Chapter 573 The New Battleship Sets Sail

However, this online voting activity is just an unofficial behavior of the keyboard party for self-entertainment, and its influence is almost negligible, so naturally it will not be generally recognized by the public.Moreover, Li Moody is not in the mood to think about other issues now. Just how to control the roster to less than 25 people required by La Liga and the Champions League is enough for him and the coaching staff to have a headache.

It is completely different from when he coached Turin and Arsenal before. Naturally, Real Madrid attaches great importance to their own youth training, so it is easy to meet the registration requirements. It is reasonable to say that it should be a great thing to fill up the first team's roster.

But too many talents can also cause troubles. This sentence sounded a bit embarrassing before, but when you really have the opportunity to become the leader of a top giant like Huang Saren, you can't help but sigh like this, Because only 25 players can be selected from among many excellent players, it is really hard work, and those who have difficulty in choosing will probably have a tendency to self-harm.

Since there are not too many young players under the age of 21 who do not need to register in this year's team, it is necessary to find a good place for the seven extra players in the first team before the first round of La Liga on August 8, otherwise it will be a bit unprofessional, after all Players who cannot be registered cannot be left without the ball for half a year.At the same time, we must try our best to find an ideal next home for them, either by selling or renting. In short, all parties must be satisfied, which is the bearing and demeanor that the head coach of a wealthy team should show.

Therefore, while inspecting the players' status and abilities and rehearsing new tactics through a series of warm-up matches, Li Mudi also had to be distracted from player transfer matters. The pre-season training camp kicked off in mid-July, and then more than a year later. In a few months, he resumed his busy working state in the early days of coaching the Turin team, with few opportunities to rest like a spinning top.

However, such efforts finally paid off in exchange for huge returns. Under the unfavorable conditions of the team’s short initial training time due to the impact of the European Cup, Real Madrid’s lineup has achieved good results. The winning and losing results in the competition are not particularly ideal, but everyone can feel that their mental outlook and competitive state have gradually improved.

Although the Galaxy Battleship failed to qualify for the two "official warm-up matches" of the Spanish Super Cup and the European Super Cup due to the performance problems in various competitions last season, in order to test the true level of the team, Li Mudi started the competition near the start of the season. Before that, AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund were arranged as the team's final warm-up opponents.

As a result, Real Madrid won a game 3-1 and a game 2-0. Even though the participating teams adopted the strategy of half-court main force and half-court substitute, the game process still showed that Spain The strong control of the giants has made most Meilingers have more expectations for the new season.

And with the passage of time and the progress of a game, Li Moody is also constantly reducing the size of the team's lineup. Almost every day or two, there are news about the departure of Real Madrid players from the team, occasionally mixed with some News that new aid may join.

On the morning of August 8th, with the last 17 hours left before the summer transfer window closed, Real Madrid's official website issued the final registration list in the league, confirming that Ndidi, who has been rumored to be transferring, will not be in the league. Landed at the Bernabeu this summer, but the team's lineup can still be described as extremely luxurious, which has attracted the attention of the entire European football world.

In terms of goalkeepers, the 32-year-old Courtois has maintained a very good state and can still be ranked among the top ten goalkeepers in the world today. The strong impact of Lu Ning, who won the starting qualification for more than one-third of the games in the hands of Guti last season, led to fierce competition for this position.

But from a positive point of view, these two world-class goalkeepers have also added a double insurance to Real Madrid's goals. In addition, the third goalkeeper, Kuntra Moya, a local player born in 2001, is the team's youth. He has played many times in Spanish national youth teams at various levels and has a certain potential. Li Moody does not have to worry about any major problems in this position, which is very worry-free.

The right back/wing back is also a double-insurance configuration. Odriozola is the main force of the Spanish national team in this position, and David, who was once brought to Turin by Li Moody, grew up and joined Real Madrid at a high price · Carmona is two years younger than the former, and has been playing a substitute role in the national team and club before, but in fact there is almost no difference in strength.

Fortunately, his former mentor took over the coach of the team, and Carmona finally ushered in the end of his suffering. Under Li Mudi's unique rotation mechanism, these two players can be ranked among the top ten right backs in the world. The playing time in a season will be divided equally, and the physical fitness and state will be guaranteed. This is also a reassuring position.

And such a powerful configuration is reflected in the position of the central defender. The current abilities of the four major central defenders such as Varane, Skriniar, Vallejo, and Mele in the FM system are all above 160. It is one of the teams with the deepest bench in European football, and only Manchester City can stand shoulder to shoulder with it.

The only worrying left-back on the back line also performed well in the warm-up match before the start of the season. New aid Aaron Calicoll integrated into the team with little effort, and his national team's Natural strength will not let everyone feel disappointed.At the same time, the substitute Swiss Lotumba and the team's youth training Alvaro Fernandez also played a stable performance in the limited playing time, so that this position will at least not become a shortcoming of Real Madrid.

It is worth noting that the joining of Aaron also allowed the Galaxy Battleship to successfully copy the Matador's defensive lineup. In the first half of the national team warm-up match, Odriozola, Vallejo, Mele and Aron four Ren once had two opportunities to start together. This rare situation is also believed by the Spanish media that Real Madrid's defensive ability will usher in an explosive period in the new season.

If you just continue to count, people will soon find that the strength of this team is actually more reflected in their midfield lineup, and its luxury can be described as horror.

Among several central midfielders/midfielders, Marcos Llorente, Ceballos and Uruguayan Valverde are all active international players, and Peperu and Fabas are also outstanding players in this position in the country.Although at first glance it looks a bit dim, but in terms of ability and adaptability, it definitely meets the tactical requirements of the team's new coach.In addition to the slight lack of defense, whether it is organizing offense or passing the ball, it is recognized as a powerful faction and must not be underestimated.

As for the team's frontcourt, those names can definitely blind your eyes.

First of all, in the position of the attacking midfielder, Argentine veteran Dybala was rumored to be purged by the team's new coach this summer, but in the end he stayed, which surprised the outside world.But his ability is naturally beyond doubt. Although he is 31 years old, the comprehensive ability of Megatron football in the past still maintains a very high level.The only worrying thing is that Li Moody's current tactics rarely have an attacking midfielder. Fortunately, there are many positions and roles he can play, so he can get more playing time.

Similar to him is the local player Couch, that is, Sal L. This player who was born as a striker was placed more often after joining Castilla because of his technical characteristics and physical conditions. It is used by the shadow front and midfielder.Later, according to the needs of the team, he developed a skill set for the left and right wingers. He can be regarded as a jack-of-all-trades player, and even his technical characteristics are very similar to Dybala. It is still difficult to get too many opportunities.

The two generals at the left wing position are Asensio and Vinicius. The former is the current prince of the Bernabeu, and the latter is synonymous with gorgeous skills. Both are undoubtedly geniuses.Just judging from his appearance, it’s hard to believe that the Brazilian is four and a half years younger. When he first saw him on the training ground, Li Moody really thought it belonged to some player at that moment My father came to visit the class, this good looks, very determined!
As for the right side, in addition to the top five superstar Mbappe in the world today, Spanish international Mikel Aouar, who joined from Real Sociedad for 8500 million euros four years ago and changed to the right winger in response to tactical requirements Sabal's prestige in football is not low, and he is already qualified to win a main position in a wealthy team.It's just that Li Moody strongly rejected the bids of Manchester City and Paris this summer, and promised to give more playing time to keep the 27-year-old star at his peak.

The above four players who mainly play on the two wings can also take into account multiple positions at the same time, so that the head coach can safely choose the starting lineup according to the on-the-spot status or the opponent's tactical characteristics. When necessary, most of them can even top the striker Go, but there is still a special super scorer who is responsible for attacking the team.

The local high center Villalivre and the Brazilian Rodrygo, who quickly became popular all over the world during the season he played for Arsenal, are the most reliable siege weapons of Real Madrid. In the case of constant injuries last season, The two also scored 43 goals together, and they are the top goal killers in the whole of Europe.

The above 25 players are all the players who make up the Galaxy Battleship squad for the 2024-25 season. The total value of this lineup has reached an astonishing 14.7 billion euros, second only to Manchester City in the current world football list. high position.

However, what is even more surprising is that in order to get this team together, Li Moody's net investment this summer turned out to be a negative 100 million yuan, which means that not only did he not spend the nearly 3000 million yuan transfer fee provided by the club , but helped Raul earn more than [-] million, which is really incredible.

Of course, the money was not wasted in the end, and it was all used to renew the players.Moreover, during Guti's coaching period, for the renewal of the team, he almost disposed of big-name stars such as Benzema, Bale and Kroos at the price of cabbage. As a result, Real Madrid's financial situation for many years is not very ideal. Let's fill in some holes before.

However, the strength of the team has no absolute and necessary relationship with the so-called worth, otherwise the game would not have to be replaced, and it would be easiest to judge the winner directly to see who has the money.

Since no drastic changes have been made on the basis of last season's poor performance, the outside world generally has some doubts about the combat effectiveness of this Real Madrid team.And this kind of view has dissipated after seeing their performance in the warm-up match, but when the Galaxy Battleship, which is going to start the new season with a new attitude, almost lost to Maicheng in the first show, and the thrilling away game forced a draw. After returning to the home court in the second round and failing to win, the Spanish media was completely blown away.

It is not that the new coach who took over Real Madrid has encountered a situation where the door was opened, but we do not mention the ancient times when the strength difference between the teams is not too big, just look at the situation after entering the new millennium.

Counting the old coach Bosque who has been in the Bernabeu since the end of 1999, there are almost no coaches who have not tasted the fruits of victory in the first two official games, even Raymond and Carlo, who appeared as transitional coaches in the middle Such an unknown person, as well as Camacho, who has only coached 80 games in 6 days, is no exception.Only the German Schuster, who was in charge of Real Madrid in the 2007-08 season, started with a two-game losing streak, but before that, the former head coach of the Chinese team Bincheng Yifang did not have too dazzling qualifications and reputation , The outside world's expectations for him are not very high, and he quickly led the team to complete a wave of 7 wins and 2 draws, reversing the bad reviews in time.

However, Li Moody took over Real Madrid as the world's number one coach, and his performance requirements naturally increased accordingly. The reference object was automatically set to Mourinho in the 2010-13 season.

Mu Niao's start in the Galaxy Battleship could not have been better. Together with the league, the Champions League and the King's Cup, he has maintained an unbeaten record in the first 15 games he took over the team, with 4 wins and [-] draws. The performance is indeed worthy of this "special one"'s various classic quotations full of force and defiance of everything.

It's hard to be constantly compared by others, especially the one who is regarded as a bad example.It's just that Li Mudi's heart is much bigger than his harmless appearance. Although these two games were to be won according to the original plan, who knew that God was not good, and the first game was opened by the referee at the next scene Only one person was sent off, and he was able to fight with ten people and score an equalizer at the last moment. This performance can no longer be picky.

As for the second draw, it was even more wicked. There were 37 shots in the game, and only 9 shots were on target.What's even more exaggerated is that there were three goalposts, where are you talking about reasoning!

Fortunately, the mentality of the players is still very good. There is no such thing as Li Mudi talking nonsense, and he quickly returned to his normal state.First, they defeated Ajax with two goals at home in the Champions League group stage, and then won a wave of four consecutive victories in the league, and the opponents were all strong players like Valencia, Villarreal and Celta Vigo. The enemy, in one fell swoop, reversed the outside world's pessimistic view of them, and strode towards the fast lane to the final winner.
