"Then let's talk about Real Madrid's frontcourt. It is estimated to be a combination of Anelka, Morientes and Raul. Raul is not a typical striker. He is more like a nine and a half. The role of midfielder and half forward, don’t think that sometimes he is farther away from the goal, and the threat will be less. He and Morientes cooperate very well. As for how to defend these three people, I don’t want to repeat it , I’ve said it many times and I’ve written it down for you, now I’m going to talk about Real Madrid’s defense…”

Having said that, Jiang Mu stood up and started to play the video clips of the Real Madrid defenders. The players in the conference room watched the video carefully and made some comments from time to time.

After the video was played, Jiang Mu said: "Real Madrid is likely to form a 532-352-[-] formation, but in actual combat, it may also become a [-]-[-]-[-] formation, allowing Carlos and Salgado to assist, so that there are only three central defenders left in the backcourt. Three central defenders Style of play This is a classic transformation of Del Bosque in the second half of this season. Real Madrid has always had four defenders before. The biggest advantage of this formation is that it is flexible, stable, which can enhance defense, and aggressive can increase attack power.

Real Madrid has always been strong in offense and weak in defense.The offensive desire and ability of the two full-backs, Salgado and Roberto Carlos, are too strong, and they often rush to the opponent's penalty area.In fact, even Hierro is also a defender who loves offense. This king still holds the title of the third most goals scored by the national team.As a single defensive midfielder, Redondo is the starting point of Real Madrid's offense and defense. The deployment of three defenders also relieved Redondo's defensive pressure, allowing him to concentrate on scheduling, and completely liberated Salgado and Carlos. Let them have no worries, and let Real Madrid's firepower go to a higher level on the basis of a solid defense.

You may think that after Salgado and Carlos assist, there will be a gap behind, but before you want to seize their gap, you must first defend against their attack. The speed of Carlos and Salgado They were both very fast and their technique was good. Riise and Kronkamp had to work hard. "

After Jiang Mu finished speaking, he asked the players to express their opinions and strive to make the tactical drills before the game perfect.To deal with a team like Real Madrid, even the slightest mistake may cause immeasurable consequences. It must be beneficial to make more preparations. Even if these preparations are useless in the end, it is much better than being unprepared and being hit by a surprise attack by Real Madrid.

The meeting lasted for an hour and a half before it ended, but the players didn't feel that the meeting was protracted, because they were the protagonists in the meeting, and Jiang Mu and the members of the coaching staff were just giving guidance and summarization. The atmosphere of the meeting was very lively. The players They expressed their opinions and put forward many constructive opinions on the team's style of play.

For example, Veteran Ray thinks that although Bosque is a tactical master with strong innovation ability and great tactical changes, but once the lineup is formed, Bosque is very superstitious about the main force. He is dull in commanding a single game, does not know how to adapt, responds slowly, and trusts himself too much The main force and their own pre-match tactics.

Ronaldinho said that he can play on the wing and use speed to suppress Real Madrid's full-backs.Ronaldinho and Carlos are teammates of the national team. He said that he is very familiar with Carlos. This game will definitely not make Carlos assists so crazy. If Carlos dares to assist like before, he will be able to beat Real Madrid's left. into a sieve.

After the rest of the players, the coaching staff did not rest. Everyone is still making final deliberations on the starting 11 of the game. Now there are less than two days before the start of the game. There is still a place for the starting 11 of Alkmaar Not quite nailed down.

Among these 11 people, the goalkeeper and the back line have basically been determined. The current state of the game is unknown, Jiang Mu dare not take risks, and still let Martens and Lucio be the main players.

The frontcourt is a bit of a headache because Van Bommel is injured, should he go to Engel or Lay?Lai's organizational and offensive abilities are stronger, but his defense is obviously not as good as Engel's, but Engel is like a bull. Except for a long shot, he has no organizational ability at all, even worse than Gattuso. If Gattuso and Engel are allowed to play double midfielders, this center attack will not be expected.But in the case of Shang Layi, with Real Madrid's powerful midfielder, the risk to the goal is obviously very high.

In the end, Jiang Mu made a bold decision to let Enge and Lai play at the same time and play three midfielders. In this way, Enge can make up for Lai's lack of defense, and Lai can help the two reckless men complete the offensive and defensive transition and let the offense in the middle It is no longer a decoration.

After confirming the three midfielders, the frontcourt is also a problem. Ronaldinho, who originally played the midfielder, had to play as a winger. Barbados and Thomasson can only play together as a striker, Drogba or Thomason?This is another problem.Because Drogba and Thomason are completely two types of forwards. Thomason has a strong ability to seize opportunities, but he needs others to feed him the ball. If no one passes him the ball, Thomason is tantamount to a useless person.

Drogba has strong explosive power and extremely sturdy body. He can pose a threat to Real Madrid's entire defense line by himself, but his ability to seize opportunities is too poor, and he will waste the opportunities he creates.

After careful consideration by the coaching staff, they think that they will not get many chances in the match against Real Madrid. The ability to grasp opportunities is better than the ability to create opportunities, so it is more appropriate for Thomason to play.

Drogba has changed from a starter to a substitute. I don't know if he will have the opportunity to play on this big stage. Go to Drogba's room and inform Drogba of this temporary decision.

Drogba didn't know that he had changed from the main force to the substitute. He saw Jiang Mu coming to his room early in the morning, opened the door to Jiang Mu in a daze, and said, "Coach, it's time for breakfast. ?"

"Not yet, I'm here to tell you something." Jiang Mu sat down on the sofa, lit a cigarette, and said.

Drogba stared at Jiang Mu smoking, swallowed, and said, "What's the matter, coach, just tell me."

Jiang Mu's expression became serious, and he said: "Well, it's like this. After yesterday's meeting, we made some adjustments to the starting lineup. You will no longer start. For the team's victory and the dream of being a champion, I hope you can understand the coach. group decision."

"What?!" Drogba almost jumped up, and roared furiously: "Why? Yesterday I played training as the main force, why did I become a substitute now? Who decided not to let me play, coach, I know Someone must have said something bad about me."

The veins on Drogba's forehead were throbbing suddenly, as if he was about to choose someone to eat at any time.

"No one speaks ill of you, this is my decision." Jiang Mu said calmly and seriously.

When Drogba heard it, he was stunned for a while, like a deflated ball, and sat down on the sofa with a sad face, and said: "Coach, why did you let me play as a substitute? Yesterday was fine, I already let my My wife and children came to Saint-Denis to watch me play, and I want to hug my son to celebrate the championship, coach, I am half French, coach, you were Alkmaar who invited me to my house, are you now Do you not trust me?"

Jiang Mu smiled wryly, but in order to win, he could not be soft-hearted, and patted Drogba on the shoulder, Jiang Mu comforted in a deep voice: "Didier, I still trust you, you just don't start, but I guarantee you will play At that time, Real Madrid is a very strong team, we have to play exceptionally to be able to beat them, the chances we can create must be very limited, Thomason is better than your ability to seize opportunities, we need him to help us score goals ,do you understand?"

When Drogba heard that he definitely had a chance to play, he felt a little better, and muttered: "I'm not as good at grasping opportunities, but I can create opportunities better than him. He will fall when he touches it. I can win among the three defenders." ball."

Jiang Mu said: "Now we are not comparing with Real Madrid in the ability to create opportunities, what we are comparing with is the ability to seize opportunities. No matter how many opportunities you create, it is difficult to surpass Real Madrid. Do you understand?"

Drogba thought about himself, then thought about the superstars of Real Madrid, his confidence was shaken again, and said: "Coach, how much playing time can I get, don't let me show up in stoppage time, delay After a while, it would be a shame."

Seeing Drogba bargaining with him, Jiang Mu couldn't help laughing, and said: "No, you will have at least 20 minutes. If you play overtime, you will definitely have more time. I will give you the time. , the opportunity is up to you to grasp.”

20 minutes is not a short time. Although it is not the starting lineup, Drogba feels ashamed, but Drogba can only accept the guarantee of more than 20 minutes, because Jiang Mu is even playing for 1 minute. If you don't give it to him, he has to sit on the bench obediently.

"Okay, coach, I will try my best to seize the opportunity. Believe me, I am definitely no worse than Thomason." Drogba clenched his fists, as if Thomasson had now become his enemy.

Jiang Mu chuckled, stood up, and said: "It's good to have this confidence, Didier, don't worry, among these players, I am most optimistic about you, Ronaldinho, Robben, work hard, and you will become Ronaldo, Raul Such a superstar."

"That requires more guidance and training from the coach." Drogba was very comfortable being slapped by Jiang Mu's little flattery. He stood up and gave Jiang Mu a standing attention, and his expression changed from cloudy to sunny.

"Well, as long as you work hard."

Jiang Mu also heaved a sigh of relief psychologically. He was very worried about Drogba's hot temper. Now that it has been resolved satisfactorily, he is very happy. Next, he will go to another room to find Engel and Lai and talk about the day after tomorrow. initial question.
