Xu Zhu's Successor's Football Journey

Chapter 457 Carlo's Tactical Experiment (1)

The game against Villarreal ended with 1:5.

At the end of the game, Wang Li scored another goal. That is to say, in this game, he scored three passes and two shots. This data looks very gorgeous, which makes him surpass Ronaldo who scored a hat-trick. Binho became the best player in the game.

Before the game, the media said it was a technical contest, and there was indeed a technical contest between Zidane and Riquelme, but Wang Li and Riquelme? ---
From the looks of it, the two are not comparable at all.

Riquelme has always wanted to use technology and the overall situation to win scoring opportunities for the team, but since the second half, he has been intercepted by Wang Li. The kind of forced steals and speed breakthroughs made Riquelme There is absolutely no room for play.

Riquelme lost! !
However, the reporters after the game seemed a little dissatisfied. They felt that Wang Li did not show his skills as a dance master.

"It's nothing. I think the way of playing football that can win is the best. It doesn't matter whether it is technical or not. You say I play English football, but I won. South America has stronger technical football."

In an interview with the media, Wang Li said: "We are playing professional football games, not clowns performing on stage. We will play as we can to win. There is nothing to say."

"Oh? You said my skills are not as good as Riquelme's?"

"I don't know what you guys from Villarreal have in your head, okay! I can't compare to him. I scored two goals, assisted three times, my skills are poor, but I won Already!! Whatever you say."

Real Madrid swept Villarreal with five goals and achieved five consecutive victories in the league. This fantastic result around Christmas shocked many media. Five consecutive victories are not terrible. What is even more frightening is that Real Madrid Super striker Wang Li's performance.

Scoring 11 goals and assisting five times in four league games, this kind of data is really appalling! !

The Villarreal team is not a super strong team, but in this team, there is a star whose strength is recognized by fans all over the world, and that is Riquelme, so the media only brought up Riquelme before the war. The comparison between Erme and Wang Li is to appease the hearts of the fans and suppress the momentum of Real Madrid.

But throughout the game, Riquelme only drew with Zidane, and Carlo replaced Zidane, which puzzled all the fans at the time, but after Zidane left the field, Real Madrid's The performance almost turned around, and the next four goals proved that this approach was correct.

The fans did not see any technical competition, which was completely different from what was said before the game. When Wang Li retreated, Villarreal was completely vulnerable. The teenager Robini, who had performed in Real Madrid, Austria scored three goals in a row, which made the Madrid fans rejoice --- the team's new stars one after another, this is not only the present of the team, but also the future!

Robinho + Alan Wang!
21 years old + 19 years old!
"Real Madrid Sports Daily" put this striker combination directly into the strongest position of the season. The combined age of the two is only 40 years old, which makes all fans who support Real Madrid rejoice. Worry-free', "We have the most powerful striker in the world. The Brazilian boy Robinho is undoubtedly the best striker in Brazil in recent years. He already has the strength of Ronaldo at his peak. Although he occasionally lacks experience, but He's only 21 years old and now he's in Real Madrid's main team."

"And the superstar Alan Wang's strength is unquestionable. Although he played as a midfielder in this game and his position was much lower, he still scored two goals. Don't forget that he still has three assists. Statistics, in general, his performance in this game is even better than the hat-tricks in the previous games!"

"We believe that the partnership of these two teenagers can lead Real Madrid's striker line for at least ten years!!"

The number one fan of Real Madrid, "Marca", talked about the overall aging of Real Madrid. In recent years, Real Madrid has introduced superstars, all of whom have entered the later stages of their careers, such as Zidane, Ronaldo, Raul and even Beckham. Superstars, due to their age, their status is constantly declining. In this situation, many opposing media have thrown out the theory of "Galaxy Falling". They emphasized that Real Madrid has come to an end. It has a great reputation, but it is actually out of use.

But in this game, whether it is the dazzling Wang Li, Robinho, or Baptista, Ramos and others, these stars are not very old, but they are the most dazzling stars on the court .

"Marca" believes that this season is a very important season for Real Madrid. The team has completed a transformation like a blood change. These young players have shown their strength. Move forward steadily.

And they even praised Carlo, "Marca" said: "Before, no one was optimistic about this interim head coach, but since Carlo took over the Real Madrid coach, the team has maintained a full Win, now many people are guessing who will be the coach of Real Madrid, and even the betting company has offered odds for this. However, although Carlo has limited qualifications, his achievements after taking office are beyond doubt. I think as long as Real Madrid can continue to maintain this Such a record, then Carlo may become the second Benitez, no, he is stronger than Benitez."

Regarding Carlo's substitution in this game, "Marca" appreciated it very much, "We don't deny Zidane's personal ability, but judging from Real Madrid's performance after Zidane was replaced, Carlo's substitution this time There is no doubt that he is right, and it can also be seen from this that his courage is extraordinary. I think there are very few unknown coaches who dare to replace a world-class star who performed well in the game, but Carlo did it, and he succeeded. It can also be seen from this that he has the qualifications and talents to become the world's top coach."

At this time, Carlo, who was highly praised by many media, was studying the team's tactics in the office. For half a day, he stayed in the office and did not take a step out of the room. It seemed that he also became Mourinho. Austrian 'qualification'.

Rather than saying that Carlo is studying the team's tactics, it is better to say that he is studying Wang Li's usage.

Before, he never thought about this issue. In his opinion, Wang Li is the world's top superstar, so it is definitely possible to let him play forward or right midfielder, because he is a standard forward. .

But with the performance of these four league games, Carlo found that this view was wrong.

The world's most valuable player also has a flaw, that is, the awareness of running positions cannot keep up with the pace of La Liga.

Perhaps the outside media failed to see this, but as the head coach of the team, Carlo found out after carefully analyzing the game.

When Zidane played in the last game, Wang Li, as a forward, rarely received the pass because of this. This may also be because he did not adapt to the team's style of play. After all, he came to La Liga from the Premier League. Some are out of style.

And when he retreats, the opponent's defense is not dense near the midfield, so he can play with ease.

But for such a superstar, it would be a bit wasteful to play a midfield position. After all, most of his abilities are in the frontcourt, shooting rather than passing, let alone organizing offense.

Carlo hesitated.

How to use it to maximize the benefits of Wang Li has become a difficult problem for Carlo.

At this time, he had to watch Chelsea's game video. After a while of analysis, he found that in Chelsea's game, the running positions of other players revolved around Wang Li. The team's offense is centered on him. This kind of offense is obviously built for Wang Li alone. As long as he plays well, Chelsea as a whole will perform well, but if Wang Li does not perform well, the entire team will suffer. Serious impact.

"Can Real Madrid do this?"

Thinking of this question, Carlo shook his head directly. At least as a temporary head coach, he doesn't have such a big influence to influence the will of other players. What's more, he doesn't dare to make a decision to let Wang Li play such an important role. Because he couldn't guarantee that this black-haired kid would perform well in every game.

"Does a Mr. [-] million euros still need to be trained?"

Thinking about Wang Li's recent performance, Carlo is very satisfied, but he is also very painful about his movement awareness.

"It can only let him adapt to the team slowly."

The results in the league made Carlo very happy. What also made him happy was that the team had introduced two newcomers. These two newcomers have come to the club today, which is a very good addition to the team.

Among them, one is Cassano from Rome, Italy. Cassano is 23 years old this year. He is a striker. Many Italian media call him the hopeful star of Italy. More than positive, this kid is a well-known bad boy in Italy. When he was in the Roma team, he had a quarrel with many teammates. It is said that when he left, he even had a falling out with everyone on the team.

This bad boy is an absolute headache.

The other is Cicinho from Sao Paulo, Brazil. This is a right back. Real Madrid spent 800 million euros to bring him from Brazil to Spain.

As far as Carlo is concerned, Cassano doesn't care. Real Madrid's strikers definitely lack offensive players. Whether it is Wang Li, Robinho, Ronaldo, Raul, Guti and other players, they can all start. Nuo is just a supplement to the striker. La Liga will enter the intensive schedule period. Perhaps during this period, this bad boy will have some effect.

As for his personality problem, Carlo felt that he should talk to him. After all, Real Madrid's dressing room was a little harmonious just now. If this kid ruined it, it would not be worth the candle.

And Cicinho is what Carlo is most concerned about. Real Madrid has always lacked rear players. Whether it is the main force or the substitute in the defense, Carlo is not very satisfied. The arrival of Cicinho is at least a right back with few people. Bringing a strong supplement, even if you can't become the main force, you still can't escape the first substitute position.

What Carlo didn't know was that at this time, the Real Madrid players were welcoming Cassano to join. The whole team's attitude towards the joining of this bad boy was pretty good, and Cassano was also very tactful and kept a low profile.

Yes, low key.

However, it made Wang Li very annoyed, because this kid kept chasing after him and asked him to teach Chinese Kung Fu.

"If I can have Chinese kung fu, who will I be afraid of on the court in the future?" Cassano thought so.

Originally, the main reason why he came to Real Madrid was because he couldn't get along in Rome. He also had conflicts with captain Totti, and his relationship with head coach Capello was not very good. In just a few words, I heard that Wang Li knows Chinese Kung Fu, which made Cassano very yearn for.

Cassano has always had a violent factor in his body. What he wants to do most is not to score many goals on the court, but to beat down the opponent's players on the court by himself.

"That would be wonderful," Cassano thought.

That night, he watched Wang Li's passionate "fighting show" in last season's European Champions Cup final again. In three seconds, in just three seconds, the black-haired boy put seven Liverpool players on the line. fell to the ground.

"My God, this is so handsome." Cassano was excited.

So, from the second day on, this Italian bad boy has been following Wang Li on the training ground. He has almost become Wang Li's little follower, and he is more diligent than Baptista and Robinho.

In this way, he has no time to 'scourge' other teammates, which makes it seem that nothing happened after he came to Real Madrid, and the other Real Madrid players don't know him very well. on a friendly level.

In fact, Cassano is by no means an idiot. He came to Real Madrid with a worth of 550 million euros. He is only a substitute for Real Madrid. Sometimes he can’t even make the squad. After coming here, it’s definitely not wise to have conflicts with his teammates s Choice.

And following a 'super boss' is the wisest choice.

After coming to the team, he found that the most prestigious people here are not Ronaldo or Zidane, but Mr. [-] million euros who has been very popular this summer. Undoubtedly, if he has a good relationship with Wang Li, then he will be in the At least Real Madrid will not be as miserable as Rome.

Cassano is very confident in his skills, and even the Italian media cannot deny his strength. He knows that there is a problem with his personality, so he also tried his best to correct this.

Maybe, the new life in Real Madrid can make him grow to a higher level?

Cassano thought so, so in this friendly harmony, he got a chance in the next game.

In January, the knockout stage of the Copa del Rey with the participation of La Liga teams also officially kicked off. Real Madrid's first opponent is Athletic Bilbao from La Liga.

This club is located in Bilbao, Viscay Province, Basque Country, northern Spain. It was founded in 1898 and is the second earliest football club in Spain.

It is worth mentioning that Athletic Bilbao is a founding member of the Spanish Football League and has never been relegated since 1928.

Since entering the 21st century, the situation of this team is not very good. With the integration of a large number of foreign players, Athletic Bilbao, which only uses local stars, has become more and more difficult. Work hard for relegation.

However, the annual Copa del Rey is a must for Athletic Bilbao.

For the rich teams, the Copa del Rey is a tasteless game, but this event has some meaning for Athletic Bilbao. In 1902, after the Copa del Rey was held, Athletic Bilbao won three consecutive championships, the first king The Cup was also permanently acquired by Athletic Bilbao.

So far, this team has won 24 Copa del Rey championships, which is really shocking.

However, it is a pity that they met Real Madrid this time.

Whether it is results, lineup or recent performance, Athletic Bilbao has almost nothing to offer, but the opponent's head coach Clement still holds the idea of ​​​​"Real Madrid does not pay attention to the King's Cup". The Mames Stadium awaits the visit of Real Madrid.

Clement's idea is correct. Not only the club executives don't pay much attention to the Copa del Rey, Carlo also doesn't pay much attention to it. In Spain, this event is completely tasteless. It is far from the Football Cup in England, and it is only equivalent to the English League. It's just about the size of a cup.

Real Madrid is now behind Barcelona in the league, and there is still the Champions League to play. From the perspective of Real Madrid, they don't have so much energy to spend on this kind of tasteless game.

Carlo regarded this game as training, it should be said that he was looking for the most suitable position for this black-haired boy.

In the game, Wang Li was placed in the center position by Carlo. He formed a lineup of 451. Wang Li himself was at the forefront of the team. The five midfielders were Gravesen and Zidane. , Guti, Baptista, Robinho.

This formation surprised Real Madrid fans, because Real Madrid rarely play a striker formation, and the 451 formation is really rare, but they didn't care too much, after all, it was said to be 451, but in the game, there were only five midfielders If the position is slightly premised, then Real Madrid becomes 442 again.

But this game was not like this. Before the game, Carlo explained to the players that he could pass the ball into the penalty area when he had the opportunity, and Wang Li's task was to catch the ball and shoot. This is a standard English center forward's style of play. Wang Li has no objection to this.

In fact, the task was too easy for him.

With the support of the head coach, the five players in the midfield all followed the instructions and passed the ball towards the penalty area whenever they had the opportunity during the game. In this way, Wang Li's chances were greatly increased, but the team lost a Beckham, The passing level of many players really needs to be improved. Real Madrid players seldom have accurate long passes. They are better at playing short passes. This is caused by the league style of La Liga.

Therefore, such nonsensical passes lasted for 5 minutes, and the players automatically returned to the original style of play: using short passes to infiltrate to find scoring opportunities. Of course, if there is a chance, they still pass to Wang Li.

In short, Wang Li himself acted as the single arrow of the team.
