Is Hansi Flick a gamble that Joan Laporta should be taking at Barcelona?

So... we already appear to have reached last throw of the dice territory.

Joan Laporta appears to be stumbling from one disaster to another at present, but he’ll be hoping that the appointment of Hansi Flick turns the tide back in his favour.

It’s an interesting appointment to say the least because his entire football career has been spent in Germany, going right back to his youth days.

Barcelona may well be the ‘dream job’ for him, but it’s going to be an awful lot different to what he’s been used to in Germany.

One could legitimately argue that there’s a good reason why no one has employed him since his disastrous reign with the German national team.
