. For a long time, there will always be many fans, and it is the back that makes the Galaxy Battleship completely collapse in the first phase, because it is the departure of Makelele that causes the collapse of Real Madrid's overall offensive and defensive system. {xiaoshuoyd/.text}

But in Yang Cheng's view, this is somewhat incomplete, Makelele is an outstanding defensive back, but it certainly did not reach that level, many fans because of his departure from Real Madrid, resulting in the collapse of the Galaxy Battleship in the first phase, joining Chelsea, directly creating the Blues to win the championship, so subconsciously feel that Makelele is too amazing and great.

He's a midfielder superstar, but he's not there yet!

In fact, Real Madrid has a position where the problem is more serious than that of the midfield, and that is the central defender!

In Real Madrid, which has always been known for attacking, the central defender has always been a thankless role, it is the responsibility to lose, it is the credit of the attacker to win, and the style of the whole team tends to attack, which makes the defender in Real Madrid have always had to bear huge tactical pressure.

If Real Madrid has been strained in the midfield position since 03 because of the departure of Claude Makelele, then Real Madrid's personnel changes at central defender can definitely be traced back to ten years ago, or even longer.

With the aging of the old captain Sanches and the absence of form, Hierro alone supported the banner of Real Madrid's central defender, but Hierro is not a full-time defender, in fact, he was a midfielder known for attacking in the early stage, but later with the increase of age, the position began to gradually move back, Baldano transformed him into a central defender.

But Hierro's partner has never been fixed. Karanka, Campo, Julio? Cesar, Elgra......

One of the most beautiful tactical changes of Bosque's career was in the 99/00 season, when he put Elgra in the center of the defence, responsible for coordinating and directing the defence, and played the 532 three-centre-back tactic, which made Real Madrid's backline solid, not only out of the mire of almost relegation in the league, but also won the Champions League in 2000.

But after Florentino came to power, he tended to attack more sharply. Figo, Zidane and other superstars have come to the team, and the Zidane + Pavon policy has pushed the team's tactics to a deformity, and then Pavon, Ruwen, Messia, Woodgate, Samuel and other players have become tragic roles in Real Madrid's central defenders.

In fact, sometimes you have to look at it this way, Campo was Spain's brightest central defender when he was in Mallorca, and he was favored by countless professionals, but he fell at Real Madrid; Elgra was once solid at centre-back, but he was later criticized; Samuel's performance in Serie A is almost world-class, but when it comes to Real Madrid, it has become a negative teaching material.

Ultimately. Real Madrid's problem is also a problem of the team's style.

The Spanish team has always advocated attacking, and Real Madrid is one of the best, especially after the frequent introduction of superstars, the wild attack has become the label of Real Madrid, but the price of this is that the team is polarized in attack and defense, and there is no buffer.

As early as when Yang Cheng decided to take charge of Real Madrid, he had already said a word to Heathfield and Beckenbauer. "It's going to be so far in my career. The biggest challenge! ”

Why?

Because Real Madrid is almost full of holes at present, in addition to the goal line, the defenders, midfielders and forwards, the three lines are extremely incomplete, although there are Raul, Xavi? Alonso, Guti and others, but can they alone?

Therefore, when Yang Cheng took charge of Real Madrid, he had already made the idea of overthrowing the entire Real Madrid system and rebuilding the organization, and the first thing he had to do was to establish an offensive and defensive system for Real Madrid.

That's why he's here. The reason why it will take at least two or three years to lead Real Madrid back to the rise of Europe! ..., Ramos and Thiago? Silva is the future of the team, but they simply can't use it for the time being, so Yang Cheng had to find a centre-back combination for Real Madrid, so he set his sights on Juventus, who are about to be relegated.

Although it was only a presentation of the new jersey, Real Madrid is Real Madrid after all, and it still attracted a lot of reporters and media.

The club's president, Florentino, and honorary president, Di Stefano, were also present at Valdebebas for the jersey showcase. Head. Adidas also attaches great importance to this, and they specially arranged for some male and female models to come to the scene and wear Real Madrid jerseys to show.

But it is clear that the real focus of journalists is not on the new jerseys, for them to come. Adidas designs a new jersey for Real Madrid every year, which is nothing new. They are more concerned about the news coming out of Italy.

"Mr. Yang Cheng, Mr. Yang Cheng!!"

"Can you answer us a few questions?".

After the jersey display was over, reporters immediately surrounded them, blocking Florentino, Di Stefano, Yang Cheng and others, blocking them in front of the show, and the microphone was almost stuffed into their mouths, hoping that they could say a few words, or confirm some rumors.

After feeling Florentino's eyes, Yang Cheng looked at the watch on his left wrist and nodded, "I can give you 10 minutes!" ”

A group of reporters below immediately cheered, and they all gathered around.

Florentino accompanied Di Stéfano to leave first, but he looked back at Yang Cheng from time to time, and sighed in his heart that the biggest superstar introduced by Real Madrid this season is Yang Cheng, even if it is the introduction of Zidane, the introduction of Beckham and others can not be comparable to him.

"Mr. Yang Cheng, there is news that Real Madrid has reached a tacit agreement with Juventus, and they plan to package and introduce the World Cup Silver Ball winner Cannavaro and the core of the French defense Thuram, is it true?"

Yang Cheng nodded, "Yes, I am indeed very interested in them. ”

"At the moment Juventus have a price tag of 10 million + 5 million euros, do you think it is possible for these two players to switch to Real Madrid?".

Yang Cheng nodded again, "I'm pretty sure." They belong to Real Madrid! ”

All the reporters were in an uproar, could it be that there was the latest development of the transfer?

Without waiting for them to react, Yang Cheng continued: "We have reached a tacit understanding with Juventus, and we have also signed an agreement with the player's agent, I believe that in a few days, we can see Cannavaro and Thuram in the big team that goes to Austria for training!" ”

Many reporters at the scene were quite surprised, after all, Thuram and Cannavaro are two of the best central defenders in the World Cup. Although he is not old, he must still have the strength, among which Thuram was also chased by Barcelona, but the core of the French defense switched to Real Madrid, which had to be a big strengthening of the strength of Real Madrid's backline.

"Letting go of stars such as Carlos and Baptista, and bringing in defensive players like Cannavaro and Thuram, does this mean that Real Madrid under the coaching of Mr. Yang Cheng will become more balanced?"

Yang Cheng smiled. "That's fine, but I have to warn you that balance doesn't mean we don't attack!"

"I know very well what Real Madrid fans think, because I'm a Real Madrid fan myself, so I can understand their feelings, but I also know very well that it's not realistic for Real Madrid to play beautiful and sexy football all at once, it takes time."

"Attacking and defending, these are the two indispensable ideas in football tactics, blindly chasing attack, and blindly chasing defense, can lead to team failure, so we have to be inclusive of the two, but I will never change my pursuit of attacking football." …,

"I think, Real Madrid under the coach. What will be the biggest change? ”

"Team!" Yang Cheng didn't think about it, and replied directly, "I believe that fans all over the world will see a Real Madrid, whether it is offensive or defensive, it is a team fight, this is the trend of football, we must say goodbye to the past era of relying on the individual ability of superstars." Rediscover our Real Madrid team spirit! ”

Another reporter squeezed his head out of the cracks and shouted: "Mr. Yang Cheng, Cruyff is in his column, Real Madrid is different from any team he has coached before, and he will encounter the Battle of Waterloo here." Any thoughts? ”。

"Uh...... I don't think I need anything because every team I coach is different. Chemnitz, Kaiserslautern, Inter Milan and Liverpool, it's all different, but I've all succeeded, so I'm sure I'll be successful at Real Madrid too! ”

After a pause, Yang Cheng laughed, "I remember, Cruyff, Barcelona is his pride and the best interpreter of his football philosophy, then my biggest goal and wish when I come to La Liga is to kick Barcelona off the championship and end Barcelona's domination of La Liga, and at the same time, I want to return all the humiliation they brought to us at the Bernabeu Stadium, and we will avenge last season at Camp Nou!" ”

In last season's Bernabeu Century Derby, Barcelona defeated Real Madrid 3-0 away, Real Madrid fans witnessed Ronaldinho's god-like performance, they were conquered by Ronaldinho, and Real Madrid completely lost the competition for the league title.

If Yang Cheng's goal this season is to focus on La Liga, then the derby of the century with Barcelona and the La Liga title are the two major battles he must work on, and his goal in the Champions League is to break through.

He doesn't want his Real Madrid to continue defending their last-16 title, and he wants to make a breakthrough in his results.

…………

…………

After getting rid of the reporters, Yang Cheng ran into Piri as soon as he walked out, and the latter gave him the phone numbers of Cannavaro and Thuram, and Yang Cheng planned to have a good chat with them first to confirm the time when they would return to the team.

But these things will definitely have to wait until noon, at least the second training session will start soon.

Like Yang Cheng's previous training sessions, each training session is still 90 minutes, there is still a lot of training with the ball, and the training intensity is still very high, which can always torture the players to the bitterness.

In the next two or three days, Real Madrid was more focused on recovery and physical reserve training because of the incomplete lineup, but the team's transfer was still ongoing, among which Sicineo joined AC Milan for 16 million euros as he wished, but Ancelotti still refused to let go of Kaka.

Therefore, Yang Cheng couldn't take Kaka and Luo after seeing it. Work began on bringing in another player.

However, he left the transfer to Butragueno and Piri, who was in charge of remote control, and all his energy was devoted to a more important task, which was to build the team's overall tactical framework.

This is not just a matter of Yang Cheng alone, Redondo, Benitez, Paul? Bayer and others were involved.

…………

…………

"According to the traditional offensive tactical thinking, a set of tactical framework is composed of two elements, the core and the propulsion!"

After the lunch break, in the coach's office, Benitez seemed to be a little unsure of Yang Cheng's thoughts. At least he couldn't see how Yang Cheng was going to implement his tactical reforms at Real Madrid.

"Advance, I see, David? Silva and Juan Mata's dribbling forwards, David Beckham and Xavi? Alonso's long pass transfer can complete the task of advancement, and if not, we can take the forward retreat route, as long as it revolves around these points. There is no problem with the team's attack, but where is the core? ..., this is not only Benitez's doubt, but also Paul? The confusion of Baier and Redondo and others.

From Kaiserslautern to Inter Milan to Liverpool, Yang Cheng's tactics are all based on a very traditional formation model, that is, around the core and promotion to build, the most obvious is Liverpool's Drogba, he is a very important core of Liverpool's promotion.

However, Real Madrid do not see such a core at the moment. Neither Villa nor Raul are the kind of strong strikers who charge up front. Negredo and Soldado are indeed center forwards, especially the former, but the problem is that they are both young and it is too dangerous to play around them.

When he saw everyone looking at him, Yang Cheng smiled slightly and nodded, acknowledging Benitez's suspicions. After thinking about it, he said: "Actually, from Inter Milan to Liverpool, I have been thinking about a question, that is, if a team's midfield attack does not have a core, how to play? ”

Benitez and Paul? When Bayer heard this, he couldn't help frowning. Because who doesn't play the core of football now?

Liverpool's core is varied, most of the time it is Drogba, but Robben and Ronaldo also play this responsibility, and even Gerrard in the back row can be regarded as the core, so they have a lot of attacking means. It's unpredictable.

Barcelona has also seen a lot of changes. Ronaldinho and Samuel Eto'o, for example, as well as Giuli and Messi on the right, have also occasionally taken on this role.

The so-called core, in fact, is not necessarily a bridgehead like Drogba, if you want to understand it simply, it is to be the center, that is, a player who can receive the ball and pass the ball in the front court, because such players generally have excellent individual ability, and after getting the ball, they are generally their own goal or the last pass, and the range that can radiate is directly linked to the player's ability, awareness and vision.

Yang Cheng's AC Milan in his previous life was a very obvious tactic, Pirlo retreated to organize, Kaka was in front of the attacking core, his dribbling and high-speed breakthrough after passing, as well as his own back to score, all ensured AC Milan's attack.

The reason why Yang Cheng asked to buy a card is actually because he sees that his breakthrough in the middle can tear apart the opponent's defense, create chaos, and create gaps for his teammates around, of course, Kaka will not be the core when he comes, because what Yang Cheng really wants is a non-nuclear tactic.

There is now a team in La Liga that is a typical team that plays the core of the attack, and that is Villarreal.

Of course, different teams have different changes, and the core is not single, such as Liverpool, they can spread four or five points at once in the front field at most, so their attack will be so terrible.

But this is certainly not the most terrible, because there is a core, the opponent can limit the attack through the limited core, so theoretically, the core is a double-edged sword, once it works well, the attack will become smooth, but once it is frozen, then sorry, the attack will completely collapse.

Everyone who fights Villarreal knows that Riquelme must be restricted, and that's the reason!

And what if there is no core?

Theoretically, an offense without a core will be more difficult to defend than an offense with a core, because you don't know who to defend against, so without a core can also be seen as everyone is a core.

Strictly speaking, Liverpool are very close to this level, because at that time their attacking core was as many as 5 points at most, that is, almost the entire midfield can be the core, but more often, Liverpool still rely on individual players such as Drogba.

What Yang Cheng has to do now is not to tailor a set of tactics around these current players, but to hope that by forming a set of offensive routines without a core, and then arranging tasks according to the technical characteristics of the players, the players can play in this set of tactics. ..., "No core? "Benitez is in the eye, Paul? Bayer was thinking with a bitter face, obviously they were all stabbed by Yang Cheng's words.

"Is this possible?". Redondo asked with a wry smile.

Yang Cheng nodded and smiled, "Maybe, absolutely possible!" ”

Benitez also nodded, "Theoretically, the role of the core is to press and tear apart the opponent's defense, but if this responsibility can be divided among each player, then the core does not exist, or it can, everyone is the core." ”

After a pause, the Spaniard shook his head, "But it can't be, because without a core, the team's attack can easily lose direction, the players will become confused with each other, and the whole offensive strategy will completely collapse." ”

The reason why the presence of the core on the field is necessary is because everyone will revolve around the core, such as Liverpool, when Drogba is on the field, he basically chooses to attack around Drogba as soon as he gets the ball, and Drogba is also the kind of player who can be at the front and can complete the things that only two or three players can do.

But just after Benitez finished, a thought immediately flashed in his mind, that is, if every player in the midfield has an outstanding ball quotient, can find holes in the opponent's defense in the process of running and transferring, once someone finds it, everyone else can unite and cooperate, and immediately attack around this player, then Yang Cheng's idea may become a reality.

Because isn't Liverpool very close to that?! ……，
