Despite all the disturbances, Espanyol are still actively preparing for the game. However, Wu Sanshi's reputation is no longer limited to the city of Barcelona, and occasionally fans in other cities will discuss him, and even Real Madrid fans will also bring it up to discuss it.

??“ Stone is actually a good fit for Real Madrid. ”

"If you continue to polish in La Liga, it is not impossible to join Real Madrid. I seem to see a little bit of Raul in him. ”

"Especially the way he celebrates his goal is like a template for Raul."

Some Real Madrid fans are also talking about Wu Sanshi.

"Technology doesn't work."

"It's far from Raul."

"You can't compare with Messi, you can't compare with Raul, you take it for granted."

"Don't make jokes like that."

"Playing Schalke 04 at home, it is estimated that they will kneel again. For Espanyol, basically every game is a battle of life and death, there are no weak teams. ”

"Not necessarily, I think you'll have to be slapped in the face."

"None of this is important, the important thing is that he is not handsome enough, and if he is not handsome, he will not be able to join Real Madrid."

With two matches in a week, such a competition basically needs to last until December, with five teams in each group and eight games to play, plus the domestic Copa del Rey schedule, the Spaniards have a rather dense schedule. The strength of the team compared with the opponent, there is no outstanding advantage, so the Spaniard is basically in a hard battle every game.

The reason why some teams give up some games is this, it is quite difficult to play on multiple fronts, and if the team does not have enough bench depth, it may end up empty.

But Valverde is an ambitious manager, and on Thursday, he still fielded the strongest squad to face Bundesliga powerhouse Schalke 04, but the veteran Rufitt was introduced in the right midfield position, and the other positions were unchanged.

Schalke 04 is very strong, but the fans don't know that Schalke 04 has had a bad time lately because they have a bit of a bad record in the league, with a clear home and away result, and an extremely bad away result. Otherwise, they wouldn't just be in the middle of the league right now. The tough points situation at home may be a drag on their European thinking.

In Valverde's opinion, Schalke 04 may not be able to care about European competition. In this case, shouldn't they be at home?

Sure enough, at noon on Thursday, the lineup given by the Schalke 04 coach made Valverde laugh badly and came off the bench! What does this mean? It means that Schalke 04 wants to give up the European competition and keep the domestic league.

Faced with such a reluctant substitute team, Espanyol were able to win 1-0 at home and sit second in Group A with seven points from three games, two wins and one draw, with Manchester City topping the table with more goals and seven points. The Spaniard's job is to stay at the top of the table, and it's all the more important to take on Paris Saint-Germain away after a round of rest.

Winning Schalke 04 is not the end of the road, the team will go to the Bernabeu to play Real Madrid, and the whole of Spain will be watching them. Because they drew at home to Barcelona, everyone wants to see how they go to the Bernabeu and play Real Madrid.

"Valverde will definitely not fight, he has fought three games in a row, won two wins and one draw, which is completely unexpected by him, this time against Real Madrid, he will definitely release the water and contribute to Real Madrid. Look at it, this game is definitely a loss, and there is a high probability of losing more than three goals. ”

"Le Monde Sport" can't wait to jump out and create pressure on the Spaniards, the game has not yet been played, but they have already begun to create public opinion pressure. This is a helpless thing, who called the Spaniards has always been said to be the little brother of Real Madrid, playing the Spaniards is as fierce as a tiger, playing Real Madrid will instantly become a sick cat, the Spaniards are the paradise of Real Madrid's goalscorers......

'Every season against Real Madrid, there are always Catalan media who jump out and say something and we're used to it, but they seem to have forgotten what happened last season, we have good results against Real Madrid and Barcelona and this season is no exception, we treat any team the same and try to win. Valverde was indispensable for mocking the media before the game.

"I don't know what they will do if we win against Real Madrid, will they make up stories, will they say that Real Madrid is not in good shape?"

In fact, Real Madrid's form was not great, and in the cold St. Petersburg, Schuster started with Cannavaro, who was hidden in the snow against Betis, and partnered Pepe, Ramos and Heinze. But even this line of defense is still blown up by St. Petersburg, and if it weren't for Casillas's bravery, Real Madrid would not have been able to get a victory back with difficulty. And the captain of the team was actually pressed on the bench by Schuster in 90 minutes, this season, Real Madrid are discussing the possibility of Ronaldo joining, Raul is revealed from time to time to be sold by Real Madrid, Cannavaro on the back line is also revealed to be sold back to the former club Juventus, Real Madrid's dressing room has not been stable.

No matter how much the Catalan media trampled on the Spaniards, Valverde always had an ambition. This can be seen in his attitude at the tactical meeting.

Wu Sanshi, Callejon and Tamudo were entrusted with the task of sitting together in the conference room to watch Real Madrid's midweek game away to St. Petersburg. They were going to learn the tridents of Zenit in St. Petersburg: Arshavin, Boglebnyak and Danny.

Arshavin, who became famous in the European Cup, is of course the number one target of the Real Madrid defense, if it weren't for Real Madrid's luck, Arshavin would have exploded Real Madrid alone.

Valverde even told Wu Sanshi directly: "Stone, you have to ravage the right side of Real Madrid like Arshavin." ”

"What Arshavin can do, you can do."

'Ramos is just a self-righteous jerk who likes to get forward and assist, and there's a big gap behind him.

"You've got to face Cannavaro, a player who has only a name for himself, don't be deterred by his Ballon d'Or, in fact when you rush up, he can't even see your shirt, the only thing he can do is defend with his eyes."

"They say it's their best defensive player, it's called the steel defence, but they're making a fool of themselves, and we can beat them."

When Valverde and Wu Sanshi were talking, Callejon looked at Wu Sanshi from time to time, his face full of disbelief.

At the end of the meeting, Callejon sighed: "The coach is really a deceitful. ”

"Why?"

"How can you possibly do what Arshavin does?"

"I'm pretty much the same."

“……”

"You said you were going to score in Barcelona last time, but you didn't."

“……”

"I gave up on scoring in order to give you an assist! Thank me for you, stone. Hopefully today we can still do it. ”

"Yes, we can still do it. I can't do it, but I can do it myself. ”

"Okay, man, come on."

"Come on."
