In the Real Madrid dressing room, Raul is the best.

It's about status, it's about being a person.

Raul is the captain of Real Madrid, he has been playing for Real Madrid in the past, and his prestige within the team and among the fans is naturally very high, and he was promoted as the leader of the 'Spanish Gang', in fact, he does not participate in the activities of small groups at all, and he does not want factions in the team, he has a good relationship with everyone on weekdays, and is willing to take the initiative to help others.

For example, C-Ronaldo's preparation performance at the beginning of the season was average, and the personal pressure was naturally very high, Florentino had just emphasized the discipline in the team, because Florentino bumped into it because of a lateness, and Raul took the initiative to stand up for C-Ronaldo in an embarrassing scene, and took the initiative to comfort him.

This kind of thing has happened more than once.

Raul is arguably a role model in the Real Madrid team, everyone admires him from the bottom of their hearts, and he is indeed a captain who deserves respect.

But Raul also has something to worry about --

Manifestation!

Before last season, Raul deserved to be the captain, he has always been the main frontcourt, playing more times and performing well, even if other teammates perform better, but being the main team and having prestige is enough for him to stabilize his position in the team.

Now it's different.

Raul said that he didn't care about the position at all, and was willing to play as a substitute on the front line, provided that the performance did not discriminate against people, otherwise there would be only prestige and no performance, and it would be a little embarrassing to continue to carry the title of captain.

Raul has such a problem, he wants to try to perform better and help the team more, but he finds that the team does not need himself anymore, there are too many players in the team who are performing well.

So far in the season, the best performance is Zhen Shaolong, followed by C-Ronaldo.

Zhen Shaolong scored 18 league goals and three Champions League goals, while Cristiano Ronaldo scored seven league goals, two Champions League goals, and a whole bunch of assists, and the media was full of praise for the two.

The duo's goals were so flashy that everyone else was on the verge of being overlooked, and the most embarrassing part was that Raul's performance was not at all among the overlooked players.

Direct rival Gonzalo Higuain has scored four goals in the league, three of which have come as substitutes.

Midfielder Marcos Alonso is getting better and better, earning praise for not only assists but also goals in the last game.

Not only these top stars, but even teammates like Granero, Marcelo, Arbeloa and others on the back line have scored in La Liga, but Raul has still not scored in the league, and he has four starts and three substitute appearances.

Raul is in a goal drought!

If it was before last season, it didn't matter if he fell into a goal drought, the coach would always give him time to adjust his condition, but now it's a little different, Real Madrid's strong squad can experiment with new formations in many games, the 4231 formation only needs one striker, and in terms of forward efficiency, he can't compete with Higuain at all, if Kaka is on the field, it is difficult for him to even find a substitute position.

This situation worries Raul.

'What happens when my performance deteriorates and Real Madrid don't need me anymore?' Raul couldn't even think about it, because he knew the answer was to leave, but having played for Real Madrid all his career, he couldn't make the decision to leave.

Raul could only endure the effort to train, and then found a small group of Zhen Shaolong, C-Ronaldo and Granero.

Raul just noticed that they were training, and he didn't care at all at first, but it was impossible to think about it after a long time, he saw a few times C-Ronaldo's wonderful footwork, even Granero can kick very accurately, the two marked a position on the inside of the goal, and tried to kick the ball to the exact position from a distance.

That's incredible!

"Cristiano Ronaldo's footwork is so good? And Esteban? Raul was only surprised at first, and still didn't pay too much attention to it, but as the game continued, he found that C-Ronaldo could even complete the set-piece on the side, and his mind suddenly became active, "They can play so accurately, is it related to the training of small groups?" ”

So here comes Raul.

In fact, Raul is also very good-looking, he doesn't really want to train with Zhen Shaolong, because both of them are forward players, it can be said that they are direct competitors, compared to training together, their shooting skills are much worse, and they will look very faceless, seeing that Zhen Shaolong is not training with C-Ronaldo and Granero, he simply walked over, "Can you count me as one?" ”

"Can you tell me about your training style?" With a soft smile on his face, Raul is inherently intimate.

Granero couldn't even feel like he could say no.

C-Ronaldo was still regretting his 'broken ring', and found that Raul didn't have much thought when he came over, but said, "Of course you can." ”

Then they practiced shooting together.

C-Ronaldo looked a little absent-minded, and Granero soon understood, he found a gap and leaned in and whispered, "What's wrong with you?" Why did you agree to let Raul come along? It's our secret! ”

"I'm sorry."

C-Ronaldo apologized, his mind suddenly became active, he felt that he was 'breaking the ring' that caused the skills to fail, Raul had never been exposed to the relevant skills at all, maybe he could prove it in Raul?

"Yes, you can try!"

Zhen Shaolong said that he couldn't tell others, and he had long been left behind by C-Ronaldo, you know, even he can't show his skills, how can he care about whether it is rumored or not.

C-Ronaldo and Granero looked at each other and discussed, "Why don't you let Raul try?" Maybe he could? ”

"But, Zhen said, don't tell others!" Grane Romano refused.

"You're a dead eye." C-Ronaldo commented, "We can't use our skills anymore, what's the point of telling or not telling others." ”

Granero continued to shake his head.

C-Ronaldo found that his ideas could not convince Granero, so he simply changed his perspective and said, "Look at Raul, he is a good person, a good person. ”

"Of course?" Granero wondered.

"I adore him, I respect him, we should help him!" C-Ronaldo said sincerely, "He is in his thirties, his form has been declining, and you have seen the performance in the game, even if he really learns the skills, how many years can he use it?" ”

"Right?"

"And, I believe Raul is the kind of person who keeps his word, just remind him not to tell anyone."

Granero hesitated, he asked, "But we should talk to Zhen, right?" ”

'Zhen Shaolong will agree to see - hell! ’

C-Ronaldo judged so in his heart, because after he couldn't use the technique, Zhen Shaolong didn't seem to care too much, just sighed over there, and didn't know why, but in any case, the other party definitely didn't agree to the 'biography', he had specially studied the culture and superb skills inherited from Chinese history, and there was a tradition of 'hiding it and not sharing it easily with others', he still had to persuade Granero, "It's okay, I believe Zhen will agree, he and Raul are friends." ”

"Is that so?"

"Of course."

"That'...... All right. "Granero hesitated for a long time, and finally agreed, in fact, after not being able to show his shooting skills, he also felt a little panicked, and also wanted to use Raul 'experiment', but it involved Zhen Shaolong, Granero felt that it was not very good, but he relied on Zhen Shaolong to become the main force, in case Zhen Shaolong got angry because of this, maybe he would soon be reduced to a substitute.

The two whispered on the side for a long time, Raul naturally noticed, he knew that the two were talking about themselves, but it was not good to ask anything, and he thought about it for a long time.

Cristiano Ronaldo came over to help answer, "We have discussed and taught you the most profound shooting skills." ”

“——？”

Raul was a little dazed.

"That's right." Granero, who has a good sense of eloquence, began to explain what so-called advanced technique was, "like this...... Such...... Shoot again......"

After everything was explained, he also explained, "Don't say that we told you, this is the trick Zhen told us, he didn't want others to know that we are friends, so he told you, Raul, you must remember, and don't tell anyone else." ”

“…… Good? ”

Raul hesitated and asked, "Does it really work?" "He doesn't feel reliable at all, it sounds a bit like fantasy magic, or the slogan of some and such a negative sect controlling its followers.

"Very effective!"

C-Ronaldo and Granero heard Raul's questioning, and immediately said how they felt about training in the past month, and what they said was the same as the truth, but it did match the performance of training and games, which made Raul believe a little.

Next, C-Ronaldo also reminded Raul in particular, "Before you fully learn, you must abstain from sex!" ”

"Forbidden...... Desire? ”

"Yes!" C-Ronaldo is very serious.

"How long?"

"Until you learn!"

C-Ronaldo's sincere and serious appearance gave Raul a little more confidence, in fact, he was not resistant to 'abstinence', and even felt that it was not a big deal.

Raul has always had a very happy family and loves his wife very much, he is a standard good husband, he will not be tempted by the outside world, and he always restrains himself, the marriage lasts for ten years, the wife is like a family, the frequency in life is not high, and abstinence for a period of time is not a big deal.

And then.

Raul was determined to study hard.

Although what C-Ronaldo and Granero said is a little unreliable, what if it is a little useful? As long as he can mention his performance and make himself more important in the team, he is willing to work hard for it.

Real Madrid's training was still very intense that day.

Although the players talked and laughed in training, the atmosphere in the team was actually a bit serious, as Real Madrid travelled to Italy the next day to face AC Milan at the San Siro Stadium.

This is Real Madrid's first test of the new European season.

Although it is only the group stage of the Champions League, for Real Madrid, which has a luxury squad and is highly anticipated by the outside world, the European results are what the outside world pays attention to, you know, in the past few seasons, Real Madrid has fallen in the round of 16 in a row, and there is no record of even passing once, and many other national media and fans are ready to watch Real Madrid's jokes.

Therefore, the group stage match with AC Milan has become a very important game, and there will be a large number of other fans to pay attention to.

The match was also seen by many media as a 'test of the European ability of Real Madrid's new squad'. ’
