Cruyff was not idle when he returned to Barcelona, quickly sorted out the content of his conversation with Hansen on the plane, and talked about his views on the current team in his newspaper column, believing that the team's current midfield players are full of good players, and it is a good time to return to the classic formation of 343 Barcelona. At the same time, he also said that January will be a very difficult month for Barcelona, on the one hand, the team has just finished the holiday and needs to readjust to the rhythm of the game, on the other hand, the Copa del Rey competition has also increased the burden on the players, which is a big test for the players' physical fitness.

January is known as the "Copa del Rey Month" in Spain. In addition to the 17th round of the league, the Copa del Rey quarter-finals will also play two away legs against Atletico Madrid, and if they can advance, Barcelona will have two Copa del Rey quarter-finals in late January. This is the equivalent of eight games to be played in January, and Barcelona will always maintain the high intensity of two games a week this month.

Cruyff said in his column that although January still can't decide what Barcelona can win, it can decide what Barcelona will lose, so this Barcelona can't be a little lax, otherwise the efforts of the first half of the season will be useless because of the negligence of this month.

Crazy January, which naturally forced Pep Guardiola to boldly implement rotation, once back at the club, Hansen knew that he and at least seven key players would not travel to Madrid for the first leg of the away game, and the main players who went away from home would not necessarily be available immediately. It can be seen that the center of gravity of the team. First of all, it's in the league. And Han Sen's first game of the New Year's League will usher in a special opponent at home. How special it can be, it is the Mallorca team that Han Sen played for last season!

Before the battle. There is also a small episode, that is, the upcoming Shijie Footballer of the Year selection, the media broke the news that Portuguese star Cristiano? Ronaldo will take the top honour for this professional player, while Hansen's teammate Lionel Messi could be second or third. Everyone believes that Messi's biggest loss is that he failed to help Barcelona win any titles in 2008, while Ronaldo helped Manchester United win the double. The "Shijie Footballer of the Year" selection was established by FIFA since 1991 to select the most outstanding players in the Shijie range every year. Voting rights are now in the hands of national team managers and captains, and each manager and captain can vote for three players, with three points awarded to the player in the first order. The second place player gets 2 points and the third place gets 1 point, but neither the captain nor the manager can vote for their own players. This time in Brazil, Hansen's Mallorca teammate. Venezuelan captain Arango said he voted for Hansen. But for the sake of face, Arango did not say how many places he voted for Han Sen, at least it seems that he is not the first pick.

However, the European media did not mention anything about the Barcelona players other than Messi in the Shijie Footballer of the Year list, and it seems that as long as they do not enter the top three, the attractiveness of the topic will be greatly reduced. However, the Chinese media blew up here, and Binyan's first news was that Han Sen had won the support of some teammates and friends. Coupled with the current influence in Barcelona, it will definitely not be at the bottom of the 23-man Shijie Footballer of the Year squad. Therefore, the selection of Shijie Footballer will become a breakthrough for Chinese players in Shijie football, which is a foregone conclusion.

"CCTV, CCTV, happy new year everyone, very happy to meet you again, today we are going to broadcast for you, is a key match in the 17th round of the Spanish Primera League this season, Barcelona at home against Real Mallorca. I'm Duan Xuan, and I'm here to explain the game to you today, and it's the familiar guidance of Zhang Luzhang. Duan Xuan commented in the Beijing studio.

Zhang Lu smiled: "Audience friends, fans and friends, Happy New Year." ”

"Today's game may be more significant for Han Sen." Duan Xuan said happily, "Because everyone knows that after Han Sen's transfer to Barcelona last winter, he was loaned to Mallorca for half a season, and it was in this half season that Han Sen showed strong strength, and while bringing good results to Mallorca, he also paved his way back to Barcelona." ”

"That's right." Zhang Lu nodded and said, "And last season, Barcelona loaned Han Sen to keep a back hand, and it was stipulated in the contract that Han Sen must be avoided, so Han Sen was not able to play against the old owner last season, and now Han Sen has returned to Barcelona, facing his first team in Europe, Mallorca, I think the mood will be a little complicated, and these tidbits with a little bit of time and historical traces, I think it is also the charm of the football league every year, which makes people never get tired." ”

Duan Xuan said with a smile: "What Director Zhang said is so good, after the advertisement, we will bring you the competition immediately." ”

Pep Guardiola's starting midfielders are still Yaya Toure, Xavi and Hansen, a combination that has been playing for some time and has withstood the test of the big devil's schedule and the national derby. It can be seen that the combination of Hansen and Xavi's double forward midfield, as Cruyff said, actually caused huge pressure on the back position while the attack was dazzling, so it had to force a black and hard midfielder like Yaya Toure to start repeatedly!

"Hello Coach!" Hansen hurried to stop Manzano in the tunnel and had not seen the Mallorca manager since the end of last season.

Manzano went to Camp Nou, his heart was a little uneasy, and he was thinking about other things in his mind, he was pulled by Han Sen, a little suddenly, but it immediately turned into a surprise: "handsome? Starting today? ”

"Thanks to you, I'm starting today." Han Sen said with a smile.

Manzano patted Han Sen on the shoulder: "I practiced well in Barcelona, my muscles have improved, I have become stronger, and my Spanish has begun to slip smoothly." ”

Han Sen hahadaxiao: "That's thanks to your cultivation at the beginning, without your meticulous cultivation for me in Mallorca, I would definitely not be able to stand here and talk to you now." ”

Manzano said to Han Sen with a little emotion: "The current Barcelona is not what it used to be, and you have to be merciful when the time comes." ”

Han Sen naturally knew that Mallorca defeated Barcelona 3-2 at Camp Nou last season, and for this reason, he also let Binyan, who was slammed, lose a supper, but due to the sudden Wenchuan earthquake, he was not allowed to cash in. Now Mallorca, the UEFA Cup group stage is out, the league is tired by the League Cup, ranked tenth, not optimistic, and now Barcelona has a new look, riding the dust. Therefore, Manzano's words, when he said it at this time, are really not polite words.

Han Sen said a few polite words, and Manzano went directly into the court. In the player tunnel, Mallorca's starting line-up Ramis, Carares, Barella, Arango, Nunez, and substitutes Moya, Weber and David? Navarro, who fought side by side with Han Sen last season, was full of greetings in the players' tunnel, and most of Mallorca's players stayed and gathered around Han Sen, and the atmosphere was excellent. However, the other players of Barcelona, who had experienced the experience of being defeated by Mallorca last season, are now holding back their strength to take revenge, and they all have a solemn expression and do not talk to their opponents. Those who do not know will definitely find it strange when they see this stark scene.

"In this game, Barcelona sent a starting lineup of 433, goalkeeper No. 1 Valdés, No. 29 Sanchez on the back line replaced Alves' position, maybe Alves came over the New Year, the state has not yet recovered, two central defenders No. 4 Marcos, No. 5 Puyol, left wingback No. 22 Abidal, midfielder No. 24 Toure, No. 6 Xavi, No. 13 Hansen, forwards No. 14 Henry, No. 9 Eto'o and No. 21 Hleb, Messi if not for other reasons, may also be after the New Year's vacation, has not returned to form, didn't even make the 18-man squad. Duan Xuan interpreted Barcelona's start.

Zhang Lu said: "Alves and Messi, a Brazilian and an Argentine, have experienced a long journey to the southern hemisphere, and we saw the news that Han Sen and Sun Jihai, two Chinese players, actually went to Brazil in the New Year and participated in a charity match organized by Zidane and Ronaldo. It can only be said that now Barcelona's midfielder, Hansen, like Xavi, has reached an indispensable point, and Iniesta is back in the squad for this game, but looking at this situation, even if he is a substitute in this game, it is difficult to shake Hansen's current position.
