Red Rebels

7 The Great Age

Almost every season, one or two dazzling new stars emerge from the youth training camp of the Red Rebels, such as Aguero back then, Theo Walcott later, and Aaron Lahm later. together.

This season, the Red Rebels have suddenly emerged with many outstanding rookies, such as Wilshere, Nymar, Davide Thornton, Rodwell and others. These players have often played on the first line this season. The team's main cup players and substitute players also performed very well.

Even the twin brothers Fabio and Rafael’s performance on both wings this season is obvious to all. They can play wingers, full-backs and full-backs, almost becoming one-stop on the wing, and if If they looked very immature in the first two seasons, they have performed much more steadily this season.

If we want to say that the biggest performance of this season is undoubtedly Rodwell and Thornton, these two new backcourt stars are the most amazing rookies of the Red Rebels this season.

After Thuram left, Rodwell successfully took over Thuram's scepter. The England star, who can play as a defensive midfielder and defender, is currently the fourth defender in the team, but in this season's League Cup and FA Cup, and many times as a substitute in the league and Champions League. His performance has always been very stable. Although he has made mistakes, he has made great progress.

Many people evaluate Rodwell and Curtis together. They believe that Rodwell is Curtis II. He will be a strong defender for the Red Rebels in the next few years, and he is only 7 years old. High potential can be tapped.

The Italian Thornton is also a young player who came out of the Red Rebels youth training camp. Zambrotta once spoke highly of the Italian compatriot and believed that he would be his ideal successor. However, unfortunately, it is Thornton's outstanding performance this season. , which made Zambrotta's situation in the Red Rebels very embarrassing, and he transferred to the Red Rebels for 00 million euros during the winter break; Thornton, who can play on both sides, whether it is speed, defensive skills, awareness, or In terms of assist ability and technique, he has the taste of a young version of Zambrotta, and he is more detailed than Zambrotta in terms of technique, because when he was in the youth team, he always played in the frontcourt, until he It was only at the age of 6 that he decided to play full-back.

There is no doubt that these two players are young players that Mourinho admires very much. They are the kids he cultivated, so he attaches great importance to their training. In this away game against Bayern Munich, they won Got the chance to play, and both players played the entire game.

David Thornton faced Bayern's Robben on the right. The Dutchman was Thornton's senior brother. Everyone thought that Robben would teach his junior brother a good lesson in this game. But no one expected that the one who had the last laugh would be David Thornton.

It was this game that made the whole world recognize him, the new Maldini, Davide Thornton

Bayern Munich's tactics are still 44,

Altintop replaced Ze Roberto and formed a double midfielder with Bastian Schweinsteiger. Robben played on the right, and Toni and Klose partnered up front. They played very proactively from the beginning.

The Red Rebels arranged young players in some positions. Young and substitute players such as left back Davide Thornton, defender Rodwell, midfielder Mikel, and right back Micah Richards all played. .

Compared with Micah Richards, who has become more and more stable after many seasons of training in England, left back Thornton and defender Rodwell are undoubtedly very good breakthrough points. They are 7 years old, young and inexperienced. , stage fright and so on are all shortcomings of young people, so Klinsmann focuses on attacking these two points.

Robben, Toni, and Klose all attacked these two points, especially Robben on the right. With a powerful striker like Toni in the penalty area, his breakthrough and passing on the right are naturally very important.

In the direct dialogue between the brothers, in many one-on-one battles, Robben did not even take advantage of him. David Thornton was almost invincible in terms of speed, technology, awareness and other aspects. To be picky, Robben was completely restricted in this game.

In addition to his impressive defense, Thornton's offensive performance is also amazing. Even in the second half, when everyone's physical fitness was declining, he suddenly made a long-distance attack from the left. Almost assisted Ismail to score.

Robben was active in this game, and Bayern Munich also created several threatening attacks, but none of them started from the Thornton area. From this, it is not difficult to see what Thornton gained from the contest with Robben. Transcript.

If Thornton's performance was amazing, then Rodwell's first goal in the European competition was a bit surprising.

In this game, he served as Curtis' substitute and formed a guard combination with Terry. His performance was not inferior to Thornton on the left at all, but compared with Thornton's unanimous praise, Rodwell seemed a bit Both reputation and reputation are mixed.

He scored a goal in this game. It was a long shot after a sudden advance. This was also his first goal in the Champions League. However, he once missed Toni because of his negligence and lack of concentration. , the latter helped Bayern score the equalizing goal.

When he was in the youth team, Rodwell played as an attacking midfielder and a midfielder, but he was better at defensive midfielder and defender. The latter was played by the coaching staff after entering the reserve team. He played in the youth team. The team appears more as a midfielder, and he is also the captain of the midfielder in the England youth team.

With a height of 88cm and a build of 80kg, Rodwell has good speed and flexibility, and excellent jumping. He is also a leader in the Red Rebels youth training camp in terms of technology, defensive awareness and skills. His biggest problem now It's his old problem of not being able to concentrate enough, and his lack of experience.

As a 7-year-old young man, Rodwell is good enough, but if he wants to gain a foothold in the Red Rebels first team, he undoubtedly needs to do more. Scoring his first goal in the Champions League is just the beginning.
