Starting with Real Madrid

Compared with the former Real Madrid's old sports city, the hardware facilities of Valdebebas can be called the world's top.

Not to mention anything else, as far as this conference room is provided for the players of the first team, there are all kinds of advanced equipment, which is rare in major European clubs.

At this moment, Real Madrid's players are sitting in this spacious and bright conference room, waiting for the arrival of the head coach.

Although they are looking for a seat to sit down, the general situation of the locker room can be seen from the player's seat selection.

The local team headed by Raul and Guti sits in the front. Some foreign players such as Zidane and Beckham are in the front and some are in the back. Brazilian players such as Ronaldo and Carlos are all in the front. Sitting in the last row, the sitting posture was also very casual, as if this meeting had nothing to do with them.

In fact, everyone in the locker room knew that this meeting had nothing to do with the Brazilian gang.

The relationship between the acting head coach Gao Shen and them has not eased, so how could he arrange for them to play?

Just the day before yesterday, the chief assistant coach Maqueda had a conversation with Ronaldo and Carlos, and conveyed some thoughts from the head coach. The game against Arsenal is very important, and the public opinion outside is also very concerned about the interior of Real Madrid, so he hopes that the Brazilian players , especially Ronaldo and Carlos, were able to remain silent in the media during this time.

Everyone knows that these two people have always wanted to put pressure on the head coach, and now there is a lot of demand for Ronaldo and Carlos to play the main force. If the two people come forward at this time and say something in the media, then the acting head coach's The situation will be more passive.

After Maqueda finished speaking, Raul also conveyed his opinion through Zidane and Beckham. He also hoped that the Brazilian team would focus on the overall situation before the decisive battle and not cause trouble for the team at critical moments.

Zidane and Beckham also shared similar opinions.

So, these two days, the public opinion outside is very big, but Ronaldo and Carlos and the Brazilian players are very low-key.

Of course, they are not timid, and of course they want to make a scene and fight for a main position, but they have to think about it. If they really tear their faces, they will be completely isolated in the locker room.

So, they can only bear it.

And because of this, when they held a meeting, they protested silently in this way.

If it wasn't for the training session in the afternoon, they would definitely be absent.

…

Gao Shen walked in with a thick notebook.

Glancing at the people in front of him, he smiled slightly and held up a USB flash drive in his right hand, "I just got some materials from the scouting team, it's a bit late, I'm sorry."

Everyone didn't care.

Actually, strictly speaking, Gao Shen was not late, but they were a little early.

While his assistant Lucas was fiddling with the multimedia system, Gao Shen faced the Real Madrid players.

"Now there are a lot of media and fans gathered at the gate, which is what I don't like very much."

Gao Shen spoke casually as if he was chatting about everyday things.

"We all know that the British media are pervasive, but they are actually more concerned about the private life of the players. The most outrageous situation is that they will install cameras directly at the door of the players and monitor them 24 hours a day, so many people It is said that the British media always elevate the player to an unreasonable height, and then do everything possible to destroy him."

Even Beckham and Woodgate from England agreed with Gao Shen's words.

This is the consensus in English football.

"Our situation at Real Madrid is different. Since the beginning of the two thousand years, our club's business philosophy has been completely different from other clubs. From the management level, the introduction of a formal company system is very good, and everyone can feel this on weekdays. benefits and efficiency.”

This is indeed Florentino's contribution, a very big contribution, and fans generally don't know.

"But the club's business strategy has led to the fact that we have to be exposed to the spotlight of the media all the time, and even they are holding a magnifying glass and digging out our secrets bit by bit. In front of them, we seem to be stripped naked. Like, there is no privacy, not only for individuals, but also for locker rooms."

How did the secret of Goody and Ronaldo's fight leaked out?

Ronaldo called Florentino to force the palace, how did it leak?

The local gang and the Brazilian gang were fighting in the locker room. Who revealed it?

Many people will think that there is an inner ghost.

Who is the inner ghost?

Employee? coach? player?

One? two? or more?

This is the philosophy of Real Madrid.

Florentino's business philosophy is the eyeball economy, trying every means to attract the world's attention. This needs to be achieved through the media, including the operation and introduction of superstars, all for this purpose.

The benefits of this are obvious. Real Madrid quickly turned losses into profits in a very short period of time and became the most profitable giants team in the world. Word.

Every word that Gao Shen said now is likely to be known to the media in a few minutes, and everyone present, even everyone in Valdebebas, may be a leaker.

In a previous life, Mourinho said he wanted to dig a ghost, how to dig?

Does the Real Madrid management know?

knowledge.

But since they chose this path, they have to bear such a price, so instead of thinking about protecting the players, they are adding fuel to the flames, which makes the players not only have no secrets, but also a lot of pressure.

As long as a game is not played well, the media will attack immediately, and even poor performance in training will immediately become the focus of public opinion.

Let me ask, under such abnormal pressure, who can play well?

Everyone present, from Raul, Ronaldo, Zidane to Beckham, and even the young players in the youth training, all benefited from the club's business philosophy, but at the same time they were all victims.

Because of this, they were very sympathetic to Gao Shen's complaint, and even recognized it from the bottom of their hearts.

"Okay, let's have a meeting next."

After seeing that Lucas had completed the multimedia system, Gao Shen was enough.

…

The focus of this meeting was to discuss tactics against Arsenal.

Gao Shen obtained information from Real Madrid's scouting team and analyzed it, and came up with a more reliable result, that is, Wenger probably won't adopt the 442 tactic, that is to say, the Gunners do not intend to attack Real Madrid.

What he wants is a balance of offense and defense.

"He knew we were going to attack, but he had confidence in his defense, so he didn't plan to defend, but wanted to hold our attack and then use their counterattack to break our goal."

"As long as he scores another goal, we'll be finished!"

The meeting room was silent, but after hearing the profound words, many people nodded in unison.

0-1 at home is already so difficult to play. If you score another goal for Arsenal, Real Madrid will simply surrender.

"So I boldly guess that he will adopt the four-two-three-one tactics. This is the starting lineup deduced by me and the coaching staff."

Arsenal's tactical positioning map appeared on the big screen behind him. Four two three one, goalkeeper Lehmann, and the back line were Flamini, Senderos, Kolo Toure and Eboue. This is Arsenal. The most stable back line.

The double midfielders are Gilberto Silva and Cesc Fabregas, the front three players are Reyes, Hleb and Ljungberg, and the single forward is Henry.

This is a highly speculated lineup, but it does not rule out the possibility of replacing Reyes with Adebayor.

Ljungberg played very well in the derby at the weekend, Wenger would never let him come off the bench, because it would discourage the players, and in the derby, Ljungberg played as a left midfielder, as for Helle Cloth, who is also a player Wenger has high hopes for this season, has always been a side player, but during his time in the Bundesliga, he played as an attacking midfielder.

So now, it is not clear to Gao Shen what position Ljungberg and Hleb will take.

But Reyes should play on the left.

"We all know that Arsenal's organization will start from the point of Cesc Fabregas, so we need Zidane to suppress the point of Cesc Fabregas, but also to contain Gilberto Silva, which requires a lot of Active running."

"Henry and Reyes are both good at cruising on the left, so when we don't have the ball, I need Beckham to drop back from the right to the right back in time to form a three-back defense. mechanisms to protect our lines of defense.”

"Abeloa can go out with Henry, Ramos can share the pressure on the right in time, and De La Reid needs to be able to return to the center back and make up for the defense in the center."

Through PPT, Gao Shen kept demonstrating his defensive gist on how to freeze Arsenal's left-sided offense, especially the cooperation and movement of the players.

With the ball, it is 4231. Without the ball, it is necessary to be able to quickly cut back to 4312. This point of Beckham is very important, because if he does not come back, once there is a problem with the defense on the right, Delray will not be able to do so. When Germany needs to return to the back line to fill up, there is a neutral position at the front of the penalty area.

In this afternoon's targeted training session, Gao Shen asked the coaching staff to arrange group tactical training, in which the defense line that was about to start, as well as the players such as the double midfielder and Beckham were put together, and the key training team was in the The movement and coordination when defending, and at the same time arranging players to play Arsenal's left-sided attacking role.

It can be said that as long as Arsenal's left attack is defended, it is very likely to prevent Arsenal from scoring.

In addition to the key defense on the right, other defense areas of Gao Shen also have targeted arrangements.

As for the most common concern of the outside world, what tactics will Real Madrid adopt in this game, Gao Shen also gave all players a thorough understanding of this game.

"We are in a very embarrassing situation now. If we want to advance, we can only attack, but Arsenal and the world know that we will attack. The Gunners have already laid a trap in Highbury, just waiting for us to step in."

"If we rely on defense and wait for Arsenal to make mistakes, this tactic is too conservative and passive. Arsenal probably won't give us such a chance easily. We seem to have a choice, but in fact, we don't have a choice. "

"So, we must not let Arsenal lead by the nose in this game, we must control the rhythm!"

Everyone present realized that Gao Shen had already made a decision.

This is bound to be a tough decision with unpredictable outcome.
