Chapter 475: Grievances and Deaths

The last book said that Zidane and Li Mudi, two good friends with an age difference of eleven years, met and fell in love (?). When the time entered the ninth year, it encountered a huge emotional crisis (!) )。

But this turmoil came quickly, and it didn't go slowly. After Veronica's seemingly inadvertently serving refreshments as a buffer, the Torino coach waited for his friend's mood to gradually calm down, (∩_∩)O

"Winnie's tea making is getting better and better, this is the dragon well I brought back from the Celestial Empire! It seems that you have become accustomed to using oriental green tea instead of the black tea commonly drunk in Europe. ”

"But this kung fu of cultivating the mind and cultivating qi is still not at home, and the outside has touted you as a descendant of metaphysics, do you really think that you can compare with Lao Tzu and other sages? I haven't said anything yet, you blew up the temple, the world is so wonderful, but you are so irritable, this is not good. Aren't you the most convinced of Lao Tzu's idea of goodness like water? I don't think he thinks the old man is talking about a waterfall! Let's calm down and not let personal impulsive emotions affect the atmosphere of this exchange. ”

This mess, coupled with the warning in his wife's eyes when he sent something over just now, finally forced back a rare anger that Zidane wanted to vent. But the Real Madrid coach was still waiting for his friend's explanation while pecking at the tea, but fortunately, Li Mudi did not let him wait too long.

"The people who say that you are cronyistic are those who deliberately provoke trouble, this is not a judge's judgment, the principle of fairness and justice must be strictly observed, which head coach does not have a few of his own descendants!"

As soon as he said this, the Turin coach, who saw the other party's face becoming more and more ugly, immediately reversed and said: "Of course, I'm not saying that the reason why you support Karim is because their personal relationship is very good, but anyone with some football common sense can understand that Ronaldo is the most important attack point of Real Madrid at present." In order to maximize his efficiency, the team needs a center forward who is good at running and can open up space for teammates, and using a terminator-type player will overlap with Ronaldo in terms of function, which means that Lewandowski, Icardi and other shooters will never perform better than Karim after they come, but will have a negative effect of 1+1<2. ”

Sure enough, after listening to these words, Qi Zu's face was finally no longer a cloud. However, the words behind the good friend did not continue to develop in the direction he hoped for, Li Mudi obviously wanted to do his last wave of efforts at this moment, to see if he could persuade the French to "abandon the darkness and turn to the light", otherwise what awaits Zizou and Real Madrid is likely to be a huge tragedy.

"Everyone admits that Cristiano Ronaldo's scoring ability is still the best on the planet, and almost any manager who coaches him will regard this quasi-star as the absolute attacking core of his team, so as to arrange the tactical play. But man, this Portuguese superman is no longer young, although through the unimaginable training intensity of ordinary people, he has not shown signs of a significant decline in ability for the time being, but the age of 33 does not lie, how long can such a powerful superhero Real Madrid have? ”

"I'm not saying to sell the number one star in the team, even at the age of 35 or older, I believe he's still one of the best footballers in the world. However, in order to prolong the peak of his athleticism, Ronaldo's area of activity will inevitably shift towards the opponent's penalty area as he gets older, which you must be well aware of as the head coach of the team. The percentage of his goals scored from inside the box has risen to nearly 65 per cent this season, and aside from penalties and free-kicks, the iconic long-distance runs and long-range goals are hard to see and only the uninitiate will not understand what they mean. ”

"From my personal point of view, Real Madrid's tactical thinking is mainly to pursue a faster push, and since Ronaldo is no longer suitable for the role of attacker, wouldn't it be the best solution to simply push him to the position of central striker? The team now has the two superstars of tomorrow, Kylian Mbappe and Marcos Asensio, as well as the likes of Isco and Vazquez, who can adapt to other style changes, and just need to find a qualified backup centre-forward. With Karim and Gareth still able to get some money back at the moment, make a decisive move on them, and then use the money to bring in De Gea and make some additions to the central midfield, Real Madrid's future is definitely worth looking forward to. ”

This plan is not the first time that Li Mudi has revealed it to his friends, but every time he talks about this aspect, Zidane will not give a trace of approval, and there is no accident today.

Seeing that the Torino coach temporarily stopped talking and moistened his throat with tea, the Real Madrid coach finally couldn't help it, and immediately refuted it when he was free: "Your theory is completely from the perspective of a bystander, whether a team can maintain a stable state is not only a requirement for reasonable configuration of players and clear tactics, but also a very important part of the atmosphere and unity in the team." Especially the world's top giants like Real Madrid, we can't ignore the impact of this aspect, how many cases of collapse have I found out before? ”

'You don't have the experience you had as a player, you don't have a lot of time in charge of the team, you don't know much about the team's unity. There are so many things to know in the dressing room at Real Madrid, not to mention the previous ones, but looking at the two periods after I played as a player in 2001-06 and returned to the Bernabeu as Jose's assistant in 2010, the internal unity of the team has always been quite problematic. ”

"In the original era of the Galaxy Battleship, due to the excessive difference between offensive players and defensive players at the club's top management, there was a great gap between the two parts of the players, and if it wasn't for Fernando (Hierro) and Raul who have been acting as a run-in agent in the middle, maybe that group of luxury divisions would have fallen apart long ago. But even so, Makelele chose to join the Premier League because he could not get the desired salary, which still completely sank the invincible battleship that won the Champions League three times in five years. ”

As for the current Real Madrid team, after the introduction of Cristiano and Karim, the second superstar era was started, but Raul's departure has made it impossible for a leader to lead the team in the dressing room. In order to establish the latter's status as the number one star in the team, Mr. Chairman squeezed the legendary goalkeeper from the Bernabeu by means. It's just that now that the captain has been replaced by Sergio, he is even more unlikely to impress those big-name stars with his hot temper and impulsiveness. ”

"You can guess what kind of effort I put into putting together a team full of talent but extremely paranoid. The outside world has criticized me for not paying attention to the team's youth and local players, but Asensio, Nacho and Vazquez have also been reused in my hands, and at the same time, in order not to let the Brazilian and Portuguese teams in the team unite too closely against the local players, I have also actively cooperated with the club's management in the past two years to complete the purge of Pepe, CoentrΓ£o and Danilo, and approved the introduction of young people such as Ceballos. ”

"It's not about asking for credit, as the manager of the world's biggest club, I think I've done my best to help the team get to the top and stay at that level for a long time. Although there are still all kinds of small problems in Real Madrid now, it is natural that anyone can say it for a long time, but at least the overall strength and cohesion of the team can still rank at the top level in the world, relying on the super stability of the squad and the leading role of superstars, which you can't deny. The most important factors that have made us and Barcelona the two strongest teams in the world in the last three to five years are the two things I just mentioned. ”

"And I'm not a flexible person who doesn't know, didn't the increased rotation that I learned from you last season also work really well? The team won the Champions League double for the first time in their history, and in that regard, you have contributed a lot to that honour, and Real Madrid should be very grateful to you. However, due to the departure of Alvaro Morata and Cristiano Ronaldo, it was difficult for the new recruits to show qualified performance for the time being, and I had to go back to the old way of using the main force before, and I was sprayed by you. But who can understand me! ”

"I did give the youngsters a lot of opportunities during Cristiano Ronaldo's suspension at the beginning of the season, but the winless streak left me and the whole team with no way out, and young people such as The'o and Ceballos were criticized during that time, and I had to make the decision to reduce their playing time in order to protect their mental state and for the sake of the team's results. And it turns out that after the return of veterans such as Ronaldo and Bale, although the team's state still has occasional ups and downs, on the whole, it has recovered the confidence of a strong team, which is the capital for this Real Madrid team to reach the Champions League final for the third consecutive year! ”

"I also thought of your suggestion to make Cristiano Ronaldo a central striker and to promote Mbappe and Asensio, but after careful consideration, I felt that this would limit the player's own technical ability, which would be detrimental to the team. And at the beginning of the season, I also tested the player's own ideas through Mendes (Ronaldo's agent), but the feedback I got was not optimistic, he thought that he was still more used to playing with the ball more, and was not willing to play the role of a finisher in the opponent's penalty area, so this proposal could only be temporarily shelved. ”

"And given Ronaldo's personality, I don't think the idea of putting him in the centre-forward position first, at least when he was at the Bernabeu. It has already been rumored that the club will start a new round of contract renewal negotiations with him after the end of this season, and according to the previous agreement, it will be a super contract comparable to Messi's annual salary of 40 million after tax. Once the contract extension is completed, unless I dare to throw the quasi-ball king with a huge salary on the bench, the combination of him and Karim cannot be easily dismantled, even if you give me a new center forward with a similar style, there is no guarantee that he and Cristiano Ronaldo will work together to the extent they are now, which is the main reason why I tried so hard to keep the French striker. ”

"On top of that, I don't want to spoil the atmosphere of the relative river crabs in the team. Don't be afraid of your jokes, there is still friction between the local gang led by Ramos and the foreign gang led by Ronaldo, and the two sides have previously launched a secret battle over whether to replace Navas with De Gea. In the end, Ronaldo supported the Costa Rican international in an interview with the media, which made Ramos and others, who had been hoping that the main goalkeeper of Spain could join, very unhappy, but because the latter was the first captain of the team, they could only temporarily endure this breath due to the disadvantage in numbers and overall influence, but the hidden danger remained. ”

'You haven't known Cristiano for a day or two, and if the club sells Karim or brings in David De Gea against his will, if he loses his temper, the whole team is likely to fall apart. So if you want to complete what you see as a refresh, you have to convince the number one star in the team, and this is almost an impossible task. Of course, you can also choose to go straight to Cristiano Ronaldo, but in that case, can Real Madrid afford to lose the quasi-goalkeeper? Anyway, I'm not very optimistic about this plan. ”

"I know that the club is trying to contact Paris Saint-Germain to buy Neymar and there are a lot of fans who think the Brazilian star can replace Cristiano Ronaldo as the new core of the team. They can be so fantasical, but as the manager of Real Madrid, I don't want to take such a big risk to change all the front-line players in the team. If the Torino team wants to sell Immobile, Belotti and others this summer, and then exchange for new signings with the same ability as them, so that the team can start to run in and find form again, would you agree? ”

After hearing Qi Zu's similar complaint, Li Mudi finally understood his friend's helplessness at the moment, so that his previous belief that the BBC should be purged was almost completely overturned. At this moment, all that was left in the Turin coach's heart was deep sympathy for Qi Zu.

Who would have thought that even the former world footballer, who became the head coach of the all-time championship in almost two and a half years, would be so tormented by the team's future development plans when he is about to usher in the moment of incomparable glory of the Champions League for three consecutive years?

In a word, Real Madrid's handsome position is really not something that ordinary people can sit on, it is simply a hellish existence, is there any!
