Ronaldo's landing in La Liga stimulated the enthusiasm of fans throughout Spain and even around the world. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

But for the high cold, everything is business as usual.

This is not only because he has always believed that Ronaldo alone cannot change the situation in La Liga, but also because on September 1, he led the team to Barcelona and visited the Camp Nou.

In the first round of La Liga, the master-apprentice showdown!

This is a matchup that all La Liga fans are looking forward to, and countless media have been hyped, and even the players on both sides have a sense of saber-rattling.

But only two of the parties themselves know in their hearts that in fact...... They really aren't very familiar!

When Louis van Gaal first took over at Barcelona, he was a bit of the head of the team's athletic department, coordinating everything, even the academy, and everything revolved around him.

In the first team alone, Van Gaal's entire coaching team has more than a dozen people, plus the club's staff, there are at least dozens of people in the entire training ground, and no one will care about a few interns who have not graduated from university at all.

Because it's all too common.

Even, in a way, interns are equivalent to free volunteers.

Even if Van Gaal later decided to stay with Gao Han and sign a formal work contract with him, I am afraid it was not because he admired Gao Han, but just felt that this young man did a good job and was very diligent, and the team happened to be short of manpower, nothing more.

Moreover, what I was going to sign with Gao Han at that time was also the lowest level of work contract, and the salary was very low.

As for the so-called master and apprentice and the so-called appreciation hyped by media reporters, they are all carried by people in a sedan chair, and they know each other tacitly.

Therefore, when Gao Han met Van Gaal at the Camp Nou, when everyone in the stadium and even the live TV cameras were focused on them on the sidelines, waiting for the two masters and apprentices to have a tear-jerking scene of reunion after a long absence, the two just shook hands politely, stood on the sidelines and said two or three words, and went back.

This is the reaction of their most genuine friendship, and as for how the media reporters and fans use their imaginations, that's their business, and no one cares.

"I thought you would be like your apprentices in Chinese TV dramas, kneeling on the ground and shouting Master."

For the meeting between Gao Han and Van Gaal, the Atletico Madrid coaching staff is also looking forward to it, full of gossip spirit.

But as a result, they were a little disappointed.

Gao Han shook his head at Cantarero and smiled, "You're thinking too much. ”

"But at the very least, you should also talk well, talk about your career, and talk about your life." Sergio Garcia walked over and handed a document to Gao Han.

"He's not a woman!" Gao Han scolded with a direct smile, "Besides, Van Gaal doesn't like nonsense." ”

This made the coaching staff nod in unison.

The Dutch are indeed such a character.

Gao Han flipped through the file and saw Barcelona's starting lineup.

After Van Gaal returned to take charge of Barcelona, he still adopted a back three style of play, but began to vigorously promote the academy.

The starting goalkeeper of this game is Valdés, who is from the La Masia Academy, and the backline is Fernando Navado, De Boer and Puyol, of which Navarro and Puyol are also La Masia Academy graduates.

The midfield is in a four-one position, with Ovimas and Luis Enrique on the left and right flanks standing a little more forward, Mendieta and Xavi in the middle, and Riquelme at the heart of the midfield.

The two strikers up front are Saviola and Kluivert.

This set of three-four-one-two formation is the focus of Van Gaal's practice after entering Barcelona, although the starting lineup has been adjusted, but in general there will not be much change.

"In this game we are not as good as our opponents in terms of fitness, so we have to take it easy." Gao Han said.

Atletico Madrid just played the UEFA Super Cup in Monaco two days ago, and after coming back, they rushed to Barcelona non-stop, running back and forth, with a lot of physical exertion, and the impact was indeed not small.

So in this game, Gao Han also adjusted the starting lineup.

The goalkeeper is Petr Cech and the backline is Antonio López, Marchena, Pablo Ibañez and Roberto.

The midfield trio is Seydoux Keita, Xavi Alonso and Diego Simeone.

The front three are Cristiano Ronaldo, Kiko and Fernando Torres.

A number of players, including Kaka, Carvalho and Deco, have played three consecutive matches in the Spanish Super Cup and UEFA Super Cup, and Buenaventura, who is in charge of fitness, suggested that this game be substituted and rested.

As a guest at Camp Nou, it is the first game of the new season, and many of the main players are resting in turn, so Atletico Madrid naturally does not dare to be careless.

Barcelona, on the other hand, finished fifth in the league last season and was forced to play in the League Cup, and after nearly two months of preparation throughout the summer, they must have been full of ambition as they waited for the first round of the league.

At this time, he had a hard time with his opponent, and Gao Han's brain was not broken!

…………

…………

As the referee's whistle blew, the packed Camp Nou was full of voices.

With the support of the home team's fans, Barcelona took the lead in attacking Atletico Madrid.

This is also typical of Van Gaal's characteristic, taking the lead and preferring to die in attack rather than survive in defence.

On the other hand, the Sheets neither retreated nor pressed forward, but steadily followed their own rhythm and methodically deployed their defenses to take on the attack from Barcelona.

The first threatening attack of the game came in the fourth minute, when Ovimas from the left flank played a clever pass after Barcelona broke the ball, and Saviola got on the ball in a quick counter-attack.

However, the Argentine striker was too eager to score goals, rushed to his feet, and ultimately failed to threaten.

Atletico Madrid is not in a hurry because the team is holding solid.

"Saviola......" Gao Han shook his head and sighed, "...... It's a pity! ”

Emery on the side also nodded: "Yes, the genius brought in a year ago to fight against Zidane originally thought it would be Maradona, but it doesn't look like that at all." ”

In his debut season in La Liga, he scored 17 goals in 36 appearances, which is indeed not bad, and the 18 goals in 36 games with Kluivert can also be regarded as the leading attacking combination in La Liga.

But the two players' styles are not complementary, and both belong to the type of play that favors the scorer.

It's like Saviola, who is short and fast, but he is not strong in holding the ball and lacks one-on-one breakthrough ability, which makes him look like a speed shooter who is only 1.68 meters tall and weak in physical confrontation.

Like the ball just now, it was clear that a chance had been created, let alone Kaka, even if it was replaced by Villa and Torres, both of whom dared to take out Marchena one-on-one, but Saviola chose to shoot early.

With the position and angle at the time, coupled with goalkeeper Petr Cech's position and Marchena's block, the probability of scoring with his feet was quite low.

It can only be said that the weakness of the physical confrontation, as well as his personal technical shortcomings, made him not have the confidence to take on Marchena alone.

Of course, this is not a problem.

Every player has their strengths and weaknesses, even at the top such as Ronaldo and Zinedine Zidane.

The key is whether you deserve the manager's tactics tailored to you.

This becomes a matter of trade-offs.

"If you look at Riquelme again, there are a lot of problems."

Gao Han's words immediately made the surrounding coaching staff look at Riquelme on the field.

The Argentine midfielder definitely belongs to the type, you can tell at first glance that he is a genius, but he has a serious problem.

"I think he's too sticky and too slow." Emery tried to speak her mind.

"Well, just now, Kluivert and Saviola in the front court obviously had a good chance to sprint, if it was Pep Guardiola and Xavi Alonso, they would have passed forward with a big foot, but Riquelme chose to control the ball and missed the opportunity."

Speaking of this, Cantarero smiled and said: "Van Gaal was angry and scolded on the sidelines just now. ”

"Some Argentine media have long disclosed that Riquelme has a very unique style on the pitch and a bit of a withdrawn personality, so it is not very popular in Argentina, and I heard that the reason why Barcelona did not make up their minds last season was because of concerns." Sergio Garcia was talking about the gossip he had gotten.

But Gao Han shook his head, "These are all superficial, the core is that he is destined to be unsuitable for the top team." ”

Everyone was amazed.

He has just arrived, and he has only played for more than ten minutes in the official game, so you conclude that he is not suitable?

'There are two kinds of midfielders, one is Deco and Xavi Alonso, they see themselves as servants, they provide services to their team-mates, they play around how to help their team-mates perform at a better level, they will control the tempo by passing the ball, but they are still serving their team-mates.

"There is also the type of controller, they demand to be in control, everyone plays around his wishes, his thoughts and ideas, he will not accommodate you, he will only ask you to accommodate him, Riquelme belongs to this category."

When the people heard this, they felt as if they understood something, but they didn't seem to understand.

"For example, everybody knows that a good passer is about getting the ball to the best position at the best time, which is commonly known as the gap, right?"

Everyone nodded, and Emery remembered it seriously.

"Deco and Xavi Alonso will think about their teammates, what are the characteristics of their play, whether they are left or right, what kind of pass they like to use the most, if the ball is in the past and has to be in neutral and need to be accelerated, what is the speed of their teammates, and even what the physical exertion is, and then calculate how much advance they should give so that they can sprint and receive the ball comfortably."

"But Riquelme's words, he doesn't care about you, he has his own set of ideas and ideas, maybe very subtle, maybe very threatening if he succeeds, and he can't even defend against it, but he doesn't think about whether his teammates can receive the ball, and whether they can comfortably move forward after receiving the ball."

When everyone heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up and they suddenly realized.

Looking at the field again, even after so long in pre-season training, many Barcelona players still look very awkward when receiving Riquelme's pass, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling.

There are even times when they already have a chance after receiving the ball, but they are still adjusting so much that the opportunity is missed.

They didn't know it before, thinking that it was because the players didn't cooperate well enough, but now when they hear Gao Han say this, it turns out to be Riquelme's problem.

"Modern football is becoming more and more holistic and teamwork, the former is more popular, the latter is clearly out of line, and there will be no better team willing to pin the whole team on one player."

'That aside, Riquelme is definitely a midfield maestro, but tonight ......'

When Gao Han said this, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Although he admires Riquelme, he wants to win even more! (To be continued.) )
