"Rashford is ruled out, although he is better. Raphinha can play,"
"He's an important player and we miss him. I see him in training. He always improves and increases the dynamics and intensity and that's good to see. For me, he was the best in the world for me last season."
"Today's training session was very good. I saw confidence, we scored goals. We lost Thursday's game [against Atletico]; it was a lesson, but life goes on. We have to accept defeat and we have to focus and be confident. We have a lot of quality and we can beat anyone."
Raphinha is available again after a thigh issue and should return for Barcelona's trip to Girona, while Marcus Rashford remains out with a knee problem. Pedri is expected to return soon from a muscle issue, but Gavi is unlikely to be back until March. Barcelona look to move a point clear of Real Madrid and must respond after a 4-0 Copa del Rey semi-final loss to Atletico. Flick praised training, urged greater intensity and dynamics, warned Girona are well-organised, and stressed focus to avoid repeating earlier lapses and secure victory.
