Chapter 372 He who wins the midfield wins the world!

Real Madrid's bench depth has an absolute advantage. If there is one thing about Real Madrid that Barcelona envies most, it must be Real Madrid's strong lineup depth.

Real Madrid has suffered no less injuries than Barcelona this season. Key players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Bale, and Modric have suffered injuries this season. However, Zidane has not deployed troops like Barcelona last season. They are stretched thin and their main players are absent, but Real Madrid will always have bench players to step up.

Real Madrid has had as many as 19 players score in the game this season, while Barcelona has scored 11 goals. This actually reflects the gap in strength between the two teams on the bench to a certain extent.

Although Barcelona carried out crazy signings in the summer, in fact, only Umtiti can really gain a foothold in Barcelona. The departure of Dani Alves at the right back position left Barcelona basically without a right back to replace.

Compared with Real Madrid, Barcelona's bench players also performed unsatisfactory on the court, and Enrique's substitution adjustments during the game were difficult to bring about substantial changes to the team.

For a team like Real Madrid and Barcelona that competes on three fronts and hopes to compete for championships on all three fronts, using bench players to rotate is very important to maintain the team's combat effectiveness.

For Real Madrid, which has many soldiers and generals, this is no longer a troublesome problem. Facing the Hercules of the third level of La Liga, Barcelona sent the team bench but was tied by the opponent, which also made Enrique Some main players must be eliminated in the second round.

There is no doubt that in the battle for lineup depth, Barcelona once again lost.

For the two teams in La Liga, confrontation is eternal, while strength and weakness are temporary. But for now, in the hard power contest between the two teams, Real Madrid has to overpower Barcelona.

But football is not static, and the competition between the two teams will not end with the two derbies.

The battle between the Royal Guards has always been the most focused drama in football in recent decades.

The rise of La Masia and the arrival of the Dream Team have given Barcelona enough voice to compete with Real Madrid, the official team, in La Liga. La Liga has gradually revealed a situation where the two heroes are competing for hegemony.

Although Atletico Madrid has also wanted to get a share of the pie in recent years, although Atletico Madrid is strong, there is still a certain gap with super strong teams like Real Madrid.

People always compare Barcelona and Real Madrid intentionally or unintentionally. Barcelona has the Dream Team, Real Madrid has the Galacticos, Barcelona has the Iron-Blooded Team, and Real Madrid has the loyal Raul.

Barcelona later had MSN, and Real Madrid also had the BBC, but fans always compare these two mortal enemies. Each fan wants to prove that their team is better.

Barcelona has pushed Real Madrid to the ground for several years and their face was almost bruised, but Real Madrid is truly unrivaled in the European competition.

Having said all this, I just want to say that the enemies of Barcelona and Real Madrid represent their respective governments and their respective nations. Every battle is a good opportunity to gain face for their own people. Their strengths and weaknesses must be distinguished. Of course, Whether you can tell the difference or not is another matter. Today, I will only compare, without distinguishing between high and low!

Striker: Real Madrid has BBC, Barcelona has MSN!

Last season, according to statistics from AS, Real Madrid achieved 9 wins and 1 draw in 10 games without at least one member of the BBC team starting the game. Among the opponents they defeated were Atletico Madrid and Sevilla. A strong enemy, just a draw with Las Palmas.

In the 9 games where the three BBC players started at the same time, Real Madrid's record was much worse, with only 5 wins and 4 draws. In the games against Villarreal, Eibar, Dortmund and Warsaw Legion In the game, Real Madrid failed to take away 3 points.

At the same time, when BBC all started, Real Madrid conceded 12 goals in 9 games, averaging 1.33 goals per game, and averaging 3 goals per game. However, when BBC failed to start all starts, Real Madrid conceded 10 goals in 10 games. Scored 9 goals, conceded 0.9 goals per game, and scored 3.2 goals per game.

Looking back at the MSN 14-15 season: 122 goals in 151 games, Messi 58 goals in 57 games, Neymar 39 goals in 51 games, Suarez 25 goals in 43 games. Since 2015, MSN has scored 126 goals for Barcelona, ​​of which Messi has 44 goals and 22 goals. Assists, Suarez 41 goals and 22 assists, Neymar 41 goals.

As far as this season is concerned: As of last night's game against Huang Qian, MSN has now reached 101 goals.

Of these 101 goals, half belong to Messi.

Messi scored 51 goals, including 35 goals in the league, 11 goals in the Champions League, 4 goals in the Copa del Rey and 1 goal in the Spanish Super Cup. Luis Suarez is the team's second-leading scorer, scoring 26 goals, 3 goals, 4 goals and 1 goal respectively in the Sussex League, Champions League, Copa del Rey and Spanish Super Cup.

Neymar scored 16 goals, and he scored 10 goals, 4 goals, and 2 goals in the league, Champions League, and Copa del Rey respectively. At Camp Nou last night, MSN entered an invincible runaway state.

Messi scored twice, and all of his goals were wonderful.

Messi first scored a powerful low shot after passing two people, and then scored a very beautiful spoon penalty.

Neymar broke the deadlock with a point in front of the goal. Before the end, he used a divine breakthrough to help Su Shen create a penalty kick.

Before the penalty kick was taken, Luis Suarez made another forced breakthrough and then volleyed hard.

The BBC Trident has only scored 40 goals against SN.

Ronaldo has begun to accept rotation. (Compared to Ronaldo, who is also older, and there is still a European war to play) Benzema's state is ups and downs, and Morata's scoring efficiency is much higher than that of the Frenchman.

Why not use it?

Qi Zu’s methods are really hard to understand, Bell! Hey~~ May injuries stay away from football.

From the comparison of the first season and the comparison of this season's statistics after last night's game, the strikers are like this. Who is better and who is worse, no comment.

The midfield includes the defensive midfielder, attacking midfielder, midfielder, and the left and right midfielders are an extremely important area.

As the saying goes: Those who win the midfield win the world. Barcelona a few years ago won the world. They attacked and defended completely. They counterattacked on the spot after losing the ball. They regained the ball in 8 seconds. The ball possession rate was simply 30-70 every game. Just like playing.

Perhaps it was because Barcelona's midfield was too brilliant at the time, coupled with the unparalleled Habaib midfielder's iron triangle, which controlled the ball and looked for opportunities. The frontcourt MVP, Henry, and Eto'o ended the battle. In those years, there was almost no iron barrel formation that Barcelona could not break.

When Harvey's departure has become a foregone conclusion, Mengsan is finally facing disintegration. We can't finish bragging about how awesome we were back then. It's time to take a look at our current group of young men.

The first to bear the brunt is naturally AG, who is highly used but still has unsatisfactory performance: good looks, tall height, and high worth. As an attacking midfielder, Gomez was still very good in the two seasons he played for the Bat Corps.

He made a total of 78 appearances: 63 in the league, 8 in the Copa del Rey, 4 in the Champions League and 3 in the Europa League.

AG performed well in Barcelona's 2-0 victory over Valencia in 2015 and attracted much attention. Then he came to Barcelona. Although he is an attacking midfielder, you are young and you have room for improvement.

After buying such a group of players, the meringues were originally intended to be bought back and used as rotation players. Although Lafite has been in the team for many years, his performance is obvious to all. Although he is amazing, he is still not useful.

Enrique took Gomez with the fourth pick in order to transform you. Uncle En has to leave his mark on Barcelona. Xiaobai, the old age of the professor has overwhelmed Barcelona's midfield, and Turan is relatively weak in the midfield. It seems that Neymar is more comfortable in that position.

The hot chicken's style of play is also a foregone conclusion. It is enough and easy to use. There is only one hot chicken. He still has to play Messi, and he has to attack and defend. How tiring!

So Uncle En's transformation of Gomez came into being.

After watching so many Barcelona games, Uncle En's transformation of Gomez was very targeted. To put it bluntly, he is the next Busquets.

Where is this? This is Barcelona, ​​one of the top teams in the world. Just like what Wang Tao and Sun Baojie said in the last game: This is a team where the coach adapts to the team rather than the team adapts to the coach. Not every player has his own system. Players It's not an adapter, you can just pull it out and use it, and it's not a playground for you to play on.

The most criticized thing about ag now is that his playing style is soft. This is already a well-known thing. He has a delicate dribbling, lacks overall perspective, and does not have a good ability to pass the ball forward.

However, ag plays football with confidence, vision, and structure. He is good at protecting the ball, confronting, advancing, and transferring. He is someone who is definitely not mediocre and can be valued by Barcelona.

Gomez has not yet fully integrated into Barcelona, ​​but his brace last time was a good start.

Rakitic: The pass and control of the hot chicken is not stable enough. To be more detailed, it means that in the interspersed process of passing and running, there is no top midfielder's ability to guide the attack. Raki is suitable to be the deputy and responsible for protection behind Messi. Roberto moves forward and then protects behind. The midfield hardness and coverage area he can provide are currently unmatched by Barcelona.

Lackey's shooting skills are not bad and he has a certain long-range shooting ability. Lackey's ball transfer accuracy is above average. As an organizing midfielder, Lackey's defensive position is very good. Barcelona should not have let go of Francesco that season.

What the hot chicken lacks is the passing ability of Fabregas.

However, Garbage has true love for Barcelona. This is obvious to all fans. As long as he can play, he will definitely work hard. This is also the reason why many fans became "hostile" to ag after it seized the position of hot chicken.

Rafinha: This time Alcantara played against Pia Alcantara. In fact, the current Lafite cannot be completely regarded as a midfielder. Lafite is more of a replacement for Messi after Messi retreats. The position becomes the right winger, providing offensive width to both wings with Neymar.

There is a reason why Lafite, as a Barcelona youth training player, still does not start much in the first team for so long, is a little anxious in his movements and lacks a sense of the overall situation.

But he is young and has a high upper limit. He is still great when dribbling the ball out of the way. However, he is not stable enough and is a little too sticky to the ball, but it is still enough as a rotation player.

Former coach Emery, who has resigned, may not have imagined that when he came to Sevilla three years ago, he would be able to win the Europa League for three consecutive years and not only break Juande Ramos (currently Malaga). The coach, who had previously led Sevilla to win the UEFA Cup (predecessor of the Europa League) for two consecutive years, also received a high-paying opportunity to Paris Saint-Germain.

So in the new season, will Sevilla usher in turmoil after losing their coach and captain (captain Koke transferred to Bundesliga Schalke 04)?

In fact, it was not the case. After 2000, Cyber ​​City returned to La Liga under the leadership of coach Caparros and experienced the short-term glory of Juande Ramos. At the same time, Marcelino (current coach of Villarreal) , Manzano (currently coach of Shanghai Shenhua), Mitchell (one of Real Madrid's five eagles, currently unemployed)'s "unqualified" season results.

But the team has never fallen out of the European war group.

All this is thanks to the fact that the only person who has not changed his position in the past 15 years in Sevilla in the new season is the sports director Monchi (who has survived 3 presidents and 9 head coaches).

From Alves, Baptista, Fabiano, Kanoute to Krechowiak, Gameiro and vice-captain Koke who left the team this summer, all are the results of Monchi's long-sleeved dance in the transfer market.

The battle between Real Madrid and Barcelona has always been the most focused drama in football in recent decades.

The rise of La Masia and the arrival of the Dream Team have given Barcelona enough voice in La Liga to compete with Real Madrid, the official team, and La Liga has gradually revealed a situation of two giants competing for hegemony.

Although Atletico Madrid has also wanted to get a share of it in recent years, although Atletico Madrid is strong, there is still a little gap with super teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona.

It can be said that Monchi is the source of Sevilla's competitiveness, but the club's top management lacks the determination to further challenge the La Liga order in decision-making, which also limits Monchi's possibility of achieving greater achievements.

Portuguese goalkeeper Beto, who returned to his parent club Sporting Lisbon this summer, certainly would not have thought that he could win the competition with "Octopus Brother" Diego Lopez. He actually gave up the starting position to two young players who are nearly 10 years younger than him, Sergio Rico and David Soria, because of injury.

The 22-year-old Sergio Rico entered the first team in 2014. During Beto's injury, he gradually established his position as the main goalkeeper. Moreover, Rico is a local player of Sevilla and comes from its own youth training.

After Navas left the team, the club finally found such a flag that can be cultivated and established for a long time.

The 23-year-old David Soria, who started his playing career in the youth teams of Real Madrid and Leicester City, came to Sevilla Sporting (Sevilla B team, promoted to the Spanish Second Division in the new season) in 2013. He was officially transferred to the first team during the winter break last season. As a result, he became the starting player in the Europa League and the King's Cup.

7 shutouts in 13 games, and two finals (Copa del Rey and Europa League), these two young players may continue to alternate in the league and other arenas in the new season, but who will be the winner in the end?

It is still hard to say.

Although he has been in Seville for a long time (since 2007), Argentine giant central defender Fazio returned to Pizjuan on loan from Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League last winter window, but still failed to play too many games.

There is also Italian teenager Marco Andreoli, who was loaned from Inter Milan but is basically recovering from a ruptured Achilles tendon. These two central defenders have returned to their old clubs this season (Fazio was loaned to Serie A Roma again).

In this position, the main personnel configuration of Seville last season has not changed. French international Lamy, who participated in the European Cup, and Portuguese Daniel Carrizo may compete for a main central defender position.

Lamy's personality and style of play are too impetuous. The latter missed most of the year last season due to injury, but played as a main force many times after his comeback.

Another main central defender position belongs to the 24-year-old young central defender Kolodzieczak, a frequent visitor to the French national team at the youth level.

He is still considering whether to accept the call-up of the Polish national team (his mother is a Polish player and he has not played for the French team in international A-level competitions).

In addition, Argentine central defender Pareja, who rarely played last season due to a ruptured cruciate ligament, still stayed in the team. The 32-year-old will be a trustworthy experienced player on the bench.

Sevilla transferred two right backs in the summer window - vice-captain Koke and Diogo Figueras.

Koke was an absolute main force in many fronts last season. His performance has been steadily improving since he joined the team in the 2011-2012 season. More importantly, he scored twice in the Europa League final last season.

However, the Brazilian Mariano's performance in the same position is not much inferior.

Koke also competed with right midfielder Vitolo (who took over as vice-captain this season) to get more playing opportunities, so this transfer did not have a big impact on the team's strength.

Figueras has been a substitute on the right side since he returned from a loan from Genoa halfway through last season.

After he moved to Olympiacos in Greece, the team immediately brought in 29-year-old Argentine full-back Mercado from River Plate.

On the left side, French defender Tremoulinas has been injured in the past two seasons, with four serious injuries last season alone. He may miss the early season games due to a torn meniscus.

In this case, Sergio Escudero will be the only genuine candidate for left back, and he performed quite well in this position last season.

Due to the departure of Krechowiak (high-priced transfer to Paris Saint-Germain to join Emery) and Banega (free transfer to Inter Milan), Sevilla's addition to the center in the summer window is both quality and quantity - a total of five players were introduced.

The defensive midfielder Kranevert, who was loaned from Atletico Madrid, is an active Argentine international who participated in this summer's Centennial America's Cup. Joaquin Correa and Hiroshi Kiyotake were both core players in their respective teams last season, but both of them have certain health problems. Hiroshi Kiyotake has not officially participated in the team's warm-up match due to injury. The last Japanese player who played for Sevilla, Hiroshi Ibusuki, only had a 7-minute La Liga appearance record. Although Hiroshi Kiyotake is not at this point, the competition within the team is still quite fierce.

Ganso, also a new aid, was once regarded as the "Santos Twins" together with Neymar. This time he made his debut in the European competition.

It just so happens that new coach Sampaoli prefers an organizational midfielder. If Ganso can adapt to the European rhythm, the main position should not be a big problem.

Sarabia, a Real Madrid youth training product who joined from Getafe, may become a rotating bench player.
