After arriving at Real Madrid, Gao Jun's attacking ability was soon further tested, although the first season took a little time to run in with his teammates, and it was inevitable that he missed some games due to national team games, but his total number of goals in La Liga still reached 45, which is a big step above the all-time record, so that he did not pay attention to the widely controversial phrase "It's easy to score goals in La Liga" for a while

However, this season Real Madrid have not been able to replicate the feat of Inter Milan last season, for the simple reason that there is a problem at the back. Although the attack power of this Real Madrid team has been recognized as the strongest in history, the tightness of the back line is far less than that of the big country that fully interprets the definition of "concrete defense line", coupled with the fact that Mourinho came to Real Madrid in order to cater to the arrogant Real Madrid fans, he was forced to make certain corrections to his football style, and his most proud defensive system has become no longer so tight, as a result, although there are many goals in front of him, there are many goals conceded at the back, and he can still use offense instead of defense when bullying weak teams. It's not as safe when you're playing a strong team. In addition, this season's Barcelona sold Ibrahimovic, who could not integrate into the system, and then bought a number of strong reinforcements including Cesc Fabregas who could integrate into the Barcelona system, and Messi has become more and more mature this season, and his strength has completely climbed to the top, posing a great challenge to the Real Madrid team.

Although they won the La Liga title in their first season by relying on the advantage of being more efficient at scoring points against weak teams, Real Madrid failed to have the last laugh in the more variable Champions League and the Spanish Copa del Rey, which put a lot of pressure on coach Jose Mourinho. Fortunately, the chairman Florentino still has a lot of trust in him, and he has bought a lot of strong reinforcements in the new season, including Ozil, a striker that Florentino himself does not like, and also purged some players who have a bad relationship with Mourinho or have no place in his tactical system. However, Lafayette's generosity was not done in vain. The goal of the Real Madrid team for the new season is very clear: "I bought you the best player, and you are going to win all the titles for me!" ”

Gao Jun's first season at Real Madrid did not help the team to achieve a radical change, but his own personal achievements have reached new heights. This season, he finally won the European Ballon d'Or that he should have started earlier, and was once again named World Footballer of the Year. It completely replicates Ronaldo's feat in the previous season, but is even better in terms of the number of games. In addition, Gao Jun's total number of goals in the Chinese national team's international A-level matches has also increased to 105 goals, ranking second in the history of world football after Iran's legendary star Ali Daei's 109 national team goals (the number of goals scored by the Asian national team is relatively easy to brush, but Ali Daei's 149 appearances in the national team's A-level matches are still quite impressive. And it took him only 64 games to accomplish such a feat, less than half of Alidaei's 149 games. At this time, even those die-hard "Gao Hei" have to admit that Gao Jun is now the undisputed number one star in the world. And this undoubtedly makes Chinese fans have greater expectations for the upcoming 2010 World Cup

And today's Chinese national men's football team can indeed be said to be strong, even if there is no Gao Jun, the strength of the current Chinese national team is far from comparable to the same period in history, especially on the offensive line. After another season of tempering, Xie Wenjun is now an indispensable attacking core of the Arsenal team, although there is still a little gap compared with Henry at his peak, he is already a top striker in the Premier League who can rank in the top five, and whether it is a center forward or a winger. He's able to play well. If it weren't for the unexpected loss of Cesc Fabregas, a key player with a special place in the tactical system, before the start of last season, and the departure of several other main or semi-main players such as Robin van Persie. They should have had a good chance of winning the Premier League, even if Manchester United is stronger than ever because Ronaldo didn't go to Real Madrid

Although Xie Wenjun is now enough to take on the role, the main center of the national football team is still playing in the Dresden Dynamo team, but the current Dresden Dynamo team is no longer the embarrassing situation of a year ago

Thanks to the well-established chemistry at the back and the maturation of several young players, the Dynamo Dresden have been much more solid at the back than in the previous season, and the midfield has been more successful. As a result, the team's results rebounded dramatically. Although the German Cup unexpectedly ended in the semi-finals and the UEFA Cup did not go far, the team won the German League Cup for the first time, and won the first Bundesliga runners-up and a second chance to participate in the Champions League. Such a result left the Western media who thought that the Dynamo Dresden team would never come out again once they began to slide. And the "hope of eastern football" has also been completely sublimated into "the banner and glory of eastern football"

Among the players of the Dynamo Dresden team, the biggest contributor this season is none other than the striker Mesut Ozil, who finally got rid of the "2007/2008 season is to hug Gao Jun's thighs and brush the number of jΓΉ, and Gao Jun will not be able to do it as soon as he leaves." and knocked on the door of the Spanish giants Real Madrid, becoming recognized as the world's top striker. And Polish teenager Lewandowski also made a splash in the past season, contributing 39 goals all season, ranking first in the team, thus replacing Golin as the new attacking core of the Dresden Dynamo team.

Although his status in the club has declined, his performance in this season is still stable and excellent, and the change of identity from the main attack to the secondary attack is actually more beneficial to his performance in the national team, because even he himself knows very well that although he plays as a center forward in the national football team, his main role is to contain and cover the role, not to mention Gao Jun, even the younger junior brother Xie Wenjun and even the younger martial arts king have a more priority than him to fire

However, Su Lin did not feel aggrieved because of this, but was deeply gratified by the strength of the national football team today, and it was precisely because of his broad mind that he achieved the national team attack group that is among the best in the history of world football - the "Four Youths of the East"

It is difficult to achieve a balance between attack and defense in the three-forward formation with a forward midfield, but only in this way can the talented Chinese team waste resources in the frontcourt. Now even the weakest martial arts king in the four-man group has played in the Arsenal team (although it is only a substitute for the time being), which is enough to show how strong this combination is, and if you count the system and tacit understanding of the four people who are all from Chongming Academy, I am afraid that even in the upcoming World Cup in South Africa, it will be difficult to find a stronger front-court configuration

Although the current head coach of the national football team, Stano is more good at defensive counterattacks, but he is not bad at "watching the food and eating", since the front court has decided to use "three forwards + forwards", the formation of the national team can only choose 433. In the two main midfield positions, there is no doubt about one choice, that is, Yang Hao, who is now sitting in the main position of the Dresden Dynamo team, and the other candidate, Stano chose Yu Hai, who can be qualified for all positions except goalkeeper and is used as a "universal patch" in the Arsenal team

The football match at the Beijing Olympics has proven that the most suitable position for Yu Hai is a free man, but there is no free man in Stano's tactical system, so Yu Hai's position on the field can only be chosen between the four positions he is relatively good at: left winger, left midfielder, left back and midfielder. There is already a better choice for the left winger, and there is no left midfielder in the 433 formation, so Yu Hai can only choose between the two positions of left back and midfielder.

In these two positions, the competition with Yu Hai is the good friend Rong Hao and the junior brother Cai Huikang who is still playing in the Oriental team, and whether it is considering the special tacit understanding between Yu Hai and Rong Hao, or the strength comparison between Rong Hao and Cai Huikang, the little fat man in the past and the big fat man today are completely uncompetitive. Therefore, the starting choice of the midfielder double back and even left-back did not bother Stano for long, and the right-back position was due to Sun Jihai having lost the physical ability to play full-back after that major injury, and there was no doubt that Zhang Linpeng was left as the only option. What really gave Stano a bit of a headache were the remaining three positions

Although Zhao Ming pressed the big brother Du Wei on the bench in the internal competition of the Shanghai Oriental team at the beginning, in Stano's view, this is mainly because the Shanghai Oriental team's playing style of controlling the ball has a special demand for central defenders, and at the same time, there is also a type similar to Du Wei but a stronger foreign aid Caballero in the team.

Although Du Wei has a bad sense of position and a slow turn, his air dominance has always been the strongest in the Chinese team's backline, as long as the Chinese team recycles the defense to avoid Du Wei's weaknesses, he can show a level close to Asia's first-class central defender. In the World Cup games, which often encounter the world's strongest teams, even if the Chinese team adopts the 433 formation, they do not dare to press the overall formation forward, so Du Wei has been unexpectedly valued in Stano's national team. Stano's trust and reuse greatly encouraged Du Wei, and he even played very hard in the warm-up matches of the national team, and Stano praised him for this (to be continued......
