Barcelona star Lamine Yamal has expressed his admiration for manager Hansi Flick, praising his ability to communicate effectively with players. In an interview with Barca One, Yamal highlighted Flick’s approach, stating that the German tactician takes the time to explain his decisions and offer advice to players. Yamal credited Flick with giving him confidence, saying that the manager knows how to say the right thing at the right time.
Flick’s positive impact on Barcelona is evident, with the team enjoying a strong start to the season under his guidance.

Despite this, Yamal’s praise for Flick suggests that the players remain confident in their manager’s abilities.
In other La Liga news, Villarreal star Álex Baena has been revealed as the league’s top chance creator in 2024. According to statisticians StatMuse, Baena carved out 94 goalscoring chances in La Liga last year, 14 more than the player in second place, Barcelona’s Raphinha. Baena’s impressive form has been a key factor in Villarreal’s success, and his ability to create chances for his teammates will be crucial in the second half of the season.
Raphinha’s 80 chances created in La Liga last year is a notable achievement, and the Brazilian winger will be looking to build on this form in the new year. Real Madrid veteran Luka Modrić also impressed, creating 65 chances despite being used more as a substitute than a starter.
Baena’s performance is a testament to his growing reputation as one of La Liga’s top attacking talents. At just 23 years old, the Villarreal star has already established himself as a key player for his team, and his chances created tally will be one to watch in the second half of the season.
As the La Liga season continues, fans will be eager to see how Baena and Raphinha perform in the new year. With several teams still in contention for the title, the battle for supremacy in La Liga is set to be an exciting one.
