Golden Greenery

The 21-year-old Sergio Busquets is now at best a rotation player in Barcelona's midfield, mainly playing Xavi, Toure, Keita and Xiaobai, and his height of 189cm is simply a betrayal of the La Masia product. Fortunately, his body and brave and tenacious midfield defensive style are still of great use in the European competition.

Busquets is actually a person who plays football with his brain, which is different from the impression left by his burly body on outsiders. In the Champions League final a few months ago, Busquets suffered a lot in front of Zhuoyang, which almost caused him to collapse, but it also made him suddenly enlightened.

Zhuo Yang's height and weight make him completely different from those small attackers in La Liga. It stands to reason that he should not be as flexible and quick as those people. This is indeed the case, but Zhuo Yang is more efficient in offense than the small men in La Liga. . The same is true when defending. In that final, Zhuoyang was not aggressive at all in the midfield, but he always appeared in the right position and suppressed the technical flow of Barcelona's midfielders so that they could not pass the ball.

Since he was born in La Masia, Busquets will not have any problems with small skills. But because of his physical condition and style attributes, Busquets originally thought that he should take the path of a pure defensive midfielder and become Gattuso in La Liga or De Jong in Barcelona. He also did the same in the game, with three consecutive tackles so violent Action is routine.

With Xavi and Xiaobai around, Busquets believes that his efforts in midfield offensive organization are unnecessary and will be annoying. But Zhuoyang allowed him to see another possibility, because Zhuoyang can perfectly coexist with offensive talents such as Pirlo, Ronaldinho, Kaká, and Beckham in the midfield.

Through his own observation and analysis, Busquets found the reason-efficiency! Zhuoyang is very efficient in both offense and defense. He also dribbles but never dribbles blindly. He is very decisive in catching the ball and is even more understated in defense. He rarely uses tackles.

Efficiency is the biggest gap between himself and Zhuoyang. He knows it but doesn't know why. Busquets doesn't know how to improve his efficiency.

Among the Barcelona team that generally talks less (not counting a certain chatterbox), Busquets is also the one who talks the least, so much so that sometimes everyone ignores his existence. There is no tradition of in-depth exchanges of techniques and tactics in the Barcelona team, and Busquets doesn't know who to go to for consultation. His old teammate Zhongya Toure's style in the midfield is vaguely like Zhuo Yang, but he and Busquets I don't even bother to say anything. The relationship between the two is very ordinary, and there is competition for position.

In the Barcelona team, as long as you enter the first team, no one will treat you as a young player anymore, because young players are not uncommon in La Liga and Barcelona, ​​and they are closely related to the tradition of the team here. In La Liga, there is no common humanistic atmosphere in the Bundesliga and Serie A where veterans carefully support young players and team public opinion is very tolerant of young players. When young players enter the first team, they have to face all professional competition and problems on their own.

Otherwise, Ronaldinho's support and protection of Messi would be so precious, and Messi's gratitude to Ronaldinho would be so sincere.

Busquets didn’t understand Zhuo Yang’s character, and he had the impression that he was a thorny person who talked a lot of nonsense, had a big temper, was arrogant and arrogant, but Zhuo Yang’s ‘righteous deed’ in the Champions League final made Busquets know that he owed him.

Although Busquets is young, he does not lack survival IQ at all. He understood that if he was sent off with two yellows and one red that day, according to the urine of the Spanish media, he would definitely become the culprit of the team's defeat, and his teammates would also take the blame. Put it on top of your head. Busquets couldn't imagine what kind of situation that would be like, and he would become a sinner in history.

It is no exaggeration to say that Zhuoyang saved Busquets' football future!

Although he still feels that Zhuoyang is difficult to get along with based on his impression, and Busquets is a man of few words and is not good at expressing himself, but he still feels that Zhuoyang is a little friendly.

After a team training session at the beginning of last month, Busquets plucked up the courage and walked over: "Zhuo Yang, when you are in the midfield... when you are playing in the midfield,

Why is the efficiency so high? "

The question was baffling, but Zhuo Yang understood it, so he smiled and answered nonsense: "Prejudgment."

Absolute nonsense. Prejudgment is something even amateur players know, and it is an essential basic quality for professional players. Idiot coaches talk about this every day. If Zhuo Yang said this to others, it would be perfunctory nonsense, but what key opens what lock? Zhuo Yang understood Busquets' question, and this nonsense became Busquets' enlightenment.

——You are not lacking in skills, awareness, and movement. The only thing you have to do now is to predict. Put prediction first. This is true for both offense and defense. Let the results of prediction determine your next actions.

I know how to predict, but to put such a high priority on prediction requires some expert advice. Busquets is a person who plays football with his brain, and he immediately understood the crux of all the problems: his midfield pattern was too small and too timid.

Therefore, in the next month or so, Busquets began to broaden his horizons from the training ground and the court, making various offensive and defensive predictions through observation like a Go master, and moving forward through practice and exploration.

And through this incident, the relationship between Busquets and Zhuo Yang seems to be good. After the match against Dynamo Kyiv that day, Zhuo Yang organized a party in the name of celebrating Shevchenko's birthday and invited some Barcelona teammates who had been close to him during this time to attend, including Messi, Ibrahimovic, Coffee, Pique, Xavier, Keita, Henry, Jesus, Alves, and Busquets. To be honest, even Messi and other old Barcelona people are surprised that Busquets can come, because he is too low-key and rarely attends various gatherings.

.

David Silva, dribbling the ball from the left to the center, passing and cutting with his teammates while sizing up the movement ahead.

Suddenly, Silva discovered something. He decisively changed his direction and dribbled forward. At the moment when Barcelona's defensive formation in the middle and backcourt was pulled, he pushed hard with his left foot. The football quickly ran towards the big gap in Barcelona's ribs. At the same time, Barcelona Rencia French winger Mathieu flashed on target.

A big foot suddenly appeared midway, and Busquets didn't even use the tackle. He suddenly appeared from behind Toure and intercepted Silva's pass, looking very relaxed. Just from the picture, I feel that this was a passing error by Silva, and Busquets was very lucky.

A battle of wits and courage! Busquets won in anticipation, and he was anticipating Silva's next move from the moment he looked left and right. Busquets has been observing the situation of both sides, observing from a macro perspective of the entire stadium, and is not limited to the small area of ​​​​the midfield as before.

When Silva changed direction and accelerated, Busquets decisively dropped his position according to Mathieu's movement trajectory and headed directly towards the predicted route.

It’s not over yet! Busquets is not only observing his opponents, but also constantly observing and anticipating his own teammates. In the past, even if Busquets intercepted the ball, he would first look up to Xavi and then leave the football to him. But Harvey wasn't here today, and there was no need to worry. After intercepting the ball, Busquets did not waste even 0.01 seconds, and stabbed Iniesta with his toe. Xiaobai's position was the most suitable organization point for Barcelona to initiate a fast break.

Iniesta was even more unambiguous, turning and twisting in one go. The moment he released the ball, Zhuo Yang happened to increase his speed in the frontcourt.
