Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

"Blaize, that steal just now was beautiful! If you steal the ball in the future, you can make more bold attempts to push forward. Karim and the others will also retreat immediately to respond to you.

It's normal for the tacit understanding to be a little lacking at this stage. Sometimes if you really can't make up your mind, just go to Cristiano directly and send him a long pass. You can give him a bigger lead time."

On the training ground in the hot summer, Matuidi was holding an energy drink and listening seriously to the advice given to him by Li Ang.

Communication between the two is not a big problem, because at this moment Li Ang is communicating with him in slow but relatively fluent French.

This is also one of the important reasons why the relationship between Matuidi and Li Ang has quickly become closer in recent days.

The reason why Li Ang can use French smoothly now is not because he is diligent and studious.

It was because he had drawn a five-language proficiency capsule worth 500 points from the two golden item cards that had been released in the previous championship gift package.

A five-language proficiency capsule, a pair of gold-level ankle protection boots, and a bottle of intermediate physical recovery potion that can be used ten times without time limit.

These are the three props Li Ang opened.

He likes the ankle protection boots very much and is very satisfied with them. He can accept them as long as they are equipment with added injury resistance properties.

The previous strong shin pads combined with these ankle protection boots are enough to allow him to avoid most court injuries.

After all, the injured parts of football players are basically the knee joint and the legs below. Generally, it is not easy to injure the upper body.

There is nothing much to say about the physical recovery potion. It is a regular item in the item card and is still very useful.

It was this five-language proficiency capsule. When Li Ang saw it for the first time, he thought it was expensive and it was not cost-effective to redeem it.

He still has this idea.

However, Kaidu has already opened it. Even if he uses the item recycling function within the system, he can only sell this language proficiency capsule for 200 points.

After thinking about it for a while, he felt that it was really a loss, so Li Ang finally just used it.

French, Arabic, German, Russian, Italian, these are the five languages ​​that Leon finally selected to be proficient in.

Among them, he knows Italian. At least in terms of spoken language, he has no problem communicating with Italians on a daily basis.

But in the end, he really didn’t know which language to choose. There was no need to learn Portuguese, he knew English.

As for speaking Korean and Japanese?

He didn't want to learn that thing, he just didn't want to learn it subjectively, so in the end he simply chose to become proficient in Italian, which could be regarded as further adjusting his accent.

So Matuidi was pleasantly surprised to find that in addition to Benzema, he had another teammate in the Real Madrid team who could communicate in French without any barriers.

As a result, Li Ang once again became famous in the training base. When faced with questioning from his teammates, he could only attribute it to his own learning ability.

This statement is not bad, after all, Li Ang has previously taught himself Italian.

It’s just that I, Guofeng, felt 10,000 points of damage.

It’s okay if you don’t ask me for advice when you learn French. Now when you use French to communicate with others, you don’t give priority to me. Instead, you are looking for new teammates?

No more love, no more love.

Mourinho felt an unexpected surprise in this matter. After all, Li Ang and Matuidi are destined to partner many times in the new season.

If there is no problem with language communication, then with Li Ang's guidance and explanation, Matuidi can be integrated into the team's tactics as soon as possible.

The pre-season preparation time this season is still too short.

The European Cup has been played for a month, and many of the main players in the Real Madrid team still need to rest for a while.

But the schedule waits for no one. After Real Madrid ends its last two warm-up games with Milan and Celtic, it will usher in the first round of La Liga.

Then came the Western Super Cup and European Super Cup games.

Therefore, in order to allow the main players more rest time, Mourinho may have to arrange a rotation lineup with sufficient strength to face the first round of La Liga.

Li Ang and Matuidi basically decided to be the starting partner of double midfielders.

With Alonso resting, it is enough for Li Ang to delay the organization.

As long as Matuidi integrates into the team faster, Mourinho will still be quite satisfied with this double midfielder combination.

Everyone says that Mourinho likes to use a black and hard midfielder, but the fact is that the black and hard midfielder is really easy to use.

Even though Matuidi is not well-known now and has not played many major competitions on behalf of the French national team, his strength can fully meet Mourinho's tactical requirements.

The midfielder has a large coverage area, excellent physical fitness, and outstanding interception ability. The key is that he is obedient and willing to do more dirty work.

It doesn't matter that he is not tall. Li Ang can supplement the air defense in the midfield by dragging behind.

Today, Li Ang is over 1.84 meters tall, and his weight has gradually increased to 82 kilograms. He has excellent jumping, and his header has also made great progress. He just makes up for Matuidi's shortcomings in air defense.

Finally, with Essien in good form, this midfield trio can only be said to be very tough, even tougher than when Brother Face was here.

Of course, the opponents they faced in the previous warm-up matches were too weak to test the current level of cooperation between the three.

Brother Milan came at the right time.

On the evening of August 8, Real Madrid ushered in a warm-up match against AC Milan at the Bernabeu.

The communication between the players and coaches on both sides before the game was very friendly.

Kaka has now won the Triple Crown in Real Madrid and returned to Milan, which can be regarded as a happy ending to the story.

Milan fans are no longer unhappy or even slightly disgusted with Real Madrid.

Of course, if Real Madrid is willing to loan Li Ang to Milan for another season or two, then the Roseneris will naturally be even happier.

It's a pity that I can't borrow it.

As Mourinho's absolute direct descendant and one of Real Madrid's current midfield cores, Real Madrid will never loan out Liang easily again.

So when watching Li Ang and Kaka, their former Milan teammates, and Allegri interacting and hugging each other familiarly, Milan fans could only sigh softly.

In the friendly match that night, the two sides played fairly friendly, and the intensity of the confrontation was high, but the moves were not too big, let alone flagrant fouls.

But even with a restrained defense, Real Madrid's new trio of tough guys also made Milan's veterans suffer.

Before it was Li Ang's turn to take action, Matuidi Gaesien's sweep had already defused most of Milan's central offensive.

The Real Madrid fans were very comfortable watching, but Lafayette in the private room smiled a little reluctantly.

How come the second generation of Galaxy Battleship, which he had put so much effort into over the past few years, suddenly developed from a cloud of superstars and handsome guys to a devilish muscular man?

The effect of the warm-up match was very outstanding. Lafayette also understands football, so he can naturally see the importance of Mourinho's tactical play to stable results.

But Ehinga Matuidi, that really doesn’t have much commercial promotion value.

Finally, looking at Li Ang's handsome and sunny face, Lafayette felt that his heart that was being pinched gradually relaxed.

Uncle Psy didn't know the uncomfortable thoughts of his chairman at this moment. He had a smile on his face, and he and Karanka joked and communicated the whole game on the coaching bench.

The result of the final warm-up season was 4-2. For Real Madrid, Ronaldo, who came on as a substitute in the second half, scored twice, and Higuain and Callejon scored one after another.

Real Madrid also won three consecutive warm-up matches after losing to Benfica.

On the afternoon of August 12, in the last pre-season warm-up match with the Celtics, Mourinho asked almost all the players in the first team to take the field.

When it comes to the state of the game, the current Real Madrid coaching staff is not worried.

The core players of the team almost all played until the last moment of the European Cup.

Li Ang, who is also a beast, has practiced for another month. Now that he has gathered all his main players to play against Barcelona, ​​Mourinho is absolutely confident that he can win the game against Barcelona again.

But looking at the overall situation, in order to steadily win the Western Super Cup and the European Super Cup, the main players still need to rest.

After rehearsing tactics in the last week, Mourinho released a smoke bomb at the pre-match press conference for the first round of the new season.

Facing Valencia, a strong opponent in the opening match that ended up ranking third in La Liga last season, Mourinho was not careless.

Emery said before the game that he would go all out to score points at the Bernabeu's home court.

It can be seen that he is still a little unconvinced by the two defeats at the hands of Mourinho last season.

Real Madrid's first 18-man starting roster also made him think about it for a long time.

Ronaldo, Benzema, Di Maria, Alonso

Faced with the fact that Real Madrid is likely to use all its main players, Emery believes that they cannot press forward too much at the beginning and cannot be anxious.

Real Madrid's stat of over 130 league goals last season was really terrifying. Any team that would compete with Real Madrid would be looking for death.

So Emery carefully formulated a 4-2-31 starting formation that specializes in counterattacks.

But on the night of August 19, what he saw was not Real Madrid with all the main players out.

Cristiano Ronaldo and the others were talking and laughing on the Real Madrid bench, giving instructions and exchanging ideas, while the Real Madrid starting players standing on the field were what Emery thought was the substitute rotation before the game!

And after the game started, these Real Madrid substitute players quickly gained the upper hand in the battle with Valencia!

Li Ang showed his "general style" from the beginning of the game.

His organization and scheduling, as well as his long and short passing abilities, seem to have improved a lot compared to last season.

Still visible progress.

This caused La Liga commentators from various countries to sigh, saying that Li Ang is now more and more versatile.

But soon, during a quick counterattack by Valencia after stealing the ball, Li Ang cooperated with the chasing Matuidi to give Guardado a decisive and fierce tackle.

Okay, this tastes right right away!

Li Ang, who still had grass clippings on his face, stood up and even reminded his teammates to concentrate more on the defensive end.

Almighty is indeed his future development trend.

But stable defense is his foundation!
