Speaking on Movistar+ (h/t SPORT), former Atletico Madrid midfielder Mario Suarez has questioned Barcelona manager Hansi Flick’s rotation and squad management.

The Spaniard pointed fingers at the German tactician’s handling of top players like Rodri, Pedri, and Lamine Yamal, arguing that the manager needed to make greater use of his squad to keep his key players fresh for the most demanding fixtures.

For starters, Suarez pointed fingers at Flick’s decision to substitute key midfielder Rodri in the UEFA Champions League clash against PSG but keep him on the field for 90 minutes against Alaves, despite crucial games coming up vs Aston Villa and Atletico Madrid.
