The long season lasts for 10 months, with countless challenges and crises in between.

Any team, in the long ten-month journey, will inevitably have all kinds of problems.

It could be the ups and downs of a player's form, or an injury to an important player, or something that some players are upset about, or it could be that a player has been poached from the outside world and is no longer focused.

It is precisely because there are all kinds of problems that need to be solved by the head coach that some people will say that the head coach is a very comprehensive profession today, not only in football, but also in terms of management skills, communication skills, and even negotiation and psychology.

All in all, football has always been a very, very complex sport.

Real Madrid have had some trouble in recent times, which is not a big problem, but it is enough of a headache.

One is that Marcelo was injured, he was injured in the game against Atletico Madrid, at first he thought it was not a big problem, but then the situation did not improve, and after a detailed diagnosis, it is estimated that he will have to rest for a while.

But it's not a big problem, as Cesar Azpilicueta can handle that position, even if he is stronger defensively than attacking.

And then there's the renewal.

Teenager Hesse has shone this season and is now even showing signs of being a rotational player, which has also made Eden Hazard more industrious, otherwise he might not be able to hold the youngster down.

There is no problem with Jesse's potential and talent, coupled with the past two or three years of training and physical training with Yang Yang, his physical fitness has improved very much, and he has laid a very solid foundation, coupled with his excellent performance in the recent period, he is more and more confident the more he plays, and the more confident he is, the better he will play.

Against Getafe, Ancelotti even asked him to start in place of Hazard, which shows that this kid is a little overwhelmed.

Although Hesse is a little young and frivolous, there is still a Yang Yang on top of his head, even now that he is famous, he is still obedient every day to return early and late to practice with Yang Yang.

He is not very convinced by anyone, but only Yang Yang, who is obedient, and Yang Yang also takes good care of him both in the dressing room and on the field, such as the assist against Getafe.

This also seems to confirm the fact that Hesse is Yang Yang's apprentice.

As the saying goes, there are people above who are easy to do, and with the big tree of Yang Yang, Hesse's status in Real Madrid will naturally rise.

The attacking lineup in the front court was already very competitive, even Robben was forced to the bench by Di Maria, and Jesse suddenly emerged, the competition was even more fierce, and Morata undoubtedly became the saddest one.

is also a young player, Morata is tall and strong, has a header advantage, and was originally favored to partner with Yang Yang, but now it seems that Suarez and Jesse obviously have more chances, because Real Madrid has begun to penetrate more on the ground.

But Morata's problem is not a big problem, and Jesus' contract extension will not be a problem, the real problem is Isco.

……

The Málaga man came to Real Madrid with the aura of Europe's golden boy, he helped Málaga play very well in the Champions League and La Liga in the previous season, and after coming to Real Madrid, he quickly showed great individual ability, and even showed signs of snatching the main position.

At the beginning of the season, everyone felt that Real Madrid's 30 million euros were buying a midfield core for the next ten years, and it was also the world's top midfield core.

However, after the impressive start of the season, Isco quickly faded.

David Silva, who had been pressed down on the bench by him, quickly regained his starting position, and with a solid and unshakable Modric, Isco was completely squeezed out of the starting line-up.

Especially recently, whether it was against Atletico Madrid or then Getafe and Villarreal, Isco was on the bench, but he did not get a chance to play, which is deeply regrettable for the Malagans.

After all, he is a twenty-one-year-old young man, there must be a big gap between his situation, and he doesn't know how to self-regulate, which makes him look a little lonely whether he is in the locker room or on the training ground.

Coupled with his introverted personality and relatively poor communication and dealings with people, he looks a little out of place in the locker room, but everyone can see his problems and knots, but no one can stand up.

At present, Real Madrid's two captains, Casillas and Raul have similar personalities, they are the kind of leaders who silently lead the team with their words and deeds, they rarely take the initiative to communicate with their teammates, and Ramos, although outgoing, is very arrogant, and he basically doesn't care about such small details.

And the team has been in the heat recently, the Champions League is about to start again, and Ancelotti and the coaching staff are also busy.

You must know that Real Madrid has been playing two games in a row since the beginning of January during the winter break, and they are so busy that they don't even have time to stop and breathe, let alone worry about the emotions of the players.

During a lunch break, while everyone else was playing games and watching TV in the recreation room, Isco sat alone at the bar in the pantry, not knowing what he was thinking.

Yang Yang, who was about to go back to his room to sleep, suddenly moved in his heart and walked over.

…………

…………

"Boiling water?"

Yang Yang came to Isco with a thermos kettle, looked at the already empty water cup in his hand, and asked.

When Isco saw that it was Yang Yang, he nodded politely, "Thank you." ”

poured him a small half glass of water, but Yang Yang did not leave, but stood opposite him, drinking water, and observing him at the same time.

In Yang Yang's superficial understanding, Isco should belong to the kind of player whose strengths and weaknesses are outstanding.

Real Madrid's current team is full of superstars, but when it comes to ball control footwork, Isco says second, I'm afraid no one dares to admit first, even Hazard and Marcelo.

Yes, it is the left full-back Marcelo, this guy's footwork is also seriously underestimated, Yang Yang is even thinking that if he played left winger, it is estimated that he will also be a world-class left winger.

Isco's strength is his aura, anyone who sees him play will find it pleasing to the eye, very spiritual, very likable, very good at dribbling and passing, and getting rid of it is a must, these are his forte.

But the disadvantages are also obvious, the first is the sticky ball.

In the modern football tactical system, sticky balls are a very serious problem because sticky balls represent slow pace and inefficiency.

There is also the fact that his speed is slow and his physical confrontation is insufficient.

If you are a veteran fan, you will not be unfamiliar with a player, that is, the Brazilian genius who once set a record for the transfer fee in world football set by Real Betis, and Denilson, who became famous in the World Cup in 98.

Denilson is recognized as a genius all over the world, otherwise, Real Betis would not be stupid enough to buy him to La Liga for the first day of the world's price, but he has never been able to adapt to European football, why?

It's because of his slow speed.

The slow speed leads to no matter how strong his ability is to pass and no matter how good his footwork is, it is useless, because he can't create a threat.

Isco is like this now, he has a technical advantage, but he is slow and not strong in physical confrontation, and after a dashing and elegant pass, he is quickly intercepted by the opponent, and often faces more ferocious pressing.

This raises the question of Zidane's slow speed, but why has he become a legend?

Because Zidane's physical confrontation ability is very strong!

And whether it is speed or physical confrontation, Isco has no advantage.

Normally, all Isco can do is get past or get rid of the ball quickly and accurately, which is also a way to create a threat, but Isco's sticky habit has limited him.

Frankly speaking, Yang Yang likes Isco very much, likes his style of playing, likes the agility of his play, and likes the joy he enjoys football, which reminds him of former Barcelona superstar Ronaldinho.

But Yang Yang has to admit that if he is the head coach of the team, he will probably win Isco too, because Real Madrid is not Malaga!

The giants have more options, and the opponents and challenges they face are more difficult, so the giants have higher requirements for players, Malaga can let Isco play the core, and even in Pellegrini's tactics, Isco is like a free man who is outside the overall tactics of the team, and can play as he pleases.

But at Real Madrid, it's simply not possible!

Not only because of the star-studded squad of Real Madrid, but also because of the stronger opponents Real Madrid face.

……

"Have you ever thought about changing yourself?" Yang Yang suddenly broke the silence.

Isco, across the bar, looked up and stared at him with a blank look.

'I've played a few games with you, I've seen one of your reports in Malaga, and I remember that manager Manuel Pellegrini asked you to stick the ball less and make fewer unnecessary mistakes, but you refused, and I was very impressed by what you said at the time.

'I like to try new things in the game, I improvise, I don't like to grab the ball, I'm tired of running off the ball to get rid of the marking, I like to pass people, I'm not afraid to be broken, even when I'm training with the national team, even Xavi, I still want the ball, that's my style, the style of street football.

Yang Yang looked at Isco with a smile, as if asking, am I right?

Isco was a little flattered, Yang Yang had read his report and even remembered his name, he was not surprised at all, but Yang Yang remembered what he had said, which made him very surprised.

"Don't guess my mind." Yang Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I just simply agree with your words, as many people say, my talent in playing football is not high, I don't have that kind of talent, so I have always admired and liked players like you or Messi." ”

Isco was a little shy, shook his head and said, "I can't compare with Messi." ”

But in his heart, he was happy that Yang Yang put him with Messi.

"No, I think you're all the kind of players who can bring freshness and creativity to a dull game, because football is so much about efficiency and stability that it feels like it's becoming mechanical."
