Chapter 437: The Most Critical Player
Compared to previous seasons, Real Madrid has changed a lot this season.
One is the inauguration of the new president, Calderón.
Real Madrid is a membership-based club, and the president is elected, so it's like the United States has a new president, and the president will try to fulfill his election promises, and there will definitely be some changes in domestic and foreign policy.
Calderón is trying to fulfill his campaign promise, but the promised star cannot join Real Madrid quickly for the time being, and in order to gain the support of fans, he can only bring Real Madrid's former meritorious coach Capello.
The biggest impact on Real Madrid's team was also the arrival of Fabio Capello.
Fabio Capello has always been associated with titles, with AC Milan, Real Madrid, Roma and Juventus all winning their respective league titles, and his big stick and carrot policy has proven to be the most effective way to lead the team to the title.
Capello is back in charge of Real Madrid after a decade, and he is also highly anticipated by the Spanish media and Real Madrid fans.
Capello is different from the previous Real Madrid coaches, he is the coach who regards defense as the 'lifeline', in the summer Rimjatovic spent 64 million euros to buy stars in order to meet Capello's needs, Real Madrid has once again become the flagship of the La Liga transfer market, but unlike previous years, Real Madrid's recruitment focus began to shift to the midfield, in fact, the team's recruitment strategy has changed since the late Florentino administration.
On the one hand, it has to do with the lack of a superstar like Zidane in the market.
On the other hand, the defense is really unjustifiable.
The arrival of Cannavaro and Emerson is not surprising, the former is the new world champion and is very popular among Spanish fans, and the latter Real Madrid has been pursuing it for three years, and this landing at the Bernabeu is also a wish.
The total value of the two of them is 23 million euros, which is much lower than the normal value, which can be regarded as the political achievement of assistant Mijatovic after Calderón became president.
United's 'King of the Penalty Zone' Ruud van Nistelroy and Arsenal's 'former Spain duo' Reyes have also joined Real Madrid's squad.
Spanish media believe that "Van Nistelro's key pawn in overthrowing Real Madrid's attacking system, and Reyes is President Calderón's move to satisfy fans after introducing Kaka, Robben and Cesc Fabregas." ”
Reyes is on loan at Real Madrid.
However, the vast majority of media and fans believe that Reyes is almost impossible to return to Arsenal, and the long-term sluggish performance in the Premier League has made Wenger distrust Reyes, Arsenal does not have his place, and Reyes himself is more familiar with the environment in La Liga.
Mijatovic did his best to meet the dual needs of Capello and Calderón.
Also to be commended is Mijatovic's assistant, former Roma manager Bardini, who was mainly responsible for negotiating Diarra with Lyon, and eventually joined for 26 million euros by Capello as the world's best defensive midfielder.
With Diarra and Emerson, plus Cannavaro and Ramos, Real Madrid has the most luxurious defense in the world, and when the transfer was completed, Capello said: "Real Madrid has only lost three games a season at most." It seems to be a big word, but there is also a certain truth in it.
The defensive problems that have plagued Real Madrid for three seasons have been solved to the greatest extent with the arrival of new signings.
This season's Real Madrid has high hopes from the Spanish media and Real Madrid fans, but now many Real Madrid fans oppose Capello continuing to coach, the reason is that Real Madrid coached by Capello can no longer play good-looking football.
For Millwall, who is about to play against Real Madrid, Real Madrid's football is not good or not, it doesn't mean anything at all, and it is true that this Real Madrid team is difficult to deal with.
Zhang Yang and the rest of the coaching staff were very worried when they studied the style of play with Real Madrid, because Real Madrid's defensive configuration was too luxurious and the defensive ability was extremely strong.
Just look at one statistic – Real Madrid have only conceded eight goals in the past 23 La Liga games this season, an average of 0.35 goals per game.
This is still La Liga, which is advocating attack.
In the face of such a strong defensive line, how Millwall threatens Real Madrid's goal is a very brain-intensive problem.
Real Madrid don't just have to defend, they have a gorgeous frontline, they are big stars in every position, and while they are trying to break down the defense, Millwall can't pull down the attack.
Defend ...... It definitely can't be held.
Playing against the attack, Millwall suffered a little.
Zhang Yang thought about it for a long time, studied it in detail with the coaching staff, studied the game video of Real Madrid's draw or loss, and still came to Jalen: But the Bernabeu to play defense, or go to the crazy offensive A few paragraphs of the killing, the effect is not good for Real Madrid, if you want to win Real Madrid, you still need to use the 'double core' style of play, with the most powerful lineup, and Real Madrid have a direct competition!
————
Although the style of play with Real Madrid has been formulated, there are still some details to be done.
That's about Braniff.
There are still many media critics of Branifer's poor form, but Zhang Yang believes that Braniv will be a key player in the game against Real Madrid, and all he has to do is to motivate Braniv before the game.
Two days before the game, Zhang Yang was interviewed by the media, and when asked about the match against Real Madrid, he said, "I think the key player who determines the outcome of the game is not a big star of Real Madrid, but our Kevin Branifer. ”
The media were stunned by the rhetoric.
Braniff?
Branifer's performance before January was really good, but he wasn't a 'key figure in deciding the match between Real Madrid and Millwall', and he didn't play well, but Real Madrid were able to find a lot of stars who were better than Branifer.
In recent games, Braniff's performance can be described as a 'mess', how did he become a 'key player in determining the outcome of the game'?
The media reporters couldn't figure it out.
Zhang Yang continued with a smile, "Kevin is a very good player, and when I say 'quite', I don't mean the best in the world, but there is certainly no one in the Real Madrid team who can compare." ”
This guy is crazy, right?
The media reporters were dumbfounded, and they didn't know what Zhang Yang was talking about.
Braniff?
Overshadowing all Real Madrid players?
What the hell is wrong with this world!
The media reporters were silent, they didn't know what to say, they could only regard this as 'a smoke bomb released by Zhang Yang before the war between Millwall and Real Madrid'.
No outsider can understand the specific use of this 'smoke bomb'.
'Outsiders', excluding Millwall's players.
When Zhang Yang said those words to the outside world, Braniff suddenly became happy, and he finished the day's training with a smile on his face, and he put on a bullish look at every teammate.
Millwall's team-mates are used to it.
They didn't care what Braniv was like, but what they saw was that Braniff was the hardest working man.
"That's probably why the coach said that, right?" Many Millwall players thought, and at the same time, once again labeled Braniff as a 'mentally retarded child'.

Real Madrid Club, Spain.
Chairman Calderón is sitting in his office, browsing through the latest news.
Calderón's smile froze when he saw a report about an interview with Zhang Yang from the newspaper "As", and he felt angry when he recalled the embarrassment of Christmas, and when he saw the name of "Zhang Yang", he couldn't help but throw his lit cigar on the ground and stomp on it a few times.
Calderón then skimmed through the news.
"Kevin Braniff? Who's this? Millwall's players? Will he be a key player in the game? Can it overshadow all the stars of Real Madrid? Hahahaha......"
Calderon couldn't help but laugh when he saw the news, he felt that the Chinese must be crazy, and he even felt that a Millwall player could overshadow all the stars of Real Madrid.
Thinking about Millwall's results, Calderon still put away his smile.
Real Madrid are top of La Liga and Millwall are top of the Premier League.
When it comes to their respective achievements in the league, Millwall is no worse than Real Madrid, and the competition in the Premier League is even more fierce than La Liga, so Millwall's players really overshadow Real Madrid, and they can't be regarded as a joke entirely.
Calderon still attaches great importance to the match between Real Madrid and Millwall, and he demands that Real Madrid must win, preferably by a big score, in order to relieve his anger.
After thinking about it, Calderón called head coach Capello.
"Fabio, do you know 'Kevin Braniff'?" Capello asked.
"It's Millwall's player."
"Is it famous? Is it strong? ”
"How?" Capello was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "I don't need a player like Braniv in my squad, if you think about the end of the season, I think Darren Bent is more valuable, and he may be able to replace Van ...... in the future."
Before Capello could finish speaking, Calderón interrupted, "I'm not talking about that. I saw the news just now, that damn Chinese, praised Braniv a lot, and said that Braniv will be a key player in the game, I want you to know, you must be careful to deal with it. ”
Capello breathed a sigh of relief, "Braniff is not bad, but said to be the key to the game...... I don't know what the Chinese thinks, it's almost like a dream. After saying that, he comforted Calderón, "Don't worry, Ramon, we will win, and the game will be left to me." ”
Calderon then put down the phone.
Although Calderon is also dissatisfied with Capello's coaching style and hopes that Real Madrid can play gorgeous offensive football instead of focusing on utilitarian defense, he still recognizes Capello's coaching ability.
Capello said no problem, and it must be no problem.
