German coach Hans Flick spoke at the press conference before the match against Girona in the twenty-fourth round of the Spanish league, where he discussed the team's readiness after the recent defeat against Atletico Madrid in the King's Cup.

Regarding Barcelona's statement against referees, Flick said: "There are things I cannot change, we are all human and make mistakes, and we all need to improve, whether the team, the staff, or even the referees, we will learn from the mistakes and try to improve."

About the lineup and changes, he explained: "The lineup is always built on the team's needs, any ready player can be a starter, and we may make some changes depending on the match requirements."

Regarding facing defensive teams, he pointed out: "The opponent might play with five players at the back or with fast wings, but my focus is always on my players and their performance."

About Pedri and Gavi, he added: "Pedri will return this month, while Gavi will be evaluated later, but he is developing well and might return next month."

On education during the break, he continued: "We use the break to clarify things and develop players, it is important to start matches at the best level from the first minute."

Regarding Raphinha, he confirmed: "Raphinha is very important for the team, we always miss him, he increases the level of dynamics and intensity, for me, he was the best player last season."

On the Metropolitano lesson, he stated: "Atletico Madrid was prepared, played a match at Champions League level, we were not in the right disposition, but the defeat was a lesson, the important thing is how we handle upcoming matches and see the team's reaction."

About Rashford, he clarified: "Rashford has improved, but he will not be ready to face Girona, we will progress step by step, while Raphinha will be present."

Regarding the team's morale, he confirmed: "Today's training session was good, the players are confident, we scored goals, and the previous defeat was a lesson, we need to focus and trust our ability to win, and starting the match with focus from the beginning is very important against a team like Girona."
