Real Madrid's transfer action was extremely fast. In other words, Real Madrid's top management trusted Benitez. Florentino gave Benitez sufficient funds and sufficient support for the people he named. Real Madrid's transfer The meeting part works very smoothly.
In terms of defenders, Benitez listened to Jin Yuan's opinion and ruled out scouts from inspecting Alderweireld and Li Xinyu, but the result was not very satisfactory to Benitez.
Alderweireld is indeed good, but the Belgian is currently happily serving as the vice-captain of Everton. Everton's record is also good. Last season, he reached the Champions League again and entered the main draw. Alderey Wilder is the core of the team's defense, and it is normal to be unwilling to leave Everton.
Then there is Li Xinyu. Although Jin Yuan recommended it, Real Madrid had to consider whether it was appropriate to reserve the non-European quota for a rotation. In addition, Li Xinyu is actually a defender who is stronger in offense than defense, and a rotation player. Real Madrid would not first choose such a player. Guard with a knife, after all, the name of guard with a knife sounds very domineering, but if you actually charge forward with a knife, it is very possible to die on the front line and never come back.
Benitez¡¯s final choice was Daniel Carvajal from Real Madrid¡¯s youth academy.
Although this former Real Madrid player from Castilla came from the Real Madrid youth training, he went to Bayer Leverkusen, Roma and other teams after several loans. In the end, Roma chose to buy out the Real Madrid defender.
The final transaction price between the two parties was 15 million euros. Although Carvajal was the main starter in Rome, being able to return to the Bernabeu Stadium was a big temptation for this player who came from the Castilla youth training. And Benitez promised him a certain amount of playing time, and the two sides hit it off immediately. Although Roma did not want to sell this main defender, under the pressure of the players, Carvajal finally returned to the Bernabeu Stadium as he wished.
After signing three players, Benitez quickly finalized the last player to join the team. This is the first non-Spanish player that Benitez has signed this season. This is the Italian international Insigne that Benitez bought from his old club. Originally, Benitez did not want to poach players from his old club. However, unable to find the player he wanted in the transfer market, Benitez could only focus on the players he had worked with before. Real Madrid spent 30 million pounds in transfer fees for Italian international Insigne. According to According to most net worth statistics websites, Insigne is not worth so much money. This is just Benitez compensating his old club.
The introduction of four players has received mixed reactions from fans. Some fans think that this season's signings are not good because no big-name stars from the past have joined the team. Others think it is good. Benitez bought three local players to balance Real Madrid's current lineup, which is mainly composed of foreign players. One of them thinks it is good. Carvajal is still the star of hope of Real Madrid. Over the years in Italy, Carvajal has grown a lot and returned to the Bernabeu with rich experience in Serie A, where defense is paramount. Carvajal should also make great progress, otherwise, he will not be the main force of the Red Wolves.
As for Insigne, the fans are also quite satisfied. The money spent is a bit too much, but Insigne has indeed performed very well under Benitez in the past two years. It is obvious that Insigne is not physically strong enough to play a single arrow, but he can find opportunities behind the center. It can also be used on the wing, mainly used with Bell and Jin Yuan. Ozil, Pjanic and others rotate.
However, Jin Yuan is not very satisfied with the team's signings. Although Jin Yuan has not expressed anything publicly, he is still slightly dissatisfied. After all, several of his suggestions have not been adopted by Benitez. He doesn't know how Wahar compares with Li Xinyu and Alderreweireld, but Jin Yuan subconsciously thinks that Li Xinyu is a good choice. In addition, Benitez's choice of midfielder Herrera, Jin Yuan is not Jin Yuan believed that Herrera could compete with Strotman, not to mention that Strotman's tactical requirements were also in line with Benitez. Jin Yuan recommended it to Benitez based on this consideration.
But Benitez still prefers Spanish players. However, as a player, he is not qualified to dictate Benitez's transfer actions. What's more, Benitez also listened to Jin Yuan's opinions and sent out to inspect Al Drevelde and Li Xinyu.
However, in the post-Mourinho era, it is not easy for Benitez to create success, because when Mourinho left Inter Milan, his successor was also Benitez, but the Spanish tactician Inter Milan was not happy and ended the get out of class sadly.
When Mourinho left Real Madrid, he learned that his successor was Benitez. Mourinho smiled slightly when facing the media, and then told the media: "I am ready for Benitez." The best squad in the world."
Mourinho¡¯s words are very cunning, so cunning that people can¡¯t fault them. Are you always satisfied with the Triple Crown winning lineup? worldThe best stars in the world, Jin Yuan, Bale, Lewandowski, Ozil and other stars, gathered at Real Madrid. Are you satisfied? Age structure? Casey Lopez 81, Aveiroa 83, Modric 85, Ramos 86, Hamsik Benzema Callejon 87, Otamendi Ozil, Lewandowski, Marcelo Di Maria 88 , azp Belcoin Telang 89, Jinyuan Pjanic Mwila 90, Morata 92, Varane 93, the age structure of the first team is reasonable. state? Just won the Triple Crown, what do you think?
But Benitez failed once under the same circumstances. It was also a team that won the Triple Crown, and it was also a three-team lineup, but Benitez couldn't lead it well. What now?
Before the start of the league, Real Madrid encountered bad news. Welsh superstar Gareth Bale injured his knee during physical training at the beginning of the season. This knee injury had to keep Bale away from the game for two months. This is a major blow to Benitez.
Time waits for no one. Real Madrid's first game of the new season has arrived. The first game is against Valencia. Benitez's starting lineup overturned the 4-5-1 double midfielder often used during Mourinho's period. The formation was changed to 4-4-1-1, with Lewandowski and Ozil in the starting lineup as the two front 1s, while Jin Yuan, Insigne, Mwila and Hamsik served as the four In the midfield, the division of labor is very clear. Mwila is mainly responsible for fighting, and Hamsik is responsible for holding back. The two wingers require more running, and both defense and offense must be taken into consideration. The selection of the defense line is different from the original Mourinho period. Same, Marcelo, Varane, Ramos and Azpilicueta partner, goalkeeper Casillas.
In fact, Jin Yuan does not particularly like this kind of tactical arrangement. During the Mourinho period, Jin Yuan was a winger, a winger who could change positions frequently. Mourinho always had such players, and during the Porto period, there was Maniche. During the Chelsea period, there was Robbendaeff. During the Inter Milan period, there were no real wingers, but Eto Opandev and others were also very powerful in playing wide. Real Madrid had Cristiano Ronaldo, Di Maria and others in the early stage, and then there were Jin Yuan and Bell, it can be said that such wingers can exert their greatest offensive power.
But after the winger became a full-back, it was completely different. Jin Yuan's current running range is near the midfield line of the midfield. You know, he has always been in the frontcourt before.
Moreover, Benitez asked the two of them to run more, which didn't matter to Jin Yuan, but running into the backcourt to assist in defense significantly reduced the chance of participating in the offense. In this way, it was obvious that Jin Yuan There are fewer opportunities to touch the ball, shoot, and dribble.
Even more often, Jin Yuan can only be in the half court behind him. Looking at Azpilicueta, who used to be behind him, is now basically beside him, Jin Yuan is very uncomfortable.
However, the advantage of this is that after consolidating the defense and more people participating in the defense, Real Madrid's door becomes stronger. If they want to break Real Madrid, Valencia failed to do it in this game, but again, the formation changes Real Madrid also failed to break through Valencia's goal within ninety minutes. Benitez's first game ended with a score of 0:0. After that, Herrera and Paco performed in this game one after another. Real Madrid's first show failed to help the team score. Jin Yuan and Lewandowski also failed to score. Benitez's first show as coach of Real Madrid was not considered a success.
Next, Real Madrid will face two championship games, namely the Spanish Super Cup and the European Super Cup. If Real Madrid wants to win the Super Six Crown like Barcelona, ??they must win these three games.
But the opponents should not be underestimated, because Real Madrid won both the Spanish Football League and the Spanish Cup last season, so the Super Cup opponent is the King's Cup opponent Barcelona, ??and the one who won the Europa League last season was Tottenham Hotspur.
The Spanish Super Cup will start after the first round of the league. In the first round, Real Madrid went to an away game to challenge Barcelona. Barcelona defeated Real Madrid 2:1 with the goals of Neymar and new aid Fierro. Real Madrid only wanted to win. It was time to make a splash in the second round. It was Lewandowski who scored for Real Madrid. After receiving Jin Yuan's cross, he scored with a header.
One draw and one loss in the two games suddenly pushed Real Madrid's new coach Benitez to the forefront. Although Benitez is an old man from Real Madrid, if the record does not show any results, even if he is Real Madrid's benefactor, the fans will I won't give him much patience. You know, Real Madrid has great expectations for winning the sixth crown this year.
After this focus game, Jin Yuan accepted an interview with the media. During the interview, some media tested Jin Yuan's views on the new coach. Jin Yuan frankly admitted that he has not adapted to Benitez's tactics well at present, but time Will tell everyone everything. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
