Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick reportedly kept his players in the dressing room following their 1-1 draw with Rayo Vallecano last weekend.
The result marked the end of the reigning LaLiga champions’ flawless start to the new campaign.
Before the draw, Barça had opened their season with a dominant 3-0 victory over Mallorca and followed it up with a narrow 3-2 win against Levante.
Despite the unbeaten run, Flick has remained dissatisfied with the team’s overall displays. After the Vallecano match, he is said to have addressed the squad in private, expressing his frustrations.
According to The Athletic, the German tactician reiterated the points he made publicly during his post-match press conference but in far more forceful language behind closed doors.
“The most important thing is that, when the transfer window is closed, everyone who stays is 100 per cent committed to this club,” Flick told reporters after the draw.
“No egos, because egos kill success. Last season, we played as one unit. We have to be like this again now.”
