to his previous stance on the issue, reaffirming that there are no reasons for Szcz\u0119sny<\/strong> to replace I\u00f1aki Pe\u00f1a<\/strong>. “He is doing very well, but there is currently no plan for him to debut.<\/strong> As I said, I\u00f1aki is our starter,” stated Hansi Flick<\/strong>.<\/p> With these statements, the Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg native once again backs I\u00f1aki Pe\u00f1a<\/strong>, who is gradually emerging as a more solid candidate to be Barcelona’s starting goalkeeper in the future, as a natural replacement for Marc-Andr\u00e9 ter Stegen<\/strong>. This decision seemingly rules out the option of Szcz\u0119sny taking the position<\/a>, who had previously praised the performance of ’13’ by stating that “there is no reason to change the goalkeeper.”<\/p> On another note, Hansi Flick<\/strong> also took the opportunity to talk about the golden return of one of his players who could not participate in the match against UD Las Palmas, Marc Casad\u00f3<\/strong>, who was absent due to his expulsion in the previous clash against Celta de Vigo (2-2).<\/p> The Heidelberg native highlighted the importance of the central midfielder from Sant Pere de Vilamajor in Barcelona’s setup, praising his key attributes and his contribution to the team’s functioning. “He has progressed a lot since the beginning of the season, he has also played for the national team. He reads games and opponents very well.<\/strong> He knows where he needs to be; he knows when he has made a mistake to move elsewhere. He is very good with positioning and the ball<\/strong>,” he concluded.<\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For Hansi Flick, there is still no debate in the FC Barcelona goal, as he continues to bet on I\u00f1aki Pe\u00f1a.
