Football’s First Defender
Chapter 749 Competing for posts
How to determine his starting lineup is a very difficult question for Zidane.
As an assistant coach, Zidane has experienced the defeat of the Ancelotti era before, which also made Zidane fully understand the strength of the team's lineup. They can be inserted into the tactics and make appropriate rotations. Only in this way, in the long season, they will not be limited by player injuries or physical problems, which will cause trouble for the team's performance.
In the season after Real Madrid just won the ten championships, you must know that in the game, Ancelotti sent a combination of pure offensive players in the midfield and the frontcourt. While winning 22 consecutive victories, they scored 80 goals and conceded 10 goals. of terrorism.
During the 22-game winning streak, there were many classic battles including a 5-0 bloodbath against La Liga's touchstone Athletic Bilbao, an 8-2 away bloodbath against Deportivo Deportivo, a 3-1 victory over Barcelona, and a double win over Liverpool in the Champions League.
That Real Madrid team, with its excellent offensive power and strong oppressive force, made people feel as if Real Madrid was invincible that season, no one could stop them, and they had every chance to defend the Champions League.
However, the result is known to everyone. Real Madrid won 22 consecutive victories, but in the end they lost all four.
There is only one Club World Cup winner for consolation.
The reason is that Ancelotti's tactical arrangement is indeed shrewd, maximizing the combat effectiveness of Real Madrid's stars.
However, a football game is not a FIFA game played on a computer, and even in the game, the status of players can be divided into good and bad.
Therefore, in the long season, the biggest problem that Real Madrid encountered after 22 consecutive victories was the injury of the players and the status of the players.
Especially the offensive and defensive core of the midfield, Modric, one of the team's dual-core engines, suffered injury problems, which caused a devastating blow to Real Madrid at the time.
Modric and Kroos were the absolute core of Real Madrid's midfielder at the time. Their arrangement of the possession of the ball, as the two outlets, made it impossible for all opponents to target.
It can maximize the personal strength of the frontcourt strikers.
But after Modric was injured, no one on the Real Madrid bench could stand up and complete Modric's role on the court.
In addition to other players, under half a season of high-intensity athletic ability, they all have a lot of physical energy consumption.
Therefore, due to injury factors and game state factors, Real Madrid fell into a downturn immediately after the 22-game winning streak was ended, and gave up all the advantages in the middle and early stages of the season.
The Real Madrid team led by Ancelotti cannot but be said to be not strong, and even in terms of pure peak team strength, it may be the strongest Real Madrid in recent years.
However, peak strength requires every player to perform extremely well, but as long as one link goes wrong, the entire tactical system will collapse.
The big four that season were all empty, and Ancelotti was obsessed with tactics and was directly fired by Real Madrid.
And with the internal turmoil in Real Madrid last season, Benitez, a tactical theorist, was swept out. Zidane, as a meritorious player of Real Madrid and a historical superstar of European football, directly took charge of the coach of Real Madrid, without mentioning the theoretical level. , at least in terms of the prestige of the team, it is much stronger than others.
This is the benefit of being a coach after retiring as a star.
At least in terms of the prestige of the locker room, Zidane can overwhelm many factions of players in the Real Madrid locker room, which is enough.
Sometimes, for a galactic battleship like Real Madrid, if it is said that a strong duel still requires tactical support, then most of the abuse in the league only needs to be crushed by the strength of the players.
It's just that the players need to be able to show the attitude of the game in the game, and just give their best in the game.
In this regard, Benitez has lost control of the team after the obvious failure of tactical reform last season. Many factions within Real Madrid forced the "Lafayette" to force Benitez to "act" to step down.
After Zidane became the head coach, regardless of tactics, at least he can integrate the team and let the players work together.
A famous player as the head coach will not receive too much pressure from the fans, and will not be brainlessly criticized by the fans for his tactical arrangements and personnel selection.
In front of Zidane, what Zidane said has prestige and can be recognized by the players, this is the most important thing.
Last season, it was Zidane who integrated Real Madrid into a whole to help Real Madrid win the Champions League again in the hopeless late stage of the league, so that the number of Champions League champions increased again, and achieved the achievement of 2 championships in 3 years .
Of course, this year, Zidane's tactical arrangements and locker room management capabilities have been improved to a higher level.
Last season, on the offensive end, in fact, due to player injuries and some young players who recognized their starting positions, Zidane could display his prestige, and at least there were not so many players in the lineup. question.
But this season, with Morata returning from Juventus, playing the main force at Juventus, whether Morata, who has become a world-class striker, will be willing to play as a substitute for Benzema is a question in itself.
And the arrival of Yang Feng on the back line caused a big problem in the back line.
Originally, in the Ancelotti era, Varane, Ramos and Pepe, three world-class central defenders, wanted to compete for the starting position.
Finally, because of Pepe's increasing age, the starting duo was determined, and Yang Feng came to join the competition. Now Real Madrid has 4 world-class central defenders competing, and 3 of them are at their peak. For Zidane, how Persuading others to be willing to be a substitute is also a technical job.
Of course, for Yang Feng's arrival, Zidane himself still tacitly made Yang Feng the starter.
There is no other reason, because Yang Feng's ability to defend the opponent's counterattack is recognized as the number one in world football.
Real Madrid, which attaches great importance to offense, has always been in the game and has to bear the threat of the opponent's counterattack.
It feels that no matter who the opponent is, Real Madrid will be threatened by the opponent's counterattack when the offense is high.
In previous games, Real Madrid fans watched the game and took all kinds of quick-acting remedies, but now with Yang Feng who is good at defensive counterattacks, and a goalkeeper who often hangs on the goal line, Real Madrid's defense may be even better. Facing the counterattack of the opponent, it can have better defensive efficiency.
Yang Feng's starting position was determined by Zidane, but Zidane is not going to directly confirm his starting position, which will only make other central defenders dissatisfied.
Zidane is going to let everyone see Yang Feng's strength in the pre-season training, and let Yang Feng compete for the post, and use his performance to undisputedly win a starting seat.
If Yang Feng's worth is really inflated, then Zidane can also withstand the pressure and put Yang Feng on the bench, it is not impossible.
