Zidane let out a long sigh.

When Real Madrid wanted to send Makelele away, he tried his best to dissuade him, but unfortunately Florentino did not listen to what he said at that time, and the president of Real Madrid at that time was carried away by the success of the previous three seasons.

But in the following three years, professional football taught him the most painful lesson.

Now, Florentino is back in action, and although he pays more attention to defenders than before, he is still far inferior to the attackers up front, not only for Real Madrid, but also for Barcelona.

No, what is the fragility of Barcelona's backline, but has Barcelona brought in reinforcements?

No, instead of that, Alexander Song was loaned out.

For these big teams, sticking to their football traditions is like some kind of political correctness.

But it is precisely because of the pain of Makelle that Zidane decided to avoid a similar tragedy no matter what, otherwise, he is worried about whether the second phase of the Galaxy will be able to continue to persevere.

……

Speaking of this heavy topic, both of them suddenly lost some interest in chatting.

At this time, Ancelotti also suddenly appeared in the café, and when he saw the two sitting opposite each other, the Italian immediately walked over with a smile and pulled out a chair directly next to Yang Yang and sat down.

"What are you talking about?" Ancelotti asked with interest.

Yang Yang and Zidane glanced at each other and laughed.

"We're talking about the Barcelona fans outside, and how will tomorrow's game be played?" Yang Yang replied.

Ancelotti suddenly came to his senses, "It just so happens that I was also worried about this matter just now, what do you think?" ”

It was you who asked, but in fact, it was Yang Yang.

Zidane is an assistant coach, his opinion should have been mentioned in the coaching staff meeting, Yang Yang's idea is what Ancelotti is most concerned about now, and he also knows very well that he must stabilize Yang Yang, the number one star in the team, no matter what.

If even Yang Yang stands up and doubts him, then it may be difficult for him to hold out until the end of the season.

Yang Yang's brows furrowed slightly, he groaned for a while, and then he spoke: "I think Mascherano should still be allowed to return to the starting lineup." ”

'Luka Modric did well in training, and you saw that against Levante before. Ancelotti explained nervously.

Yang Yang nodded, "I know, playing Levante, Modric's performance is indeed very good, but Levante is not Barcelona." ”

Ancelotti realized that he was a little too nervous and calmed down, "Tell me about it." ”

"Barcelona's midfield is very impactful, Xavi has basically lost his main position, I can conclude that this game should be Iniesta and Rakitic, both players are very impactful, and the ability to insert back is very good."

Ancelotti and Zidane both nodded in unison, and Yang Yang's words hit the nail on the head.

"I don't deny that Luka Modric is still the best playmaker in world football today, but I can feel that his body is indeed declining, and if he continues to stick to the way he played in the first half, not only will he not be able to stand it, but his partner Toni Kroos will also be unbearable, and playing Schalke 04 is the best proof of this."

In the post-match review, everyone could see that Tony Kroos was like a headless fly, and he could only blindly chase Schalke Zero Four to run, because he had no choice.

'Between the defence and the midfield, we need a player who can stand up and his presence can greatly ease the defensive pressure on Luka Modric and the other midfielder, so that Modric can be more involved in the playmaking and attacking.

Ancelotti and Zidane are not stupid, as soon as Yang Yang said this, they all understood, and even reacted, perceiving Yang Yang's tactical proposition for this derby of the century.

"Do you think you should play defensive counter-attacks again?" Ancelotti asked.

Yang Yang smiled, "Luis Enrique is playing defensive counterattacks at the Bernabeu Stadium. ”

After that game, Enrique was also criticized, and many people believed that he gave up the traditional passing and possession, so he finally lost the game and ended in a miserable defeat.

But only the Real Madrid players who were actually involved in the game knew that it was actually a dangerous game.

'From a strategic point of view throughout the season, we are four points ahead and the people who are desperate to win the game should not be us, but the opponents, who have to win to close the gap as soon as possible. Yang Yang reminded.

Playing strategy, the Chinese have never lost to anyone, and Sun Tzu's Art of War is a great treasure.

For Barcelona, if it can't take advantage of the Camp Nou to win Real Madrid and shorten the points gap, then it will be too passive to pin their hopes on other teams and on Real Madrid to make mistakes themselves.

So they should be more anxious than Real Madrid.

On the contrary, Real Madrid, with a four-point advantage in hand, even if this one is a draw, they can still accept it.

"From a single game point of view, Neymar has not been in good form lately, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are on fire, but beware, Cristiano Ronaldo needs space, Messi needs the ball, we need to squeeze them together so that the two of them can't form a synergy."

Ancelotti drew inferences and quickly realized what Yang Yang meant.

"What you mean is to pull Barcelona out and play them, so that their defensive counter-attacks can't be played, and they turn into tough battles, forcing them to have to go back and forth between the midfield and the back, exhausting their energy, playing counter-attacks when they have the opportunity, and consuming their physical energy when they don't have the opportunity."

Yang Yang nodded, "Busquets has just returned from injury, I don't know if he will start, Iniesta is no longer at his peak, although Rakitic is in good form, but Barcelona has also been fighting on two fronts in recent times, and the physical consumption is very large, especially against Manchester City, so the first half may be able to deal with it, but the second half is ......"

When Zidane heard this, he immediately understood, "Barcelona is like this, and we are even more so." ”

Real Madrid has not only fought on two fronts in recent times, but also on three fronts, including encountering Atletico Madrid and Barcelona in a row in China, and this kind of hard-fought schedule is really fatal.

In addition, the next Champions League quarterfinals also encountered Atletico Madrid, which consumed too much.

"That's right, so we can't take the initiative to fight with the opponent."

Ancelotti and Zidane glanced at each other, and they both saw the look in each other's eyes.

Yang Yang's analysis is very complete, from the season strategy to the single-game matchup, he can really be said to have done enough work, and the situation judgment of Real Madrid and Barcelona is also in place, on the whole, playing defensive counterattack is indeed a very reasonable choice.

Compressing the space of Barca's front trident and widening the distance between Barca's three lines, which in turn forced them to run more and tandem, is good for Real Madrid.

But if you want to limit Barcelona's front trident, you have to have someone in the midfield position.

Yang Yang didn't say it, but Ancelotti could detect what he meant from his words, that is, Real Madrid needed Mascherano and Ilia Ramendi, and could no longer use two technical midfielders to form a double midfielder like Schalke 04

To put it bluntly, Yang Yang believes that Modric and Toni Kroos have struggled to regain the kind of dominance they had in the first half.

Is that really the case?

Ancelotti has reservations, but Yang Yang's opinion must also be taken seriously.

As the world's top manager, Carlo Ancelotti also reflected afterwards, and he also realized that he was a little rushed, which made the players in the dressing room have some doubts and distrust of him.

Now, he really can't make Yang Yang suspicious again, otherwise, the next situation will be even worse.

"I'll go back and discuss with them now, and I'm going to come up with a plan tonight and have a meeting tomorrow morning."

After saying that, Ancelotti drank the cup of coffee in front of him that had been sitting for a while in one gulp, then stood up and said goodbye and left.

Zidane hesitated, pouted at Yang Yang, and reluctantly followed.

As an assistant coach, he also had to stay up late.

Yang Yang was the most relaxed, and after watching the two leave, he shook his head with a smile and motioned to the waiter in the café to bring him another cup of hot water.

If you really want to be an assistant coach for Zidane, how can you have this leisure in the future?

…………

On the evening of March 22, 21 sharp, Camp Nou in Barcelona.

In the 28th round of La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Barcelona away.

Barcelona, playing at home, fielded their strongest line-up, with Bravo in goal, Alba, Mathieu, Pique and Alves at the back, Sergio Busquets in midfield, Andres Iniesta and Rakitic up front, and Neymar, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi in the trident.

Barcelona has been setting off smoke bombs before the game, threatening that Busquets will not have time to play, but in fact, Barcelona's midfielders are in the starting lineup, and no one knows how much they have recovered.

Real Madrid's side lined up a four-three-three lineup, with Courtois in goal, Marcelo, Vermaelen, Ramos and Carvajal at the back, Mascherano in the midfield, David Silva and Luka Modric in the middle, and Hazard, Yang Yang and Di Maria in the front.

Suarez was put on the bench for this game, and as for when he will be arranged, it will depend on the situation on the field.

Obviously, Ancelotti listened to Yang Yang's advice, showed weakness to the enemy in the opening game, and took the initiative to retreat.

As soon as Yang Yang got the ball, he was immediately booed by nearly 100,000 fans from the stands at the Camp Nou, who were obviously trying to interfere with Yang Yang in this way, and it was best to scare him into fear.

Real Madrid's initiative to retreat surprised Barcelona.

In the past few years, Real Madrid has achieved brilliant results, especially in the past two years, and has taken the initiative to play Barcelona.

Luis Enrique was also frowning on the sidelines, and his original strategy was to beat Real Mara, but he didn't expect Ancelotti, the old fox, to shrink back.

Now it's tricky!

The Barcelona coach kept rubbing his hands, a little anxious.
