"I saw many things we did well, but I also saw some we didn't do well", explained Hansi Flick after the team won 3-1 against Elche to get back on track. It was a tough match, but it meant the three points were earned, and he went on to say "We have to improve. We are more confident with this victory, it is another step, but we have to continue. I am happy and we have to think positively about the games to come".

The match was definitely not easy, which the coach highlighted in the prematch press conference, stating "I like how Elche use the ball and also how they press with a lot of intensity". Both FC Barcelona and Elche made a lot of chances and more could have been scored as Hansi Flick mentioned, who always examines how they can be better in each game.

That involves progressing as a group and individually, and when asked about specific names, he said that they can take another step, such as Fermín: "He can still give more. He is a good player for us, he is very active. He is always there when creating chances and scoring goals". The German coach was also happy with the work done by Marcus Rashford and Frenkie de Jong – two "important" parts of the team.

After this win, Hansi Flick is already looking forward to the upcoming challenges before the next international break in November. "We want to win in the Champions League and then in Vigo to take more steps forward. We have to be positive. I am happy with the victory against Elche", confessed a contented Flick, albeit always with the mindset of developing with each game.
