Chapter 1422 It Is Difficult for a Clever Woman to Cook without Rice

After the Camp Nou tragedy, Barcelona once again ushered in the Paris tragedy.

For a time, the whole world of football was shocked, and all the media and fans were exclaiming the decline of Barcelona.

What is the reason for such a violent landslide in Barcelona?

With a superstar combination like Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar in the frontcourt, why did this team suffer such a disastrous defeat in the Champions League round of 16?

L'Equipe even believes that if it weren't for the outstanding performance of German goalkeeper Ter Stegen, the score would be far more than 4-0, and Barcelona may even repeat the previous 0-7 defeat at Camp Nou in Paris.

In the post-match player comments, among the ten-point rating, only Ter Stegen got six points, and all other players failed, the worst being Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Inie. Sta, Andre Gomez and Alba, all five players with two points, performed extremely poorly.

Head coach Enrique was severely criticized again. Even when Barcelona returned to Barcelona from Paris overnight, some Barcelona fans rushed to the airport to demonstrate, demanding that Enrique resign and apologize.

Not only the media and fans, but even Barcelona's internal doubts about the coach Enrique, Pique and Busquets and other local players have questioned the coach's formation, thinking that the team should have played more actively. Be proactive.

Enrique was at the post-match press conference, still believing that the team still had a chance to turn around.

The premise is that the Barcelona players must greatly improve their state.

...

The day after the match, Real Madrid's Valdebebasne was also discussing the match between Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.

The strength gap between the two teams can't be so big, and even Paris Saint-Germain is not so strong. The only explanation is that Barcelona played so badly this game.

After the training session, Yang Yang appeared in the coaching staff's office. Everyone took advantage of the break to watch the video of the game. At the same time, everyone also got David Bertoni's data analysis in their hands.

This is the norm for Real Madrid, because no one knows whether Real Madrid's opponent will be one of the two teams next.

Moreover, Barcelona is also Real Madrid's opponent in the Copa del Rey final.

"It can be seen that Emery still borrowed our previous tactics at Camp Nou in this game, attacking Barcelona's right flank, attracting defensive attention, then raiding the left flank, Draxler and Lucas Moe. La's performances were excellent, that's how Paris Saint-Germain beat Barcelona with four goals."

"And at the end of the day, it's obvious that there is a problem with the fitness of the Barcelona players, they can't run."

This is a very serious problem.

As we all know, football is about running and passing. If you can't run, you can only be slaughtered.

Modern football, especially football trends over the past few years, places a lot of emphasis on running.

In today's integrated football, only running can create opportunities, but what Barcelona lacks now is running.

Before the Nou Camp, Barcelona beat Real Madrid in the derby of the century, and the reason why they lost 0-7 was also because of their lack of movement.

"Last year, in the derby of the century, Barcelona had just experienced two consecutive matches against the national team, but now, they are still playing two consecutive matches. The team is bigger and all the players are on the pitch and they don't want to run, that's a big problem."

In the past two weeks, Barcelona have succumbed to Atletico Madrid in two rounds, followed by a 3-0 home victory over Athletic Bilbao, followed by a 6-0 away victory over Alaves.

Barcelona's lineup is already relatively thin, the main lineup looks luxurious, but in fact lacks the thickness of the bench, the back line is also problematic, and the midfield is not as good as before. It was Paris Saint-Germain, sitting at home, waiting for work, and the head coach was Emery, who was familiar with La Liga. The targeted tactics defeated Barcelona in one fell swoop.

"Messi was completely lost in this game. There was only one shot in the whole game, and he didn't even touch the ball in the opponent's penalty area. He didn't create even a single chance in the whole game. Instead, he made frequent mistakes and was stolen by the opponent eighteen times. A very bad performance.”

Everyone in the coaching staff's office is a professional, and they will not be like the outside media or fans, who will not get down on Barcelona's fiasco, but will analyze this game from a professional standpoint and perspective.

In the professional league, who dares to say that he will not lose? Won't fail miserably?

"I think it would be irresponsible to pass all the responsibility for this fiasco to Luis Enrique." Yang Yang also spoke, but he was defending Enrique.

Although he doesn't like the Barcelona coach very much, it's a fact.

"Yeah." Zidane nodded and sighed, "If Enrique is dismissed like this, Barcelona's problem will still not be solved, because their most serious problem now is the lineup, which seems luxurious, but in fact But there are many problems, top-heavy, and aging is particularly serious.”

"Iniesta is 33 years old, Cristiano Ronaldo is 31 years old, and Pique is also 30 years old. Besides the trident in the frontcourt, what else can Barcelona do? "

Zidane's doubts are not without reason, because many times, as long as the team loses, the coach has to take the blame.

Teams, media, fans, and even players all want the coach to take the blame.

The reason is simple, firing the head coach is the cheapest.

But from another point of view, Enrique has no way to make Barcelona produce a solid bench thickness for rotation, so the media and fans accuse him of refusing to rotate. Does it make sense?

Any kind of playing style, any kind of football concept, is based on the efforts of eleven players to run and pass the ball. If the players can't run, no matter how beautiful the playing method and the advanced concept are, it is useless.

The biggest problem of Barcelona in the past few years is that the team has panic-styled the frontcourt, from the transfer fee to the salary structure, all of them are piled up to the frontcourt, which has put too much financial pressure on the team. The chances of the thickness of the bench have led to the team always relying on only one lineup to dominate the world.

Does Barcelona spend less money?

Quite a lot. It spent 120 million euros last summer. Can the players brought in play a role?

Kind of, but not up to expectations.

In the end, a lot of money was spent, but Enrique still used that main lineup to get through it.

Mathieu, Umtiti, Turan, André Gomez, Digne, Rafinha, Vidal…

These players are all worth a lot, but in Barcelona they did not meet the expectations of the outside world.

Yang Yang felt that the wisdom of Real Madrid's management can be seen at this time. Florentino predicted the situation early, so he prepared in advance and started in advance to create a strong lineup for Real Madrid. Solid bench thickness.

It can be said that without an excellent bench lineup, Real Madrid would not have been able to win the Grand Slam for three consecutive seasons.

Even, according to the current trend, Real Madrid is still very hopeful to continue the treble this season.

At least in the face of such Barcelona, ​​whether it is La Liga or the King's Cup, Real Madrid are confident.

Of course, it is not that Barcelona does not want to sign, but that there is no suitable candidate.

Barcelona also knows the problem of the right back, so they also wanted to strengthen the right during the winter break, but they chose to choose, but they never chose a satisfactory one. In the end, what Barcelona wanted was Donetsk. The captain of the Miners, the 35-year-old Croatian right-back Dario Srna.

This is very confusing.

If the 35-year-old Dario Srner can meet Barcelona's demands, why let Alves go on a free transfer in the first place?

But in the end, the deal did not succeed, because the captain of Shakhtar Donetsk asked for the same annual salary as the current one, but everyone knows that Srna has worked for Shakhtar Donetsk for many years and has a high annual salary. This is Barcelona cannot be satisfied.

In the end, the deal was over.

Thinking of this level, Yang Yang suddenly thought of the sentence, the outcome of a football match often depends on the outside of the game.

Real Madrid's current situation is so strong that the players and the coaching staff are certainly contributing, but the management is also crucial, and Barcelona's fiasco is definitely not just a problem of the players and the coaching staff, but the management of Barcelona is also full of problems.

With the current situation of Barcelona, ​​even if Guardiola is replaced as coach, it is estimated that it will still end in a fiasco.

There is no way, Guardiola is not a god, a clever woman can't cook without rice, he suffered from the pain of not having a ball-handling midfield in Manchester City, and now he is willing to come to take over the mess of Barcelona?

After watching the Barcelona game, Yang Yang and Zidane looked at each other in unison, and they all saw the smiles in each other's eyes, and they were somewhat fortunate.

Fortunately, Kante was introduced last summer, and De Bruyne was retained to maximize the strength of the team's midfield. Coupled with the back line and the thickness of the bench in the front court, Real Madrid's three lines are still neatly staffed and strong. .

No one can do anything about getting to Enrique's point.

...

"I suddenly feel some sympathy for Enrique." Yang Yang said with a wry smile.

After everyone heard it, they were all heartbroken.

Yang Yang is not really sympathetic to Enrique, but to all the head coaches who take the blame.

Many times, the head coach is just the culprit behind the team's various conflicts and problems, not the real problem.

But throughout the ages, how many head coaches failed to get the recognition and affirmation they deserved because of the blame, and some even stopped their coaching careers because of this.

But this is the professional league, cruel and cold-blooded, with crises and challenges everywhere.

Professional players are like that, and so are the coaches.

To survive in this world, or even to get ahead, it is not enough to rely on individual efforts, because football has never been an individual sport.

This is why Yang Yang always said that his achievements are inseparable from the team.
