Rashford Sub was to make the right change

“I think they were the right changes,” continued Flick. “The first goal after the break changed the game.”

Rashford hopes that Flick’s decision is not a sign of the upcoming things. Barcelona has the opportunity to make his loan permanently next summer.

European football expert Andy Brassell spoke exclusively with Talksport.com before playing against Levant and said that the club’s beginning of the club’s Champions League campaign will be really important in Camp Nou.

“You are really pleased to have him,” emphasized Rashford when he discussed his first month in Spain in Spain on Friday.

“I think the fact that he has this versatility and he is the player they wanted in this sense.”

Rashford is ideal for Barcelona

“Now Nico Williams was obviously the first choice. But with regard to the versatility, in relation to what it costs because he obviously made financial efforts to go there.

“He is not permanent, at least not at the moment. He is really ideal for Barcelona.

“And clearly Rashford really wants to be there. So that is important.

“I mean, it’s funny, because if you go to the back of last season and look at how you did not come against Inter in the Champions League final when you dominated most of these two games, many people would have looked at it and said that you might have done some defenders or a midfield an anchor player.

“And especially when you speak of defenders, you have lost Inigo Martinez through the Saudi Pro league and could really do with a replacement for him, although Ronaldo Araujo came back from an injury.

“So it was interesting to hear Deco who is the sports director there, for example from the beginning of the transfer window, what we need is cover for Lamine Yamal and Raphinha.

“This is the most important thing. We cannot drive and to a lesser extent Robert Lewandowski you cannot plow them into the ground by having them play 55, 60 games. And I think that’s not the first.

“It makes sense, but I think it is not that many people who watch Barcelona from the perspective of a lay. So it was a priority to put a player in this position.

“He really wanted to come what was big.

“I think that the fact that Hansi Flick carries out all of his coaching and media in English is probably also very helpful for Marcus Rashford in order to decide, integrate and recognize what the team really wants.

“In this first game it was a strange age day because he was only officially registered on the Laligas website after 10.30 a.m. and then he played in the evening. So he didn’t know all the time. He went a whole week before the lead, I believe in the club, I think they are registered me.

“It is the case that Nico Williams is exactly why Nico Williams is not signed because you can’t really promise anything.

“Laliga was a bit cynical about whether Barcelona did that. Obviously the [Marc-Andre] The violation of Ter Stegen helped you, for example Joan Garcia, to register the goalkeeper. And some directors took personal guarantees to register Rashford.

“When he arrived, the game was really a kind of dead duck.

“In view of the fact that there was such a drama at the beginning of the day and the night before, it is remarkable that it is important and that they play a team that two players have less than they have, and so they agree. What they can really prove during this time is really about getting up for minutes.

Rashford begins to become really important in the Champions League

“I think as soon as the Champions League begins and you play, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, Rashford is really important.

“That is a bit, I think, especially with a Champions League group with eight games in which you know that you have to change the team, and now you understand the format a little.

“I think teams go blindly last season without knowing how many points they need to get the top 24 or top or whatever.

“But now I think there is a marker, I think we’ll see that teams will mix their teams, their first 11s, this season a little more efficiently. I would imagine that Rashford starts getting real games.”
