Casado: Flick is a very close coach; my role model has always been Xavi

Barcelona youngster Marc Casado was interviewed and talked about head coach Flick.

Casado said: "We can feel Flick's confidence very much. He is a very close coach and he often talks to the players."

"When you start a new project, the results are important. You have to master the rhythm and confidence from the first day. Four wins in four games is important. This is how you win the championship. Real Madrid has an excellent team, so do we. We are doing well now."

"Comparison with Kimmich? Last season I started playing as a full-back like him, and most importantly, Balde began to emphasize our physical similarities. Now I can see him in Munich. Oh no! We are at home against Bayern."

"My role model has always been Xavi, and when I started playing as a No. 6, I looked up to Busquets."
