Last season, Barcelona beat Real Madrid twice in the league, a 1-0 and a 3-1, which were not big winning scores, but both defeats were deeply remembered by Real Madrid fans and resented by them.

After today's game, Real Madrid fans were finally able to vent all the depression in their chests and once again have the psychological upper hand on Barcelona supporters.

4-0！

It was so cool to return all the 4 goals conceded to Barcelona in the first battle and defeat the old enemy in the grand battle!

For two days, the pro-Real Madrid Western media were celebrating with a lot of praise, praising Real Madrid's super performance of suppressing their sworn enemies head-on.

Leon also organized a team-wide dinner with Ramos after the big win over Barcelona.

Not only did the players enjoy the victory together, but Leon also asked his teammates to bring their own families with them.

In the end, because there were too many people coming, Li Ang directly chartered a medium-sized restaurant and simply organized a family party.

The effect is naturally very prominent, and more contact with the family members of teammates is very conducive to pulling in the feelings and relationships between each other.

Perhaps the old teammates in the Real Madrid team who have been together for many years do not need to tie up their feelings in this way

But for Bale, he has been to such a house party too few times since joining Real Madrid.

There may not have been a similar opportunity before, but now he can open up more with his teammates and he won't put up any communication barriers.

In the final analysis, the rhetoric of the language barrier is the last excuse to face the media

If you really have a heart, you only need a little initiative on one side, and there is nothing to estrangement between teammates who have been together for two or three years.

At least in Leon's opinion, Bell is still more enthusiastic and talkative, as long as you take the initiative to communicate with him and want to get closer to him.

Anyway, after deliberately chatting a few more words about golf, Li Ang obviously felt that Bell was more enthusiastic about himself in private~

The team's excellent start to the season, with a fresh start to a head-to-head win against their arch-rivals, has kept the atmosphere in the Real Madrid squad in a positive and exciting state.

Even after playing Barcelona, Real Madrid doesn't have much time to rest, so they have to go non-stop to challenge Las Palmas away.

However, every Real Madrid player does not feel the slightest physical fatigue and still has a positive attitude towards the arrival of a new round of competition.

The main players want to continue to start, and the substitutes are more eager to play time and show their skills in the next tight schedule.

According to Ancelotti's past preparation habits, he will still have to send a full main lineup in the next round of the league.

If the main force is easy to use, of course, it must be used all the time, and until the physical strength is exhausted and injured, it must not be replaced.

An Fat's habit of employing people has brought him many titles, but it has also caused his team to collapse in the middle and late stages of the league many times.

For a team like Real Madrid, which has to compete for the championship on three fronts almost every season, An Fat's way of employing people is even more unhealthy.

But as the old saying goes, the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change.

It is most difficult for people to break their habits for many years, and this is certainly the case with An Fat.

Can you say that he is not at all aware of the problems that his habits of use have caused the team to prepare for the mid-to-late season?

He is also clear.

But if you want him to suddenly start a massive rotation of key players in the first half of the league, just like Mourinho in the past few seasons, it is certainly not realistic.

To change an old habit, there must be a process of adaptation.

For Carlo Ancelotti, the near-sacking experience of the summer was a wake-up call, and he was determined to take advantage of the last chance to succeed at Real Madrid.

So he needs to learn, he needs to change.

If there is a big change, he will never be steady enough in his heart, so start with a small change.

That is, the tactical core players in the first team and the more durable main players, who choose less rotation.

But the main players who are more prone to injuries and are not so tactically positioned, he will have to try to give them more time to rest.

So before the start of the sixth round of La Liga between Real Madrid and Las Palmas.

The media and fans who followed the starting lists of the two teams soon discovered that Real Madrid had directly excluded many of the main players from the 18-man squad in this round of the league.

Correspondingly, many of Real Madrid's first-team substitutes have also had a chance to be in the 18-man squad.

After discovering this phenomenon, many Western media lamented that Ancelotti had begun to try to rotate the lineup in the first half of the league.

The Meilingge even thanked God and his old man, and finally made An Fat's slightly stubborn use of people's minds to open up!

For three consecutive seasons, Real Madrid collapsed in the second half of the season, which is really how happy the first half was and how hard it was in the second half.

Real Madrid supporters are also not asking Carlo Ancelotti to learn the essence of squad rotation, and now he has a good start, and with such an attempt, it is much better than in the past.

With more expectations, many die-hard Real Madrid fans have chosen to go to the away stadium to support the team with the expedition.

On the evening of September 24, in the broadcast and analysis of commentators from various countries, Real Madrid's starting eleven lineup for this round of the league was newly released.

Up front, Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo continued to start, while Bale, who was relatively inertiacal, rested at home and started in his place.

In midfield, Casemiro was on the bench for this league game, with Leon starting as a lone midfielder today, while Luka Modric and James Rodriguez played as a double central midfielder.

At the back, Marcelo, Sergio Ramos and Pepe continued to start, while Carvajal, who had suffered a hamstring discomfort in training, was rested this league game and Nacho was on the back at right-back.

The starting goalkeeper is still "the wall" Keylor Navas.

It can be seen that An Fat's rotation strategy is still a little conservative, but in any case, it is better to have a good start than to replace the main forces with injuries.

And today's starting position for James also explains the choice of the Real Madrid coaching staff to some extent.

In the future, it should be difficult for Real Madrid to have a "forward midfielder" in the starting lineup.

Carlo Ancelotti probably won't play the retro tactics of giving a central midfielder with two midfielders in the past.

So James Rodriguez will have to adapt to his new role in the team.

Either become an all-round midfielder in the number eight position, like Luka Modric, who can attack and defend, and the defensive ability can be worse at this stage, but the attitude must be positive.

Either they will be eliminated and leave Real Madrid, there is no third way to choose.

Such a situation is cruel for James, who was still the core of Real Madrid's midfield last season.

But he was lucky, and Ancelotti finally gave him the opportunity to adjust and the right to choose.

In Leon's view, James is not unable to adapt to Real Madrid's new tactical system.

Leon believes James has the quality to make his way out in the number eight position.

The key is whether his mentality can be reversed in time, and whether he can clearly realize that the new positioning and playing style is the key to further integrating into this new era of football.

With the awareness in place and a willingness to change the style of play, then James has a high probability of successfully transforming.

After all, he does not lack technique, passing vision, and organizational talent.

But for a famous star, the most difficult thing to change happens to be his perception of his own positioning.

Leon doesn't mind pulling his new teammate at a critical moment, but whether he can succeed or not depends on Hames' own mentality.

After the start of the day's game, Li Ang did not take over the possession and playmaking rights early as he did in previous rounds.

One is because he dragged down the back to play the back today, the position is very important, if you have too much control of the ball, once you lose the ball, the opponent can face the Real Madrid backline.

The second is because the midfield organization is enough today, Modric and James have been able to ensure the smooth operation of Real Madrid's attacking organization, and if he intervenes again, that goal is really not enough for the three of them.

His new midfield trio with Luka Modric and Casemiro was able to work well together and quickly showed great strength.

It was not because all three of them relied on their individual strength to forcibly suppress their opponents, but because they ran in with each other and sacrificed each other, and finally established a reasonable division of duties and powers in the midfield.

If someone wants to organize more with the ball, it is inevitable that someone will have to run more and respond more, and retreat more to defend.

The division of labor is clear and reasonable, so as to achieve the effect of 1+1+1>3, otherwise if you just stack superstars, you are all grabbing the ball to play, and the whole team will be finished soon.

So Leon chose to let go of the ball at the moment and fully trust his midfield partners.

What seemed normal to him was completely different in the eyes of the fans, journalists, and even his teammates on the field.

Once again, James has mixed feelings.

He really didn't expect Li Ang to be so open-minded, the coaching staff asked him to play in the back, he really played in the back waist honestly, and the right to organize and possess the ball was just let go, without a little hesitation!

If it were him standing in Leon's position, would he be able to do that?

Hames asked himself, and the answer he finally got from the bottom of his heart made him purse his lips.

He can't do it!

For the first time, Hames truly realized where the huge gap between himself and Leon was manifest.

He can be regarded as really convinced by Leon!

It's not because of Leon's top-notch performance on the field, but Leon's bearing.

He was truly impressed by Leon's bearing.

And after "admitting defeat", Hames did not have too much frustration in his heart, on the contrary, he suddenly felt a burst of relief and relaxation.

"It's as strong as Leon can put down his posture and play at the back, I haven't even won a Champions League trophy now, where does I get so much pride to insist on not defending and sacrificing tactical position?"

When many things can't be thought through, it is like a wall at the end of the thought, making people uncomfortable.

But once they figure it out, people will give up hitting the south wall, change their minds, calmly bypass the wall and continue to make great strides.

Hames is now in the midst of such a shift in thinking.

Because Leon was right next to him, he gave him a good demonstration right in front of his eyes.

So little by little, he threw away the shackles of thought that had bound him before.

It's not very adaptable yet, but he's already learning and trying to contribute as much as he can on both offensive and defensive ends!

Whatever area Modric defends to, he follows back to the same area.

It doesn't matter if he is passed by his opponent, delay the opponent's attack as much as possible, and his teammates will help him solve the rest of the puzzle.

Even if it's a little embarrassing, it doesn't seem to be full of "star fan" all the time, but so what?

After Hames managed to stop an offensive push from his opponent, he felt a different kind of satisfaction and excitement in his heart.

Li Anghao, who was not far from him, did not hesitate to encourage and praise him, patted him on the back of the head and praised him for a good job!

A fiery and long-lost fighting spirit filled Hames's heart at that moment.

But he didn't become overly passionate on the court, his eyes were calm, and there was a glint of observation in them.

In the 21st minute of the first half, Hames, who once again retreated to help the defense, received a direct pass sent by Leon after a steal.

He didn't have the usual strong desire to send a direct shot to help his team-mate face the goal.

Perhaps because of the fact that he put more energy into the defensive end of the game today, James was able to easily switch to the perspective of a defensive midfielder.

If he is a defensive midfielder in Las Palmas at the moment, is he most afraid of the opposition's adventurous through ball?

No... As a defensive player whose strength is not too prominent, he should be more afraid of the opponent's multiple forward containment points and smooth balls!

James, who had successfully switched his mindset, quickly made his own passing choice - a calm and timely lateral split!

Las Palmas defender, who was originally pressing and guarding him, made a direct save, and Modric, who was in front, once again smoothly distributed the ball to Marcelo on the side!

Real Madrid's quick counterattack played quite smoothly, and countless fans in front of the TV were also fascinated at the moment.

And with the combination of mercury-like passes, it took almost only three or four seconds for Real Madrid to hit the ball from their own half into the defensive hinterland of Las Palmas!

Marcelo didn't wait until he got down to the bottom to send a cross this time, but when he was close to the edge of the Las Palmas penalty area, he suddenly sent a powerful inverted triangle cross close to the ground!

The ball quickly rolls towards the middle of the turf.

And at this moment, the defenders of Las Palmas were horrified to discover:

The forward speed was not fast before, but at this moment, Li Ang, who happened to catch up with the rolling trajectory of the football, had already entered his shooting range!

Who would dare to let Leon shoot easily from a distance?!

In recent years, Li Ang's reputation for heavy artillery has long spread all over the world football!

Las Palmas' defenders were not so bold.

All of a sudden, almost three of Las Palmas' midfielders rushed straight to Leon!

Seeing this, Li Ang was not in a hurry, he did not shoot directly, but instead took the ball to the left side of the midfield first.

This move led to the tilt of the entire back line of Las Palmas!

In the next moment, Leon chose to divide the ball again and knocked the football to James Rodriguez, who was waiting outside the right edge of the Las Palmas penalty area!

The biggest advantage of Leon in organizing an attack is that he will always remember the most comfortable offensive areas and starting positions for his teammates.

Bale didn't start today, and Isco, who replaced him, had excellent technique on both feet.

But in comparison, the lethality of James with the "golden left foot" in the right area of the penalty area is even more terrifying!

After all, this is a man who has subdued a World Cup fan with his left foot!

Leon cast an expectant look.

And under his gaze, James also confidently swung his left leg, and then hit a wonderful kick without stopping!

The shot from the edge of the box finally got into the top left corner of the Las Palmas goal!

James excitedly slapped the Real Madrid emblem on his chest, which was not only his first goal of the season, but also a "new life" for him in the Real Madrid team!

In the excited cheers of thousands of Real Madrid diehard fans at the scene, Hames opened his arms, and then ran towards Leon excitedly!

He didn't say anything, but Leon understood what he meant.

He was thanking himself for the trust he had placed in him!

Leon also gave Hames a big hug in return:

Of course I'll trust you, Hames, because we're teammates side by side!
