Hansi Flick hit 100 wins as Barcelona manager in 131 games, only Luis Enrique was quicker, after a 6-1 thrashing of Alavés in LaLiga on Saturday.
Hansi Flick has won 100 matches as Barcelona manager, and only Luis Enrique got there faster.
The milestone came in a 6-1 win over Deportivo Alavés at Spotify Camp Nou on Saturday, October 31, on Matchday 11 of LaLiga. Raphinha and Lamine Yamal scored twice each, Fermín López and Anthony Gordon added one apiece, and Yamal also provided an assist, according to beIN SPORTS and Citi Sports Online.
The key numbers, via Barcelona and Prosport:
- 100 wins in 131 games, second-fastest in Barça history behind Enrique's 126.
- A record of 100 wins, 10 draws and 21 defeats.
- A 76.33% win rate, which the club says is the highest of any manager it has had.
According to beIN SPORTS and Citi Sports Online, he arrived in the summer of 2024 and has won two LaLiga titles, two Spanish Super Cups and one Copa del Rey. It was also Barcelona's 10th win in 11 games this season, and it followed defeats to Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid (2-1 in El Clásico). Aston Villa are next, in the Champions League on Tuesday, November 3.
My take: a century of wins mostly measures how long a manager has kept the job. The 76.33% is the number that says what he did with it, and it is the one the next owner, board or rival will quote. The 21 defeats are there too; a century does not erase the recent losses to PSG and Real Madrid.

Meanwhile at the desk
Luis Enrique needed 126 games, Flick needed 131. Five games is the sort of gap a man with a 76.33% win rate will already have noticed.
Six goals, two braces, an assist from Yamal. Alavés scored one. Not exactly a quiet way to bring up a century.
