‘Flick is really starting to p*ss me off’: Fans fume at Barca boss for keeping one player on the bench v Getafe
Since returning from injury, Ansu Fati has seen just two minutes of playing time across three matches.
On Wednesday, the young star remained an unused substitute as Barcelona faced Getafe at home.
Many fans are openly questioning why Ansu isn’t being given more minutes.
💬 Adout Adam: “Hansi Flick is really starting to piss me off. Why didn’t he bring Fati on?”
💬 FKNDWL: “I don’t understand why he talks so highly of Ansu Fati but doesn’t even give him 5 minutes. It’s giving me flashbacks to when Xavi said ‘Ansu is the club’s heritage’ and then the first thing he did was send him away.”
SportWiky: “Ansu deceived by another coached. First, they say they believe in him, then don’t give him a single minute. I am really disappointed in mister.”
Well, Ansu’s absence against Bordalas’ men is somewhat understandable, given Getafe’s notoriously rough playing style.
Risking a recently recovered player in such a physical match could be too much of a gamble.
Still, the overall lack of minutes for the young forward remains a worrying trend.
