""Lamine is good," Flick insisted in a news conference ahead of Sunday's visit from Elche. "I just spoke with him. He's doing good. Of course he has some days where he maybe feels some pain, but he really works hard; he improves a lot about these things. "I think he's on a good evolution, so this is what we can say.""
""At the moment, best way to come back to the best level is to play in the position you normally play, where you have strengths and can give your best for the team," he added. "For him, the most important thing is that he touches the ball. This is his strength. When he has the ball, he can create good things for us. This is what we want to see.""
Lamine Yamal missed seven matches this season with pubalgia and has returned for Barcelona's last three games but has not matched last season's form. He was largely nullified in Barcelona's 2-1 defeat to Real Madrid after being moved centrally late. Hansi Flick said Yamal is recovering well, still experiences some days of pain, and is improving through hard work. Flick believes Yamal's most effective path back to top form is playing on the right wing where frequent ball touches allow him to create chances. Barcelona's reliance on Yamal has grown amid injuries to key attackers.
