Hansi Flick’s high line at Barcelona came in for more criticism on Tuesday during a 3-0 defeat to Chelsea in the Champions League.
Former striker and television pundit Alan Shearer had some harsh words for the Catalan giants and felt Barca were deservedly beaten by Stamford Bridge.
“They keep on getting done time and time again. Nothing more than Chelsea deserve. They time it to perfection again,” he said on Amazon Prime.
“I’ve seen some offside traps in my time, but this is absolutely crazy it really is. It’s as if there’s four dummies just stood there and saying “how do you want to do it guys?”.
“It’s hard to believe at times, I’m lost for words at how easy it’s been for Chelsea to get through and how crazy at times they’re playing it.”
The defeat leaves Barca facing an uphill task to qualify for the next stage of the Champions League. They face Eintracht Frankfurt at Camp Nou next in the competition.
