readx;
In the end, Real Madrid beat Valencia 2-0 on their home turf, with C. Ronaldo and Kaka scoring a goal each, while Chu Zhongtian scored an assist. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It can be said that Chu Zhongtian's goal of assisting Kaka completely extinguished the flame of Valencia's counterattack.
After this game, the only teams that can remain unbeaten in La Liga are Chu Zhongtian's Real Madrid and Real Madrid's sworn rival Barcelona.
Barcelona are currently top of the table, while Real Madrid are second on goal difference.
The media have said: "This season's La Liga has become a situation where Real Madrid and Barcelona compete for hegemony early......"
So the league title may only be decided by two national derbies. Whoever can win is likely to be the champion. A team that loses to a sworn enemy loses not just three points, but morale.
There have been cases like this before. Before the 34th round of the 2008-2009 season in the national derby, Juan de . Real Madrid's 17 wins and 1 draw, including a 10-game winning streak and a 7-game winning streak, are only four points away from Barcelona and have four rounds left in the league. The result? Real Madrid lost to Barcelona with a humiliating score of 2-6 on their home turf. The match decided the final winner of the league title, as Real Madrid, who suffered a heavy defeat at home to Barcelona, suffered a heavy defeat and low morale, and came back to a four-game losing streak in the following four league games...... Therefore, the suspense of La Liga's championship attribution, as long as the state of Barcelona and Real Madrid is not a problem, is basically produced between them.
This season is even more so. Because both sides have strengthened their strength. Real Madrid, in particular, brought in a number of players to play against Barcelona. Among them, 70 million euros were bought by Chu Zhongtian, which is considered to be directly aimed at Barcelona. Because Chu Zhongtian almost single-handedly defeated Barcelona in the Champions League final and became famous.
Real Madrid won against Valencia at their home stadium but did not move them up the rankings as Barcelona also won. However, this is good news for Real Madrid's devilish schedule. The two toughest teams in this fixture have already won and it's going to be easier.
For Mourinho, now he has to think about how to organically combine Chu Zhongtian and Alonso without conflict.
Alonso also had a brilliant performance in the ten minutes that he came on as a substitute for Khedira. For example, he once sent the football to the feet of striker Benzema with a long pass, but unfortunately Benzema had just come on the field and seemed to have not adapted to the rhythm of the game and wasted his assist.
At that time, the commentator praised Alonso's form: "Alonso is in excellent form, and now it is Mourinho's turn to have a headache, because he has two commanders who are in excellent form, so who should replace whom?" ”
Yes, the core of both organizations is in excellent condition, which is really annoying.
Alonso's long balls are very precise and his role in midfield is indispensable. The same is true of Chu Zhongtian, he seized the opportunity of Alonso's absence due to injury, and showed his ability to the whole of Spain, although he has not yet scored, but three assists in the league and two assists in the Champions League have already shown his value, and 70 million euros should not be wasted.
But how do you put them together? Make them one plus one greater than two, not one plus one less than two. It's hard.
In fact, in today's football, there are very few teams that engage in dualism. That's because people are not like computers, they are not machines that can simply execute commands, but creatures with thoughts and emotions. In the same situation, two people come to completely different conclusions. When the team is behind, do you want to attack and equalize, or defend first to avoid conceding more goals?
If the two people don't think together, the rest of the team is even more confused. One of the cores has to attack, but the other has to defend, and the strength is not in one place, how can this game be won?
That's why a lot of teams don't do a duo themselves. The Brazilian team used to be high for a while The so-called double core, that is, Ronaldinho and Kaka started together, both of whom were the core, but the Brazilian team did not play very well, and the effect was far less than everyone thought.
Now Mourinho really intends to do a double at Real Madrid.
In order to solve the problem of two cores, so that everyone does not know who to listen to. Mourinho did not engage in two equal status cores.
One must be the main core and one must be the auxiliary. In fact, it is like the engine of an airplane, one is the main engine and the other is the auxiliary engine. Usually the main core plays a leading role, and as soon as he encounters a problem, the second one immediately goes up. The tactics of letting the opponent contain the core of Real Madrid will not succeed.
This is Mourinho's plan.
But who is the centerpiece?
"There's almost no hesitation, if it's me, I'm ...... Clear. Assistant coach Karanka was completely impressed after watching Chu Zhongtian's performance in these games.
"Reason." Mourinho asked.
"Well-rounded, and top notch in every way. Such a person is the core and can cope with almost any scene. I think he reassures me more......" Karanka said. 'He's got his own shots, he's got the assists, he's got a lot of organising, and he's got a lot of talent defensively...... Of course, the most important thing is that he has a very mature mentality, and no matter what problems he encounters, he can calm down. I don't think the most important thing is his mental quality. At this point, I have to give Chu a hundred points. ”
Mourinho nodded: "Since you are so optimistic about him, then let him do this position......"
Karanka smiled. In fact, Mourinho is also clearly optimistic about Chu Zhongtian in his heart...... Chu Zhongtian is the main core, and Alonso is the auxiliary. Is Alonso acceptable to such an arrangement?
Mourinho doesn't care so much, because even if Alonso can't accept it, he has to accept it, otherwise he won't even get a chance to start. You must know that Chu Zhongtian and Khedira also have a very good cooperation, during this time, Real Madrid has won one after another, and they have won very easily, it is Chu Zhongtian and Khedira who are partners.
Mourinho is not afraid of Alonso's temper at the moment. As long as there is Chu Zhongtian, he is not afraid of not having Alonso. Besides, now in the Real Madrid team, it is he who has the final say.
However, Alonso always has to talk to him, after all, it is related to whether he can cooperate sincerely with Chu Zhongtian on the field.
He wants to know Alonso's attitude, and if Alonso can't accept this arrangement, then he will have to be put on the bench to calm down.
Mourinho is well prepared to convince Alonso to accept his advice and assist Chu Zhongtian instead of being the protagonist of the midfield.
But he didn't expect that when he said this request, Alonso agreed very happily.
This came as a surprise to Mourinho.
"What kind of strength Chu is, we all know very well. I watched his game and I think he has what it takes to lead the team. The most important thing is not the position of the individual, but the victory of the team......" Alonso explained.
Jose Mourinho remembered Alonso's anxiety before he didn't play, and thought to himself that he was really a winner...... You can only say such things when you play a game. If he had used Alonso as a substitute, he would have been unacceptable.
Since Alonso doesn't object, the matter is settled.
Real Madrid's players will soon be able to discover this in training. During the training, Mourinho began to communicate with Chu Zhongtian frequently, and the tactics were completely created with Chu Zhongtian as the core.
Although the outside world says that C. Ronaldo is the core of Real Madrid. But that's because everyone has a different understanding of the core. The outside world thinks that whoever scores the most goals, who is the most famous, and who has unlimited scenery is the core. In the Real Madrid team, it is only about who plays the most important role in the tactics and who is involved in the attack the most, and that is the core.
Chu Zhongtian obviously got a preference.
It looks like Alonso is no longer at the heart of the team.
Alonso himself doesn't care, though.
He would love to play the role he is playing now.
Alonso himself doesn't care, so naturally no one will come out for him to trouble Chu Zhongtian. The atmosphere in the locker room is quite harmonious.
Mourinho is adjusting the team's tactics while trying to make Chu Zhongtian adapt. The fight against Barcelona has been going on all season, and although Barcelona is out of the same class as Real Madrid, if you lose one game, you can leave Barcelona behind.
What makes him happy is that Chu Zhongtian is used to being the commander who leads the team at Hoffenheim, so he hardly needs any time to adapt to the role of Real Madrid commander.
Everyone who has cooperated with Chu Zhongtian is full of praise for his ability, and they all like to cooperate with him again. At this point, Kaka has become Chu Zhongtian's best advertising promoter, and he now has a very good relationship with Chu Zhongtian, even better than the friendship with C. Ronaldo.
But everyone in the team knows why Kaka has such a good relationship with Chu Zhongtian. Because no one can solve the problem, let Chu Zhongtian solve it. As long as he appeared on the field at the same time as Chu Zhongtian, Kaka's participation in the game was greatly improved, and his performance in various technical statistics such as passing, shooting, scoring goals and breakthroughs was also very good, and those who watched the game would also think that Kaka had returned to his previous state.
Who doesn't love playing with such an amazing person? He can improve his level, he can only play 50 percent, now he can play 100 percent, he can play 100 percent, now he can play 200 percent. It's even more effective than taking stimulants...... The Real Madrid players have gradually come to appreciate what Hoffenheim coach Rangnick was like when he said proudly after the game, "With Chu on the field, we are equal to having 12 people".
Maybe it's not just to praise Chu Zhongtian's good physical strength, but also to say that he can make the whole team play well, as if they have one more person than their opponents, so they suppressed the other party.
※※※ "Now it seems that the so-called 'devil's schedule' is not a devil for Real Madrid at all. They easily settled Seville and Valencia. Barcelona are not on their own, Real Madrid are following them closely, and if they dare to slack off at all, they will be pulled down by Real Madrid. In fact, Real Madrid had such a good performance last season, or in the past few seasons, they have won 10 in a row, they have been unbeaten in 18 games, and they are unbeaten at home so far...... But there is always a sense of inconsistency, and sometimes they are in good form enough to play Valencia 4-0 at their home stadium, and sometimes they are in poor form and can even lose away to Osasuna...... So it's too early to say that Real Madrid can challenge Barcelona for La Liga supremacy. But I'm looking forward to it now, full of things to look forward to for this Real Madrid team......"
Eduardo, editor-in-chief of the newspaper Marca. Inda wrote in her column.
He is actually a very hardcore supporter of Real Madrid, and because Barcelona came to the Bernabeu to play against Real Madrid, he also called on Real Madrid to do everything possible to stop Messi, even including crime. Later, he also called Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola a fascist.
However, from this article, it can be seen that he is actually suppressing his emotions. Maybe it's because the current situation is too good for him to be a little wary, or maybe it's because the league has just started, so there's no need to rejoice too soon?
But he said what most people were thinking – and this Real Madrid team is more exciting than ever.
Watching Real Madrid's game now, at least I won't be too nervous, no matter whether Real Madrid is behind or leading, it will always make people feel nervous - I am afraid that I can't get it back when I am behind, I am afraid that I will be equalized by the opponent when I am ahead, and I am afraid that I will be reversed by the opponent if I draw...... In short, all kinds of worries.
Real Madrid have not been without problems in these games, but they always seem to be able to solve them.
Whether it is Sevilla or Valencia, the opponent that used to be a headache for Real Madrid fans has now been won by Real Madrid without blood.
And Real Madrid still has room for rotation.
Mourinho is indeed in high rotation, because the current form of Real Madrid's midfield players is too good, but he can't put everyone on the pitch at the same time, right?
So sometimes Kaka, sometimes Di Maria, sometimes Mesut Ozil. Now he is thinking about getting Gareth in his next match against Deportivo La Coruna. Bale started.
Since Bale's arrival, he has only come off the bench and has not started yet. Because Marcelo is in good shape at left-back, and C. Ronaldo is in full swing at left-back, who dares to compete with him for a position? So Bale can only come off the bench occasionally. But the players that Real Madrid bought for 30 million euros are absolutely impossible to be on the bench.
So this forced Mourinho to rotate. Four rounds of the league have been played, and two Champions League group stage games have been played, and Real Madrid has not had a single game with the same starting line-up as the previous one...... In fact, Mourinho doesn't like to rotate, and if he could, he would have played the whole game with just one lineup. Because he thinks it's a great way to develop a team chemistry – you get used to the team-mate, and after a league game you find out you're a new team-mate. It's really annoying.
Of course, in fact, this kind of rotation has the greatest impact on Chu Zhongtian. After all, he is the core of the team, he needs to organize the attack, and he needs to string the whole team. If the people in the team who are working with him are always changing, he will have to start adapting again - that's the perception of the outside world.
In fact, Chu Zhongtian didn't feel that this kind of rotation bothered him, he was the kind of person who was super adaptable, and he had already been prepared, he usually watched his teammates' game videos at home, and studied and analyzed the technical characteristics and playing styles of these people.
So even if he comes with another person, as long as it is a teammate of Real Madrid, he is not afraid.
You know, in the latest version of FM, his adaptability is 20.
※※※ Before the match against Deportivo La Coruna, Mourinho announced the starting line-up. Alonso still did not start, he was still a substitute, and Chu Zhongtian's starting partner was still Khedira. This is because Alonso has only just returned from injury and has to play gradually, little by little.
The striker who started this game was Higuain, and C. Ronaldo, Mesut Ozil and Di Maria formed the line behind Higuain, and behind them were Chu Zhongtian and Khedira. The centre-back duo is Pepe and Carvalho, and left-back Gareth. Gareth Bale, right-back Sergio. Ramos, goalkeeper Casillas.
Kaka was rested after back-to-back starts, as was Marcelo.
At present, Real Madrid has not had any injuries, so they seem to be rich in personnel. But no one knows what will happen in the future, and injuries will definitely find them.
At that point, a bench seat deep enough will be able to play an important role.
And there are two core benefits that even if Chu Zhongtian is injured, Alonso can be on top. The reverse is the same.
And what about these two people being injured at the same time? The odds are too small for Mourinho to consider.
And this game Gareth. Bale is finally starting the game, and what will happen to him is also something that everyone is looking forward to. He has never started since joining Real Madrid, which makes him a little anxious. You must know that he is an absolute workhorse at Tottenham, there is no dispute, as long as he is not injured, he has to play every game. But what about coming to Real Madrid? A rotation player, whether it is Marcelo at left-back or C. Ronaldo on the left, he is not qualified to compete with others.
So starting this game is crucial and important for him.
He has to be like Chu Zhongtian, seize the opportunity to show himself to the manager, to the fans, to the media.
