football's number one madman

Chapter 231 The super defender who can score goals!

The 2015-2016 La Liga season has finally come to an end.

Valencia won the championship again after a lapse of 12 years. Barcelona and Real Madrid are ranked second and third, and Atletico Madrid is ranked fourth. The Champions League next season can only start from the play-offs.

During Valencia's preparations for the Copa del Rey, La Liga officials also announced the honors of this season for the first time.

Although Suarez was suspended for many games because of the biting incident, Suarez, who scored crazy goals in the last ten rounds, still won the league's Golden Boot with 41 goals without any suspense. Cristiano Ronaldo with 36 goals can only be second second.

Although Li Polo has worked very hard and Nuno Santo often let him act as a striker, he still failed to fight these two goal brushes. He played a total of 33 league games this season (starting 28 games), Only scored 31 goals, ranking third in the scorer list.

In terms of assists, he is even more pitiful, with only 5 times, and he directly ranks tied for 33rd in the assist list.On this list, Suarez and Messi each sent 15 assists, sharing the honor of assist king.

However, he has almost monopolized the number one position in the league in terms of defensive statistics such as headers, interceptions, and steals. It's a pity that there is no league that will specifically award personal trophies to the "header king" and "stealer king"...

Among the 11 best players of the season officially selected by La Liga, Valencia, as the champion, only had captain Parejo and first thigh Li Polo selected. Instead, Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid each contributed three players.

Goalkeeper: Oblak

Defenders: Juan Fran, Li Polo, Godin, Marcelo
Midfielders: Modric, Parejo, Busquets

Forwards: Ronaldo, Suarez, Messi.

——In fact, Valencia still suffers from too many injuries. If Mustafi, Gaya, and Cancelo can remain healthy and stable, they might be able to turn the entire defense line into Valencia's Quadruple!
After seeing this list, Nuno Santo rarely said something with high emotional intelligence:

"Messi is just eating his laurels! How can his scoring efficiency compare with our Paco?"

"If Paco moves to Barcelona, ​​Messi will substitute you in minutes!"

Regardless of whether he is telling the truth or not, anyway, Paco's favorability for this bearded man will explode in an instant!
In the selection of the best player of the season, whether it is Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, Griezmann, or Li Polo, who is both offensive and defensive, they all lost to Suarez who had 41 goals and 15 passes.

The suspension did not sink this beast, but instead made him the scariest monster in the entire La Liga!

At least in terms of offensive data, the Uruguayans have no opponents in Europe! -
"Sevilla's rankings have not been ideal this season, but we all know they are a tough nut to crack."

In tactics class, assistant coach Rui Pedro was analyzing the final opponents:

"Their style is somewhat similar to ours. Fast flank attacks, especially the right flank, are their focus of attack, but...they don't have Figuli."

Fei Tianwang, who was praised, laughed cheerfully. Li Polo, who was sitting next to him, touched his bald head, but he didn't respond.

Just listen to Pedro continue to analyze:
"They are good at creating opportunities through counterattacks and through balls. This requires our defense to be highly vigilant. However...we have the two central defenders who can tackle and intercept the best in the entire league. I hope you will not let your teammates down."

Lee Polo and Mustafi nodded at the same time.

Both of them are guards who are particularly good at attacking. Although their characteristics and functions overlap a bit, they are really invincible in frontal defense!

Volo turned on the projector and analyzed the opponent's players in detail:

"Sevilla doesn't have many strikers to choose from, only Llorente, Gameiro, and the veteran Reyes. Reyes probably won't start. As for the other two, they are completely two types of players. Lunt is tall and has an outstanding header, while Gameiro is flexible and relies on excellent running positions to complete the fatal blow. He has scored 14 goals this season and is Sevilla's top scorer. Our defense , you must maintain a high degree of concentration at all times, and don't lose his position easily!"

Although he was talking about the "defense line", his eyes stayed on Mustafi for several seconds, because everyone knew that this German central defender would appear to be distracted from time to time...

Mustafi blushed slightly on his fair face, and quickly expressed his opinion to the coaches:
"I understand, coach!"

Volo nodded slightly, and continued to explain:
"They are likely to hoard heavy troops in the midfield, so we must continue to strengthen the press. In fact, there is nothing to worry about in this regard. We have the advantage."

"On the back line, their two central defenders are more than ten centimeters apart in height. It is a combination of one tall and one fast. Paco, do you know what to do?"

Paco, who was called by name, lifted his spirits:
"Of course, coach! In terms of running positions and grabbing points, I will not be inferior to Gameiro!"

"You have to believe me, I am the fifth scorer in the league, 11 goals more than him!"

Nuno Santo added:
"Their defense in the penalty area is a bit rough, you can make fouls and make penalties!"
-
"This season, our performance in the league is somewhat disappointing, but fortunately we still have two championships to fight for, and we will definitely do our best."

On May 5, at the press conference before the game, Sevilla coach Unai Emery expressed his views:

The "two championships" in Emery's mouth, in addition to the Copa del Rey, there is also the Europa League. After coaching Sevilla in 2013, he has won the championship of this European competition twice in a row, and even let the Europa League The Cup became the "Sevilla Cup"...

This year, he led his team to the final of the Europa League for the third time. As long as he can defend the championship again, Sevilla will be able to qualify for the Champions League next season!

Therefore, the league rankings, the Copa del Rey, and the Europa League champions are all just floating clouds!
Of course he also commented on the opponent:
"We all know how good Valencia have been this season and tomorrow's final must be very difficult. Nuno Santo's tactics are simple and efficient, especially the well-known 'libero' style of play, allowing them to develop a team. A super defender with over 30 goals, that's an astonishing statistic!"

He nodded:
"Yes, Lee Polo is our biggest threat. If we can break through his defense, tomorrow's game will be much easier, but...the reality has proved that to achieve this goal, we must pay a lot of effort."
-
After seeing off Emery, Li Polo sat on the speaking table with Nuno.

Facing the camera, Nuno behaved as usual:

"Unai Emery is a champion coach. His successful record in the Europa League has proved this. He is very good at leading the team in cup competitions and has experienced countless big scenes. Tomorrow's game will be difficult, but we are full of confidence. confidence……"

The microphone came to Li Poluo's hands, and he directly denied the head coach's speech just now:

"Tomorrow's game will be extremely easy. Because Sevilla and us are not at the same level of team at all!"

Nuno sitting next to him was dumbfounded:

[Can you stop hitting my old face? 】

"A month ago, we beat them 2:1 in the league, but you have to remember that not only did I not play in that game, but many of our main players rested on the sidelines."

Lee Polo showed his iconic villain smile:

"Tomorrow, we will let them know how terrifying Valencia is with all the main players!"
