Chapter 884 There can only be one boss in the Real Madrid locker room!
As the saying goes: There are many popular people right and wrong.
The best head coach in the world is about to take over Real Madrid, which naturally arouses strong attention from fans and media around the world.
Real Madrid's turmoil last season and the internal strife in the locker room made people curious and even worried about Gao Shen's new season.
What everyone is most concerned about is how Gao Shen deals with Casillas and his relationship with Ronaldo.
Needless to say, the former is the most difficult problem for Real Madrid right now.
After selling Coentrao and Carvalho, and at the same time selling Germany's No. 10, who works best with Ronaldo, everyone is speculating whether Gao Shen wants to use Ronaldo for surgery?
It is normal for a new official to use Ronaldo to establish his authority when he takes office.
At this sensitive moment, Ronaldo's agent Mendes came forward and said that Ronaldo was reconsidering his future in Real Madrid. This was obviously a provocation, but both Ronaldo and Real Madrid remained silent and refused to comment.
Accept.
Everything is confusing to the media and fans, and many things cannot be understood.
Even within Real Madrid, how Gao Shen positions Ronaldo is still a problem.
One is the world's top coach and the other is the team's top superstar. This is definitely Real Madrid's biggest hidden danger in the new season.
But Gao Shen's attitude towards Ronaldo has been very vague since Cheshire.
Now, he came to Madrid and still never mentioned Ronaldo.
"I will take care of this matter."
Since Valdano asked, Gao Shen had to give a clear attitude that he did not want the club to interfere.
"Now is not the right time. I'm not ready to meet him yet, and he should be the same, so I'll wait a little longer."
Valdano and others couldn't help but fell into thinking.
The words Gao Shen have a profound meaning.
He had to be ready before meeting Ronaldo.
What does it mean?
If you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to guess that he has been deploying.
Courtois, Marcos Alonso, Modric, Toni Kroos, Verratti, Casemiro, these new players were all hand-picked by senior experts, even Iss recommended by Hierro.
Science, will also be a profound person.
These people are new here, no matter what angle they look at, they will try their best to cooperate with Gao Shen.
In the original locker room, Gao Shen talked about Ramos, Arbeloa and Granero, Gao Shen's original favorite players. Now he has promoted Carvajal, Nacho, Jese, Morata and Jose.
Lou and Vazquez.
Under this arrangement, Gao Shen already has the strongest force in the locker room at hand.
If it goes a little more extreme and the situation gets really out of hand, he can sell all the players who don't support him, including Ronaldo!
But Gao Shen never goes to extremes when doing things. That is to injure the enemy a thousand times and harm yourself eight hundred times.
What he wants is to slowly unite more people.
In the words of a great leader, it means doing more for yourself and less for the enemy.
"Then what do you mean..."
"I made an appointment with Xavi Alonso and Benzema in the afternoon. Let's talk slowly." Gao Shen said with a smile.
Everyone immediately understood that everything in Gao Shen was progressing according to his plan.
"I understand, if you need anything, just call me and we will cooperate fully," Valdano said.
Zidane and Carlo knew each other well, but Hierro had a flash of strangeness.
Obviously, the former captain of Real Madrid also realized that Gao Shen seemed to be calm, but in fact he was slowly taking control of the locker room.
If you really want to integrate him, be it Casillas or Cristiano Ronaldo, if you don't submit, then just leave!
From now on, there can only be one boss in the Real Madrid locker room!
That is, profound!
…
Xavi Alonso really didn't expect that Gao Shen would ask him to meet so soon.
He had just finished playing for the national team and before he had time to rest, he received a call from Gao Shen.
On the phone, Gao Shen was very polite and asked if he had time to have a meal together.
Who is Xavi Alonso?
The smart man who went to the stands to read after the game knew very well that in this sensitive period, people have to come when they have time, and they have to come even if they don't have time. Anyone who doesn't come is a fool.
The Spanish midfielder not only rushed to Madrid as soon as possible, but also carefully prepared a gift from his hometown. He arrived at the hotel room at the agreed time at noon that day, and the meals were delivered directly to Gao Shen's room from the hotel.
Gao Shen also prepared a gift with Chinese characteristics for him, and the meeting was in a good atmosphere.
The conversation started with the European Cup.
Gao Shen was very satisfied with Xavi Alonso's performance in the European Cup. In the quarter-finals, Xabi Alonso scored twice to help Spain defeat the French team 2-0.
Xabi Alonso was also selected into the best team after the game and became one of the best midfielders in the European Cup.
But what Gao Shen wants to talk to Xabi Alonso is not about these, but tactics.
In the European Cup, Spain adopted a pseudo-center style of play, and at the same time set up two midfielders in the midfield, Busquets and Xavi Alonso.
"Frankly speaking, I have a very good relationship with Del Bosque. We often communicate on technical and tactical matters, but I have reservations about his approach. I think he is too conservative." Gao Shen said bluntly.
He believed that Bosque's approach was not in line with his tactical philosophy.
Then he explained around this point.
The result of adopting a double defensive midfielder style is that Iniesta and David Silva are more on the sides and ribs, and Xavi lacks a stable connection point.
The consequence of this is that Spain makes too many cross passes.
Gao Shen believes that after pulling and mobilizing through passing and cutting, deep passes should be sent out as soon as possible to create more threats.
Xabi Alonso agrees with Gao Shen's statement. In fact, there is no so-called right or wrong, but a matter of choice.
But he did mention a place that many people have ignored, the side roads.
"If you look at the passing data carefully, you will definitely be able to find that our wide players are actually very threatening in attack and press forward very high."
"If I remember correctly, Arbeloa should be the player who has been violated the most in this European Cup."
"Among the top ten, there are only two full-backs, one is Arbeloa and the other is Alba. The former ranks first and the latter ranks tenth. The rest are basically offensive players or playmakers, such as Pirlo.
"Gao Shen confirmed Xavi Alonso's statement.
Xavi Alonso was a little surprised. He had long heard that Gao Shen attached great importance to data analysis, but he didn't expect that he would attach such importance to it, and even such minute data was readily available.
This made the Spanish midfielder not only surprised, but also quite impressed.
"But there's another statistic, passing statistic."
"I understand what you mean." Gao Shen said.
In the passing data, the passing data of Xavi, Alonso, Busquets, Alba and others are all very good, and the success rate is also very high. Xavi passed the ball 620 times, with a success rate of 86%.
Suo passed the ball 584 times, with a success rate of 84%, and Busquets and Alba were similar.
Iniesta's position is further forward, basically in the frontcourt, and his passing success rate is only 75%.
Among the defenders, it goes without saying that Alba is the highest. Ramos passed the ball 441 times with a success rate of 86%. It can be seen that Real Madrid's central defender is really good at passing the ball.
Barcelona central defender Pique passed the ball 385 times, with a success rate of 79%, which is obviously a step behind Ramos.
In terms of defensive data, the two are actually almost the same.
Arbeloa's number of passes was 427, with a success rate of 79%, which is similar to Pique.
"So you see, in the final, in the first half, when Italy came out to press, we didn't have much advantage in possession, and there were some discussions in our team, especially after last season's Champions League final.
, I guess the coaching staff should be worried."
"The running ability of Xavi and Iniesta has declined, and they are unable to put more pressure on the opponent from the front. A single defensive midfielder is likely to cause the defense to lose control, especially Pique and Arbeloa.
.”
When Xavi Alonso said this, Gao Shen understood.
There must have been some discussions and even deductions within the Spanish national team.
If we look at it from this point of view, there is actually another problem, which is the lack of center.
This is an issue that affects the whole body.
But following this line of thinking, Gao Shen talked to Xavi Alonso about some of his ideas.
When attacking, the two wingers press forward as much as possible to participate in the attack. The fourth position remains in a deep position. If necessary, the two central defenders move to the wings and the fourth position returns to the central defender.
"The requirements for the two central midfielders will be very high." Xabi Alonso thought about it and knew it.
This style of play is not new to those who are familiar with it. It is just a further step based on the previous ones.
In other words, take a more radical step.
The full-backs are really involved in the attack on a large scale.
And it's done on both sides at the same time.
Judging from this European Cup, Spain has also made such an attempt, so they use Busquets to hold back and Xavi Alonso to move forward to assist Xavi's approach.
A team like Spain, which does not have serious wingers and centers, can attack so well. But if Real Madrid has top wingers and centers, how can it take off?
But as Xabi Alonso said, the requirements for the two central midfielders will be very high.
"Sir, do you think Toni Kroos, Modric and Verratti can do it?" Xavi Alonso asked cautiously.
"I believe they can." Gao Shen smiled.
In turn, he also meant to ask Harvey Alonso, can you do it?
"I have no problem!" Xavi Alonso thought for a moment and gave the answer readily.
Gao Shen smiled and clapped his hands.
Talking to smart people is really comfortable and doesn't require so much trouble.
Xabi Alonso is also really very tactically thinking.
"Believe me, Harvey, you will definitely become an excellent head coach in the future." Gao Shen praised.
Xavi Alonso was also very happy to hear this, as it was in line with his career plan.
"I hope to learn more from you."
"Then I wish us a happy cooperation."
With that said, Gao Shen stretched out his hand.
Xabi Alonso quickly shook hands with Gao Shen.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Needless to say a lot of things, both of us already know it.
