Chapter 237: This Is Not a Usurpation, This Is a Inheritance!

"We need a stable and effective tactical system."

After returning to the club, Valverde held a coaches' meeting overnight and put the charter on the agenda.

For Barcelona now, what they desperately need is a stable tactical system.

You can eat all the tactics in one move, and the kind of tactical system that applies to you.

Now Barcelona is playing a game, which can be called a hundred flowers.

can play anti-counter, can play pass control and can play offensive football, it looks beautiful, but it is also chaotic enough, all of them are copycats, and there is no routine of their own.

Some are just barely supported by their super personal ability.

It's a scattered force, and all Valverde needs to do is concentrate these scattered forces and let them burst out with shocking energy at the same time.

Valverde took Barcelona in the midst of a period of turmoil, when his head was full of how to solve the dilemma, leading to putting the cart before the horse.

Now, with a large number of signings, Valverde can implement more long-term plans.

Although he is reluctant to admit it, Valverde understands that the current Barcelona team is still carrying the football of the Enrique era.

He didn't tweak his own characteristics.

So what are you good at?

Valverde asked himself, and in the end, he concluded that he was not good at anything.

A lot of people say he values youth training, but at the time he was at Athletic Bilbao.

It's not that he wants to pay attention to youth training, but he has to pick generals from among the shorts, but even so, he has handed over a good report card.

At the same time, he has also made a good manager with his resume at Athletic Bilbao.

But this did not satisfy his ambitions.

His decision to challenge Barcelona was based on that, he didn't want to be good, he wanted to be great.

And Barcelona can obviously help him get into that area.

But since coming to Barcelona, he has only understood one thing, there are many giants.

This is not the picture he imagined, and he is a little unbearable.

But Valverde has a characteristic, he is not a manager who is too controlling, he likes to listen to the players, communicate with them on an equal footing and become a whole.

This is what Barcelona is today.

Is this a feature?

At most, it's a dog lick.

But licking a dog also requires licking the right person.

Valverde was a little tangled.

Messi is still easy to play!

Before settling on a new tactical system, he needed to select the core elements.

The league needs a core, and in a major competition like the Champions League, it wants a core.

At the core, it's not just about his position in the team, he needs to step up in times of crisis.

As much as you have, how much power you have, how great your responsibility is.

On one side is the uncrowned king of Barcelona, Messi,

On the other side is the rising successor of Barcelona's new generation.

In the end, Valverde still preferred Elal.

It's not that Messi can't do it, but Yile has more potential and can take on more burdens.

His big heart has proven it in countless Champions League appearances.

For this reason, Valverde specially asked Messi for dialogue.

He needs to inform the other person of his thoughts.

He thought it would be a particularly difficult task, but he found it much easier than he had imagined.

Messi has basically no resistance, he is willing to hand over the core of the team and support Yile to become the new generation of Barcelona king.

Messi's exact words are like this.

"Barcelona need a new leader and I wouldn't dare to say I'm a successful captain, but I'm doing my best to fight for her. But in fact, the exhaustion of countless competitions made me feel that I was entering the last years of my career, and I was no longer capable of creating miracles, which is a characteristic of young people. ”

"Yi belongs here, I don't have any rejection of him, I want to be a stepping stone for him to get to the throne, and the only thing I hope is that we can get better and win more games."

Looking at the smiling Messi, Valverde sighed in his heart.

He understands how much Messi loves this club and sacrifices himself for it.

Yile is indeed the right choice.

This is something that many Barcelona players did not say, but they also secretly agreed with it in their hearts.

Especially the younger generation, such as Fati, Umtiti and others, have become closer to Yile and have become a new small group.

Messi didn't stop all this, but watched them thrive with relief.

He hopes to help them grow as much as possible while he is still capable.

The conversation ended happily, and as a sign of respect, Valverde personally sent Messi out.

The next day, Valverde publicly announced the core personnel in the dressing room.

For the issue of Yile as the core, it is a tacit matter in the team.

But Valverde made the matter public, and the nature of this is different.

Many people subconsciously turned their heads to look at Messi.

Even Yi Le himself was a little stunned.

Messi's performance was very indifferent, he took the initiative to step forward, patted Yile on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "I agree!" ”

One stone startles a thousand waves.

Everyone felt a little trance, and Yile became the public core of Barcelona's new generation.

This means that a new era in Barcelona is about to begin.

Next, Barcelona will redesign a new tactical system around Yile.

In the new tactical system, Valverde opted to use a large number of new players.

For example, Umtiti, Fati, De Jong, Wag and many others will all be candidates for the new system.

A system that combines the old and the new, reorganizes the age structure and creates a new Barcelona.

In order to strike a balance, Valverde has left Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Gerard Pique in place, and these three veterans will be needed to lead the new team.

But people like Sergio Busquets, Vidal, Rakitic and others are gradually withdrawing from the main stage.

Even if Valverde has not been announced, they are well aware that there is no place for them in the new generation of Barcelona.

It's brutal and impersonal, but that's professional football.

Busquets had the option to stay, and the club showed their willingness to keep him until he retired.

But Busquets is very entangled,

He still wants to play again, but he can't keep up with the pace of the new era.

He's the knockout, so more preparation is needed.

Maybe leaving is also a good option.

After all, Xavi, Iniesta and others also made such a choice.

On 30 November, Valverde held a press conference to announce the reconstitution of the squad.

At the same time, it is announced to the outside world that it belongs to the 'new generation of Barcelona core'.

When the name Yile appeared, the reporters were both surprised and a little expected.

The accident was that Messi was still there, but Barcelona reorganized the team early and hurriedly pushed Yile to the table.

It is expected that Yile already has enough strength to support the whole team, he is not a rookie, he is the king of the new generation.

The media frantically reported on this incident, and some media even exaggerated, 'This is a usurpation from Yi.'" ’

It's a small newspaper that wants to get a headline that catches the eyeballs.

In fact, they did get eyeballs, but they were also scolded enough by angry Barcelona fans.

On this day, the official website of this newspaper was swiped by a sentence from Barcelona fans.

'Idiot! This is not a usurpation, this is a legacy!! ’
