"It's been one of those weeks when you take a minute to reflect on how grateful you are as a Barcelona fan. Being a champion is not about being dominant at all times. At Barcelona, that can be hard to remember playing in the generation after the tiki taka revolution. Great teams need to have humility. The more superstars you have, and the greater the expectations, the more important it is to be humble and not take winning for granted."
"Real Madrid is the club of Galácticos. When they're winning it feels like a blessing to have all those famous faces, but in a season like this, you can see that it's just as much a curse. Say what you want about Xabi Alonso, but in his young career as a manager, he's already proven himself by what he accomplished at Leverkusen. What happened for him in Germany was no accident. He has the managerial bona fides."
"But the most important person at the club is Hansi Flick because he has instilled humility into the team, and has taught those players the importance of professionalism, and putting the team above themselves. When you look at Barcelona, first and foremost, you see a healthy and positive dressing room, and you always have since the day Flick arrived. There is unity and belief in the mission, system, and culture."
Barcelona combines young elite talents with a culture of humility and unity under Hansi Flick, who emphasizes professionalism and putting the team first. The dressing room remains healthy and positive, with clear belief in the mission, system, and culture. Consecutive Spanish Supercopa wins demonstrate seriousness toward even minor competitions. The Copa del Rey has become more competitive as smaller clubs treat home matches like major moments, denying free passes. Real Madrid's Galácticos offer star power that can feel like a blessing or a curse; Xabi Alonso has proven managerial credentials, and Mbappe leads scoring but Madrid has not clearly improved.
