All-around center

In mid-August 2013, at the end of the transfer window, Real Madrid completed the final transfer operation.

They used 65 million euros to invite Brazilian player Pato to join from AC Milan.

This transfer is surprising, after all, there was almost no news before, but it only took less than a week from the news to being announced.

In the end, Real Madrid still had a moderate transfer discussion this season.

As the core player of AC Milan, Pato has become another pillar player of Milan after the era of Suker and Kaká.

Pato, 24 years old this year, has gradually entered the peak period of his career.

After Milan obtained enough resources and assumed a core role, there was another period of explosive growth.

Now, Pato is no longer satisfied with the intensity of the competition in Serie A, but is about to transfer to Real Madrid.

This was also the beginning of his pursuit of Suk's footsteps.

AC Milan is also preparing to let Pato go.

The twisted melon is not sweet.

Those who are forced to stay will eventually cause some trouble.

Just like Pato's previous transfer meetings, the two parties have finally reached an agreement after communication.

Pato also got his wish and got the hope of joining Real Madrid.

It's just that in AC Milan, he is the core player

After coming to Real Madrid, he will most likely be the first substitute.

"Is he sick?"

Su Ke looked at the huge headline on "Marca" and was stunned.

In the original time and space, Pato had to return the goods during this period. Due to the sudden drop in form caused by playing every night, Pato returned to play in the Brazilian League.

Now with Suk's help, this guy has changed his destiny, but this is too big a turn.

And why is he coming to Real Madrid?

There are so many clubs, so many giants. If Pato wants to transfer, those teams will definitely accept him.

Why does it have to be Real Madrid?

When this guy comes to Real Madrid, he will most likely be a substitute.

Of course, this will also help Real Madrid open up the front line and increase competition in multi-line arenas.

But is it really necessary?

"Actually, Pato talked to me on the phone before the transfer."

Kaka on the side said suddenly.

Su Ke turned around: "You instigated him to transfer?"

Kaka grinned: "How is that possible? However, I also think it is not a good thing for him to stay in Milan."

To be honest, Kaka is also a little selfish,

After all, Pato is a Brazilian player, and his condition and performance can help the national team.

Although Neymar may be the leader in the future, it will definitely be better with Pato's help during this transition period.

Also, Pato’s character is too out of the ordinary.

He caused a lot of trouble in Milan.

In Milan today, those big brothers are retreating and walking away. Almost no one can suppress Pato, and this guy is getting carried away.

Kaka believes that Pato can only play honestly with Suker.

Another reason is Ancelotti.

In fact, this transfer was promoted by Ancelotti.

When Pato joined, Ancelotti said that Pato's talent is enough to make him world-class or even historical-class.

In the declining Serie A, it is indeed difficult for Pato to perform.

For this reason, Ancelotti wants to recall him to his staff for a second training and transformation.

Of course, another aspect is that Ancelotti intends to put some pressure on the striker.

Give these forward players a sense of pressure that is enough to threaten their main position. Only in this way will these guys participate more actively in training and their game performance will improve accordingly.

August 14, Madrid Airport.

A small business plane arrived at the airport.

Pato stepped off the plane wearing new clothes and a hip-hop hat.

He faced the media with a bright smile, waved his arms, and walked out of the airport.

"This is a new challenge for me. La Liga is still very unfamiliar to me, but I will adapt to the rhythm of the game here as soon as possible and at the same time contribute to the club."

"Of course, I believe I will perform well, just like the brilliance we created together with Suker, Kaká and me in Milan."

Facing reporters, Pato talked freely.

What was once a little country dog ​​has now taken on a whole new look.

Both his dressing and conversation became more appropriate, but Su Ke looked at the TV, his dirty eyes constantly glancing at the beautiful passengers and reporters around him.

“A dog can’t change its habit of eating shit!”

Suk couldn't help but complain.

Kaka on the side also smiled and shook his head.

On the other side, Pato has begun various inspections under the leadership of Real Madrid staff.

Finally, at the signing ceremony, Florentino came forward in person.

Pato's transfer capital is 65 million euros, but his real value is far more than that.

Real Madrid paid through other methods to make up for Pato's transfer fee.

But for Real Madrid, this is also a very good deal.

After all, Pato is also a core player of AC Milan, and his ability is obvious.

Of course, whether Pato can adapt to the rhythm of the game in Real Madrid is another topic.

As for the issue of overstaffing at the front.

Real Madrid is not afraid of this. They are eager to form another super team to fight on two or even three fronts.

After completing a series of ceremonies, Pato officially joined Real Madrid.

That night, he ran to Suk's house.

"Surprise~~~"

Pato knocked on Suk's door with a bottle of red wine in his hand.

Suk took the red wine and let Pato in.

After Pato came in, he also saw Suqi.

After all, he was curious.

After all, it was hard for Pato to imagine how Suk raised a child with such a personality.

But from the first sight, Suqi was very well-behaved and polite.

He was far from the willful, irritable, and unreasonable little devil he imagined.

"Go! Go upstairs to play with Luna!"

Suk said simply.

Suqi immediately jumped off the sofa and ran upstairs.

Suker was sitting on the sofa carelessly, looking up at Pato: "What do you think?"

Pato scratched his cheek: "I just want to join Real Madrid! I want to play in a stronger team."

Suker: "From the core of Milan to the substitute of Real Madrid, you haven't even discussed the starting position. What does your agent do?"

Pato scratched his head awkwardly. In fact, his agent didn't agree, but Pato wanted to go to Real Madrid too much.

"Do you still have a dream of playing for Real Madrid?"

Suker asked.

"No, no, no!" Pato shook his head.

Suker was puzzled; "So, why do you want to join Real Madrid?"

Pato was silent for a moment, he walked around to the front of the sofa and sat down.

"I'm not happy playing in Milan!"

Suker raised his eyebrows.

"You are a transfer player led by Galliani. The top management doesn't support you?"

"No! They support me very much."

"Then why are you unhappy?"

Pato pursed his lips: "I feel too much pressure."

Suker rolled his eyes: "Professional players will have pressure."

"It's different." Pato shook his head; "When I became the core player of Milan, I was really happy. Sufficient tactical resources and enough voice have given me a lot of privileges!"

"But because of these privileges, I will have more obligations!"

"The top management has high expectations of me, the fans have high expectations of me, and even my teammates rely on me very much."

"My performance determines the outcome of the game."

"Winning is because of me, and losing is also because of me!"

Pato exhaled a long breath and looked up at Suker: "I tried to overcome these pressures, tried to play like you, and tried to be the pillar of Milan, but... I'm not that kind of material!"

"I'm going crazy! Before the key game, I couldn't sleep. I was always worried about gains and losses. I had to constantly simulate the possible situations in the game in my mind. situation, but no matter what you do, you can never satisfy people. "

"So I'm not happy playing, I can't bear the pressure, and I don't want to bear the pressure anymore."

After a pause, Pato continued; "I started to think back to when I was happiest, and I found that when I first joined Milan, that was when I was happiest. "

"Someone withstood the pressure, and someone told me what to do. Regarding this issue, I also specifically asked the old captain (Ambrosini)!" Pato grinned; "He said, I'm a coward!"

"But if you're a coward, then be a coward , I just want to play football happily. "

Suker shook his head: "Coward!"

Pato: "Anyway, I don't want to bear this pressure anymore, for me and for my future children."

Suker turned his head; "You have a shit child!"

"That's why!" Pato suddenly became excited. He stood up, pointed at his crotch, and said angrily; "It's wrong! The doctor said it was caused by pressure. Now I can only look at it, not use it! Do you think I'm frustrated?"

Suker: "."

The next day, Pato officially entered the Real Madrid training base for training.

Here, he has the big brothers Suker and Kaka to protect him, and the help of national team teammates such as Marcelo, so there is no problem integrating into the team.

Ancelotti also likes Pato very much.

With the care of these three people, Pato felt that the pressure on his shoulders was like a mountain, and it was immediately poured out.

In the first training after joining Real Madrid, Pato showed an outstanding performance.

Scored two goals.

"He has a fast start, excellent dribbling speed and shooting skills." Zidane nodded. Pato is indeed a strong player on the bench.

This can increase the tactical depth of Real Madrid, and even help Suker and Bale share the pressure of multi-line operations.

Especially Suker!

Suker has been present for two consecutive seasons. This high-intensity use may eventually ruin Suker.

Ancelotti is very worried that Suker's state will suddenly drop due to high-intensity competitions.

After all, Suker is now 27 years old!

There are only three years left before the 30-year-old mark. If there is another major injury, the problem will be very serious.

Therefore, Ancelotti plans to let Suker play more easily this season.

It is not like the previous two seasons, big and small competitions, no matter how important or not, have to stand on the front line.

At the same time, Ancelotti also talked to Bale.

Inform Pato's situation and arrangements.

To put it bluntly, Pato is not Bell's substitute, but Suker's substitute.

This is for Su Ke to use for rotation.

After hearing these words, Bell also breathed a sigh of relief, and most of his inner uneasiness disappeared.

But you should still be nervous. After all, Pato can play on the right side. If he doesn't perform well, he can be replaced at any time.

As for Benzema, this guy still sits back and relaxes.

There is no way, it is really difficult to find a center like Benzema in today's football world.

Now is the era of transition from big center to functional center.

Many functional centers are beginning to appear and emerge.

But their ability and performance cannot be compared with Benzema, and they can't even find a decent substitute.

In this position, the one who can compete with Benzema to a certain extent is probably the future 'uncrowned king' Harry Kane.

However, this brother is really miserable!

Ballack was ridiculed as the 'second child of ten thousand years', but at least he had won a decent trophy.

But Harry Kane, he really doesn’t have one!

"How did I play?" Pato asked excitedly.

Since joining Real Madrid, he has felt that his pressure has been released, and his overall condition has improved to a certain extent.

At least when playing in Real Madrid, no one will turn to Pato when encountering difficulties.

He's a piece of shit!

Suke is the real thigh!

"So-so!" Su Ke said casually.

Kaka on the side couldn't help but smile.

It is really difficult for Su Ke to praise Pato.

However, Pato's growth is obvious to all. Under Milan's core treatment over the years, although he ultimately failed to withstand the pressure and became a deserter.

But this guy's ability is worthy of recognition.

It cannot be said that one battle can determine the outcome, but it can also help and diversify the overall tactics.

"Suke! It's your turn!"

Zidane came over and said.

Su Ke nodded immediately and walked into the stadium.

After Suker entered the court, the faces of Ramos, Pepe, Srna and other main defenders on the opposite side became terrible.

No one likes to be abused!

But today's Real Madrid striker's penetration and advancement capabilities are too strong.

Especially Suk's positioning.

Attack initiator, attack finisher, organizer, metronome, final pass, and even steals in the frontcourt. Switching between multiple roles is simply impossible to guard against.

After Su Ke came on the field, the coaches around him also cheered up and began to record various data.

The push started from the first moment Suker got the ball.

Su Ke dribbled horizontally from the left penalty area line.

There are supports at both ends, and Su Ke's dribbling ability makes the main defenders constantly move back and forth.

I want to do it, but I don’t dare!

Retreat, but we can't let Su Ke shoot!

During the stalemate, Suker suddenly stepped on the ball on the spot, pulled his body forward, and pulled Pepe away.

Pepe had just recovered and wanted to turn around.

Cross had already pushed the ball forward and accurately found Benzema who was advancing forward, assisting and scoring.

"I told you, you can't keep staring at Su Ke!"

"What can I do if I don't stare? Let him shoot?"

"Shovel him! Just shovel him!"

Even the calm Srna could not help but become violent.

The defenders were originally passive, but now that they were surrounded by Su Ke, they seemed to have become fools.

If you are unable to make accurate predictions, you can only continue to be consumed until you lose the ball.

But who can guarantee that prediction will always work?

"Well done!" Ancelotti couldn't help but praise.

The striker combination has gradually shown its form, and now it just needs to continue to consolidate.

But this kind of thing needs to be accumulated through games, so he is not in a hurry.

After the start of the new season, there are many opportunities in the first half of the season.

Of course, the premise is that no one jumps ahead.

“Any updates on Atlético Madrid?”

Ancelotti asked his son.

Since Zidane became assistant coach, Ancelotti's son Davide has been in charge of information collection and technical analysis.

David shook his head and said: "There is still no news."

Ancelotti couldn't help curling his lips; "It's really annoying!"

Since Real Madrid and Barcelona held private training sessions, Atletico Madrid followed suit and did not disclose any information.

However, judging from some clues and the scores revealed in the warm-up match, Atletico Madrid should be in good shape now.

But what a good method is, Ancelotti also doesn’t know.

We can only wait for the start of the league and use specific games to observe.

Phew~~~~

Ancelotti raised his head slightly and looked up at the clear sky.

There are only two days left before Real Madrid starts the new season.

The flames of La Liga in the 2013/2014 season will also be ignited!

In addition, there is the Champions League in September.

These all require Ancelotti's attention.

This is also a brand new challenge for him!

On August 18th, the new season started.

The opening match of the first round will be played by Real Sociedad VS Getafe.

Real Madrid's game is scheduled for 3 p.m.

They will face Real Betis at home.

But before that, in the match at 1pm, Barcelona scored an amazing score in the first leg.

They slaughtered Levante 7:0 at home!

Rakitic assisted Sanchez to score a goal just 3 minutes into the game.

Since then, Messi, Alves, Pedro and Xavi have scored.

In this game, Messi and Pedro both scored two goals and one assist, but Messi was awarded the best player of the game.

Barcelona's performance in the first leg was surprising.

Maybe Levante was not in good shape, but the score was too extreme.

But in Ancelotti's view, this signal was not very good.

This may be a signal of "jumping the gun".

However, Ancelotti did not change his plan and still prepared for the game according to the original tactical guidelines.

Focus on the Bernabeu Stadium.

Many people are curious whether Real Madrid will also show an explosive performance and kill Real Betis at home after a slaughter show in Barcelona.
