‘I have to talk to him‘ — Hansi Flick vows internal talks with Barcelona captain following Stamford Bridge humiliation

FC Barcelona travelled to Stamford Bridge final night time hoping to safe a well-known win, however that hope got here crashing down because the Catalan membership suffered a 3–0 drubbing by the west London aspect.

One participant who didn’t cowl himself in glory was Ronald Araujo. Sporting the captain’s armband, he let his workforce down within the UEFA Champions League, not for the primary time in latest historical past, following his debacles towards PSG and Inter Milan in successive seasons.

After the sport, Hansi Flick was requested in regards to the Uruguayan’s actions and, as quoted by Sports activities Worldhe stated:

“I’ve to speak to him, watch the clips, and analyse it. The second foul may have occurred, however he shouldn’t have pulled the participant down. These items occur in soccer.”

Though Hansi Flick didn’t throw Ronald Araujo beneath the bus in entrance of the media, he would certainly be dissatisfied with what the South American did final night time. It’s excessive time he began reining in his recklessness.

For a participant carrying the captain’s armband at FC Barcelona, his performances in massive Champions League video games are merely not acceptable. Lengthy gone are the times when Araujo seemed like a beacon of reliability towards the world’s high attackers.

He appears to have stopped progressing, and his growth seems to have stalled. All that is leading to a half-baked model of the Uruguayan that Barcelona are pressured to belief. Allow us to wait and see how issues play out for Araujo within the coming months.
