Chapter 357: The reaction of the Barcelona Gang and Bosque
Xavi's room, Barcelona players gathered together.
There are seven Barcelona players selected for the Spanish team this time, and basically all of them are the main players!
Someone once said that the reason why the Spanish team has dominated Europe and the world in recent years is because of Barcelona's success.
The Barcelona Gang has become the most influential group of people in the Spanish team and has the highest status in the locker room.
No matter who comes to coach the Spanish team, they have to reuse them.
Harvey broke the silence: "Lee's arrival will inevitably break the balance in the locker room. Let's discuss countermeasures when we gather together today."
Pedro was the first to speak: "He stirred up national hatred. I don't know why the coach still let him be selected!"
As a forward, Li Chuanqi's biggest threat is Pedro's position.
Pique glanced at him, don't you understand such a simple truth?
For next year's World Cup.
Xavi said: "The call for him to be selected for the Spanish team is so loud that the coach can no longer suppress it."
Busquets nodded and said: "Cristiano won La Liga and the Champions League golden boots by beating Messi, and he is still so young. Such a person will join the Spanish team sooner or later.
After the start of this season, his performance remains stable, and Atletico Madrid's results...
So it is normal for him to be selected at this time. If he is not selected again, the Spanish Football Federation will not be able to withstand it."
Fabregas sighed: "Atletico Madrid has four people selected this time. This signal is very dangerous!"
Harvey shook his head and said: "Except for Li, everyone else only has a substitute position, so don't worry too much about this."
Iniesta, who has been silent, said: "I don't think we need to pay too much attention to this matter. Some things cannot be stopped. Since he will be selected sooner or later, why should we care about when and how he is selected?"
Harvey asked: "What do you mean..."
Iniesta said: "When we get to the Spanish team, we have to think about the Spanish team. We don't need to be so clear-cut."
Harvey said: "You mean... we accept him calmly?"
Iniesta nodded. Whether in Barcelona or the Spanish team, Iniesta doesn't like to fight for anything.
However, despite his strong strength, he is the main force and core of the team no matter in Barcelona or Spain.
Pedro objected: "I don't agree with this!
He definitely doesn't think so. His relationship with the Catalan media shows that he has a deep prejudice against Barcelona.
In other words, he is standing on the opposite side of us!"
Fabregas nodded and said: "Maybe at this time, the Real Madrid gang is already wooing him. The enemy of my enemy is a friend, so he should stand with the Real Madrid gang!"
After some discussion, Barcelona failed to form a unified opinion. Those led by Iniesta believed that the overall situation should be considered, while those led by Pedro believed that they must take a crackdown and use their status in the locker room to affect his playing time.
…
Bosque Room.
After del Bosque and his assistants finalized the training plan for the past few days, they turned their attention to the team's internal issues.
Since Mourinho took over Real Madrid, Del Bosque has found that the atmosphere in the Spanish team has changed significantly. Real Madrid players and Barcelona players are very different from each other in training and do not communicate with each other.
This atmosphere gave Del Bosque a headache. He wanted to change, but was unable to do anything.
"I think there is still a problem in letting Li enter at this time, and it will make things worse."
The tactical coach said: "The relationship between Lee and the Catalan media is very bad. It has reached the point of tension. The Barcelona players must have opinions about him."
The physical fitness coach nodded and said: "Catalan cities are holding independence marches, and Li's selection is the trigger!"
Bosque frowned, is this my fault?
He sighed and said: "Purely from a technical and tactical perspective, he should have been selected last season. Many people often mentioned him in my ears, but after comprehensive consideration, I still suppressed the selection.
After last season, the clamor for his selection reached its peak, and some media even thought that I was deliberately suppressing him and that I was a racist.
After the start of the new season, take a look at the La Liga and Champions League scorer lists. Who occupies the top spot?
Atletico Madrid can achieve such amazing results, who has the greatest credit?
A week ago, before the list was announced, my phone was almost buzzing.
Besides the media, do you know who called me?
Hierro, Joaquín, Angel Vera..."
The expressions of several assistants began to change, and the chairman of the Football Association also came to intervene!
"Mr. Castejon called me and mentioned him."
Prime Minister?!
Bosque shook his head and said: "You think in this situation, can I still suppress him?"
The assistants were silent.
Del Bosque Q&A: "If it weren't for his skin color, would you have given me suggestions to select him?"
After a moment of silence, several people nodded. This is an indisputable fact.
Such a talented and stunning player will be the core of the Spanish team for the next ten years.
Del Bosque said: "In this case, his selection is a matter of course. You see, the opinions raised by the Catalan media mainly focused on his incompatibility with the Spanish team's tactics, and did not mention other aspects.
Is Lee really incompatible with the Spanish tactical system?
We are based on Barcelona's tactics. Why did Barcelona dominate Europe in the past few years?
In addition to Xavi and others, it is also because of Messi.
Messi's breakthrough is the key point of the pass and control tactics. His breakthrough can disrupt the opponent's defensive arrangement.
Although there is still a certain gap between Li's breakthrough ability and Messi's, the gap is not very big.
What's even more valuable is his ability to capture opportunities, which he is even better than Messi!
Therefore, there is no incompatibility problem with him in the Spanish team, and he will assume Messi's role in Barcelona!"
Everyone nodded, Li Chuanqi being selected for the Spanish team will only increase his offensive power.
This will make the Spanish team stronger.
The tactical coach said worriedly: "But... on the side of the Barcelona players..."
"I will find time to communicate with them and hope they can give up their narrow nationalism," Bosque said.
The fitness coach raised another question: "We were all paying attention to other people, but not to Li. What did he think? Do we know? I heard that he had a big fight with his teammates when he arrived in Malaga, which affected the entire country.
A team.
Such a player, if not handled well, will be a time bomb in the locker room!"
The room was silent and the atmosphere was somewhat depressing.
After a while, Bosque broke the silence: "I will ask him to come to my room in a minute. I want to have a good chat with him."
