Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick is growing increasingly concerned by the attitude of his players for the season ahead.
That’s according to **[Diario Sport](https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/cabreo-hansi-flick-plantilla-barca-120701651)**, who have on Sunday provided an insight into the situation.
Barcelona of course got the defence of their La Liga crown up and running yesterday evening, in a meeting with RCD Mallorca.
And though the Blaugrana ultimately emerged dominant victors, boss Flick was far from satisfied.
Speaking to the media on the back of the full-time whistle at Son Moix, the German tactician admitted:
“I am not happy with the way we played the 2nd-half. My team played at 50% to 60%, and this is not acceptable against nine men. I need to speak to the players.”
And if the latest word stemming from the media 24 hours on is anything to go by, then this is not a new concern for Flick and his staff.
As per a report from Sport:
‘Flick has been a bit worried during the pre-season. The German coach is not confident in how the team is and believes that there could be some relaxation in a squad that looks far superior to the rivals, especially in La Liga.’
