247. The face is ugly, and things are difficult to do

From the previous "why is this kid on the field, why don't you send James to start" to the current "hurry up and go to Chu Ge, we can't stand it ......anymore", unconsciously, Chu Ge's status among Real Madrid fans has changed dramatically.

As Chu Ge said, the best way to please the fans is to score goals.

If one isn't enough, then two; Two is not enough, then more......

With his outstanding performance one after another, Chu Ge finally won the recognition of the fans and became an important member of the team in the minds of the fans.

Of course, Chu Ge can be recognized by fans so quickly, and it is inseparable from the foil of his peers.

Bell struggled with the soleus muscle for a long time, and the recovery time was always three weeks and three weeks. He has been absent from the game since he was injured in January, and even the Madrid derby has not been able to return in time. Fans will inevitably have some emotions towards him.

James Rodriguez's good and bad performances did not please the fans.

Compared to these two, Chu Ge is much cuter.

He has a high attendance rate, and even if he misses a game with an injury, he will be able to return very quickly.

Not only are there few injuries, Chu Ge can always have beautiful passes or goals every time he plays, and his performance is eye-catching. The game-turnaround against Betis, as well as the hat-trick against Roma in the last game, gave Real Madrid fans an excellent impression of the youngster.

Not to mention that he is still his own child, and he is still handsome......

However, making substitutions before half-time is very demoralizing.

Under normal circumstances, as long as there are no injuries or very big low-level mistakes, the manager will not choose to make personnel changes in the first half.

Therefore, Zidane has no intention of making a substitution.

Soon, the forty-five minutes of the first half were over, and the score was still 0:0.

Simeone was the first to leave the dugout and turned to go to the dressing room.

Judging by his expression, the Atletico coach is very calm. He was pleased with his team's performance in the first half, with the only dissatisfaction likely being that the Atletico players lacked the ability to take chances.

They didn't have many shots, but they were all dangerous.

Atletico Madrid are closer to scoring than Real Madrid.

Zidane entered the tunnel with a frown, and then both players left the pitch.

It's halftime for the break.

The fans at the scene, as well as the fans on the Internet, were all talking about the first half of the game.

"What the hell did James play in this game, the offense is not strong, the defense is not hard, my team does not need such an uncle."

"J Ronaldo should make a move as soon as possible, it will really be a loss if you stay for another season. There is really no breakthrough at all, I can't squeeze it, I can't shake it, I can't shake it, the speed is even worse, and there are no bright spots. ”

James James' inactive performance on the pitch left some Real Madrid fans unhappy.

"Actually, to be fair, James just played as badly as his team-mates."

"Yes, what's more terrifying than someone carrying the pot is that I don't know how to divide the pot......"

"It's completely unacceptable to lose or draw this game, but it's strange that the team is playing like this, this game can be won!"

The fans were very unhappy.

"When the team won consecutive games before, there were still people who played Zidane. Don't look at what kind of opponent you played before! Can those teams, even Benitez, win? ”

"Yes, Master Pei is unbeaten in the first eight games coached by Master Pei, with six wins and two draws, isn't Zidane about the same? What is the difference between changing coaches and not changing? Anyone can abuse vegetables, but when it comes to playing a strong team, they all become soft bones, and their true level is exposed at once. ”

"It's good that you can see Zidane's true level, so that you don't have any illusions. That's it for this season, and with a more reliable manager next season, I think Tottenham's Mauricio Pochettino is good, or Manuel Pellegrini can do it. ”

Some fans are starting to turn their backs.

"You can't say that. How long has Zidane been in charge? Moreover, although the results are similar to Benitez, at least the scene is much better! ”

There are also grievances for Zidane.

'Anyway, in the second half the team must have needed to make some adjustments. I think Chu Ge should be replaced. He's the only big hit in the team at the moment, he's fast and can offer something different to the team. ”

"Agreed."

"Change, change. In fact, I don't think it may be useful for him to go up, Atletico Madrid's defense is too strong, Godin and Gimenez are really stable. But apart from him, there seems to be no one to change, hey! ”

"I have long said that the team should buy Hazard or Neymar, I dare to say that if I don't buy these two this summer, my team will still be cool next season!"

In the midst of a sigh, a Real Madrid fan made a suggestion.

"Why don't you try Casemiro? The midfielder of our group, under the impact of Atletico Madrid's bandits, can't hold the ball at all. Casemiro goes up and fights, will it be better? If we can free up the Magic Flute or Kroos, maybe our midfield will be alive. ”

"It makes sense, the problem of our regiment is that the defense is too hard, and the defense keeps losing position. It's good that the opponent is weak, but it's too bad if the opponent is stronger. ”

Someone agreed.

"Casemiro? Forget it. Benitez liked him when he first arrived, but as you can see, it's useless. The player who even Benitez gave up is hopeless. Moreover, Casemiro is too slow. ”

"The reason for not using Casemiro is not puzzling at all, it is better to be beaten less than to be beaten by strong ability, not to mention that hitting people instead of beating is the way Real Madrid wants to play, a ball like a wooden bird, even if it wins the championship, fans also think that it is a dwarf (naturally referring to Barcelona)."

There are also many fans who oppose it.

……

In the dressing room, Zidane was actually thinking about it.

As a Real Madridian, he understands all too well why Benitez was sacked.

The defeat to Barcelona and the disharmony in the dressing room were one thing, but the overly conservative style of play was also a big part.

Therefore, after Zidane took office, he vigorously promoted Isco, and formed a trio of technical midfielders with Modric and Kroos.

It is precisely because of the use of three technical players in the midfield that Zidane wants all three to have some defensive ability. That's why he abandoned James, or would rather let him play as a winger than always worry about having him in the middle.

Isco is much more aggressive defensively than James.

But today's game made Zidane a little doubtful whether a purely technical midfield composed of Isco, Kroos and Modric was feasible?

Against a weak team, the three technical midfielders took advantage of possession and defended with possession, and the effect was really good.

But when the opponent becomes a team like Atletico Madrid, it starts to reveal their lack of positional sense.

Atletico are a team that doesn't compete with you for the ball at all, they don't care about possession. They're pressing, pressing, forcing you to make mistakes, and then catching your mistakes and finishing the game.

That's their style of football.

When encountering such an opponent, if the midfielder does not have a strong defensive ability and a player who covers a large area, it is easy for them to seize the opportunity to counterattack.

Zidane's headache is here.

He doesn't want to overturn his vision of a technical midfield.

Once this strategy is changed, then among the star players such as Modric, Kroos, Isco and James, Zidane can only send a maximum of two players per game.

If this continues, will it cause dissatisfaction among the players, and will the dressing room be discordant as a result?

Zidane is currently relying on a winning streak and prestige as a player to maintain the team's apparent calm.

If he takes the initiative to break that calm and get the big names in the rotation on the team, he can't predict what the ripple effect will be.

But if the midfield is not adjusted, Zidane feels that if this continues, sooner or later there will be problems.

He was now caught in a dilemma.

However, there was not much time left for him to think.

The team doctor told him that because of the old injury, Benzema could not continue in the second half of the game.

Benzema plays a very important role in Zidane's tactical system, and he can't stick to the game, which makes Zidane also have a lot of headaches.

……

Soon, the time for the break passed.

Both teams returned to play.

Because of Benzema's injury, Real Madrid had to make personnel changes in advance.

Chu Ge came on and replaced Benzema.

"Why is it not James but Benzema?"

Seeing this substitution, Real Madrid fans were confused. They can understand Chu Ge's appearance, but it is not clear why Benzema was substituted.

"Could it be that Chu Ge is playing center forward today?"

They were a little confused.

"Maybe it's because Benzema's injury isn't completely healed." There are also fans who guessed the reason.

"Then Benzema is down, how to change the team's formation, who will replace Benzema to play center?"

Soon, there was an answer to this question.

Cristiano Ronaldo was pushed up in front of him.

Chu Ge played as a left winger, while James continued to play as a right winger.

However, as the game progressed, the three players crossed positions more frequently, and the positions were not particularly fixed.

It was a new twist on Real Madrid's second-half game.

Whether this change is good or bad still needs to be tested by the game, but in defence, Real Madrid finally made a mistake.

In the 53rd minute, Antoine Griezmann won the ball.

He calmly pushed the ball to Felipe, who was cut in on the left, and then accelerated forward.

Felipe quickly crossed the ball back into the middle and the ball made its way through Real Madrid's defence and into the feet of Antoine Griezmann. The lattice pushes with ease, and the ball flies into the corner of the goal.

0:1!

Atletico broke the deadlock.

The Bernabeu burst into boos.

A stand erupted with a cry of "Florentino down", which was quickly echoed by other fans, and the call for Florentino to step down rang out again at the Bernabeu Stadium.

Galeries Lafayette's face became very ugly.
