Chapter 1076 He Looks Like Buffon!

The team returned to Madrid from Valencia overnight, but the recovery training session at noon the next day was led by vice-captain Ramos, which made many people feel uncomfortable, but thinking about Casillas' injury, My heart felt even worse.

Real Madrid has indeed suffered a lot of injuries in recent times.

Casillas' injury was an accident, but it did have some human factors.

Arbeloa has been working hard recently, because Carvajal performed very well, which made Arbeloa feel the pressure, and played very hard on the court. He originally wanted to clear the siege, but unexpectedly he threw the ball The captain's left hand was kicked and broken.

This is really not good news for Real Madrid, because after Casillas was injured, only Antonio Adan was left in the Real Madrid team.

Although Adan performed well in training, he has no experience in major competitions, and he will play in the Champions League next.

But more important is the atmosphere within the team.

Arbeloa is a standard direct descendant of Real Madrid's youth training. He has always been the captain in the youth training camp, but in the locker room, his relationship with Casillas, Ramos and others is not good. The problem must be There's no problem, but it's not really a friendship, it's a bit like the kind of blandness between professional players.

But this time, Arbeloa kicked Casillas with a broken left hand, which still caused him trouble. Ramos publicly questioned Arbeloa during the intermission, why didn't he stop his foot at that time?

Arbeloa explained that he didn't do it on purpose, but there was no way to convince Ramos, because Arbeloa should have been able to see Casillas attack at the time, but he chose to kick, and he played so ruthless.

No one can say for sure about this kind of thing, but Casillas did have a broken bone.

Yang Yang also came forward at halftime to appease Ramos and Arbeloa, but the atmosphere in the locker room must have changed.

Many people must be guessing, is it intentional?

But this is bound to be an unanswered question.

...

The captain was kicked to a bone by his teammates, he was truce for at least half a month, and there were conflicts in the locker room. All these made the Real Madrid management attach great importance to them. Both Florentino and Valdano visited the locker room after the morning training class to appease the team. players.

Subsequently, Real Madrid's management, core coaching staff and player representatives organized a high-level meeting to discuss how to solve the current problems and problems encountered by the team.

When Casillas was injured and Marcelo hadn't recovered yet, Real Madrid's player representatives were only Ramos and Yang Yang.

The former is the vice-captain of the team, while Yang Yang is the most respected player in the locker room. Whether it is Casillas, Ramos, or Arbeloa, they all obey him.

The first topic of the meeting was Di Maria's red card.

Real Madrid has been getting red cards more frequently in recent times, and there are often situations where there is one less player in the game. This is definitely not a good phenomenon, just like in the Valencia game, Di Maria's revenge was very rare. necessary.

Sure, Valencia's actions were rough and disgusting, but Real Madrid are treated like this so often and shouldn't get out of hand.

Ancelotti gave an explanation for this, thinking that the team has been under a lot of pressure recently, especially the winning streak in the past six months, which has put everyone in the team in a state of high tension. The reason for getting red cards again and again.

Zidane also agreed with Ancelotti's statement, thinking that such a winning streak is exciting, but it is also a huge pressure.

"We fight our opponents with heavy shackles in every game." Zidane said empathetically.

Yang Yang said that Di Maria's red card was definitely wrong and irrational. He should be given a warning, but he should not be fined heavily, because the pressure on the team has been really high recently.

"I think that at this time, we need understanding and tolerance, not punishment, which is meaningless to the unity in the locker room." Yang Yang said with great certainty.

Seeing that the three of them had the same attitude, Florentino and Valdano also expressed that they would seriously consider everyone's opinions.

It seems that Di Maria should not be severely punished.

And then another question is, how should Arbeloa's kicking and injury to Casillas be handled?

It is definitely impossible to punish Arbeloa. Anyway, this must be an accidental injury, because there has never been such a precedent for punishing a player for accidentally injuring a teammate, and Real Madrid will not do it.

What's more, when Casillas was interviewed by the media, he also said that he had forgiven Arbeloa.

But the real question is how to ease the atmosphere in the locker room next? Also, after Casillas is absent due to injury, who should guard the team's goal?

"Now we mainly have two opinions. First, let Antonio Adán be the main goalkeeper and wait for Casillas' comeback. But to be honest, we are worried about his performance because he has been a goalkeeper all these years. The team's substitute goalkeeper does not have much actual game experience, especially experience in major competitions."

In the past few years, being a goalkeeper at Real Madrid has been a very aggrieved thing, because there is a goalkeeper named Casillas.

Since his debut, Casillas has been cultivated as a legendary goalkeeper of Real Madrid, and he did not disappoint. He showed a surprising level in his debut and firmly grasped the main position.

In the past ten years, Casillas has never been a disappointment. Even in the darkest period of Real Madrid, he is the team's most stable and reliable last line of defense, which makes any goalkeeper It is difficult to shake Casillas' position in Real Madrid and can only be placed on the bench.

What is even more catastrophic is that Casillas has very few injuries.

In this way, as Real Madrid's substitute goalkeeper, he may not be able to play a few games in a season, not to mention that the level cannot be improved, and even the game experience is very lacking. How can this be competitive?

Before Adan, Real Madrid's substitute goalkeeper was Dudek. He came to Real Madrid at the age of 34 after Liverpool lost his main position. He retired after playing for four years.

But Adan is only twenty-five years old this year.

"There is still a week before the winter break transfer market closes. It is difficult for us to introduce a high-level goalkeeper during this period of time. Therefore, we must either continue to trust Adan or choose other teams as a substitute. Goalkeeper," said Valdano, frowning.

"At present, the initial consideration of our technical team is Diego Lopez. He came from the Real Madrid youth academy and then went to Villarreal. He performed very well there. Last summer, Villarreal was relegated. Switched to Sevilla, but he did not perform well in Sevilla this season. He is not the main goalkeeper at present, but his strength is beyond doubt."

The role of the technical team is to provide a solution to the problem as soon as possible when the team has a problem.

Casillas was injured, and the substitute given by Valdano was Diego Lopez, and it seemed very feasible.

"However, Lopez is definitely just our transition plan, because he is already 31 years old, and he is destined not to be the person we are looking for, but he should be the most suitable candidate we can find so far."

"In addition, we also considered Manchester United's David de Gea. He is very young, only 22 years old, he is not bad, and he is familiar with La Liga. His current performance in Manchester United is not ideal. He scored 31 goals, the level of the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League, which made Ferguson very dissatisfied with him, and it is possible to introduce Stoke City goalkeeper Begovic to replace him."

After a pause, Valdano analyzed again: "However, there is no problem with De Gea's strength and potential. We have been following him for a long time. It is impossible to operate him in a week, and Manchester United will not consider selling their main goalkeeper in the winter break, even though he performed poorly."

De Gea is a genius that has emerged in Spain in recent years. He was born in Atletico Madrid and was introduced by Manchester United at a high price. However, the idea of ​​​​Real Madrid wanting to introduce De Gea is not just now, because in Spain, there has always been De Gea. De Gea can replace Casillas' voice in the future, and even Casillas himself recognizes De Gea.

For Real Madrid, the introduction of a high-level goalkeeper who is destined to become Spain's national goal in the future to replace Casillas is definitely the best choice for the team.

Real Madrid is not short of money now. With De Gea's performance this season, his transfer fee is within the acceptable range of Real Madrid, but it is impossible for Manchester United to sell him during the winter break, so this transfer is feasible. very low.

"There is no doubt that De Gea is still very young, but he already has the quality and potential of a top goalkeeper in the future."

The one who said this was the goalkeeper coach of Real Madrid's core coaching staff, William Vech. He is a top goalkeeper coach in the world. He has trained Buffon and Dida, and Cech has also been reborn under his hands.

"He is very similar to Buffon when he was young. He is similar in height and shape, and also has similar technical characteristics. They both have superb goal-line technology, quick response, and excellent second-saving ability. But the difference is that De Gea is still very good at the moment. Young, he still lacks in attack timing, position selection and command and defense, but I believe that with the accumulation and improvement of experience, he will still have considerable room for improvement."

Vicky analyzed the future of De Gea from a professional point of view. From the point of view of the management and technical team, it is obvious that he hopes to use De Gea to compete with Casillas. However, De Gea can be introduced during the winter break. Gea?

In fact, Casillas' problems have long been exposed. With the improvement of age and the decline of physical function, his height has become his biggest obstacle. This is neither in line with Real Madrid's current requirements nor in the future. Goalkeeper trends.

On the contrary, De Gea seems to be the successor of Casillas handpicked by the Real Madrid management.

Yang Yang doesn't have much say in this matter, and it doesn't have much to do with him. His most important task is to stabilize the team's locker room and ensure that Real Madrid will have no problems during this period of time.

As for who Real Madrid finally decides to introduce and whether they can be introduced, these are not issues he should consider.
