872 Final step

In the business world, there is a popular saying that the rich are the uncle!

Now that the whole world is mired in an economic crisis, all the European giants are doing very bleakly, and they generally adopt a strategy of indentging the monetary roots, or are more pragmatic, abandoning the transfer investment of the past in pursuit of high fame and high attention, and instead choose the more cost-effective strategy. **

In fact, this situation can be seen as early as the summer transfer of 2010, if it were not for the sky-high price of Barcelona to buy Torres, the entire summer transfer of 2010 can be said to be very average, more than 10 million transfers are getting fewer and fewer, and the transfer market is getting more and more flat.

But after entering the winter break, the transfer market is gradually buzzing.

The first is that Liverpool brought in Suarez from Ajax for 26.5 million euros, hoping that the striker can further strengthen the Reds' attacking power, and this transfer has become Liverpool's largest payment in recent years.

Manchester City brought in Dzeko from Wolfsburg at a price of 32 million euros, and the wealthy Abu Dhabi consortium began to exert force, and the team is currently interested in three stars of Barcelona, and it is reported that the owner behind Manchester City is willing to provide a sky-high transfer fee of up to 200 million euros for the three superstars of Messi, Iniesta and Alves.

Chelsea are eyeing Barcelona's Alves, who Mourinho has long wanted to further strengthen his side on the right flank, but it is said that the madman is only asking for 25 million euros. There is a huge gap from the price of Alves joining Barcelona that year. But who has put Barcelona in a financial crisis at the moment?

The opening of Barcelona's star supermarket became the biggest hit in the winter break transfer market, but unfortunately, even after the winter break, no one managed to take the player away from the Camp Nou.

It was not until the morning of February 1, after the end of the winter break, that Barcelona's official statement said that it had not received offers from any club other than Manchester City, and Barcelona officials stated that the team's situation was not as dangerous as the outside world had speculated. The club does not sell people to pay off debts.

"We have the ability to solve the debt burden!"

But that very afternoon, Iniesta's agent, that is, his father, José? Andres Iniesta coincidentally appeared in Madrid. This immediately made the media think wildly, and they all speculated that this was a prelude to Iniesta's transfer to Real Madrid.

"Andres is a Barcelona player, he belongs to Barcelona, he loves Barcelona, he has absolutely no idea of leaving Barcelona to switch to Manchester City, he wants to be able to retire from Barcelona because he loves the fans here, everything here!"

"I came to Madrid just to have something to do, and it has nothing to do with Andres's transfer!"

Interestingly. Messi's agent was also interviewed by reporters in Barcelona at about the same time, and Jorge said that his son has only one thought at the moment, which is to stay in Barcelona and continue to fight for Barcelona to win the championship.

"If Messi does leave Barcelona one day, it can only be a situation and the club needs him to leave, otherwise, he will always be loyal to Barcelona because he will not forget the help that this team has given him!"

The agents of these two superstars are indeed very interesting in terms of rhetoric. It was immediately interpreted by some media outlets.

How to plug it? Iniesta said that his son has absolutely no idea of joining Manchester City, which is tantamount to rejecting Manchester City's transfer request in disguise, but he appeared in Madrid so coincidentally, which will inevitably lead to reverie.

As for Messi's father. Jorge was the first to kick the transfer ball to the club, and he is now making a statement. Then even if Messi really transfers in the future, everyone will have an idea that Barcelona is going to sell people. ..., of course, it doesn't mean that they are heinous or betrayal, they are actually just protecting themselves, after all, in this real football world, there are many giant teams that take the initiative to sell their stars at the same time, but also to charge the other party with a traitor, which Messi and Iniesta are unwilling to accept.

After the statements of Barcelona and the players were announced, everyone began to target Madrid, but as a party, Real Madrid has always remained silent, refusing to answer any questions related to Messi and Iniesta, and at the same time, their own players have also been poached by their opponents.

Liverpool wants to get Mascherano from Yang Cheng's hands, the latter has gradually lost his main position in Real Madrid after the strong rise of De La Red, and now Real Madrid has a lot of talent in the midfield, Yang Cheng began to advocate more of two attacking midfielders, Mascherano is known for his defensive ability, hoping to find a team to prove his strength again.

Liverpool, with the team left by Yang Cheng back then, are a strong contender for the Premier League title every year, but this season with the increase in Essien's injuries, there have been some problems in the midfield configuration, and there is an urgent need to bring in a strong midfielder to partner Carrick, and Mascherano is seen as the most suitable candidate.

It's just that the captain of the Argentine national team is worth a lot of money, and if you want to get him, I'm afraid it can't be solved at a low price, and there are many potential contenders, at least Ferguson also values this defender.

After Bayern Munich took over Manuel Pellegrini, the team began to reorganize, and gradually formed a team with Gomez, Thomas? Mueller, Tony? Klos, Schweinsteiger, Deisler and others led the attacking midfield lineup, but Pellegrini is still not satisfied with the team's midfield creativity and wants to bring in Ozil from Real Madrid.

Pellegrini personally called Yang Cheng before, on the one hand, to express Yang Cheng's gratitude for his support, and on the other hand, to talk about Ozil's transfer, Yang Cheng gave the reply that he would come back in the summer, and the two sides reached a tacit understanding, and finally did not make the trip during the winter break.

In everyone's eyes, whether it is Mascherano or Mesut Ozil, they are not the most important players in Real Madrid. Opposite. can only be said to be a substitute, which cannot affect the overall situation of Real Madrid, but if it is true, as speculated, the fire sale of players is to make room for Messi and Iniesta, then there is no doubt that Real Madrid will become stronger next season.

However, the first problem for Yang Cheng to solve is the state of the team, especially in the last three rounds after the winter break, losing 4 points, which is for Real Madrid, who were in a state of strength before. It's not a big hurdle.

…………

…………

But if you are a handsome, there is a very important indicator that you will employ people!

When and what kind of people to use, these are very critical questions. Especially for a team.

In the 22nd round of the league at home against Real Sociedad, Yang Cheng's lineup surprised people.

The first is that the main right-back McCone is absent from the lineup, and he is replaced by Miguel, who has always performed in a decent manner? Fernando Torres, the Real Madrid academy youngster, appeared more as a substitute for McConn, but this game took his place.

The centre-back combination of De La Reed and Sergio Ramos is another surprising choice, but Thiago? Silva is injured, Pepe is out of form and made a mistake against Osasuna, but at least there is one Kompany. But Yang Cheng chose De La Red.

The midfielder is known as the new Redondo, but he plays more as a midfielder than at centre-back.

The combination of two midfielders became Xavi? Alonso and David? Silva, attacking the attacking attacking combination from left to right is Ronaldo, Kaka and Mata, and the single striker is neither the main striker Aguero nor Villa, but Klose. ..., it can be said that Yang Cheng's lineup surprised people from beginning to end.

But interestingly, just four minutes into the game, Real Madrid took the lead in breaking the deadlock on the pitch. Is it a kick from David? Silva's lethal through ball from the back easily tore through the Real Sociedad defence and set up Kaka's way into the box.

The back insertion of the Kaka looks relaxed, elegant, and struggling. There is neither his trademark wide-opening moves, nor any juggling details. It's very simple, stop and push in the penalty area, in one go, look indescribably chic and calm, and the ball rolls directly into the Real Sociedad goal.

But if you analyze it carefully, Klose has opened up space for Kaka's back insertion, and the effect is also extraordinary.

But that's clearly not the end of the story.

As the game progressed, everyone could find a very interesting phenomenon, that is, the change of position between Real Madrid's midfielders and central defenders, De La Reed often stepped forward to the front, Xavi? Alonso retreated to the backline, while David? Silva, on the other hand, moves between the midfielders and attacking defenders.

This makes Real Madrid's entire midfield seem difficult to figure out, but it runs in a very orderly manner.

In the 21st minute, after De La Red stepped forward, he received a pass from Marcelo on the left side, pressed the defender with his body and pushed it to Kaka, who took advantage of the situation to pick up a pass at the front of the penalty area, crossed the defense line, and fell to the left side.

Two goals in a row were spectacular and the fans at the Bernabeu couldn't help but see them.

In addition to these, Real Madrid's wonderful performance was also in a whole bunch of details in the game. Silva and Mata's delicacy, but also Xavi? Alonso's long pass, and the violence of Xiao Xiaoluo, also have the elegance of Kaka and De La Red.

After a period of adjustment, Real Madrid's state has obviously improved, and although it has changed formations, it still firmly controls the situation of the game.

In the second half, Real Madrid tore through Real Sociedad's defense with a round of furious attacks after the opening, scored three goals in a row, and defeated Real Sociedad 5:0 at home and won a brilliant victory.

"Real Madrid's performance in this game is very eye-catching, especially at the tactical level, not so much 4231, in fact, sometimes it is more like 3331, or even 3223, Xiao Xiao Luo and Mata are more into the opponent's 32-meter area, the role is more similar to a striker, especially Mata's inside cut on the right side, which plays a huge pulling role."

"Yang Cheng's current use of troops is becoming more and more unpredictable, and it is sometimes difficult for us to guess what he is thinking, De La Red plays at central defense, but he frequently intervenes, Xavi? Alonso, on the other hand, dropped back to play at centre-back, partnering Sergio Ramos. When the game is in such a situation. It's really wondering, what if the opponent fights back? ”

"Of course, Real Madrid's high-intensity midfield pressing and delaying tactics can effectively avoid the opponent's rapid counterattack, and De La Red's performance in this game is indeed good, but we still can't figure out what Yang Cheng's tactics are all about, or this is just a fresh attempt by Yang Cheng!"

To be able to play a fresh 5-0 attempt, I believe all the managers are happy to try it.

Today's Real Madrid is an object of learning and a benchmark for comparison. So when Yang Cheng's change in Real Madrid was revealed by the media, it immediately aroused the enthusiasm and analysis of countless football professionals, and they all agreed that in the game against Real Sociedad. Real Madrid played smoothly, the position was very fluid, it seemed loose, but in fact it was very orderly. ..., but on a professional tactical analysis website, someone broke the news that this is Yang Cheng's new tactics after Messi joined Real Madrid.

"If we change Mata's position to Messi, then the set of tactics is very clear!"

This revelation undoubtedly once again attracted speculation from fans and the media, but some people felt that this was purely a passive change of formation by Yang Cheng in the case of coping with the lack of physical fitness of the players. There is not much point in discussing.

As if to confirm this, Real Madrid took on Espanyol away after a week's rest.

This time, Yang Cheng once again changed the formation to the regular 4231 tactic, fully emphasizing the fluidity of the midfield, and in Barcelona, with the brace of Aguero and Xiao Xiaoluo, defeated Espanyol 4:1.

However, they managed to catch up with Real Madrid and fight for Barcelona, who were tied on points, but this time suffered a draw at the home of Sporting Gijón, and it was Messi's key goal in the end. Saved Barcelona and ended up in a 1-1 draw.

In this way, Real Madrid once again exceeded the score and turned it into 2 points, and enjoyed the position of the leader of La Liga.

February 19, 2011. In the 24th round of La Liga, Real Madrid hosted Levante.

Xiao Xiaoluo, who has scored consecutive goals, once again broke out with amazing strength. In the first half of this game, an overhead kick scored a hat-trick to give Real Madrid a 3-0 lead, and after the rematch in the second half, Real Madrid continued to maintain the advantage, and substitute Klose scored another goal for Real Madrid, 4-0.

Compared with Real Madrid's danger, Barcelona's situation is much more tragic.

Messi set up Fernando Torres to give Barcelona the lead just eight minutes into the game, but Athletic Bilbao's Llorente equalised for the Basque Lions just before the break.

In the second half, Athletic Bilbao significantly strengthened their defense and interceptions, causing a huge obstruction to Barcelona's attack, and the situation between the two sides was in a stalemate.

In midweek, Yang Cheng led the team to Lyon, where they defeated Ligue 1 powerhouses 1-0 away and won the initiative to advance.

On February 27, Real Madrid visited the Stadio Riazo to challenge Deportivo La Coruna.

Yang Cheng's side didn't hold back in the slightest, but Deportivo Deportivo defended very solidly at their home stadium and had a tenacious fighting spirit, and the two sides battled in the first half.

In the second half, Yang Cheng decisively made adjustments and took the lead in counterattacking after kick-off.

In the 48th minute, Villa took the lead in scoring for Real Madrid to break through Deportivo La Coruna's goal and take the lead.

But just four minutes later, Kaka's goal continued to extend Real Madrid's lead.

After back-to-back goals, Deportivo looked a little chaotic, and Real Madrid controlled the game steadily, in the 70th and 72nd minutes respectively, with the help of David? Goals from Silva and De La Rede gave Real Madrid a 4-0 win at Deportivo La Coruna.

With a number of consecutive games scoring in succession, Real Madrid's form has clearly improved a lot, especially after entering the second half of February, and the form has clearly recovered very well.

Barcelona was not far behind, beating Mallorca 3-0 away and continuing to bite Real Madrid.

But just three days after the end of the match, the Barcelona media were the first to break the news that the banks of Catalonia were discussing Barcelona's debt, because they believed that Barcelona was no longer able to repay it.

Ever since the debt crisis broke, Russell has been looking for a solution to the debt crisis, but it is clear that he has not found it, and the argument that the debt is not too much is obviously useless for the banks in Spain, because Barcelona has a number of valuable stars in the team that can be auctioned and sold. Soon, the media immediately followed suit and broke the phenomenon that Barcelona was in arrears with the players' wages, and the club's president Russell also stood up and said that Barcelona was indeed in arrears with the players' wages last month.

'At the moment the club is trying to solve the liquidity problem as soon as possible, it is the result of a long period of debt accumulation and we are solving the problem as soon as possible, but I have to make it clear that the club is not bankrupt at all, and Barcelona cannot go bankrupt because we are constantly generating revenue.

The club's official spokesperson also stood up and said, "All debts are under control, and we will take effective measures to eliminate the immediate tension, yes, just tension, not crisis!" ”

In response to the media's inquiry, the club's spokesman said that one is to get income, and the other is to negotiate a loan with the bank, and the club spokesman said that he did not know about the rumors that some banks have refused to release loans to Barcelona, but he can be sure that the club will solve the problem soon.

According to media reports, this time Barcelona is determined to sell the star of the house, raise funds in the shortest possible time, repay the bank loans and interest due, and pay the player's salary at the same time, because the situation has reached the final step.

Selling people can be said to be a foregone conclusion, the key is who to sell to! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
