Red Rebels

699 Olympic Shock Wave

Strictly speaking, this should be the Red Rebels' first domestic game, so the entire Hongkou Stadium was packed, and countless fans couldn't wait to see this legendary team that dominates the world.

The Red Rebels did not disappoint the fans in this game. Although three players on the team did not play due to injuries, even though the players had just experienced more than half a month of devilish training and their physical condition had not yet been adjusted. Although the nature of Mourinho's training is more important than the results of the game, the Red Rebels still won the first warm-up match.

:o, the Red Rebels completely let everyone see the gap between them

You know, the Shanghai team has just finished a league game and ushered in a two-week break. During this period, their physical condition is better than that of the Red Rebels, and this team has many domestic players. The most outstanding star.

However, despite occupying the right time and location, the Red Rebels still easily won the game.

The entire game was under the control of the Red Rebels. In the first half, Ronaldinho took the lead with a direct free kick. Later, Messi was not to be outdone. After passing two people on the right, he cooperated with Kaká. The Brazilian superstar assisted Drogba to score a goal.

Kaka missed a season, and he has always felt guilty about it. Therefore, during the summer break, he returned to the team half a month early to prepare for the game, which made him very active in the first half of this game. Almost dominated this game, and Ronaldinho's direct set-piece opportunity was also brought about by Kaká's pass.

But in the second half, in order to evaluate the players, Mourinho replaced Kaka with Ozil, and then replaced Drogba with Aguero. The Red Rebels' offensive lineup immediately changed. Ronaldinho, Aguero and Messi, plus Ozil behind him, four players form the frontcourt offensive square.

Such changes are indeed a bit overwhelming for the Shanghai team. After all, these players all have excellent personal abilities and cooperate well with each other. Only Ozil is a bit rusty. But with the combination of Ronaldinho, Messi and Aguero, The Red Rebels still firmly controlled the situation on the field, and Messi scored a world wave in the 57th minute of the second half.

:o After taking the lead, Mourinho once again made a large number of substitutions. Substitute players such as Walcott and Di Maria all appeared on behalf of the team. These players were also holding back their anger and wanted to win before the season. In the warm-up match, he can gain more impression points for himself so that he can be favored by Mourinho.

However, after this warm-up match, several players from the Red Rebels will be selected into the Olympic team to prepare for the upcoming Beijing Olympics in August, which is a major event.

The Brazilian Olympic team had called to inquire before.

Let’s see if the Red Rebels can allow Kaka to represent the Brazilian team in the Olympic team as an underage player. However, after an in-depth conversation with Kaká, the Red Rebel coaching staff finally rejected the Brazilian Olympic team’s request. After all, he He has just returned from injury and is in urgent need of competition training.

But the Red Rebels' full-back Davide Thornton can't. He was promoted by the Italian Olympic team and included in the 8-man roster. He will go to participate in training after this game.

In addition, the Argentine Olympic team also came to recruit. Due to Maradona's efforts, the Red Rebels finally allowed the Argentine Olympic team to be recruited. The other party recruited three Red Rebel stars in one go, namely Messi and Aguero. and Di Maria.

Nigeria signed Mikel, who is an age-appropriate player, and the Red Rebels were unable to do anything about it. However, the Red Rebels refused Cote d'Ivoire's request to recruit Drogba as an age-appropriate player.

Just kidding, Messi, Aguero and Di Maria are missing all at once. If Drogba leaves again, the Red Rebels really don't have to play. What will happen to the league in August?

But when it comes to the Beijing Olympics, the Red Rebels should also thank Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

With the emphasis on youth training strategy in the past few seasons, England's youth training has been doing very well. In the European U national team competition in 2007, England defeated Germany, Italy and the Netherlands to win the championship, which enabled England to win the 2008 European Cup. Tickets for the 2018 Beijing Olympics football event.

Currently, Michael Johnson, Ismail, Walcott, and Micah Richards of the Red Rebels are all eligible players for the England national team. If England also participates in the Beijing Olympics at this time, the Red Rebels will There is no doubt that more than half of the players will be transferred away, and the situation the team will face will be dangerous by then.

However, according to the regulations of the Olympic Games, teams must be formed in the form of a country to be eligible to participate. Although England won the European U championship, it cannot represent the United Kingdom because Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland do not recognize England’s national team. status, and was not allowed to organize a British team, so England automatically lost its qualifications and was replaced by Italy, which ranked fifth.

From this point of view, the Red Rebels are undoubtedly the survivors of the disaster.

However, since the next Olympic Games will be held in London, there are already many calls that the football associations of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland should focus on the overall situation and organize a British team to participate in the competition. After all, if the London Olympics Without a British team, it would be a real joke.

After playing a warm-up match with the Shanghai representative team, the Red Rebels did not leave Shanghai immediately. Instead, they continued to stay here and played another warm-up match with the training National Olympic team. As a result, the Red Rebels still continued to train. It's mainly of a nature, but it's still a clean second victory.

After this warm-up match, Mourinho tactfully put forward some suggestions and politely stated that he was very optimistic about the strength of the Olympic team, but in fact, in private, he had no feelings for this team. The reviews are not good.

But no matter what, the Red Rebels immediately headed to Beijing after playing this warm-up match.

On the second day after the Red Rebels arrived in Beijing, the team officially announced that it had purchased American veteran Friedel from Blackburn Rovers for 10 million euros. However, this acquisition did not attract much attention from the outside world. After all, everyone watched it. It follows that this acquisition is just an acquisition made by the Red Rebels to enhance the thickness of the goalkeeper bench.

Although he was once the outstanding goalkeeper of England, Friedel's peak period has undoubtedly passed. Now he has begun to enter the end of his career. He has not thought about setting another brilliant record and chasing Kai Ke. West Keller's back, using the Red Rebels as the last stop of his career, is undoubtedly a good result.

Of course, the Red Rebels' purchase of Friedel is not without commercial considerations. After all, after joining Casey Keller, the Red Rebels' influence in the North American market has increased. Now that Beckham has retired, the Red Rebels The influence of the rebels in the United States has weakened, and the introduction of Friedel has the consideration of continuing to strengthen this aspect.

For the coaching staff, Friedel's ability is what they value. Everyone believes that he will be Cech's most powerful substitute. After all, he is still very old and strong.

When the Red Rebels purchased Friedel, the jersey numbers of the Red Rebels' first team were also changed.

Beckham, Thuram, Pato, Adler and Asa either retire or transfer. The jersey numbers left by these players are all vacant. How to arrange them?

Currently, the Red Rebels have introduced two players, namely Mesut Ozil and Brad Friedel. These two players have not yet determined their jersey numbers and have not yet officially met with the fans at the Red Rebel Stadium. meet, but their jersey numbers have already been finalized.

As a goalkeeper, Friedel's jersey number is relatively easy to choose. He directly chose jersey number 5, which is also the jersey number of the backup goalkeeper of the Red Rebels' first team. At the beginning, Casey Keller and Rene Adler both Wearing this jersey number.

But Beckham's jersey number has become a problem.

In order to prevent English teams from registering a large number of players this season as before, the English League has also begun to use a 5-person registration list. Once this list is registered, except for young players from the youth training camp, no one else can The emergence of non-registered players in the British competition is also to prevent the first team lineups of some wealthy teams from being too bloated.

So who should give the jersey number? This has also attracted the attention of a lot of outside media. After all, this is the jersey passed down by Beckham. As a legendary star who created an era of his own in the Red Rebels, it is very important to take over this jersey. The jersey is undoubtedly equivalent to becoming Beckham's successor.

When considering the successor to the jersey number, Beckham suggested Michael Johnson. He is very similar to Beckham in both position and style. Moreover, he is also a youth training player of the club and is a pure one of his own. He should succeed Beckham. Tom's jersey couldn't be more appropriate.

However, some people believe that the commercial value of the No. 1 jersey is very high, but Michael Johnson obviously does not have the idol temperament of Beckham, so some people suggested Walcott, or Aguero wearing the No. 1 jersey.

However, when Mourinho was in Kunming, he discussed it with Cassel, Mark David and Walsh, and finally decided that Michael Johnson would succeed him. This also shows that the club is mainly about competition. concept, after all, Michael Johnson is the most suitable candidate to succeed Beckham, whether in the Red Rebels or the national team.

Aguero's jersey number is still the same, and Mark David does not support him changing his number, because kun has a high reputation throughout Europe and even the world. Aguero's rash change of number will undoubtedly bring some trouble.

Ozil, who joined later, took over Michael Johnson's No. O jersey last season. As for Pato's No. 7 jersey, it fell on the Red Rebel youth training camp youngster Jack Rodwell. The youngster from the youth academy was promoted to the first team this season and he will become the team's fourth defender.

Mourinho is very optimistic about this youngster. He can not only play as a defender, but also as a defensive midfielder. He has excellent physical fitness, excellent skills and awareness, and is a very pure youngster from the Red Rebels youth training camp. , with the unique style of the Red Rebels youth training camp, was given the title of Curtis II.

Curtis is only 7 years old this year, and Rodwell is 7 years old. The difference is 6 years old, which is a very reasonable age stratification. In addition, Terry is 8 years old, and Vidic is 7 years old, plus an O-year-old Michael who can play guard. Richards, the age distribution of the Red Rebels' defenders is very reasonable.

This is also related to the arrangement of the coaching staff, which fully takes into account the metabolism of the team. After all, in a few years, Rodwell and others will begin to mature, Terry and Vidic will be old, and Curtis and Micah Richard will be older. Now that we have entered the golden age, the team can completely carry out a new round of metabolism.

Not just at guard, but at every position.

For example, forward Drogba is 0 years old. Mourinho has fully considered the issue of his replacement. After all, Drogba's form last season declined a lot due to injuries, and the 20-year-old Ismael quickly rose to prominence. There is also the 0-year-old Aguero. Both players have grown rapidly. In two years, they will be able to take over from Drogba.

And don't forget, the youth training camp also has Lukaku, who is known as Little Warcraft, and Brazilian prodigy Neymar. These two players are now 5 and 6, and they can definitely grow up quickly in the next five years.

In addition, full-back Gianluca Zambrotta has already stated that the 2008/09 season will be his last season with the Red Rebels. He hopes to return to Italy and retire, so in the next season, Murry Neo will focus on developing David Thornton and Fabio, hoping that these two players can grow and improve as soon as possible.

Evra is 7 years old, Davide Thornton is 7 years old, and Fabio is 8 years old. In a few years, when Evra starts to decline, Thornton and Fabio will just be able to take over.

It can be said that in terms of age distribution of the team, the coaching staff of the Red Rebels can be said to have taken great pains to ensure that the team's first team lineup has a perfect combination of old and young, thereby minimizing the team's metabolic losses. .

Regarding this point, the Red Rebels have learned a lesson from Real Madrid at the beginning of the century. At that time, the Galacticos were astonishing and invincible. However, they did not do enough in terms of metabolism, which caused Real Madrid to fall into a long period of low ebb. It was not until the last two seasons that there was any improvement. They improved and reached the semi-finals of the Champions League, but they still could not return to the strength they had at the beginning of the century.

No matter in terms of average age or age distribution, the Red Rebels have always adhered to one principle, which is to keep their combat effectiveness in the best condition, and Mourinho has spent the past few years in the Red Rebels and Xiao Under the influence of Yu, he now looks more and more like the godfather of the Red Rebels and attaches great importance to youth training.

Therefore, after Beckham and Thuram retired and Pato left the team, Mourinho's first consideration was to promote young players from the youth training instead of buying people. This further strengthened the atmosphere of unity within the Red Rebels.

When the Red Rebels arrived in Beijing, the publicity for the Red Rebels charity night was already in full swing, and the next two warm-up games of the Red Rebels pushed this charity evening to the forefront. Especially in the match between the Red Rebels and the national team, the Red Rebels ended the last warm-up match with a score of: o.

After this game, everyone turned their attention to the Red Rebels Charity Night.
