FC Barcelona is going through a tense period in the locker room following the 3-3 draw against Club Brugge in the UEFA Champions League, a result that has raised internal and external alarms alike.

The players of the team feel that Hansi Flick's tactical decisions are far from adapting to the club's current situation and that the departure of Iñigo Martínez last summer has left a defensive wound that is still open. Clues come not only from mistakes on the field but also from a growing discomfort behind the locker room walls.

FC Barcelona: exposed defenders and questioned system

FC Barcelona once again resorted to the high-pressure and advanced defense plan proposed by Hansi Flick, but the results show that the risk has turned into a weakness. In the match against Brugge, the three goals conceded came from quick counterattacks and defensive line errors. Barcelona has conceded 20 goals in this early part of the season.

The reading is clear: the system does not suit the players and fails to protect the spaces that opponents exploit effortlessly. Players in the squad internally acknowledged that "with two passes, they are in the area" and that the physical toll is already too heavy to sustain that style of play, as reported by Nacional Cat.

In this context, FC Barcelona sees the foundations of a defense that was a solid support for its aspirations just a season ago now teetering.

Hansi Flick under pressure: risky tactics with real cost

Coach Hansi Flick insists on solidifying his offensive and dominating style of play, but that philosophy faces resistance within the FC Barcelona locker room. The demand to execute intense pressure for 90 minutes without respite has been well-received so far, but the accumulation of errors and the likelihood of conceding goals have raised doubts among the players.

Flick defended his strategy after the draw: "We are Barça, and we play this way," he declared, but that same statement fueled the feeling that the team lacks a plan B. In that debate, certain first-team players question whether sticking to a model that exposes FC Barcelona to dangerous ball losses is sustainable. Meanwhile, confidence in the system diminishes.

Divided locker room and sense of urgency at FC Barcelona

FC Barcelona not only faces a tactical problem but also a growing tension in the locker room that signals weariness and lack of harmony. Some players desire greater tactical pragmatism, while others continue to advocate for Flick's offensive courage.

The reality is that the departure of Íñigo Martínez last summer left the defense without a reference point, and FC Barcelona has suffered the consequences. The squad begins to point out that this void has not been filled and that the system risks too much without adjustment. Additionally, the fact that the team is currently in eleventh place in the Champions League group with only seven points heightens the sense of urgency. The internal atmosphere is no longer just concern; it is unease.

FC Barcelona faces a strategic dilemma that goes beyond a single result: adapt Hansi Flick's system or resign to repeating structural errors. Alarms have been sounded, the locker room reflects fatigue from tactics deemed aggressive for the moment, and continuing that model without adjustments could incur even greater costs. The pressure to change and find a real balance is already tangible and defines a new phase in the blaugrana project.
