Chapter 1005: Endless Quest

Sometimes tactics and ideas that stay on paper cannot be put into practice.

For example, many teams are fighting Barcelona's style of play, but none of them can reach the height of Barcelona, even Bayern Munich has unconsciously added some of its own characteristics.

There are also many teams that have learned from Chelsea to put the bus, but the problem is that the bus looks good, but in fact it is also very knowledgeable, and Chelsea can put the bus out of the Champions League, can other teams do it?

Therefore, the execution of any tactics still depends on the players on the field.

Jose Mourinho also tried to implement his tactical ideas when he was at Real Madrid, but he failed because his spirit did not match the spirit of Real Madrid and could not succeed.

The same way to deal with Lin Yu now, many people can think of excellent ideas, but if they are really used in reality, most of them will still fail, keep trying, keep failing, this is the rhythm.

It feels like European football is currently looking for a way to deal with Lin Yu like the name of a game - "Endless Quest".

It's a task that never seems to find an answer, always working on it, but never scratching its head.

……

Klopp turned off the TV, then took out his laptop and logged on to the website, he had just finished watching the expert discussion program on TV on how to deal with Lin Yu, only to be disappointed.

I heard that the discussion on the Internet was very hot, and he also planned to take a look, anyway, he couldn't think of an effective way to deal with Lin Yu now, so he learned some experience and ideas from the Internet. It's not necessarily a no-no.

This football forum is very professional, in the post discussing Lin Yu. The content is already very detailed, with data, charts, photos, curves, and the running of almost every game since Lin Yu came to Real Madrid.

Anyway, in this most discussed post on the Internet at the moment. You can find all the detailed information about Lin Yu.

Even includes Lin Yu's family, girlfriend, and living habits.

Some fans suggested that since they couldn't affect Lin Yu on the court, they should use reality to influence Lin Yu.

What's more, he even put forward the idea of simply kidnapping Lin Yu's relatives to force Lin Yu to make concessions.

Anyway, in order to defeat Lin Yu, all kinds of people appeared, and all kinds of strange ideas emerged one after another.

Klopp naturally doesn't do that kind of despicable thing, he's not that kind of person. Second, he also felt that it was boring, in order to defeat his own disciples, to do something that was intolerable, was it really necessary?

This is not an underworld novel.

Looking at the new reply, Klopp felt a little bored, not that the fans couldn't come up with good ideas, but that some ideas were too naïve, too ridiculous, completely unrealistic and illogical.

For example, a Barcelona fan advised: "It's easy to beat Real Madrid. Just spend money to buy Lin Yu. ”

This is indeed a good idea, but Klopp knows that it will not work at all, the current Lin Yu is not short of money, and the current Real Madrid is not short of money. Even Manchester City, which has an oil daddy, can't compare with Real Madrid who is richer.

What's more, Klopp wants to beat Lin Yu, not Real Madrid. It's kind of a hairy thing to buy it.

Someone else joked, "Actually, the way to defend Lin Yu is very simple, only two steps are enough." The first step is to buy a defender with defensive ability to complete Lin Yu's offensive ability; Step 2. Send him to start the game to keep an eye on Lin Yu. ”

Klopp directly hehe, not to mention that there is no such person, even if there is really such a person, it is estimated that Real Madrid will buy it directly at a high price, in terms of financial strength, Barcelona still can't be compared with Real Madrid.

……

Klopp didn't find a way to defend Lin Yu hard, but he didn't give up, he felt that in the next game, in fact, he didn't have to care too much about Lin Yu, he could send someone to mark and interfere as much as possible, but he couldn't prevent it, so he relied on the goal of his own side of the player to equalize the score.

So Klopp's idea is to play against Real Madrid, and it just so happens that this national derby is played at the Camp Nou, compared to Real Madrid, Barcelona has the advantage of playing at home, and Klopp hopes that this advantage can be converted into goals or wins.

He deliberately downplayed the duel between Lin Yu and Messi at the pre-match press conference, but in the locker room, he inadvertently conveyed a meaning to Messi: "Lin Yu is the strongest player I have ever coached!" ”

How can Messi be convinced by such a statement? So he was also completely irritated by Klopp's agitation, and he will definitely be seen by Real Madrid in the next game.

However, he also understands that the enemy of his game is not Lin Yu, but the back line of Real Madrid, he can temporarily abandon the idea of competing with Lin Yu, and get a victory at his home stadium, otherwise he will always be pressed on the head by Lin Yu, and that feeling is really uncomfortable.

……

Before the game, the media was still hyping the battle between Lin Yu and Messi's scorer list, at present, Lin Yu's league goals are twenty-three, and Messi is nineteen, there is a gap of four goals between the two people, but four goals seems to be a lot, in fact, for Messi, it is really nothing, if he plays well, he is likely to pull this gap back in one game.

You must know that many teams in La Liga are not used to Lin Yu's arrogant personality, but like Messi's low-key, so when they are playing, they would rather open the door to Barcelona and Messi, let Messi catch up with Lin Yu, and when they are against Real Madrid, they will obstruct Lin Yu in every way.

So Messi's goals this season have become much easier, and it is really possible to compete with Lin Yu for the position of the scorer list.

In the past, Messi had to refute Lin Yu a few words, but now, Messi is even more taciturn than before, and he is a little low-key and scary. Just one goal after another, trying to catch up. Even surpass Lin Yu.

Sometimes he didn't understand very much, why wouldn't Lin Yu, who was so arrogant, be punished by God? It stands to reason. Arrogant people will inevitably have the embarrassment of slapping themselves in the face, but this has never appeared in Lin Yu, Messi really can't understand what is helping Lin Yu in the dark.

Of course, he won't understand that in order to maintain his arrogant qualifications, Lin Yu's training volume is generally three to four times that of ordinary players, and all of them are high-quality training, and the training in the ball king cultivator is completely beyond the comprehension of others.

When he heard Klopp praise Lin Yu as the best player in the world. I was very unhappy, but I couldn't say a reason to refute it.

So he now has an idea, since the first leg of the national derby between Real Madrid and Barcelona is coming, then beating Real Madrid at the Camp Nou and beating Lin Yu will not only allow Klopp to change that opinion, but also really raise his head.

Otherwise, even if he tries hard to chase Lin Yu's goals, if Barcelona is beaten by Real Madrid every season, it will be meaningless.

After all, whether a player is important to a team or not. It's not just about individual performances, it's about how much it helps the team.

……

Zidane is no stranger to Barcelona, having played against Barcelona as a player, and later with Jose Mourinho, Carlo Ancelotti, Lippi and Barcelona. After he became the manager, he has already played several matches against Barcelona, so he faces this team. He's actually no stranger to it at all.

Messi will be the starter, and he has long guessed it. So this one is no surprise. It's just that other coaches are afraid of Lin Yu, and he is also a little jealous of Messi's ability. Especially this season, Messi's state is so good that it is almost impossible to completely prevent Messi from death.

Therefore, before the game, he told Lin Yu, "The team needs your goals, this game is not easy to play, so everything depends on you!" ”

He can only bet on Lin Yu, because Real Madrid's backline is not very reliable except for Varane, not that the ability is not good, but it feels a little nervous.

Ramos is so.

Pepe is so.

The same is true for Luiz, who has come in as a new transfer.

So it's almost impossible for Real Madrid not to concede a goal against Barcelona, unless Barcelona themselves don't perform well.

But Zidane can't always pin his hopes of winning on the performance of the opponent, he wants to win this game, the best way is that you score one goal, I will score two goals, so as to ensure that the goal is superior.

Speaking of midfield, we're much better than you at Barcelona.

However, at the beginning of the game, Zidane was still a little surprised, and Klopp actually played a strange formation today.

In the past, Messi played in the middle, but in today's game, Klopp put Messi on the side, handed over to Cesc Fabregas in the middle, and Neymar on the other side.

Because of this change of formation, some of Zidane's pre-game arrangements were wrong, and Luiz, who was originally arranged to mark Messi in the middle, was a bit contradictory, and he didn't know whether to target Fabregas or go to the side to target Messi.

At this time, Zidane also lost his cool a little, he did not give Luis instructions, so Luis honestly stayed in his middle to defend Fabregas, after all, there are Carvajal and Marcelo on the side, although Neymar and Messi often change positions, but most of the two are on the side, he is a central defender, and he can't grab the fullback's job, which will cause chaos.

But the problem is clear to everyone, Carvajal and Marcelo are both defensive players who are strong in attack and weak in defense, Marcelo faces Messi, just like Pepe who was beaten by Lewandowski and Ramos who was beaten by Ronaldinho.

After just three minutes, Marcelo lost his defensive position and was penetrated by a counterattack by Messi.

Messi is not easy to shoot from a distance, but it does not mean that he will not shoot from a distance, after passing Marcelo, Messi made a clever shot on the side, directly let the ball draw an arc, and finally hit the corner.

"Oh, oh! This goal actually went in! Casillas, what are you doing! "Sergio. Durant covered his head in annoyance and shouted, in fact, from his point of view, Casillas should be able to get this ball, but speaking of which, it is really not the fault of the Real Madrid captain, it is obvious that Marcelo lost his position and was caught by Messi.

So Durant then criticized: "Marcelo should be responsible for the lost ball, his task today is not to attack, but to let go of Messi, even if it is a foul, the ball just now was directly erased by Messi, and then what is even more infuriating is that he actually stood there and did not chase!" That's why I said, I really shouldn't have sold Coentrão in the first place, after all, when you meet a team like Barcelona, you still need a reliable defensive full-back. ”

No matter what the commentary says about this goal, anyway, the ball was scored, Messi glanced at Lin Yu proudly, and then looked at Klopp in the coach's seat, and that look was obviously expressing a meaning, "Didn't you say that I was inferior to Lin Yu?" See, I'm the one who broke the deadlock, and I'm going to take back my number one spot at Camp Nou today. ”

scored a goal, Messi was also very excited, his celebration is usually not very big, but this time, he actually came up to a slip kneeling on the court, and then roared excitedly.

It seems that this kid was really forced by Lin Yu to be a little unable to keep calm. (To be continued......)
