Getafe manager Jose Bordalas: ‘Hansi Flick should talk about his own team’ Getafe manager Jose Bordalas has encouraged Barcelona counterpart Hansi Flick to focus on his own team ahead of their meeting on Saturday afternoon at the Coliseum. Los Azulones host Barcelona at 16:15, in a fixture that the Blaugrana often struggle in. After a 1-0 win over Real Sociedad, Getafe are now up to 6th and have staved off relegation fears with six games to go.

They are currently on course for a European spot. “We’ve earned the right not to have to think about the standings, obviously. It’s very important at this stage of the championship,” he told Diario AS .

“We’ve always had a winning mentality, you know me. It’s what I try to instill in my players, not just in competition, but every day. Fortunately, we’ve accumulated a significant number of points and earned the privilege of not having to look at the standings.

We were in a really bad position in terms of points and the standings, and now it’s time to try and enjoy this final stretch of the championship. ” Facing Barcelona without Lamine Yamal On top of facing an in-form Getafe, Barcelona will have to do so without Lamine Yamal and Raphinha, the former ruled out for the rest of the season on Thursday . Bordalas was disppointed with the injury though.

“No relief. As you rightly say, I always want the best players on the pitch, without a doubt, because apart from being a coach, I’m a fan and I want to see the best players on the field. We’ve all been there; you always have players out.
