Iron Man on the pitch

Amid the media's criticism, Real Madrid took action during the winter break.

On January 22, Real Madrid announced the signing of Benfica centre-back David Luis, with a transfer fee of 28 million euros.

In the original timeline, because Mourinho took Ricciardo Carvalho away from Chelsea, coupled with internal injuries, Chelsea introduced David Luis in the winter window. But now Ricardo Carvalho is still staying well at Chelsea, so they naturally have no idea of ​​introducing a central defender.

On Real Madrid, there are only four players in the central defender position. Pepe and Ramos are the main players who cannot be beaten. As long as they are not injured, they can ensure that Real Madrid's defense is worry-free.

But the substitute center back is a little thin, Albiol is capable enough, but his minor injuries are restricted, limiting his growth; another Argentine center back Galai was abandoned by Mourinho, and he also decided to end the season leave.

Now there are no enough personnel on the back line of Real Madrid, with only three central defenders left. If anyone is injured, it will seriously affect the team's deployment. What's more, the tactics of pressing the whole game and high-level pressure are consumed a lot on the players, and multiple rotations are required to ensure the health of the players.

Mourinho feels that the newly promoted Nacho is still too young. Although he has good potential, he cannot take the lead at critical moments. The team still needs a nearly successful central defender to supplement it.

There are not many players to choose from on the market. The winter break is different from the summer window, and many teams are not willing to let go. Only teams with poor performance in the first half of the season may sell key players on the team.

Mourinho's eyes were fixed on Werder Bremen's Mertesac and Benfica's David Luis. In the end, David Luis was finalized by Florentino because he was younger and more adaptable to La Liga. .

As for transfer funds, with a series of big wins in the first half of the season as the basis, Real Madrid has attracted a lot of sponsorships under the operation of Florentino.

What surprised Florentino even more was that Li Ling's influence among Chinese and yellow people in East Asia and even the world is terrifying.

As the world's number one sport, Asians, especially the East Asian yellow race group, have always been absent.

Although South Korea also won the fourth place in 2002, no one can appreciate this score outside because of the black whistle, let alone no Korean players playing football in Europe have received top-level evaluations.

Although Park Ji-sung plays for Manchester United, his positioning is only an ordinary player, so how can he compare with Li Ling's top 5 Golden Ball Awards? (At this time, Son Heung-min just went to Hamburg in the Bundesliga and his appearance has not yet stabilized)

Not to mention Japan, the best star Honda Keiyuki is currently going to CSKA Moscow.

Li Ling's existence proves the upper limit of the yellow race in the football field, just like Yao Ming in the basketball field and Son Heung-min later on the real timeline.

At the same time, Li Ling also reduced many unnecessary disputes because of his joining Portugal, and attracted sponsorships from many East Asian companies. For example, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, etc. These sponsored endorsements have almost recovered the transfer fees and wages invested in Li Ling.

After helping Portugal win the World Cup, the Eastern powers were open to Li Ling. After all, Li Ling did not do bad things, just like over tens of thousands of people; instead, they did a lot of good things, such as donations, charity, etc.

Although no companies have found Li Ling's endorsement for the time being because they are waiting for the exclusive interview with Li Ling from the National Channel to see the trend, some companies still contact Real Madrid and strive for Real Madrid's Oriental Tour through sponsorship.

Mourinho has taken a reassurance to add David Luis to the centre-back position. The left backs include Marcelo and Cointran, the right backs include Thornton and Aberoa, and Nacho, who can adapt to multiple positions, can make up for the leaks, and there is no need to sign players on the back line.

In the midfield position, Kaka has become a little crowded as he returns.

Xavi Alonso definitely occupies one starting position, Li Ling occupies another starting position, and the remaining position will be competed by Moutinho and Fellaini, and Gago and Granero are also here. Fight for an opportunity to play.

But for them, the competition for starting is too fierce.

Li Ling is like an iron man, as if he doesn't know what fatigue is; Harvey Alonso's physical strength is not bad, and due to technical reasons, he doesn't consume much physical strength and can persist in more games.

However, the good news is that Kaka has not been able to play for 90 minutes at this time, so they can get a lot of substitutes to play, but they don’t know what will happen after Kaka gets familiar with it.

Join Real Madrid in the summer of 2010The Spanish potential rising star Canales is sad because he is not adapted to Mourinho's high-level oppression tactics, and has become a marginal figure like Galai, Gago and Granero. If you want to get a stable chance to play, you can only seek a loan.

There is no intention to introduce new players on the front line.

Because Ronaldo is a physical monster like Li Ling, although he doesn't like the high-level oppression tactics, Ronaldo's physical fitness is enough for him to complete the tactical arrangements meticulously.

With one center position left, Higuain and Benzema have a very fierce competition. In order to get the starting position, Higuain began to learn how to support it, but the learning speed was not fast enough. Although Benzema did not want to give up the opportunity to start, his lazy personality led to his disadvantage in the competition with Higuain.

But these two people are enough to occupy Real Madrid center's playing time.

In the end, Mourinho only promoted a striker named Joselu from the echelon to join the first team in case of emergency.

In the 20th round of La Liga, in Real Madrid's home game against Mallorca on January 24, Mourinho played the main lineup for the second half of the season.

Goalkeeper: Casillas;

Defenders: Aberoa, Pepe, Ramos, Coentrand;

Midfielders: Li Ling, Kaka, Xavi Alonso, Moutinho;

Forwards: Ronaldo, Benzema.

Without the impact of injuries, this lineup will be the starting lineup for Real Madrid to compete for the La Liga championship and the Champions League championship.

At the same time, this game is also the first time that Real Madrid's 300 million frontcourt combination has made a joint debut in the past two years. Ronaldo has 94 million, Kaka has 65 million, Benzema has 35 million, and Li Ling has 100 million.

"The frontcourt players are unlimitedly changing positions. I believe in our abilities? Haha." Thinking of Mourinho's tactical arrangements, Li Ling couldn't help laughing.

"I haven't practiced a few times, but this is clearly what we can do without a single act." Ronaldo couldn't help laughing.

"We're definitely fine." Kaka smiled and then became serious. He urgently needed wonderful performances to re-establish his image among Real Madrid fans.

"Well, yes, come on!"
