Chapter 466 Selection
This kind of defense is not enough to reassure Mourinho, and in many positions of Real Madrid, Mourinho is not satisfied, and he is not satisfied with the team's tactical execution rate in terms of offensive and defensive transitions.

First of all, I won’t say much about the old bomber Pepe. Let’s talk about the configuration of the full-backs. Real Madrid’s current main full-backs are Ramos on the right and Marcelo on the left.

Ramos himself is a central defender with strong defensive ability and strong fighting will, but his assist ability is not very strong. Marcelo is strong in offense and weak in defense. In Mourinho's view, Marcelo is A reckless man, he can go up but can't come back, and he may bury his teammates at any time.

Mourinho's favorite defender is Inter Milan. If he were to bring Inter Milan's defense to Real Madrid, Mourinho would be very happy, with Maicon on the right and Zanetti on the left. Not only has assist ability, but also has strong defensive ability.

In Chelsea Mourinho is God is the most special one, he brought a lot of things to Chelsea, Abramovich is the boss, but Mourinho left the deepest mark there, the Blues under him Possesses a good characteristic that many Premier League teams do not often have. The team's tactical execution rate is very strong, which is the same as he was in Inter Milan, Italy.

It is very difficult to achieve this in Real Madrid. Real Madrid players seem to have a courageous heart buried in their chests. Why did Mourinho insist on introducing three German players this season, because the Germans are also Natural tactical execution rate is strong, Khedira behaves well in the midfielder position, and will not show off twice like Las Diarra, and really regards himself as a B2B midfielder.

In terms of offense, Mourinho's creation is more about the characteristics of the players, but in defense, he believes that Italy's inherited defensive concept is quite worth learning. To achieve this, the whole team must have a good sense of tactical execution .

In this regard, Mourinho believes that his Real Madrid team is not that strong, and the time is not enough for him to build this Real Madrid team into a team with a strong defensive tactics execution rate.

The reason why Barcelona's pass-control penetration style of play is always unfavorable is that the opponent's defense has too many loopholes, and they can always find a way to deal with it. Mourinho can be proud. He is in Chelsea and Inter Milan, because of his defense The concept can always be executed very well, so in fact, when he played against Barcelona, ​​he had a certain upper hand overall.

Now that the national derby is coming, Mourinho has no bottom, which is rare. He is hesitant about what formation and personnel he should choose to face Barcelona.

Before the game against Ajax, Mourinho had practiced the tactic of three midfielders. There is no way he didn’t think that Inter Milan’s 4231 can fight against Barcelona, ​​so Real Madrid’s 4231 must do it. On the contrary, he thinks it can’t , what to do if it doesn’t work.

When he was at Chelsea, he also had three defensive midfielders in his midfield, which tormented Barcelona. Now he wants to adopt the same method. Of course, there are shortcomings. Real Madrid’s three midfielders must be The lack of forward speed is not the same as Chelsea back then.

In those years, the Chelsea he led had a fast offensive and defensive transition, relying on the midfielder, can Real Madrid do it? !
After the match against Ajax, Mourinho spent a whole day explaining tactics to everyone, mainly for defense. He still didn’t make up his mind to use three defensive midfielders. He chose to continue to use the 4231 formation , but Ozil's position is closer to the two midfielders.

He chooses this way because he feels that it is not easy to choose a midfielder for defense. He is really not able to use many people who are injured or emotional.

The second is that he is unwilling to defend only. He is really unwilling. Now that he is coaching Real Madrid, deep down in his heart, he really wants to go up and fight Barcelona. The purpose of keeping Ozil is for the next time. .

However, defensive counterattacks, the routines he is good at still have to be used. Going to the Nou Camp, Mourinho thought that it would be good to force a draw, and he could even accept a small loss. One fight, next time he will definitely find his way back.

Of course, he would not tell the players these thoughts, but he kept encouraging everyone, "Barcelona has brought us painful memories these years, this time is a chance for everyone to prove themselves and avenge their hatred, I want everyone of you to join forces, we are not there for a game, but for honor and the dignity of Real Madrid!"

There is nothing special about Mourinho's offensive arrangement. The three forwards withdraw, and the distance between the midfielder and the midfielder should be shortened so that they can receive the ball at any time.

In fact, Mourinho still changed direction and asked the front line to actively return to defense. Zhang Yuan did not agree with his approach from the bottom of his heart. He hoped that Mourinho would directly let you go in front of him like Slomka did back then. A counter-attacking striker who can swim around, doesn't think about anything after stealing the ball in the midfield, and directly looks for the striker. It can also reduce the defensive pressure. Now Mourinho's formation does not look like a defensive defense.

What Mourinho thinks is different from what Zhang Yuan thinks. In this game, he especially wants a Drogba-style center forward, who can be used as a fulcrum, can be directly used as an offensive point, and has a British tough style of play against France. Barcelona is also good, and the speed forward has never been his special reliance.

Chelsea sold Robben that year, and he used a lot of speed forwards in Inter Milan.

If Zhang Yuan knew what Mourinho was thinking, he would definitely slander: It is obviously a defensive counterattack, why not make good use of the speed forward? !
Zhang Yuan thinks that he and Ronaldo can form a good partner. The two of them are in front of each other. It doesn't matter if Real Madrid's nine players defend. After a game, they will always catch some of Barcelona's loopholes.

Zhang Yuan couldn't figure it out but he had no choice but to question Mourinho's tactical issues before the war unless his head twitched.

Mourinho’s problems are not limited to these. During the training after the game with Ajax, Higuain felt discomfort in the waist. After the examination, he had lumbar disc herniation. Higuain also rested in the middle of the week. Originally, Mourinho was I planned to let the striker take a break to deal with the national derby, but I didn't expect to have a problem with the rest.

With his injury, Mourinho has a headache about who to choose as a center. Benzema is not in good condition, but now he is the only one left. Of course, there is another choice is Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan has not been a center for some days. In the national team are not playing the center position.

Mourinho expressed doubts. At the same time, he was unwilling to let Zhang Yuan go to the middle. Zhang Yuan's ability to compete for the top is a problem. Going to the middle would imprison Zhang Yuan's athletic ability instead, which is not as good as playing on the side.

After much deliberation, Mourinho finally decided to replace Higuain with Benzema. The center position is regarded as a dead horse as a living horse doctor. He can only hope that Benzema, who has been active in recent training, can play his due role.

Mourinho soon had the score in his mind, and generally those players were also very clear.

The Spanish media paid a lot of attention to this game, and they were all about the Derby. However, the players of Real Madrid were given a gag order, and no one was allowed to say more. Mourinho went to the battle alone to play psychological warfare.

He told the media that Barcelona may have to wait three to 40 years to win the Champions League trophy at the Bernabeu. This is what happened last year. Many players in Real Madrid have painful memories of Barcelona, ​​but Mourinho is not. Still have the upper hand.

He lost at Camp Nou last season, but knocked Barcelona out of the Champions League, which is held at the Bernabeu. If Barcelona were crowned Champions League champions at the Bernabeu, it could be a big deal for Real Madrid. It is a permanent shame, it was Mourinho who helped Real Madrid avoid such an embarrassment, and now Mourinho is bringing up the old matter again, nothing more than declaring that I am here, you don't want to get good from Real Madrid.

Barcelona did not issue a gag order, and Busquets told reporters: "As long as he is happy, we don't care what he said! We have no interest in him!"

Mourinho suffered a bit, but he soon found a place, which relied on Maradona.

Maradona came to Madrid to visit Aguero. Aguero and his daughter are a pair. They gave birth to a son Benjamin last year. By the way, Maradona came to Real Madrid.
