Chapter 124

"I came to you to talk about my position." Deng Kai got straight to the point, "I know that my qualifications and versatility may not be as good as other players."

"But I know what I can bring to the team, so I need more support."

As long as you don't talk about sex, Quaresma immediately resumed his big brother style: "Kai, I know this is the first time you have been selected for the National Youth Team. I have also been at your stage."

"But what you have to do is to obey the arrangement of the coaching staff and wait for the opportunity, instead of... forming gangs. This is tantamount to your performance on the court."

Deng Kai was not blocked by Quaresma's official reply. He laughed and said: "Actually, the double attacking midfielder tactic is a kind of liberation for wingers and wing attacking midfielders. You should have seen the training of the previous few days. The importance of Jana to Ronaldo."

"Cristiano Ronaldo is not as strong as you at this stage, but the data in the past few days is not much worse than yours."

"There is also Viana, his statistics are also very good."

"But this kind of liberation does not fall on your head. Because Meireles is not a player like Viana, even if he is in the midfielder, he is essentially a midfielder."

"He can't send you a threatening pass, but instead he can use your involvement to frequently shoot long shots."

"I believe that the current situation, neither the head coach nor you, nor the club, really wants to see it."

"A team that has been unable to play the core threat of the strongest star can hardly be called successful."

"Because such a team can beat average opponents, but cannot beat top opponents."

"Only Supo Star can defeat Supotim!"

"And there's only one superstar on this team...and that's you, Quaresma."

Deng Kai expressed his feelings directly.

His behavior is indeed in competition with Meirelles.

But he wasn't just competing with Meireles.

It's not about competing for competition's sake either.

He started by developing the team's strongest offensive power.

This is what Violante wants to see.

If this cannot be achieved, even if the Portuguese U16 can go a little further, it will not make much sense.

It doesn't mean much to Violante, and it doesn't mean much to Quaresma.

And these two people are the two most important people in this team.

The opinions of the two of them can overwhelm the opinions of the vast majority of people.

What Violante wanted was a good trip to the Europa League and a good game.

What Quaresma wants is the crushing performance of professional players against youth players.

Quaresma is already a well-known Portuguese star, and Viana is far from being able to compare with him in this regard.

Just like Mbappe and Harland who entered the U21, the importance of their needs obviously exceeds the sum of the importance of the needs of other players in the team.

Quaresma looked at Deng Kai.

He had to admit that Deng Kai was really powerful.

In addition to knowing the code words to find a lady, he can also understand people's hearts.

Quaresmar is not stupid, why can't he feel that his importance to the team is declining during training these days?

No superstar can accept this kind of neglect.

The team should give him resources to tilt.

This is the privilege that a star should enjoy.

It has always been the law in this world to give special treatment to people with special abilities and create opportunities for them.

Absolute fairness has never been just a pretense.

But Viana is on the left, he can't make enough connections and cooperation with Quaresma, he can only achieve mutual success with Ronaldo.

Quaresma needs an engine mounted on the right flank.

The Meirelles brand has been tried, it doesn't work.

So it can only be Deng Kai.

"What do you want to do?" Quaresma asked.

"Tomorrow's training match, you come to our substitute team, and I will give you a wonderful assist!" Deng Kai said his plan.

Quaresma frowned: "Who else? Will Ronaldo and Viana come too?"

Deng Kai shook his head: "After they come, they won't be convincing enough."

Quaresma couldn't believe it: "Just me to cooperate with you? The two of us? The strength gap between the substitute camp and the main camp is not small!"

Ronaldo, Postiga, Viana, Meireles, these players are more than one level higher than their substitutes?
The gap in other positions may not be as big, but there is a gap.

"What? Do you think you are not good enough?" Deng Kai said, "If you are not ok, I can only go to Ronaldo. He is indeed not as strong as you, but I have the confidence to help him defeat our defense."

Quaresma couldn't do it at the time: "Who said I can't? I'm a first-team player of Sporting Lisbon, and it's more than enough to take you flying! As for Ronaldo...he's still very tender!"

If nothing else, Quaresma will definitely play in the Portuguese Super League in the first team next season, and may even become the main player.

……

The second day of training.

The substitute team is three to five against the main team.

Lost.

But not much to lose.

Compared with the previous few days, it can be said that there is a huge contrast.

Quaresma scored a hat-trick.

Deng Kai sent him two assists.

After the game, Violante was very happy.

Because Quaresma is fully activated.

Quaresma is different from Ronaldo. The former has the ability to self-activate, while the latter does not.

So Ronaldo needs someone to pass the ball to him very much, but Quaresma doesn't.

However... Quaresma can be stronger if someone can pass the ball to him.

That should be his prime.

Now the problem facing the Portuguese coaching staff is immediately clear.

With a double defensive midfielder formation, the defensive power is enhanced, but Quaresma has become mediocre.Because even when Viana is in the center with a single midfielder, he prefers to go to the left to cooperate with Ronaldo.

Wiener himself is a left player and is more adaptable on the left, which is caused by his playing habits.

And Ronaldo is extremely fast and likes to sprint, which can help Viana pull well.

Viana went to the right side where Quaresma was, so he could only play for Quaresma. Subconsciously, he himself would not like such a choice.

Option two, use a double front midfielder formation, the attack power is enhanced, and Quaresma can explode at any time.

Deng Kai can completely liberate Quaresma.

So who should we choose?
Do you think the option is double front waist or double back waist?Is it Deng Kai or Meirelles?

No.

In fact, the option is to let Quaresma play as an ordinary player or as a superstar.

The answer is obviously the latter.

Because Quaresma is a superstar in itself-as far as young players are concerned.

He is the top card of the national youth team!

It's a golden signboard!
80.00% of this team's followers like Quaresma!
He is a well-known future star in Europe, and his current market value has reached 600 million euros, which is more than twice the combined value of the other players in the team!

It would be unfair to Quaresma to treat Quaresma with an eleventh.

Because what he brought to the team has long exceeded one-eleventh.

It even reached nine out of eleven!
In this case, what's wrong with getting three-elevenths or four-elevenths of the resources in the team?
Probably still unfair, but not because he took too much, but because he took too little, because he should have gotten nine out of eleven!

In the end, the head coach Violante made the decision, and the double attacking midfielder tactic!
Deng Kai's right front midfielder.

Meirelles midfielder.

Although Meirelles is very reluctant, but also had to accept this decision.

Because if he doesn't play, Veloso and Semedo of Sporting Lisbon U15 are both good midfielders, and they are specialized defensive midfielders, which are more suitable for this position than him.

The reason why Meireles is allowed to play this position is largely due to Meireles' cards and overall strength.

Of course, it's not just Meireles. This kind of position competition and compromise can be seen everywhere in the team.

Pereira lost to Bosingwa and became the team's substitute right back.But do you want to say that Bosingwa is definitely better than Pereira?At least on the offensive end, Pereira is actually stronger.

Veloso and Semedo are stronger defensively, but they can only become Meireles' substitutes.

Angelo's strength is not inferior to the main central defender Ricardo Duyadi, but the latter is older and more senior, so Angelo can only play as a substitute.

Cristiano Ronaldo, as the top U15 striker of Sporting Lisbon, can only be played by Viana and has to install the pass button.

Deng Kai is obviously also an attacking midfielder, but in many cases, he has to fill in the gaps for Viana's plug-in and pull-side checks. He and Viana's team weights are obviously different.

Eleven different individuals, constantly friction in the team, constantly looking for each other's adaptation boundaries.

Finally formed a whole.

This is football.

And with the passage of time, the Ou Shao Tournament... officially started!
Portugal and the host Czech Republic, as well as Poland and Switzerland are assigned to the same group, fortunately avoiding the powerful Dutch team.
