"Ronnie, can I trust you?"
After the recovery training in the morning, everyone began to rest. Gao Shen asked Lucas to call Ronaldo to the head coach's office. The Brazilian sat down as soon as he entered the door, and Gao Shen asked right away.
Ronaldo was surprised, he suddenly looked up at Gao Shen, and found that the head coach was staring at him, and immediately realized the seriousness of the problem. This is definitely not a joke, but serious.
"You said." Ronaldo did not answer on the spot.
His relationship with Gao Shen has not been good enough to trust him without asking why.
Even, to a certain extent, he was afraid that he would be betrayed by Gao Shen accidentally.
Who doesn't know that this young man is a cunning fox?
"In this game against AC Milan, I need the center forward to suppress the opponent's two central defenders, and cooperate with the left and right flanks to suppress AC Milan's back line, just like the tactics adopted by Lyon and Inter Milan, but we will Do it more aggressively than they do, you know what I mean?"
Ronaldo pondered for a moment and nodded to show his understanding.
Radical, the meaning behind it is actually that Real Madrid players need to invest more troops, run more and more diligently, and press harder and harder, and behind all this is the hard work and consumption of the players.
Ronaldo never doubted his state of mind, he wanted to win, he wanted to win, but he wasn't very confident in his body.
"How far?" Ronaldo asked.
"Go all out, if it goes well, the first half, or even shorter."
Ronaldo didn't ask what if it didn't go well, because he knew that if it didn't go well, it would be pointless to ask.
"I can't compete for the top like Negredo. Whether it's Nesta, Stam, Maldini or Kaladze, I can't grab them." Ronaldo said again.
Gao Shen nodded, "Understand, you don't need to do these, you just need to limit their balls."
"And... score a goal?"
"right."
This is Gao Shen's intention to use Ronaldo, otherwise, wouldn't it be better for him to go directly to Negredo?
To put it simply, Gao Shen used Ronaldo in order to improve the scoring efficiency as much as possible, but it would certainly weaken the pressing force in the frontcourt. Ronaldo cannot provide the kind of pressure that Negredo has as a center forward.
"What did Lorenzo say?" Ronaldo asked again.
Real Madrid players still trust Buenaventura.
"He feels that there is nothing wrong with his body, the key is to look at the players themselves."
That is the so-called willingness to fight.
This is actually very important.
Some people even say that how to stroke smartly on the court is the sign of a good player.
The so-called smart is actually not affecting the overall performance of the team, but also being able to be lazy and take a breath.
But now, what Gao Shen wanted was to do his best, and for forty-five minutes.
The reason why Gao Shen asked was because it couldn't be forced.
If Ronaldo promises him now, but can't do it when he goes to the court, then Gao Shen can only be pitted, so usually at such times, the head coach must give priority to Negredo.
What's more, Ronaldo also has to consider a risk. The more he consumes, the closer his physical fitness is to the limit, the easier it is for players to get injured, and the World Cup is imminent. As long as he is injured, he is likely to miss the World Cup.
But Gao Shen still wants to ask, because Ronaldo said that he wants a Champions League!
Now, let's see how strong Ronaldo's desire is.

"It's one to zero again."
When Gao Shen, who was far away in Madrid, was talking to Ronaldo, Ancelotti of Milan also got a detailed report on Real Madrid's game against Getafe. They also specially arranged scouts to follow Real Madrid's games on the spot and spy on the military situation.
"I think now, the young coach of Real Madrid is really interesting."
Assistant coach Mauro Tassotti nodded, "At the age of 25, it is not easy to bring Real Madrid to what it is now."
After speaking, the assistant coaches of AC Milan showed a small smile.
Everyone knows what Real Madrid looked like before Gao Shen took over, but now, La Liga has chased ten points, keeping pace with Barcelona, reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League and encountering AC Milan.
Not to mention anything else, just this transcript is eye-catching enough.
"But unfortunately, he still can't conquer the picky Real Madrid." After Ancelotti finished speaking, he laughed.
In the intelligence, Real Madrid President Martin did not give a clear commitment to renew the contract, and everyone knows that this basically means that Gao Shen has missed out with Real Madrid this summer.
Of course, if he really does shine this season, such as a La Liga and Champions League double, that's another story.
From the current point of view, no one can deny that Real Madrid has such a possibility, but it is still the least optimistic among the semi-finals.
Similar to Villarreal.
"Actually, it's quite normal. Judging from the current situation of Real Madrid, there will definitely be a major restructuring this summer. Who can invest tens of millions of euros in such a deal, or even go in and out of a transaction of over 100 million euros, betting on a 20 What about five-year-olds?"
Mauro Tasotti took it for granted.
"Don't say it's Real Madrid, La Liga, Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A, which team's season transfer does not involve more than 10 million euros of funds, plus the team's personnel salary cost and investment in various aspects, do you think, Does anyone really want to gamble on him?"
Ancelotti nodded.
Now there is a debate, in the end is the achievement of Real Madrid? Or has Real Madrid achieved greatness?
This is actually an unanswered question, because the two are one.
But there is a consensus in the professional football circle that fighting fires midway and running a full season are completely different concepts. It can even be said that no one will admit how good a coach who fights fires midway is excellent.
Unless he coaches a full season alone and proves himself with results.
If Gao Shen can lead Real Madrid to win the championship, the result of fighting the fire in the middle is really outstanding, and the best and most ideal result is to stay in Real Madrid, just like Bosque, and then use the results of the whole season to prove his strength.
But unfortunately, his team is Real Madrid, and in the current situation, I am afraid it is difficult to give him such a chance.
And who other teams would be willing to give him such a chance?
There are very few head coaches who have made great achievements in fighting fires in the middle, but have been in a mess for the whole season.
What's more, those are all mature coaches, and Gao Shen is only twenty-five years old.
"Actually, Capello is right, he should find a team that is willing to trust him and support him, let him let go and try, to improve his tactical concepts and ideas, and then create his own team, bring Get results and prove yourself once again.”
Ancelotti suddenly felt that Capello really appreciated the profoundness, otherwise he would not have given such pertinent advice.
"But the top leagues, even the Eredivisie and the Portuguese Super League, may not have teams willing to give him such an opportunity. It is still too young and makes people worry." Mauro Tasotti analyzed.
"So," Ancelotti nodded, "I guess, he still wants to bet on La Liga and the Champions League. He will do his best in the Bernabeu battle. I am sure that he will be like Houllier, like Mann. Like Chiney, he wants to eat us in one bite."
After speaking, Ancelotti showed a sly sneer.
After all, I am still young, and I don’t understand the reason why I can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry.
"Arrange a training session to focus on the defense of grabbing the second spot. Negredo is worth noting. If Raul and Zidane grab the second spot, they are still very threatening." Anche Lottie exhorted.
Mauro Tasotti immediately took out his notebook and recorded it.
…………
…………
The Champions League semi-final is approaching.
Real Madrid beat Getafe 1-0 and AC Milan beat Inter Milan 1-0. Both games are visible. The current state of these two teams is not bad, and it is even more exciting for the semi-finals. expect.
In contrast, AC Milan is the favorite.
Since the Champions League has been played so far, Real Madrid and Villarreal have been able to reach the semi-finals, which is an uncompromising upset.
Barcelona is the number one favorite, followed by AC Milan, so the two teams participating in the final have the highest odds of Barcelona and the Rossoneri. Real Madrid and Villarreal are both regarded as stepping stones.
Surprisingly, before the Bernabeu against AC Milan, Real Madrid was surprisingly calm, and no news was revealed.
Valdebebas simply adopted a closed training, refused the media and fans, and the Bernabeu did not make any noise, which gave the impression of cold treatment.
Is it because Real Madrid was not sure about this semi-final, so they chose to keep a low profile?
The day before the game, the two teams each announced their 18-player roster, and there were no surprises or surprises either.
Both parties seem to be very conservative, not intending to create surprises.
Gao Shen still didn't attend the pre-match press conference and let Maqueda replace him. The media also made trouble for a while, but he got used to it.
There is really nothing to say before the game. The real hot spot is after the game. Regardless of whether you win or lose, the media has articles to do.
Ancelotti made predictions about the game before leading the team to Madrid. He said that AC Milan would retreat at the Bernabeu.
"We already know what kind of tactics the opponent will use but we are very confident that the opponent will not succeed."
Ancelotti said that Real Madrid is a great team and deserves respect, but this team is no longer at its peak.
For the Bernabeu battle, Ancelotti said that he would not choose to be conservative, but will actively strive for away goals.
"We all know that away goals are important in the knockout stages of the Champions League, and we want to bring in goals from the Bernabeu."
For Gao Shen, Ancelotti said that this is the biggest surprise and accident in European football this season.
"Before this, none of us could have believed that a 25-year-old coach would be in charge of Real Madrid, let alone what he has achieved today."
"To be honest, I really like the football concept that Gao Shen has shown. He is not conservative at all, really, but still rough. He needs more time to slowly polish his team, but what he lacks most now is It's time."
Ancelotti's implication is that the battle of the Bernabeu, he will win!
