Review of Barcelona interview Flick: iPad, kebab and flight mode
8:05pm, 22 May 2025【Football】
May 22nd News Today marks the first anniversary of Barcelona's interview with Frick. The Daily Sports Daily reviewed the meeting and conversation that changed Barcelona's history.
A five-hour interview in London last May 22 ended up winning Frick as Barcelona head coach.
Early in the morning of the same day, Deco and Boyan took a British Airways flight to London. In the evening, they returned to Barcelona with a decision, which, after being recognized by Laporta, completely changed Barcelona's history.
Barcelona met with Frick in search of Xavi's replacement, and the interview was held at Israeli agent Pini Zahavi's home in Mayfair district, London.
Frick made the most of this meeting opportunity and showed himself perfectly. He prepared for several months in advance without missing any details. He took out an iPad from his bag with an app designed specifically for the coach, which stored his plans. It reminds of Mourinho's 2008 display of his Barcelona plan with electronic devices, but Frick is luckier than the Portuguese.
Through this app, Frick demonstrates his tactical philosophy, player analysis and team planning. He believes that with the player's personal potential, Barcelona should have fought for all the honors. He also showed his inspection report on Barcelona reserve players and mentioned some young talents from La Macia's youth training camp, such as Kubasi, Pedri and Yamal, saying they "can be the best players in their respective positions."
Frick did not promise to win the championship, but said he would work hard. He stressed that there is no need for signings because the current lineup has enough strength to achieve results that satisfy fans.
At the same time, the mobile phones on the scene kept receiving messages and kept ringing. News about the Barcelona interview with Frick spread quickly, and reporters called the staff on site for confirmation, so some people at the interview had to turn on the flight mode to stay focused.
Nevertheless, Barcelona still has doubts about Frick's verbal communication skills, fearing that there will be communication barriers between him and the players. In addition, Frick's unfamiliarity with Barcelona's culture and the Spanish media ecosystem has also raised some questions.
Due to the tight time, when everyone was hungry, they ordered takeaway kebabs. Whether the food is delicious or not is not the point. After replenishing energy, Frick continued to elaborate on his football philosophy. Deco and Boyan were deeply attracted and were impressed by Frick's coaching ability and personal charm. Deco clearly supports Frick, but the final decision is still in Laporta's hands.
A few days later, Frick received a positive answer and became Barcelona's new head coach.
This time, Laporta was not disappointed with his decision. Today, a year later, Barcelona has achieved success under Frick, winning La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup.
None of this could have been possible without that meeting that changed the history of the club.
