Chapter 294 The Powerful "Bat Legion"
“桑切斯·弗洛雷斯教练常用的战术阵型是4-2-3-1，踢法非常平衡！教练组参考瓦伦西亚之前两场热身赛的排兵布阵，弗洛雷斯教练都是沿用他所擅长的4-2-3-1阵型，没有做任何的改动。”

After all, Fernando Santos highlighted a player.

"Fernandez Morente! The high center forward who played for Liverpool in the Premier League last season is an important signing for Valencia in the new season! Valencia introduced this high center forward with full experience in the Premier League mainly to let him To be at the top of the striker, with David Villa cruising behind him, playing the role of a free man in the frontcourt!"

"Oh! As for Valencia's head star David Villa, I won't go into details. I believe everyone is very familiar with it? The hot supernova in the German World Cup has already taken over the No. 7 jersey of the Spanish national team You must know that he is only 23 years old!"

Having said that, Fernando Santos looked at Nuno Gomez: "I have to say that David Villa's playing style under Sanchez Flores is a bit similar to that of Nuno in our team." But I think that David Villa is a rare talent in the striker line, and he should play a 4-4-2 like in the national team led by Bosque, directly partnering with the high center forward."

"In the final analysis, Valencia's frontcourt, whether it is the combination of Vicente and Joaquin flying with both wings on the wing, or the combination of Morente and David Villa in the center, will bring great benefits to our defense. Quite a big threat! Moreover, because Valencia's three offensive lines all have strong offensive capabilities, it is impossible for us to focus on which line to defend!"

"hiss……"

Benfica's main players couldn't help but gasp.

Like Leonardo Bastos on the wing, his face was very serious at this time.

As a full-back player who is good at crossing and organizing ability, he is likely to face Valencia's Spanish international Joaquin.

With his small body, Leonardo Bastos really didn't have much confidence in being able to guard Joaquin.

Therefore, Leonardo Bastos feels that he will probably not be promoted to the starting position in this game-Fernando Santos will most likely let Assis top the left back position to defend Varen Joaquin on the right side of West Asia.

Nelson on the other side is a full-back who is good at defense, but he is relatively calm.

After all, Vicente was not as famous as Joaquin.

Although he is also a member of the Spanish national team, Vicente can only be regarded as a marginal international in the Spanish national team.

Compared with Robert Pires, who was at the "old demon" level yesterday, Vicente's strength will still be slightly weaker, and he will not put too much pressure on the right flank.

Nielsen is still confident that he can stand up to Vicente's words.

As for the middle, Luizon is always a moody person. No one knows how much confidence he can have in Fernandez Morente and David Villa who are staring at Valencia.

On the contrary, David Luiz had a stern expression on his face. He obviously felt the pressure and thought that the challenge he faced in this game would be the most determined since he landed in Europe.

"Look at Valencia's midfield configuration! Valencia's midfield is also full of good players!"

Fernando Santos couldn't help but sigh: "Machena and Albelda. Everyone should know these two members of the Spanish national team. In addition to these two all-around midfielders, Valencia also has Gaspar , David Silva! Everyone should pay attention to this player David Silva. I think this young man is likely to grow into a top passing midfielder in Europe in the future!"

Regarding Fernando Santos' prediction, Diego nodded in agreement, and said plausibly: "David Silva! The future master of midfield pass control! Manchester City's midfield engine! It's terrible!"

David Silva can be described as a super treasure from Valencia's youth training!
Few people know that David Silva’s dream when he was young was to join Real Madrid!

This can be described as a real "Children's Dream"

In 2000, 14-year-old Silva, accompanied by his father and agent, participated in the team entrance test of Real Madrid Football School.

But in the Real Madrid Sports City, Silva left a photo with Anelka, but did not leave his future.

On the day of the test, former Real Madrid star and Real Madrid B team coach Michel also accompanied his son Adrian to participate in the assessment.

After seeing Silva's performance, Michel affirmed Silva's ability.

As a result of the trial training, Adrian successfully passed the test, but the person in charge of the youth training thought that Silva was too short and did not accept Silva.

Not able to join Real Madrid, David Silva was very disappointed, but he did not give up his football career.

Since David Silva was born in the Canary Islands of Spain, he could also choose to join the youth training camp of Las Palmas, the capital of the Canary Islands, but he did not choose Las Palmas in the end. He was brought to Valencia and successfully joined the Valencia youth training camp.

David Silva's career at Valencia has not been smooth.

After finishing the youth training stage, David Silva was not favored by then Valencia coach Ranieri. He was loaned to the Ebar club and played in Ebar for a season.

I thought that after the loan period ended and returned to Valencia, I would be able to enter the team's roster. As a result, David Silva was loaned out again - this time, David Silva was loaned to Valencia. Gosselta.

During his time at Vigo Celta, David Silva became the team's main midfielder - scored 31 goals and 4 assists in 7 appearances for Vigo Celta, and helped the team at the end of the season. Celta Vigo have secured a place in the UEFA Cup!
David Silva's outstanding performance in Celta immediately attracted the attention of many foreign clubs, among which Tottenham Hotspur showed the strongest interest.

In order to keep this promising young star, Valencia quickly offered David Silva a lucrative contract.

David Silva was recalled in the summer of 2006 to replace the "clown" Pablo Aimar who moved to Real Zaragoza, and took over the No. 21 jersey that belonged to Pablo Aimar before.

Obviously, David Silva's performance in Celta Vigo conquered Sanchez Flores.

In the new season, David Silva will become Valencia's main midfielder, but because Valencia's midfield is full of experts, Benfica is not sure whether David Silva will become Valencia's starter. Midfielder - after all, the Portuguese Gaspar has more experience than David Silva.

"As for the Valencia back line, there is a high probability that it is Albiol and Ayala, two national players. Albiol is a member of the Spanish U23 national team. Ayala is a member of the Spanish national team in this World Cup in Germany. One of the members. However, Valencia's defense has a relatively fatal problem..."

Having said this, Fernando Santos finally showed a faint smile and looked at Diego: "Valencia, like most Spanish teams, prefers to use technical central defenders, so! Diego , you can play comfortably again."

"Technical central defender! This is easy to handle."

Diego also showed a knowing smile: "Then our skills and tactics can be very simple and clear-directly go to the frontcourt to find me. The rest, let me take care of it."

"As for Valencia's two full-backs, they are relatively strong defensive players. The Italian Moreno and the Cape Verdean Miguel are both veterans who have played in La Liga for many years. It is not an easy task to get through."

Speaking of which, Fernando Santos very rarely mentioned Valencia's bench lineup-before, Fernando Santos rarely mentioned the opponent's bench lineup.

"The Valencia bench is also full of good players! Coach Sanchez Flores has made too many changes..."

Ok……

Fernando Santos even showed a hint of envy.

After all, there are still too few changes on Benfica's bench.

After all, the effect of signings in the new season is really mediocre. Except for David Luiz and Diego, who are regarded as surprises, the other signings, that is, Francisco Fonseca, are in line with expectations. In the previous warm-up match, it proved that it was useless.

"Valencia have their old captain Angulo up front, Gavilan on the left, Mario Regero in midfield, Jorge Lopez in midfield, David Navarro in the back... these players They all have the strength to start, so it's hard to guess Coach Flores' starting lineup for this game, they almost started with different teams in the previous warm-up match."

"So! Everyone should be able to understand how strong our opponent is in this game, right?!"

"Well……"

After analyzing Valencia's lineup, many Benfica players were relatively silent.

Obviously, they didn't seem to have thought before that Valencia's lineup would be so powerful. Although there are no superstars, every position is full of powerful stars from the five major leagues. Their lineup has almost no loopholes - maybe , Luis Moura at the goalkeeper position is slightly weaker!
However, it is not an easy task to penetrate Valencia's overall defense and advance into Valencia's penalty area to threaten the gate guarded by Luis Moura.

of course!

Everyone in Benfica did not retreat because of this.

Since there is no Champions League to play in the new season, if there is such a Champions League-level opponent during the preparation period, we should have a real fight with them!
This proves that the "Flying Eagles" only missed the UEFA Champions League because of Tiger's nap at the end of last season. The "Flying Eagles" are still a Portuguese super giant with the strength of the Champions League!
