Chapter 12 La Liga Heroes

Chapter 12 La Liga Heroes

Barcelona's biggest enemy in Spanish football is still Real Madrid. Last season, they bought star players such as Jin Maoluo and Kaka in luxury. Although Li reached the final, he eventually lost to Real Madrid led by Degan. This was a very embarrassing result for Florentino, who wanted to build a new Galacticos.

So Pellegrini dismissed get out of class, and Mourinho, whom Florentino has always admired, came to the Bernabeu. In the new season, Real Madrid will not be reconciled to continue to submit to Barcelona in the league. The cleaning and replenishment of a large number of personnel is inevitable.

After spending crazily last season, Real Madrid's move in the transfer market in the new season is obviously much smaller, and the highest transfer fee is only the purchase of Benfica's Argentine winger Di Maria for 25 million euros.

For local rookies, Real Madrid made two very good deals. Canales had already been ordered by Real Madrid in advance after his outstanding performance at Racing Santander last season. The price of 6 million was simply a drop in the bucket. Taffy's outstanding right forward Pedro Leon also came to Real Madrid for 10 million. German star Khedira brought the heat of the World Cup with 14 million. Relatively bloated.

The transformation of the defense, after chasing Maicon failed, Real Madrid signed Mourinho's old man Carvalho from Chelsea, so that Ramos will return to the right, just when people thought that Real Madrid's summer transfer will be At this point, Real Madrid signed Ozil with one year left in his contract at a price of 1,500 yuan and who had shined in the World Cup.

With the arrival of Mourinho, the captain and vice-captain Raul and Guti have left one after another. The authority here is only one Mourinho except Florentino. All players must serve his tactics, even Jin Maoluo No exception.

In the new season, in Mourinho's tactics, he will no longer play a center forward, but retreat to the wing. In Mourinho's tactics, he focuses on defense, so Real Madrid's weak defense will be significantly improved. Casilla Ramos is the strong guarantee of the final barrier, Ramos is the first choice of right back, Pepe, Albiol, Carvalho will compete for the position of the two main central backs, the left back is what Mourinho most wants to transform In one position, Marcelo's defense is too poor, and Arbeloa's assists are not good. If they want to complete the renovation of the defense line, Real Madrid still needs to continue to strengthen in this position.

In the midfield, Alonso will be the absolute candidate for the main midfielder, and the other defensive midfielder will be occupied by the newcomer Khedira. If both Gago and Las Diarra stay, they can strengthen the depth of the bench .

Whether in Porto, Chelsea, or Inter Milan, Mu Bird's team has a large number of defensive midfielders, and the destruction and interception of the midfield is crucial to the protection of the defense.

Another attacking midfielder position, if Kaka can't play, Ozil and Canales will compete, but Mourinho's requirements for the attacking midfielder are also very high. He doesn't need that kind of aura. It is a comprehensive engineer-type midfielder, the thin Ozil and the young Canales, and even Kaka's ability to adapt to Mourinho's tactical requirements is still unknown. Once they perform poorly, Granero, who is both offensive and defensive, may have a chance.

The two wingers will be Golden Mauro and Di Maria, but people are not very optimistic about Di Maria, who shined in the World Cup. His body is too thin and his vision is not wide enough. His trip to the Bernabeu has not yet started. It has been considered by many people to be parallel imports.

The main force at the center position is still Higuain, who has a very high scoring efficiency. Gan joined Real Madrid's old enemy Barcelona, ​​which made Mourinho very regretful. Now, he can only turn his attention to other people.

Judging from the configuration of Real Madrid's lineup and Mourinho's tactical system, Real Madrid's offense in the new season will not be as good as last season. improve.

In the long season of multi-line combat, the depth of Real Madrid's bench will give Mourinho a lot of choices. Real Madrid's goal in the new season is still to regain the league championship, but facing Barcelona with Degan, Real Madrid's goal wants to It may not be easy to realize.

In addition to Real Madrid, the biggest opponent, there are several teams in Spanish football that cannot be ignored. Among them, Sevilla has performed the best in recent seasons.

In the past few seasons, Sevilla has achieved very good results, whether in the league or in the European arena. The shrewd chairman Del Nido has sold Alves, Keita and other stars in the team in recent years. It has obtained quite substantial economic benefits, and at the same time bought some powerful players at a low price to ensure the balance of the team lineup.

But last season Sevilla fought on three fronts, the lack of bench depth and abnormal performance in key games made them eliminated by CSKA Moscow in the Champions League. Due to the poor record, coach Jimenez dismissed get out of class and assistant coach Alvarez took over. In the last round of the league, they were lucky to squeeze out Mallorca to qualify for the Champions League, continuing Sevilla's strength in recent years.

In the new season, Sevilla's first choice of tactics should still be 442, and 451 if they encounter a strong team. Of course, Sevilla's offense has always relied on two sharp wings to initiate a rapid advance.

In terms of team lineup, the goalkeeper is still captain Palop, right back Conco, left back Fernando Navarro, center back Escuder can also play left back, another French center back Schillaci may switch For Arsenal, the Argentine tall central defender Fazio and the aging Dragutinovic and the newcomer Carla will be on the bench. The newly joined French defender Dabo can play on both sides. Against Sevilla Would be a nice addition too.

In the midfield, midfielder Zocora focuses on defense, Renato balances offense and defense, Romaric and the newly joined Italian midfielder Guarente are better at organizing, and the two wings are still the source of Sevilla's offense. Keylor Navas and Perotti on the left are both fast and good at breaking through and creating murderous intentions. Capel and the Italian midfielder Chigalini on loan can both play on the left and right.

On the forward line, Brazilian striker Fabiano has been subject to transfer rumors in the summer, and finally chose to stay. Canoute, who is popular with fans, will be 33 years old, but his condition is still very good.

This season, Sevilla's more realistic goal is to guarantee the top four in the league. It is indeed difficult to achieve this goal, but Sevilla's achievements in recent years are obvious to all. The league must at least guarantee the qualification for the Champions League. With the stability of Sevilla in the past few years, it should not be a problem. If they play well, they should be the team most capable of attacking Barcelona and Real Madrid.

In addition to Sevilla, there is also the opportunity and strength to challenge Barcelona and Real Madrid. Valencia, the former La Liga giant, sold Silva, the core of the team this summer, to ease the financial crisis. The old heroes Marchena and Baraja were sent away, and the Bat Corps began a new blood change.

It was a surprise that Villa finally stayed. At the same time, former Real Madrid striker Soldado was introduced. At the same time, the team also introduced Montpellier's Argentine midfielder Tino Costa as Silva's replacement. By.

Last season, Soldado scored 20 goals despite Getafe being injured for two months, showing the efficiency of the striker. In the new season, he will challenge Villa's main position.

And Tino Costa has performed well in Ligue 1 in the past two seasons. His free kicks and assists are very good. He is a substitute for Silva in the position of the midfielder. Play to your own level.

For Valencia, who won the third place in the league last season, after the team sold several core players, the goal in the league in the new season is to keep the qualification for the European war, the top six in the league and the top four in the league, and the Champions League. Strive to qualify for the group stage.

Valencia's head coach Unai Emery focused on rehearsing the new 433 in the summer warm-up match. In the original 4231 tactic, the positions of Mata and Pablo Hernandez on the wings will increase scoring points in advance. The center needs to often Retreat to take the ball, and enjoy passing the ball from the two wings to score from the back. The midfielder is a defensive midfielder, an organizational midfielder, and an attacking midfielder.

In terms of team lineup, goalkeeper Cesar, right back Bruno, Miguel substitute, center back captain David Navarro and Alexis, Portugal international Ricardo Costa and a midfielder who can serve as a center back Maduro rotates, Dilbert substitutes, the main left back is the Frenchman Mathieu who performed well last season, Del Horno is continued to be loaned to Levante, left forward Alba will be transformed into a left back substitute .

In terms of midfield, veteran Albelda will still be the first choice for defensive midfielders. Turkish midfielder Topal still needs time to adapt to the rhythm of La Liga. Banega, who performed well last season, will become the core of Valencia's midfield in the new season. His steals and organization are excellent. In the new season, he will take over Silva's No. 21 jersey. And the Argentine midfielder Tino Costa, who has French nationality, will occupy another position in the midfield. When playing 433, he needs to retreat and defend more. If you play 4231, the Argentine Domingos can play the midfielder. On the right side of the two wings is Pablo Hernandez, who is excellent in passing and shooting, and on the left is Mata, who is good at breaking through and grabbing points. Ya or Soldado.

As the traditional giants of Spanish football, Atletico Madrid, although the performance in the past few years is not satisfactory, but in recent seasons, there has been a strong recovery momentum.

In the case of limited funds this summer, Atletico Madrid still invested heavily in the introduction of two important defensive players, Luis Felipe of Deportivo and the main central defender Godin of the Uruguayan national team from Villarreal. The arrival of Atletico Madrid will improve the problem of Atletico Madrid's poor defense.

The Portuguese international Thiago, who was on loan from Juventus last season, has adapted to the team well and performed well in the World Cup. He will continue to play for the Sheets on loan in the new season.

The other few transfers are very cost-effective deals for young players with great potential. Merida, a free transfer from Arsenal, bought back Mario Suarez, a midfielder who performed well in Mallorca last season. As well as Valladolid's Brazilian striker Diego Costa, Uruguayan striker Forlan, who performed well in the World Cup, is also staying on the team, which is good news for Atletico Madrid.

Atletico Madrid's performance in the league last season disappointed the fans who overestimated it. The unstable performance and poor defense affected their performance, and they only ranked eighth in the league.

In the new season, Atletico Madrid has increased investment in the transformation of the defense, aiming to hit the top three in the league. The outstanding performance of the core player Diego Forlan in the World Cup also made the fans place higher expectations on the Sheets.

But for Atletico Madrid, how to get rid of the problem of unstable performance and improve the defensive system is the problem that coach Flores needs to solve.

In terms of lineup, the goalkeeper is the young De Gea, who saved a penalty in his debut against Zaragoza in the league last year. After Flores took office, he has always occupied the position of the main goalkeeper, and the original main goalkeeper Rising star Asenjo was seriously injured for five months and had to continue to wait for opportunities on the bench after recovering from his injuries. Atletico Madrid has two young goalkeepers with potential at the same time, which is also a kind of happy trouble.

The right-back will be played by the Czech international. Digan's former teammate Ujfalusi will return to his old job in Fiorentina, and Barella will be on the bench. Colombian defender Luis Perea and veteran Juanito, who made mistakes last season, served as substitutes. New Brazilian Luis Felipe will be the main force at left-back, while former captain Antonio Lopez will come on as a substitute, and he has a good free-kick.

In terms of midfield, the choice of double midfielders will be Paulo Assuncao and Thiago, the former is defensive, the latter is both offensive and defensive, while Mario Suarez and the young Ignacio Camacho can be rotated play. The main force on the right side of the two wings is Reyes, and the versatile teenager Merida on the left will be entrusted with important tasks.

Forlan and Aguero are still the main force on the forward line, with Brazilian striker Diego Costa as a substitute.

The strength of Villarreal, once a sensation in European football, should not be underestimated. After sending away three veterans Pires, Ibagaza and Venta, and transferring center Llorente and midfielder Eguren at a low price , The yellow submarine continued to exchange blood, and sold the team's main central defender Godin.

In terms of introducing players, it is either on loan or through free transfer. In short, what they do is to make careful transactions and maintain financial balance.

In terms of the team lineup, the main goalkeeper is still Diego Lopez, the right back Angel, the main center back Gonzalo Rodriguez and the new star Musacchio, the left back Capdevila, Yoan. Oriol served as a substitute. The backup guard Katara can play multiple positions in the defense.

The main midfielder is Bruno Soriano. The former international footballer Senna will gradually fade out of the main lineup due to his age and injuries, but his experience is still a valuable asset for the team. The front midfielder Carney sits on the left side of the center, and Cazorla is responsible for breaking through on the right.

On the forward line are Nierma and Giuseppe Rossi. They have already been selected for their respective national teams at a young age. American striker Altidore and Argentine star Marco Ruben promoted by the second team served as substitutes.

Although many veterans have been left and young players have been used, this may affect their performance, but the submarines in the new season may also give people a refreshing feeling.

There are also many teams that will play the role of spoilers in the new season. Among them, Mallorca is the most anticipated. Because Mallorca fell into a serious financial crisis this summer, it filed for bankruptcy with a debt of 60 million US dollars, including tennis superstar Nadal. Several shareholders, including the current owner Sierra Ferrer, took over to save the hometown team.

However, UEFA still announced the disqualification of Mallorca's qualification to participate in the Europa League in the new season, and Villarreal will replace it. You maintained a stable ranking, they even almost qualified for the Champions League last season, and finally won the fifth place in the league.

In the new season, Mallorca has sold many main players in the team, including forward Aduriz who played well last season, midfielder Mario Suarez, and midfielder Bol who performed well on loan from West Bromwich Albion. Ha Barreiro didn't stay either.

In the summer, they only signed the former Deportivo Canadian midfielder De Guzman from Feyenoord for free. It is rumored that Rivaldo will return to La Liga to join Mallorca, but there is no news in the end.

Former head coach Manzano also announced his departure from the team. Fortunately, they appointed former Getafe coach Mikel Laudrup as the head coach, which played a role in stabilizing the morale of the army. Laudrup coached two years ago Getafe led the team to achieve good results. For Mallorca, which sells off its main players every year but still achieves good results, the serious financial crisis will make the club's situation in the new season even more confusing.

After recent years of development, Getafe has gradually developed from an underdog who has been relegated every year to an important force in Spanish football. In the new season, they sold the team's top scorer Soldado and the sharp knife Pedro on the right. . Leon, brought in 20 million income, which can economically guarantee their financial stability for a small club like Getafe.

In terms of introducing players, only spent 2.5 million to buy striker Colunga from Huelva to replace Soldado, and the rest of the transfers were free agents and loans.

Since being promoted to the first division, Getafe has been playing the role of a dark horse. They have made Bayern suffer in the UEFA Cup. Even in the face of La Liga giants Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​they are not at a disadvantage.

Reasonable tactics, teamwork, tenacious style, and smooth cooperation make every opponent dare not underestimate him. In terms of team building, Getafe is a model for small clubs.

Can't buy players without money?

Haven't you seen so many young players with potential from the big brothers in the same city?

All they need is the opportunity to show themselves by playing on the field, so Granero, De La Reid, Soldado, Miguel Torres, Cordina, and Valrejo, who can't play in Real Madrid, all come. Yes, adapting is not a problem at all, it is equivalent to playing La Liga without any pressure by changing clothes.

After performing well, they will be sold back to Big Brother in the second year, asking for some processing fees to make ends meet. This is how life is lived, and it is very nourishing. It seems to have become a satellite club of Big Brother, as the saying goes.

As a member of Real Madrid, the chairman of Getafe, Angel Torres, does have a shrewd business philosophy, attaches great importance to the cultivation of young local players, and buys some powerful players at a low price. It also allowed the team to deliver excellent results on the basis of relegation.

Of course, this is also related to the appointment of several excellent head coaches. Except for Victor Munoz who almost led the team to relegation, the other head coaches are Keke Flores, Schuster and Mikel Lauder Rupp has led Getafe to achieve good results, and the former two have used this bridge to step into giants like Valencia and Real Madrid.

The current head coach, former Real Madrid legend Michel, also inherited his predecessors, leading Getafe to sixth place in the league last season.

For Getafe, their performance in the league may be affected due to their participation in the Europa League in the new season. It should not be very difficult for them to aim for the top eight in the league and strive to qualify for the European competition next season.

When it comes to clubs in Spain, one cannot fail to mention Athletic Bilbao. As a veteran team that has never been relegated from La Liga, it has won eight La Liga championships in history. Known for their tenacious fighting spirit, coupled with the momentum of San Mames, the Hell's home, many teams come here to feel trembling.

The team adheres to its own tradition, attaches great importance to youth training, only uses Basques, and refuses to introduce any foreign aid. The only exception is the first foreign black young player introduced by the team, Hamario.

The team's emphasis on the youth training camp, the training concept and the caring atmosphere are the only ones comparable to La Masia's youth training camp. In the new season, Echeberia, Armando retired, and the old captain Yester and Munho After leaving the team, the strength has declined, but the retirement and departure of the veterans just gave the young players room to grow. The two international players who participated in the World Cup, Javi Martinez and Llorente, will become the team's offensive. core.

The rise of new forces means that some old forces are weakening. Deportivo is basically a benchmark. In the new season, Deportivo's economic crisis has not been completely overcome. Chairman Rendoiro still makes a living by selling people .

The sale of Luis Felipe brought some income to Atletico Madrid. The team's old hero Sergio left after his contract expired. Former La Liga Golden Boot Mista and Mexican striker Bravo went to the American Major League for gold , Equatorial Guinea striker Bodip was loaned to the Romanian team. The departure of several big names also reduced Depor's salary burden. Still hovering in the middle.

The Espanyol is also a traditional strong team in Spanish football. With the departure of the old captain Tamudo in the new season, he will be replaced by former Spanish international Sergio Garcia, who transferred from Betis and returned to Catalonia. His arrival It is expected to improve the Spaniard's weak offensive line. The defense line sold the Argentine Pareja at a high price of 10 million, and his compatriot Flynn will become the core of the defense line.

In the midfield, Moises and the rookie Xavi Marquez, who performed well last season, form a double midfielder, Verdu and Callejon, and Luis Garcia form the main starting point of the frontcourt attack, and Faye de la Pena serves as the main attacking point. As a substitute, his free kicks and direct passes can help the team, and the former Argentine international Datolo, who is on loan from Naples, can increase the strength of the Spaniard's midfield.

On the forward line, Osvaldo will stay in the team. He will compete with Sergio Garcia and Ivan Alonso for the main forward position.

The remaining few teams, in the new season, I am afraid that they will fight for relegation. Since Almeria was promoted to the first division in 2007, it has been firmly in the middle of La Liga.

Under the supervision of the former head coach Emery, this civilian team has survived the troubled times of La Liga by virtue of its tenacious style of play and stable home performance.

Almeria's signings are mainly to buy some potential foreign players from South America at a low price, looking for strong local Mesozoic players, Melo, Negredo, Bruno and other star players are here to shine and enter the big team , This year they sold the team's main defender Chico.

In the new season, head coach Hugo Sanchez will lead Almeria to continue to play steadily and strive to give satisfactory answers to the fans.

Osasuna, like Athletic Bilbao, is located in the Greater Basque Country, but unlike Athletic Bilbao who insist on using Basque players, this club has introduced a large number of foreign aid, and has been relegation and dark horse in the past few seasons In the past two seasons, it has stabilized and improved.

Last season, they terminated the contract with striker Portillo. In the summer, they sold the quasi-Spanish international main right back Azpilicueta and goalkeeper Roberto. With the introduction of Real Sociedad goalkeeper Lesgo, Betis' former Barcelona right back Damia, Almeria's midfielder Fernando Soriano and Belgrade Red Star's Serbian striker Lekic, the strength of the team has not changed. Great, coach Camacho can lead the team to maintain a relatively stable performance in the middle of the league.

Since Sporting Gijon was promoted to the first division in 2008, it has been very successful for two consecutive seasons. In the league, it has won the favor of many neutral fans with its style of daring to fight against its opponents. It's either you or me, and Sporting rarely gets a draw.

In the new season, they signed two former Barcelona players Nuovo and Botia, as well as Villarreal's Uruguayan midfielder Eguren. Their goal is to try to get rid of the threat of being in the relegation circle.

As a traditional force in Spanish football, Racing Santander's performance in recent seasons has been difficult to satisfy. Last season, Santander was thrilled to avoid relegation. Rookie Canales went to Real Madrid, and defender Auriol also left. The team is still on loan and signing free agents in the transfer market.

Brazilian central defender Enrique continued to play on loan, and Adrian Gonzalez, the son of Getafe coach Michel, came to play as a free agent. The team's lineup has not changed much.

In fact, with the strength of Racing Santander, if they play well, they can still reach the mid-range. This team pays attention to the overall defense of the team. , Alana and Munitis are both good side breakthrough players, and Qiqi also has a good scoring ability. Of course, at present, the team's primary task in the new season is to keep relegation.

After Zaragoza returned to La Liga, the only two signings were to buy out the Italian defender Contini who was on loan last season for 2 million, and sign the former Argentine goalkeeper Franco for free. The goal of the new season is still to fight for relegation.

Malaga was almost relegated this season. In the new season, the team recruited some foreign aid from South America to strengthen their strength. Their goal for the new season is only two words: relegation.

The Real Sociedad, which once flourished in La Liga, is no longer as brave as it used to be. In 2007, Real Sociedad was relegated. The team that used to have De Pedro, Harvey Alonso, Nihat, Cole Vacevic's Real Sociedad has long stayed in the fans' memories.

After a lapse of three years, they returned to the first division. The Basque Derby in the new season will add more highlights. This summer they successfully signed the yellow submarine's high center forward Youceba Llorente at a low price, Spain The veteran Raul Tamudo of the Humans also came to shoot in free agency, and the strength of the striker has greatly increased. In the new season, they need to do a good job of defense, and on the premise of striving to avoid relegation, they can achieve unexpected results and act as dark horses.

Hercules, this newly promoted team is very unfamiliar to many people, but the team's name is very good, which means Hercules, and the boss is willing to invest. He signed Paraguayan striker Valdez from Dortmund to participate in the World Cup. Former Real Madrid striker Portillo, Getafe's right back Cortez, Cameroon's defender Sarr and some other players, Hercules' goal in the new season is to avoid relegation.

Levante has been promoted to the first division and relegated in the past few years, and now he has been promoted again. He signed a lot of free agents in the summer to increase the strength of the team. Laga's goalkeeper Munua, Espanyol's midfielder Bardo on loan, Malaga's midfielder Javi Torres, and left-back Del Horno and midfielder Nathan on loan from big brother Valencia. Joe Gonzalez. In short, I will use all the players who are not needed by the first-tier teams and the players who cannot be the main force. I will try to use their experience and motivation to help the team avoid relegation.

The curtain of the new season of La Liga is about to kick off, and all the tycoons have made their final preparations, and they are waiting for the start of the season to show their talents.
