i want to be king

Chapter 738
Barcelona is very depressed.

After Real Madrid loaned Valdebebas to Bayern Munich, Barcelona couldn't find a suitable training venue.

Atletico Madrid's training ground is worse than Real Madrid's, but better than Getafe and other teams. However, it is located in the northwest suburb of the city, and it is very inconvenient to go back and forth for tens of kilometers.

After several considerations, Barcelona finally chose to fly from Barcelona to Madrid the day before the game.

This is also no way.

Fortunately, the final venue is in Spain, and the distance is not too far.

Mourinho was studying Bayern's tactics with Faria throughout the whole process. The two got together with Barcelona's video analyst and others to discuss some game situations, such as the targeted tactics of both sides.

From Barcelona to Madrid, after arriving at the hotel, the players took a break, and Mourinho and the coaching staff were still studying and discussing.

They have encountered a very troublesome problem that all Bayern opponents will encounter at the same time.

Su Dong!

How can Su Dong be contained?
This should be a world class puzzle.

He is too comprehensive, so comprehensive that he has almost no weaknesses, so that he can use various methods to deal with opponents at any time on the court, but the opponents have no way to effectively defend him.

In last season's Champions League final, two of Barcelona's central defenders were mistreated by Su Dong, especially Pique.

The Barcelona central defender has always been known for his confidence, but after the Champions League final, he cast a shadow on Su Dong, so that Mourinho was very worried, fearing that Pique would not perform well in the game.

"We must learn from the failure of last season's Champions League final, and freeze Su Dong's offense no matter what." Mourinho knows Su Dong's threat better than anyone else.

Because he watched Su Dong gradually grow from a nobody to the world's number one superstar, and even he almost recruited Su Dong several times, but he missed it for various reasons.

But when it came to the game, he knew Su Dong's threat and fear better than anyone else.

"Facts have proved that Pique and Puyol alone can't stop Sudong at all." Faria combined various data from last season's Champions League final to analyze the difficulties facing Sudong.

The contest between Piqué and Puyol and Su Dong was simply horrible.

Barcelona's defeat in the Champions League final last season had a lot to do with the central defender's inability to defend Su Dong.

"Yaya Toure's physical confrontation is very good. He and Pique will flank Sudong, plus Puyol..."

Before the assistant finished speaking, Mourinho waved his hands and shook his head, "Not enough, the three of them can't trap Su Dong."

"That's right." Faria also supports Mourinho's judgment, because in the Champions League final last season, Barcelona did not get cheap from Su Dong. Yaya Toure, Pique and Puyol did not limit Su Dong's attack.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and look at each other.

Freezing Sudong is a world-class problem. If it is easy to solve, then other teams have already solved it.

Just like the German Cup final that just ended, Werder Bremen used two strong high center forwards and two midfielders, but they could only barely block Su Dong.

In that final, Su Dong scored only one goal, but had two assists.

This is the most troublesome part of Su Dong, he is too comprehensive.

He is so comprehensive that he can go to the wing to play as a winger, and he can even play as a low-passing winger or an inverse-footed winger at any time according to the needs of the field. In his base camp center position, Su Dong can play even more.

There is no way for opponents to defend such a player.

Faria looked at the crowd and found that no one had any suggestions, and immediately looked at Mourinho, "Then we can only use the most stupid way."

The most stupid and often the most primitive way is to use the number of people to pile up.

If one can't be kept, there will be two, if two can't be kept, then three, and if three can't be kept, I will continue to add people.

Could it be that Su Dong still has no belly button, and can single-handedly beat the entire Barcelona team?

Mourinho looked solemn, thought for a while and said: "Let Seydu Keita come on, as soon as Su Dong gets the ball, the players around him will wrap him up immediately."

After finishing speaking, Mourinho also specially drew his thoughts on the tactical board, and assuming that Su Dong is in the center, left and right of the frontcourt, what kind of players should Barcelona arrange to double-team him, so as to ensure that Su Dong can be flanked from all directions, front, rear, left, and right, which looks like a Su Dong cage.

It has to be said that from the perspective of the concept, as long as the number of people piles up, the stability of the defense will immediately follow.

But then comes another problem.

Except for the goalkeeper, there are only ten players on the field. In order to restrain Su Dong, Barcelona must deploy heavy troops in the midfield, which will inevitably affect Barcelona's midfield, especially the offense.

Seydu Keita is going up, so who will he take down?
Xavi, Iniesta and Messi, these three players are Barcelona's iron triangle in possession of the ball, and it is impossible to win anyone.

Mourinho and the Barcelona coaching staff are very clear that Barcelona's biggest advantage in facing Bayern is possession of the ball. If they win Iniesta, they will lose possession of the ball. Doesn't this mean that they hand over their weapons to the opponent before the duel?
How can there be such a stupid thing in this world?

Isn't this suicide?
Zlatan Ibrahimovic is also not good, he was brought in by the club at a high price, whether he succeeds or not, these two terms, even if he is having trouble, even if he really wants to leave the team this summer, it will be a matter of the future, and now he is still the most intimidating center forward of Barcelona, ​​​​and a superstar in the world.

Then, the most likely to be taken down the frontcourt is Eto'o.

"Eto'o has complained about our arrangements this season. If we exclude him from the starting lineup in this crucial decisive battle, I'm afraid..." Faria is also a little worried.

Eto'o's character is not a joke. Once he is annoyed, he can really poke a hole in the sky.

Why doesn't Mourinho know?

But after weighing the left and right, he had to do this, because only in this way could he ensure sufficient protection for the line of defense.

"As long as Su Dong can be frozen, it's worth it!" Mourinho made a decisive decision.

Freezing Su Dong, Bayern's offensive firepower will be weakened by at least half, and when Barcelona wins, no one can say anything.

Professional football is like this, as long as you win, then everything is right.

The relationship between Mourinho and Eto'o can be slowly repaired after the Champions League final. However, the Champions League final is imminent, and Mourinho must come up with an effective way to contain Sudong.

"For the left back, let Maxwell go." Mourinho thought of something again.

Faria and others quickly understood that Mourinho meant to let the full-backs actively advance and participate in the attack.

Although Eto'o is not a standard winger, his characteristics make him very threatening on the wing.

If Eto'o is taken down, Barcelona's wing will basically be gone, and the left back can only be actively advanced to participate in the attack.

Abidal's defense is good, but his offense is lacking. On the contrary, Maxwell's offensive ability is not weak. After all, he is a Brazilian player with good footwork and skills.

More importantly, Maxwell is Zlatan Ibrahimovic's best friend. The two have cooperated in Ajax for many years, and they have a very tacit understanding. Let Maxwell start, and the purpose is also to create some surprises and accidents.

As it is on the left, so it is on the right.

The combination of Alves and Messi is also one of the most important offensive methods for Barcelona. The two players cooperate very well. Messi cuts inside and Alves cuts in. This is already a routine for Barcelona.

Originally Maxwell's defense would be problematic, but now that Seydu Keita and Yaya Toure are in the midfield, plus Xavi, I believe the problem will not be big, and they should be able to provide enough protection for the wing.

Even, they were able to block the inside cuts of Robben and Ribery by the way.

"At that time, our three lines will still be kept tight, and the distance should not be too large. Bayern's pass penetration ability is also quite good. If we open a little distance, they may be used by them at any time."

Both Modric and Schweinsteiger have already proven their strength in the Champions League and the national team. They are both world-class midfielders, and Mourinho cannot turn a blind eye to them.

Even, Bayern's ball control ability looks at today's world football, except for a few teams such as Barcelona and Arsenal, who can compete?

That is to say, if he met Barcelona, ​​if he changed to another team, Heynckes might really grab the ball with his opponent.

In Bayern's lineup, Mourinho attaches the most importance to Su Dong.

Although Robben and Ribery are also very good, Robben needs space, and Ribery is thin, which makes them relatively easy to defend on the court.

Only Su Dong, this is the decisive factor in the Bernabeu battle.

If Su Dong plays at a high level, then Barcelona will undoubtedly lose, but conversely, if Su Dong can be successfully frozen, then Barcelona has a high probability of defeating Bayern and winning the Champions League.

At that time, Mourinho will be able to feel proud, slap Cruyff and others hard, let them know how ridiculous his remarks are, and at the same time convince the Barcelona fans!

Therefore, Mourinho is determined to win tomorrow night's battle!

Ha chirp!

When Mourinho and his assistants were intensively studying how to deal with Su Dong, on the private balcony of Bayern's hotel room, Su Dong sneezed heavily for no reason.

"Cold?" Ronnie asked concerned.

He made a special trip to come here today to complain to Su Dong, because he was provoked by Su Dong before, and he thought of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law war at home, so he came here today to ask for the scriptures, and wanted to ask Su Dong, how did he settle it?

But what good idea does Su Dong have for this?

On the contrary, he sneezed for no reason, Su Dong was puzzled.

"It must be Mourinho!" Su Dong locked the suspect.

"Ah?" Ronnie was very surprised. What does this have to do with Mourinho?
"I know this guy too well. He must be talking bad about me behind my back now, or doing some conspiracy. This guy is full of bad things, so he has to be careful!"

Ronnie smiled bitterly, is this true?

Mourinho said that he knew Su Dong very well, and Su Dong said that he knew Mourinho very well...

Oh my God, are you guys on the same page?
