Chapter 73：CHAPTER 102 - Metamorphosis Over Ground (1)

Spain, the country of dazzling sun and passion.

After a lot of soccer stars had transferred and the summer was unusually hot, autumn began in earnest.

And once.

The cool breeze to cool off the sweat passed October.

The temperature dropped, but the heat became hotter than summer when the Champions League began.

The same is true of the Spanish First Division.

Cracks began to appear in La liga, which was a composition for the second time.

Barcelona's move was particularly bad.

Only two years ago, they were the champions, ending their worst start with a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses by early October.

It's still early in the season, but even worse, the future is more opaque.

There were several reasons.

It is the first time that Gabriel Einse and Abidal, who have signed up this season, rarely adapted.

Second was the lack of Super Crack Ronaldinho, who was responsible for everything Barcelona had to offer.

He was in his prime until last year, but he was only 27 years old.

It was the downfall of the current top football player.

Rather, Henry was feeding his team as he began to struggle.

The same is true for Real Madrid.

They are now running six successive victories with their old performances.

Ever since the start of the season, he has been the number one player, but now he is the only player behind Atletico Madrid.

It was the result of 34 years old Carlos, 34 years old Van Nistelrooy, and 30 years old Raul.

Of course, he is being teased for being called `` no-in-jung '' due to the aging of the athletes, but Hobingyo, Robben, and Snader are making great strides and are building a bright future for Real.

Due to these inclinations, Perez's approval rating continued to be high.

The good day was continuing for Ho Young.

He has been selected for the official MOM four times in six of his last seven games.

I felt physically tough, but still manageable.

It was a great help to have experienced the Brazilian league, which was nothing but hell.

Moreover, the reserve team was not eligible to participate in the Copa del Rey King's Cup, so Castilla could only finish the second division schedule.

For this reason, Ho Young could concentrate on the league only.

As a result, he scored seven goals and four assists in six games, leading to the top scorer.

Castilla was more than expected by running second in the league with 4 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in seven games.

It wasn't just good.

In September, Ho Young, who was raised to the third year of middle school, was struggling with life as he had to spend more time studying.

What was important about playing soccer was important in Spain.

If you are under 16 years old, you will not be able to register if you do not go to school.

This means that the Spanish Football Association will not raise half-players who know how to play football, which is why, unlike Messi, who attended school, Ronaldo was a first-time graduate.

Ronaldo said, "When the elementary school teacher did something rude to me, I threw down the chair. And I was expelled. "There was a rumor that it was the time to focus on football.

Anyway, as a younger sister, I have to go to school for two more years to finish school life.

If you want to leave college, you can go after your retirement.

Players start their second football career by attending sports-related departments at the University of England, Germany and Spain for their major.

In mid-October there was an expedition with Elche Club de Futbol, ​​seventh in the league.

The game was a tough one due to sudden heavy rains, but Castilla scored one-on-one with an increasing teamwork.

The next week, "Gimnastic de Tarragona," was able to play as a league league game.

Moreover, it was a home game, and Castilla won a big win of 7-1 with a heated shout.

Ho Young scored two goals and two assists on the day and was praised by various Spanish media as well as the official MOM.

In addition, he received three out of three ratings from the Marca Tabloid and decorated his name in the Korean media.

The following week, although defeated by Granada 74 Club de Futbol, ​​Castilla was able to stay second in the league with five wins, three draws and two losses.

Increasingly, Ho-young's popularity soared to heaven and earth, with 20 to 30 letters flying in one day.

It was quite a lot to see that Hong Myeong-do, the nation's top sports star, received 60 shots a day during the 1994 US World Cup.

Sometimes there were negative letters, but the important thing was that I had no time to read.

The real problem was November.

Before the start of the league, he had a hard time meeting Malaga CF, Sporting de Gijon and CD Numancia, who were known as strong promotion candidates.

If you have a good player, you can do it, but it is very difficult to deal with because it has many people and organizational skills.

Squad ransom was more than 10 times that of Castile, so it was virtually rocking with eggs.

But in the midst of that, Ho Young took full advantage of the talents of the opposing team's players.

The team ended November with six wins, one draw and two losses.

And December.

It entered the winter in earnest.

Spain was known for its warmth thanks to the Mediterranean sunshine, but winter was winter.

One day, the temperature dropped to minus 4 degrees and the cold weather drove.

It didn't really affect Castilla's players.

Rather, the heat was getting hotter as the league entered the middle.

As a result, Castilla vomited up to fourth place in two league games.

The challenge was a match against Barcelona B, scheduled for December 23.

This was a game of self-esteem from the victory point, which was expected to be more intense in recent years as the prospects for competition between the two teams intensified.

In short, Woo-young vs. Bojan Krkić confrontation.

Castilla's staff had been preparing for the match a few weeks ago.

Precise and detailed video analysis.

Barcelona B's team color and Pep Guardiola's tactics.

All kinds of materials were raked and prepared.

All that was left was the players.

Valdevevas underground audio-visual room.

Manager Mandiya's explanation for the next game was in full swing.

"Barcelona B will be much easier to play than top clubs like Numancia, Malaga and Sporting de Gijon who played against us last month. Ages and physical conditions are similar to ours, and so are our careers. It means we have nothing to lean in. "

Just keep in mind that the attackers are quite strong, Mandiya said.

"The player on the screen here, you know, Boyan Krkic. Right foot striker. I know some of them have been stuck last year. Miguel, how was it? "

"I hate to admit it, but I'm a huge guy."

Bojan Krki ?.

Barcelona's biggest prospect has scored about 900 goals in the last seven years.

In the second year in particular, he had a fantastic performance with Giovanni dos Santos, making a big leap forward in the team.

And this season, they are arguing over Ho-young and third and fourth place in the league scoring record.

It was a game that could never be conceded as a good return.

You have to win against Barcelona in order to find Ronaldo's talent.

Ho-young burned the former.

When Ho-young is burning an exclusive war in the audio-visual room.

At Barcelona's Ciudad Esportiva, Barcelona's B-players were squirming and running wild.

Among them was a poisonous man.

"Is it a machine? Do you think you can move so statically to perform your role? To act as an organism. You shouldn't be bound by a given role. You're a soccer player, not a baseball player. The pitcher throws the ball, but the midfielder has to throw, receive, take away, put in, stop, roll, and play with. So do you. It's not just that you're a goalkeeper. Look at the players on the field. When you kick a goal, you have to kick it in the middle. Shouldn't you build it up? "

As annoying player, Guardiola was scolding each player who didn't like the play.

It was crazy.

"Hey, Volante! How many times do you tell them to build a bond with Stopper? If it breaks, football dies. "

This was a sight to watch every day in training.

It's called `` Pep Mode, '' which means injecting players with their own philosophy of football.

It may seem very crazy, but in fact, their movements incorporate Pep's detailed tactics, and they come together to form a perfect entity.

The problem is that the players don't understand it.

In other words, it was like an injection training.

"there!"

At that time, I did not like the scene of Guardiola.

Then he ran right over there, grabbed a player and knocked over.

"What did you do with the ball? Shouldn't you take it right away? How many times have you said you have to recapture the ball in at least seven seconds to continue the flow? "

"······ Okay."

The player who was scolded turned around and crumpled up.

'Ah that psychopath is starting again.'

Guardiola, now imprinted on the players, was more a psychotic than a manager.

What's even more funny is that the players are all following him.

"You run over there."

"Yeah."

"Hey! stop!"

"Yes?"

"You, car? I told you to run, when did you tell me to run straight? Your opponent is not a dumb. Show the movement of living creatures. "

"··· Yep."

It is rarely seen at other club training grounds.

Usually when you have a spell like this, "Why should I do that?"

The prospective prospects, like me, were compliant with Guardiola's words, as if they were in elementary school, and were moving as they were without purpose.

Its appearance was like a strictly controlled elementary school.

He will, too, be Guardiola, who will later be called a stigma, not a football metamorphosis.

A perfectionist who manages the length of the grass or even manages to play the ball.

If he did a medical test, he would be judged of extreme paranoia.

It is quite different from the look of masculine beauty.

But the result was clear.

This season, there was a twist in the lead for Barcelona's B-team, but as a result Guardiola grabbed the baton, and he was reviving his expectations and doing well.

That's why he is most trusted by President Laporta.

If the problem was not getting full trust from the players, it was a problem.

However, there was only one person who understood Guardiola's meaning.

"I believe in you."

Defensive midfielder in charge of the team's pillar.

He would later become the world's best defensive midfielder and was the only safeguard against Woo.

"If Woo-Young runs right, you run front, back, left, and right. Do you know what I mean? "

"Yes."

"So what should you do if Woo-young runs left?"

"Jump back and forth, right and left."

"Good. run."

"Yes!"

While special training is repeated.

December 23.

The long-awaited battle approached.
