One of the major reasons Barca hasn't been able to live up to its standards in recent times is its inability to capitalize on the chances created in the final third. Moreover, a lack of support from the wings has been a crucial factor in their downfall. Even though Barca has been eyeing a pacy, jet-heeled winger in the name of Nico Williams, they need the same support from their target man. 

Recently, manager Hansi Flick has opened up about his thoughts regarding Barca's finishing. Though their first-choice striker, Robert Lewandowski, has been managing 30+G/A in the last few seasons, he has still been far from his Bundesliga form. With Hansi Flick as the manager, it is safe to predict that this could be Lewandowski's best Barca season

Flick, who has been praised a lot by the Barca players, has proven his experience at the club so far. From introducing new training routines to prioritizing players like Nico Williams and Mikel Merino, Flick's tenure has been a success so far.

Keeping faith in the striker, he worked wonders with during his time at Bayern would surely help Lewandowski's morale, who has been performing below par for his true potential in the big fixtures. 
With the new season less than a month away, Barca would hope that they face no more injuries and look forward to kicking off the 2024/25 season in style.
