Arsenal, Atletico Madrid, Olympiacos, Borussia Dortmund!

The day after Atletico Madrid, who won the UEFA Super Cup, returned to Monaco for the group stage draw for the 2011-12 UEFA Champions League, and the whole Atletico team watched the live broadcast.

They were placed in Group F, hailed by the media as the closest group in the aftermath, and after Wenger lost a season of fourth, he finally showed his attributes to fight for the top four last season.

And Dortmund was the Bundesliga champion last season, and under the tutelage of Scumbag Klopp, they flew up with heavy metal offense and beat Bayern in the country.

Not to mention Atletico Madrid, who have just won the UEFA Cup and the Super Cup in a row!

And what excites Mackin is that he can play two games with Klopp, the future manager of the Reds, and he has an indescribable expectation.

Now that history has been completely changed by him, he can't say for sure whether Klopp will go to the Reds in the future, but Klopp's football will become a special one no matter how the world changes.

"Bang", Ancelotti asked his assistant to turn on the lights, turned off the projection TV, turned around and said: "Very good, our opponents are not top giants, but they are also very strong, this is a very close group"

'Even though 70 per cent of our squad is playing in the Champions League for the first time, you don't want to go home in the group stage and if you want to have a successful season, the second half of the year is very important, and in three days the league will start in earnest and I hope you are all ready'

In addition to watching the draw ceremony today, Ancelotti is also preparing to hold a pre-season team meeting, and the first thing is to clarify the goal.

Even if it is a relegation team, there must be this procedure before the season, which is called unified thinking, of course, most of the team knows it, but isn't it still a few new people in the summer.

As the captain of the team, Mackin still stood up first and spoke.

"I miss the Champions League very much, I heard the opening song and my blood was in my blood, last year was my first season without playing in the Champions League, I'm glad I'm back, the Champions League knockout round, it should be our real stage", said Mackin impassionedly.

"Rada (Falcao), you won't be willing to be the top scorer in the UEFA Cup, right?"

"Ah Kun (Aguero), I remember you haven't played in the knockout rounds yet?"

"Gabi, you're at your peak right now......"

Mack Qin glanced at them one by one and said one by one, it is also very depressing to think about, the most experienced in the Champions League of Atletico Madrid team is actually the 20-year-old Macqin.

"With the most enterprising determination, we want to win, win the league, win the Copa del Rey, win the Champions League, the whole of Spain knows what kind of team we are in and what we are pursuing, so we don't have to cover our ears and steal the bell, if we win, we will hi together, and if we lose, we will carry it together!"

What a perfect player, Carlo Ancelotti couldn't help but think of Andrea Pirlo and Maldini, who were the core of the pitch and the core of the dressing room, and now Mackin has perfectly combined the two.

Although he was largely a superstar last year to captain, it has to be said that he did well last season.

The arrival of the Qatar Bureau is destined to be a multinational force, they need a strong helmsman, and Atletico Madrid's native Gabi is still a little worse in terms of personal influence.

"Let's have a big fight", Gabi cooperated very well, took the lead in standing up and stretched out his hand, and more and more teammates immediately put their hands on it.

"Roar, do a big job......"

Looking at this energetic team, Ancelotti couldn't help but feel gratified, this old man is not inconspicuous, his emotional intelligence is extremely high, all the old qualifications have been processed by him, and they are now a young army full of desire for honor.

There will naturally be factions, but he believes that Mackin can hold it down, after all, no one will joke with their future on such a platform.

……

Marca: La Liga is about to be rekindled at the weekend, with the opening match of the last three in the spotlight and the world will want to see what they can do in the league after a summer of preparations.

As: Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo last season were phenomenal, they scored 53 goals throughout the season, the difference is that Ronaldo won the La Liga Golden Boot, while Messi won the Champions League Golden Boot.

But let's not forget Mark, who finished with 30 goals and 20 assists in the absence of four months last season, and this season, I believe the three of them will definitely face a more fierce battle.

Sky Sports La Liga expert Balagu: Barcelona has fully entered the maturity of the team, and Real Madrid have also got the high striker and left-back that Mourinho wants, Atletico Madrid have deepened their bench depth and added the top scorer in the League Cup to Falcao.

If nothing else, we will see a full-blown rise in La Liga against the Premier League in this year's Champions League, and of course, Barcelona and Real Madrid reached the last four last year.

This weekend in Spain at the end of August, fans returned to their old passions, arranging their time, booking tickets and waiting for the opening match of their teams.

Mahadaonda's training base was much more lively than usual, with shouts from inside the stadium and a clamor of fans and reporters outside the stadium.

All of them indicate one thing, the new season is about to begin!

Atletico Madrid's opening match was at home to Calderón against mid-table side Osasuna, and they are still preparing for the game at the training ground.

"Gabi, Juan (Mata)," Carlo Ancelotti called the two to the sidelines as he blew the whistle and called them to the sidelines to give another detailed lecture.

Ancelotti's four-cornered attacking group has been a central tactic for Carlo Ancelotti all summer, with Sanchez anchored on the left as an in-cut perimeter and Juan Mata on the right as a playmaker.

Sergio Aguero was a cruising nine-and-a-half, Marc was a free man in midfield, and Ancelotti repeatedly stressed the synergy between Mata and Gabi.

When they play weak teams, the opponents mostly use defensive counter-attacking tactics, at this time the organization of the midfield does not make much sense, because it is easy to advance to the opponent's 40 meters, so when Ancelotti asks for a central striker, Mataneche retreats and Gabi controls the midfield.

In order to release Mackqin's ability to insert forward, he naturally did not forget that Macqin can play a false No. 9, but Ancelotti gave him absolute freedom, depending on the opponent and the situation on the field, let him decide his own position, what he has to do is how to make the whole team maintain a good balance of three lines in the case of this position change.

"In the second attack, we need to control the second landing point after the failure of the attack, restrain the opponent's counterattack, form a continuous attack, the left and right full-backs will keep in line with you, and when we play tough battles, your delivery to the front line is crucial."

"Pay attention to Mark's position, you have to keep the right triangle distance from him at all times, and when he is up front, you have to be bold in control and organising, and you have to be steady"

Coaching like this, Carlo Ancelotti has been doing all summer, and it is not so easy to shape a team, but Ancelotti is happy that Atletico now has countless No.10s for him to choose from, and don't forget that there are still Koke and Isco on the bench.

"Yo roar ......", not long after retraining, Mackin shook on the right side of the penalty area, and broke through the door of the substitute goalkeeper Robles with a flat curling ball.

Cáceres, who was defending him, saw the ball in the net, turned around and looked at him in surprise, he didn't expect that he would not see him for a year, and Mackin would still improve.

They had been teammates at Liverpool, and they were abused all day at that time, so of course they knew Mackin well, and now he has an indescribable feeling that Mackin has better consistency in his movements.

"Mark, you're improving again, it's really scary," he said casually.

"Really?" No one took the goal in the training match seriously, and they chatted while walking back, "I don't seem to feel anything, maybe it's too small."

"Definitely, you used to have an unbelievable imagination of passing and shooting, but when you deal with the ball at your feet, it feels very simple, and it looks like it came out of the England Academy"

"But now I feel like you're more agile on your feet, and you've added a lot of the irregularities of our South American players, but sometimes it works really well in the game, and you seem to be more flexible."

"Oh, that's true," laughed Mackin laughed.

"Zidane's wife is a dance teacher, I estimate that his flexibility is practiced by his wife, Issa gets along well with his wife here, and she is also fascinated, I had to do a sparring partner, I didn't expect to practice for more than half a year, I feel that my body's balance and flexibility have really improved"

"You say yoga and Pilates"

"That's right"

"Indeed, you see that we South Americans are flexible because we love to dance, you are not old, you are practicing at the right time, and it also helps to reduce the chance of injury......"

However, Mackin chatted with Zidane and asked him to teach him the experience of playing as a midfielder, but he refused, saying that first, there is nothing to teach, and the rest is to rely on countless games to grind the style more rounded, and second, as Real Madrid's sworn enemy, he can't collaborate with the enemy!

This directly led to the dissatisfied Mack Qin cursing him in his heart for being elevated by Mu Bird in Real Madrid, and he was bald!

Later, he directly asked his assistant to find all the classic game footage of Zidane's time at Real Madrid, just like he used to learn from Pirlohaghi.

If you don't teach, if you don't teach, you'll learn it cleanly!

In the midfield, Pirlo and Zidane have entered their own rhythm at their peak, which is what Macqin has been looking for, but he can't find it, sometimes he feels like he can play it, sometimes he can't figure it out, this thing can't be explained.

But when it's on the field, it's as bright as a diamond, and everyone can see it.

Or to put it this way, Mackin is playing football now, beautiful is beautiful, but not mellow enough, not natural enough, and many times he himself does not know how to describe it.

Sometimes he often considers:

Does Ronaldo have a rhythm? No, he's like a sharp gun.

Does Messi have rhythm? Yes, but that was the rhythm of his dribbling, not the rhythm that Mackin wanted.

The rhythm that really makes him envious is only Pirlo, Zidane, and half of Raul, yes, Raul in the penalty area at the best time has his own rhythm.

The ball they kick is not sharp, not as fast as lightning, but beautiful, and it looks slow, but you just can't keep up with his movements.

This is the kind of state that Mackin wants to achieve, and this is the rhythm he wants.

To get to this level, you don't need to be outstanding, you don't need to be fast, you don't need a strong body, you can play a lot of defenders in the palm of your hand, and you can take what you want.

This sense of superiority in the realm is more intoxicating than innate strength and speed.

It just so happened that he wasn't strong enough, and he didn't have top speed, which was like the road to the highest peak that attracted him, and it made his heart soar from time to time.

The best one, he wants to be more than just an advertisement, not just a talk......
