Chapter 87 Switching to Single-Core

Valverde is annoyed now.

Barcelona faced Paris Saint-Germain again in the Champions League, which was undoubtedly a disaster.

Judging from the situation they faced Paris in key games in the past few seasons, they were always in a passive situation.

There is no doubt that Paris Saint-Germain puts huge pressure on Barcelona and Valverde.

How do you rate this Barcelona team now?

Valverde feels that the external comments are very pertinent.

Once Suarez is in poor condition, all the offensive pressure will be concentrated on Messi, who must both organize and break through. The Barcelona king will be exhausted.

Fortunately, Dembele has performed well recently and has gradually evolved into Mr. Real Fragrance, which has given Valverde a lot of comfort, but this is not enough.

In the midfield, Rakitic is used like a cow, eating grass and milking.

Moreover, the entire midfield trinity, once one of them is in poor condition, the entire midfield will collapse.

This part of the pressure will also be put on Messi.

On the defensive end, they rely too much on Pique. It can be said that once Pique sees through, Barcelona's goal will be kicked into a sieve.

Valverde also wants to try to change the formation, but what are the players the club has found for him? In recent years, there are only a few that can be used, including Umtiti and Vidal, which cost 800 million. Oh, in exchange for such a few powerful players, this transfer is incredible.

Now Valverde has problems with Barcelona management.

You said you just moved around randomly, why did you do anything wrong before?

It doesn't matter that a natural super midfielder has been kicked out and is now helping outsiders beat his own people.

If Yi Le had not left, and he had been in Barcelona's midfield, Valverde would have dared to play against Paris Saint-Germain.

Every game is played in a 4-3-3 formation. Not only are Barcelona fans tired of watching it, but Valverde is tired of watching it too, but there's nothing we can do about it.

With this lineup, he really couldn't find any other better or safer position.

What's going on in Barcelona now?

It's all thanks to Messi's support.

It is completely sucking the nutrients of Messi to replenish the whole team.

There is nothing wrong with Messi being very powerful, but you can’t use him like this!

What a waste!

Valverde felt for the first time that it was a pity that Messi was in Barcelona.

However, now he also faces a huge challenge,

The current Paris Saint-Germain is definitely a BOSS-level team in the Champions League. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is a devil.

One Yile is difficult enough to deal with, plus Neymar's dual-core system.

This adds a turbocharger to the entire Paris Saint-Germain team, and the two engines are not at the same level at all.

Looking at the frontcourt, although Suarez and Messi can support the striker, is Paris' striker weak?

Neymar, Mbappe, and Cavani, with the support of Yi Le, they can perform superbly every game.

It has to be said that Yile is a huge bonus to a shooter. How difficult is it for Barcelona to fight against such a Paris Saint-Germain team?

First of all, the team's condition must be ensured, and no line should be in a state of decline. This is the most basic thing.

Then, Suarez can fight alone, at least maintaining the state he had against Atletico Madrid some time ago.

Secondly, the midfield trio must also ensure that they are not stretched apart and must be on the level line.

At the same time, Pique is asked to stabilize the defense. It would be better if others can perform outstandingly.

Finally, Messi must perform superbly.

What is super performance? It is similar to Messi's famous battle, the kind of strength where one person can take on the entire defense line alone.

By integrating these things, Barcelona can compete with Paris Saint-Germain, otherwise there will be no need to discuss anything.

"Hey~~So, why did you let Yi go in the first place!"

Valverde let out a long sigh. Last season, Barcelona was without a championship for a year, which caused great dissatisfaction among fans.

The league is the foundation, the Champions League is the highest honor, and the cup is the icing on the cake.

With Barcelona's current state, the league is almost guaranteed, but it all depends on Real Madrid stepping up and raising a hand.

Therefore, when the goal is to switch to the Champions League, they once again face the obstacle of Paris Saint-Germain, which is not a sour feeling.

...

On the other side, Villas-Boas was a little more relaxed.

Although he also knows that Barcelona is difficult to deal with, judging from past records, Paris Saint-Germain has a higher probability of winning.

At the same time, in terms of lineup composition, Paris Saint-Germain is also more reasonable.

Therefore, there is no problem in winning the game, but we still need to be energetic with 12 points.

Mero cannot be underestimated.

The energy that these two people can burst out is so amazing. If one of them fails, they will be reversed by the other side. Therefore, when he deploys tactics, he needs to target Messi.

Paris Saint-Germain is training in full swing.

Villas-Boas stood on the sidelines, folded his arms, turned around and asked; "How are they doing?"

Michelle came over and reported; "Yi is in very good condition. He has always maintained a high level of competition and has full physical fitness. After the injury, his physical confrontation has begun to recover and he has reached his peak state."

Hearing this, Boas nodded happily, and he was also quite surprised at Yi Le's ability to maintain his condition.

After all, few people can maintain such a stable competitive state for almost several seasons.

Of course, Boas knows that this all depends on Yi Le's almost crazy training method.

"What about the rest?"

Michel paused and said: "Neymar and Mbappe's condition has declined a bit, probably due to physical problems."

Villas-Boas was silent for a moment, and he was somewhat mentally prepared for the decline of Neymar and Mbappé.

But I didn't expect it to come so quickly.

This year's Paris Saint-Germain is fighting on four fronts, which can be called a fatal challenge.

But relying on a strong substitute lineup, Paris has survived until now.

The French Cup and French League Cup have entered the finals, the league maintains its top position, the Champions League has entered the quarter-finals, plus a European Super Cup champion.

Their goal is to win five titles this season.

However, the burden of multi-front operations is huge, and it is understandable that Neymar and others cannot bear it.

After all, the physical problem cannot be solved. Even if Paris has conducted special physical training, it cannot guarantee such a frequent schedule.

"Let Di Maria and Neymar rotate." Boas said lightly: "Paris can play single-core!"

At this time, Boas was not panicked at all, and Yi Le gave him enough confidence.

Whether it is dual-core or single-core, Yi Le's existence is his source of confidence.

It can even be said that having Yile is the capital that Boas can do whatever he wants to conduct a four-front battle.

Of course, it's best to play with dual cores as insurance, but Yi Le's single core leadership ability is also very strong. This guy defeated all the midfielders in the entire Champions League by himself.

Boas is confident that Yile is stronger now than before.
