Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid
Chapter 6 Facing the future
Real Betis has not given up on the idea of bringing in Liang, and they made a final negotiation effort before the start of the season.
Not surprisingly, Real Madrid, or Mourinho simply refused.
Perhaps such a decision is not a good result for Li Ang.
After all, Ras Diyala and Khedira were only temporarily injured, not dead.
After the two of them return from injury, Li Ang's playing order will naturally be postponed.
But now Li Ang is not qualified to willfully refuse the club that has cultivated him.
Fortunately, Mourinho is also very candid. He recently found time to talk to Li Ang again, and bluntly said that Li Ang needs to sacrifice this half of the season to protect Real Madrid's defensive midfielder position.
The reward he can give is that after the winter window opens, if Las Diarra and Khedira can both be healthy and play for Real Madrid.
Then Li Ang can get the support of Real Madrid and rent out to a club that suits him.
Li Ang actually had no choice, but Mourinho could give him such a verbal promise, which made him feel much better.
On August 27, it was basically the end of the last training session before the start of the new season.
Real Madrid's first-team players gathered at the training ground, awaiting Mourinho's "sentence" on their fate for the new season.
Whoever can enter the eleven-man starting lineup for the first league match against Mallorca on the evening of August 29th today is basically equivalent to gaining Mourinho's initial trust.
Players who were favored during the Pellegrini period may not necessarily have the same tactical status as last season in Mourinho's hands.
And some players will lose their original tactical status, and another group of players will naturally benefit.
Of course, the superstars in the Real Madrid team, such as Ronaldo, Casillas, Ramos, Xavi Alonso and others, are not worried about their main position.
No matter how the coach changes, as long as the one who takes over is not a fool, they will not be relegated to the bench.
In fact, this is indeed the case.
The names of Cristiano Ronaldo, Xavi Alonso and Ramos were read out early by the former Real Madrid star Mr. Karanka who is currently the assistant coach of the team.
Higuain was obviously relieved to be selected into the starting lineup, while Benzema was slightly disappointed.
Marcelo, Arbeloa, Canales and other players who were selected for the first round of the league were all smiling.
After Casillas' name came out, all the Real Madrid players standing on the court basically turned their attention to Li Ang and Gago.
Now only the final starter remains to be announced.
Xabi Alonso and Canales occupy two of the starting three midfielders, and the remaining midfielder is basically a defensive type.
Otherwise, if Granero plays again, Xabi Alonso will have to play as a single defensive midfielder again, and the pressure on organization and defense will be too great.
After a brief pause, Karanka did not keep the suspense for too long and quickly said the name of the last starting player.
"Leon."
Gago clenched his palms, and at that moment he felt as if his heart was being squeezed.
Mourinho looked calm on the side and signaled Karanka to announce the remaining substitute players in the 18-man roster.
Li Ang pursed his lips and his expression was equally calm - at least on the surface it looked that way.
Alonso was very satisfied with Li Ang's calmness at this time and taught Li Ang for more than ten days. He also had a preliminary understanding of Li Ang's character traits.
There is a cheerful and sunny nature in his calmness. Li Ang must be very happy inside at this moment, but his precocity made him react in the most appropriate way.
It's normal to be excited, but jumping out like that will inevitably make some players in the team unhappy.
Those who have interest entanglements are unhappy, and those who do not have interest entanglements are likely to feel unhappy because of this.
If you pick any club in the five major leagues, there will be several "jiangs and lakes" in the locker room, large and small.
As the top club in today's football, Real Madrid's situation in the locker room is naturally more complicated.
Alonso doesn't want to have too much interaction with his Real Madrid teammates in private, largely because of this issue.
If he doesn't join any faction, then these complicated disputes will naturally have nothing to do with him.
Li Ang can now chat with everyone in the team, and he usually looks cheerful and likes to make friends.
I was able to talk to Cristiano Ronaldo some time ago, and in recent days it seems that he and Ramos have been discussing defensive positioning issues frequently.
Alonso was slightly worried about him.
He was afraid that he would lose control of himself because of his good relationship with the superstars of various factions in the team.
But now seeing that Li Ang still maintains a low profile and calmness, Alonso is relieved.
He was not mistaken.
After Mourinho announced the 18-man roster in Karanka, he first spoke to encourage the defeated players, and then mobilized the morale of the starting players.
Before the start of the new season, the successive injuries among Real Madrid's defensive players not only made Mourinho feel difficult.
The atmosphere of the entire team seems to have been greatly affected, and everyone is more worried about the record at the beginning of the new season.
Mourinho does not want to let this anxiety affecting morale continue on the field.
So today he had to do this mobilization. It was not only an encouragement, but also a "warning".
The health concerns of the roster are real, but private discussions have ended today.
No matter how "difficult" the selection is for the coaching staff, as long as a player is selected into the 18-man roster, he must eliminate those unnecessary distractions in his mind and be prepared to do everything for Real Madrid to win!
They do not seek success, they must succeed.
Because they represent Real Madrid, this is also the meaning of these players wearing Real Madrid jerseys.
Mourinho dislikes players who are not strong-willed enough and want to slack off mentally.
Even if there is a shortage of players in the midfield and backcourt now, as long as there is a player who lacks the willpower to fight on the court, Mourinho will never tolerate him.
Whether this "unaccustomed" player will be substituted or directly kicked out of the 18-man roster depends on the Real Madrid players themselves to carefully figure out.
The time soon came to the evening of August 29th.
When outside public opinion is generally worried about Real Madrid's defensive problems in the new season, Real Madrid's players have already taken the bus from their hotel to the Iberia Star Stadium.
The natural scenery on the island of Mallorca is excellent, but at this moment, few Real Madrid players are still paying attention to the scenery outside the car window.
Mourinho and assistant coach Karanka are still using the last bit of time to discuss tactics.
And Leon sat next to Xavi Alonso, very calm and calm. He closed his eyes and fell asleep!
I remember that my brother Long was in charge of Real Sociedad when he was less than 20 years old. Later, he went to Liverpool to compete in the Premier League and played against various midfield players.
In 2005, I personally experienced a shocking battle. Milan came back at half-time and successfully won the Champions League title that countless players dream of.
He successfully joined Real Madrid last year and won the World Cup this summer. It can be said that he has seen a lot.
But with Li Ang, Xavi Alonso has refreshed his inherent understanding of young players time and time again.
"I know you're calm, but you don't have to be so calm."
Rarely complaining in his heart, Alonso looked at his big-hearted "apprentice" and smiled and shook his head.
For no reason, the worry that had always lingered in his heart seemed to be gradually dissipating.
At least, he doesn’t have to worry about Li Ang getting weak in his first league game on behalf of Real Madrid~
…
After the warm-up, Li Ang returned to the visiting team's locker room with his teammates.
Cristiano Ronaldo tweaked his hairstyle again in the mirror, and Mourinho then stood in the middle of the dressing room and began his passionate speech.
Li Ang actually didn't hear clearly what kind of blood Mourinho had done.
He just remembered his tactical responsibilities and the overall tactical tone of the team.
Amid the noisy roars, Li Ang roared twice symbolically, and then it was time to line up in the player tunnel.
"Relax, little lion. Don't worry too much when you get on the court. Keep communicating with your teammates."
Casillas patted Li Ang's head affectionately and comforted him.
The other Real Madrid players also smiled and patted Li Ang's butt when passing by, or gave him a few words of encouragement.
After all, in their eyes, Li Ang is still a 19-year-old "child", so nervousness in his debut is inevitable.
Li Ang did not refuse the kindness of his teammates. After making a gesture to indicate that he was fine, he stood behind Alonso.
Near nine o'clock in the evening, the referee team finally set off and walked out of the tunnel first.
Li Ang took a deep breath, and then followed Alonso gradually into the court.
When the light fell on his face, he raised his head slightly and faced cheers and boos mixed in.
He also faced his unknown future.
Because I have to go out to do errands today, I scheduled the release date for the update of my new book in advance late last night. If a friend who also writes a book hadn’t reminded me just now, I would have never known that the second chapter had not been released. This is too stupid!
