Chapter 779 I'm Here to Win!

Escape from the hot Madrid is a good thing for the Real Madrid players who have just started training.

Coming to the pleasant climate of Dublin, the temperature is about fifteen degrees during the day, which is very cool and comfortable, which makes everyone look forward to a wonderful Irish holiday.

Maynooth is a quiet town, but the residents here are full of enthusiasm for the arrival of Real Madrid, especially Yang Yang.

On the day the team arrived in Maynooth, it felt as if everyone in the city came out to see the stars, and even the local police station dispatched all police forces to maintain order on the scene, which made Real Madrid feel a sense of pride.

But just when everyone was in a good mood, Benitez completely shattered all this beauty with ruthlessness.

Practicing three times a day is simply the devil!

After three days of adjustment in Madrid, after coming to Maynooth, Benitez formulated the devil summer special training.

Get up on time at 6:45 in the morning, have breakfast with the whole team at 7:15, go to the gym and swimming pool for stretching training at 8:00, then rest for a while, and then do physical training at 11:00.

The lunch time is 1:30 noon, after which you can take a two-hour nap. The third training session starts at 18:30 in the afternoon. The main content is dribbling training and tactical drills. Although players like Kaka who follow Winston Bogarde's special training are treated differently, the training intensity is still not small.

In the words of Benitez, high-intensity training is not only for summer physical reserves, but also to exercise the will of the players, so that the team can improve itself and stimulate more potential in the devil training.

"I think in the past few years, Real Madrid's players have been used to being pampered, so in the next period of time, each of you must be mentally prepared to lose a few kilograms of meat." Benitez threatened with a blank face.

Of course, the coaching staff is not completely disregarding the physical condition of the players. After all, no matter how you train, you must first ensure the physical health of the players, and you can't really train with injuries. This is also the reason why the team adjusted for three or four days in Madrid training camp. s reason.

When Benitez was in Liverpool before, he invited a team of Spanish physiology experts to train with the team and monitor the physical condition of the players before the major finals. After arriving in Madrid, which is rich and powerful, Benitez directly invited the team to join the team. coaching staff.

Yesterdam led the team to closely monitor the physical condition of Real Madrid players and adjust the training plan at any time.

...

Benitez used this almost tortured devil training to prepare for the game, and the Real Madrid locker room was mourning.

In terms of the locker room, Real Madrid has not had such high-intensity training for ten years.

The last time high-intensity training was arranged in the summer was in 1996. At that time, the head coach Capello was also called a devil, but the effect was very obvious. After the hard training in the summer, Real Madrid won the La Liga championship that season. Disease is also greatly reduced.

But Capello left after only one season at Real Madrid, bringing a La Liga title.

The reason is also very simple, Real Madrid do not like Capello's tactical style and his training.

During Capello's coaching period, the team's top star Hakan Suk once complained that he had lost several kilograms of meat.

As a hardcore of Real Madrid, Benitez used Hakan Suk's words to vaccinate the players. Obviously, he is determined to train an iron army this summer.

Like when he was at Liverpool.

Not only that, but he will completely break the bad habit of Real Madrid players pampering themselves.

Everyone knows how much it will help the next season, but with Capello's lessons learned, it is difficult for the subsequent coaches to do this.

Bosque is not an iron-blooded coach, but is more integrated with the locker room and is loved by the superstars; Queiroz once wanted to introduce Manchester United's training method, but he was not acclimatized, and in the second half of the 2003-04 season , Real Madrid's physical insufficiency was exposed most vividly, which was very clear to Yang Yang, who played for Ajax at the time.

After that, no matter whether it was Lusenberg, Capello, Schuster or Juan de Ramos, who entered the palace, they failed to change the status quo. They may have tried devil training for a time, but because of various failed for a reason.

But this time, Benitez is determined to stick to it, even if the dressing room complains.

Because he has the full support of Yang Yang!

...

As the team's number one star, Yang Yang is not the leader of the locker room, but he is definitely the soul of the Real Madrid team. His every move has been closely watched by everyone on the team.

In the first training session when he joined the team, Yang Yang told everyone with his professional ethics that he would strictly implement the coaching staff's plan, and then his physical fitness was no less than that of Las Diarra and Ma Scherano, the most physically capable player in the team, shows his self-discipline even more.

Benitez and Yesterdam approached him and mentioned the importance of physical reserve training in the summer. During his time at Liverpool, Yang Yang also felt the importance of physical reserve. Coupled with his impression of Real Madrid in the past, he supported Benet. nits.

After arriving at Maynooth, Benitez's devilish training sparked strong complaints in the locker room, and even old courtiers like Guti felt overwhelmed. He is notoriously physically challenged.

Yang Yang meticulously performed the tasks of the coaching staff on the training ground. Even if he did so, the rest of the team couldn't find any reason to discount it. Yang Yang also kept a cold eye on complaints, until one time, I Blahimovic couldn't help complaining to him about Benitez's ruthlessness, and Yang Yang only spoke his mind.

"If it comes to building a balanced overall team, building a mature and stable tactical system, and forming a powerful fighting machine, I don't think anyone in today's European football can match him!"

"He has never been a good person and will never be our closest friend, including me, it is estimated that few people will like a coach like him, but I personally don't think I came to Real Madrid to make friends with the coach. , I'm here to win, to win, to kill everyone."

Yang Yang's remarks have been unanimously agreed by Xavi Alonso, Mascherano and Abeloa. They all have an obvious characteristic, that is, they have played for Liverpool and are very familiar with Benitez. .

Raul, Ibrahimovic and others were speechless, obviously thinking about Yang Yang's words.

Over the years, there have been many coaches who have coached Real Madrid, some of them are more powerful, such as Capello and Juande Ramos, but the final result is not very good, even if they get a little honor, they will stay here for a long time.

There are also some who can mingle with the stars and are liked by the locker room, but in the end, they are the sixteenth men of the Champions League.

Many people miss Bosque, but only those who know Real Madrid can know that even if Bosque really stayed in 2003, Real Madrid still cannot escape the difficulties that followed, because Bosque is not the kind of person who can make a big move.

Benitez is a die-hard Real Madrid fan. There is no doubt about it. He has qualifications, fame, strength and courage. Now he has the full support of Yang Yang, the number one superstar in the team. This should be regarded as a pretty good opportunity. .

Do you want a breakthrough in performance, or continue to live in harmony?

Raul and Zlatan Ibrahimovic were quick to answer.

The captains and superstars have all made their statements, and naturally the other players in the locker room can only put aside their extra thoughts and devote themselves to the summer training and preparations.

...

The temperature in Dublin is very suitable for training, and the three-day-a-day devil training made the locker room complain a lot, but no one dared to challenge the decision of the coaching staff.

German central defender Metzelder said in an interview with Real Madrid TV that after joining Real Madrid, he experienced three training sessions a day for the first time. It was really hard, and he was also very surprised.

Raul also felt the same way, saying that he had been in Real Madrid for 15 years, and this was the first time he had encountered such a devil training, but the Real Madrid captain also said that every head coach has his own ideas and plans, and players need to adapt to it.

"My body is sore now, and I feel that I have never felt so hard, but I believe in the principle of first bitterness before sweetness. Our training like this will definitely benefit in future competitions."

Raul is not the only player who is too tired to lie on the bed after training every day, but even in an interview with the media, no player questioned the head coach, and more is looking forward to seeing the effect in the future.

Yang Yang, Mascherano and Pepe have become the best and most prominent players in the team's devil training camp. The three of them are hailed as immortal, because they can still maintain a lively state in three training sessions a day. .

In an interview with Real Madrid TV, Zlatan Ibrahimovic smiled wryly and praised his best friend, "He is a beast, like a machine that doesn't need rest at all, I really feel now that I have to work harder Only by working hard can I barely keep up with him, I don't want to lose to him!"

Kaka and Robben escaped because they trained with Winston Bogard. Although the amount of training is not small, it is more gradual, but they also feel the atmosphere of the team.

"This is the first time since I joined Real Madrid that the team's mental outlook has undergone tremendous changes. In just a few days, everyone has practiced very hard and looked tired, but behind the scenes they gave People bring an expectation," Robben said.

Kaka also agrees, "They all think that I have escaped and do not need to participate in such training, but in fact, I really feel very uncomfortable. If possible, I would like to be able to participate in team training. That way I feel like I'm part of it, a part of them."

Real Madrid's devil training continued amid this pain and expectation, as well as the outside world's doubts about how long it would last.
