“We want to get to 16 points. We have potential and we are looking at each match to improve. We are a young team and we can all raise our game,” he said.
Ahead of Wednesday’s game, Flick predicted that Slavia Prague could be a difficult opponent.
“They defend well and press high up the field, and that is what I expect of them,” he said.
He noted the threat posed by the match day 7 opponents.
Flick said, “They like to attack and press and they are dangerous on the break. It will be a tough game and we will have to put in a Champions League performance. It will be key to be attentive to not losing the ball.”
