Super Marshal

"What's going on with these guys?"

Gao Han looked at the players on the court, completing the training program meticulously, a little confused.

It's not that he doesn't like to see this scene, but that he finds it unusual.

I still remember that during the pre-season training last season, this group of guys were all complaining and pretending to die every minute, but now they all became dull gourds, they didn’t say a word, but the training was carried out well Very strict.

The most important thing is, he didn't even complain, it's not right!

Lorenzo Buenaventura is fully in charge of physical training, he is naturally aware of the relationship between Gao Han and the players, and he also finds it strange, because Atletico Madrid players are well trained, which is normal, but it is routine to complain a few words... …

This is so abnormal!

"Could it be that our training volume is too low?" the fitness coach speculated sinisterly.

Gao Han and the others suddenly trembled, and the way they looked at Buenaventura changed.

This guy is simply a BT!

Is this training volume too low?

You know, the same set of training made the same group of players almost cry last season, wailing all over the field almost every day, and the training intensity can be imagined.

Leaving aside, just two days ago, when this group of guys heard about the team's training plan, they were all crying. It was obvious that they had lingering fears. How could it be that the training intensity was too low?

For this set of pre-season optimization training, Gao Han knows it well.

The reason why Atletico Madrid was able to perform so well last season is due to this set of training methods.

It is precisely because of the sweetness that Gao Han will continue to use this season, and even bought two more supporting training methods to further strengthen the team's pre-season preparations.

Therefore, in terms of training intensity, it is only higher than last season.

Of course, pre-season preparations are meant to put hardship first and enjoyment later, and if you suffer a little more now, you will benefit a lot in the middle of the season.

It's just the atmosphere in the team...

"Don't you notice?" Emery suddenly asked strangely from the side.

Gao Han and his assistants all looked at the boy in unison.

Emery is still not used to being looked at by them like this. After smiling, he pointed to the training ground.

"You see, Diego Simeone, Marcos Senna, Seydoux Keita, Baptista, even Deco, Gabi, Guardiola and Xabi Alonso, are obviously playing with each other. Rivalry."

After looking at it for a while, everyone realized that it was indeed the case.

"Also, if you look at Kiko again, he is also very hardworking."

Since Kiko was seriously injured, his physical fitness has gradually declined, and injuries have been frequent.

But since Gao Han tailored intensive training for him last season, he not only bid farewell to his injuries, but also gradually recovered his former peak state, saving his career that was on the verge of retirement.

This season, he has even changed his lack of training in the past and devoted himself wholeheartedly, showing faint signs of fighting against the two young players in the team, Torres and Villa.

Not only the strikers and midfielders, but also the defense.

After a season of baptism and tempering in La Liga and the UEFA Cup, the double central defender combination of Carvalho and Marchena has become more and more mature and stable, and the two have gradually become one of the best central defender combinations in La Liga.

But they all have a common shortcoming, physical fitness is not dominant.

This makes the team's No. 3 central defender Pablo Ibanez, although slightly inferior to these two players in terms of overall strength, he can rely on his strong physical fitness to compete with them.

Moreover, since the former Albacete central defender was dug into Atletico Madrid by Gao Han, his strength has been continuously improved, and his progress has been very obvious. It is not surprising that he threatens the position of the main central defender in time.

In addition, the competition between Jankulovski and Antonio Lopez at left back is also very fierce.

Although Dario Srna at the right back has a solid main position, his defense is a weakness, and Aguilera and Roberto are not unknown, and they can also challenge his position.

With such fierce competition, every player in Atlético Madrid is naturally fully committed to training frantically for a main position.

"The team performed so well last season. Everyone, including the players themselves, is probably full of expectations for the new season. Everyone hopes to become the main force of the team. Therefore, the competition in the new season will be very fierce."

Speaking of this, Emery looked at Gao Han sympathetically.

Atletico Madrid's lineup combines the old, the middle and the young quite well. Among the veterans are Aguilera, Kiko, Diego Simeone, Guardiola and other stars who are still in pretty good condition.

During his playing years, there were also players such as Deco, Baptista, Marcos Senna, Carvalho, Marchena, Harvey Alonso, Jankulovski and others.

More importantly, with the help of Gao Han, young players such as Torres, Kaka, Villa, Dario Srna, and even Cristiano Ronaldo have made considerable progress and their development momentum is quite terrifying.

In this way, the entire Atletico Madrid team has formed a very strong competitive atmosphere.

As the head coach of the team, Gao Han needs to maintain this atmosphere well.

As for the question of who to choose and who not to choose, I'm afraid it will be a headache.

"Oh, by the way, the European Super Cup and Spanish Super Cup schedules are also out." Cantarero said beside him.

"The two rounds of the Spanish Super Cup are scheduled to be held on August 18 and August 25. We will host first and then away."

Gao Han nodded slightly.

After last season, he is obviously more confident in himself and the team.

"The UEFA Super Cup is scheduled to be held on August 30."

When Cantarero said this, he suddenly laughed gloatingly, "This time, Real Madrid is out of luck."

"Why?" Gao Han asked strangely.

"Last season, Real Madrid collapsed at the last moment and was reversed by Valencia and Deportivo. They only got fourth in the league. Although they kept their qualifications for the Champions League, they had to participate in the qualifiers."

Gao Han understands that this is also the rule of the Champions League.

There are four places in La Liga. The top three directly enter the first stage of the group stage, and the fourth place will participate in the final round of qualifiers.

"According to the schedule, the third round of qualifiers is scheduled to be held on August 14th and August 28th."

Gao Han frowned when he heard this, and then laughed out loud, "Doesn't that mean that Real Madrid will play five consecutive games within two weeks in August?"

Everyone around is also beaming with joy.

This is too cruel, right?

The season has just started, let them play double matches for a week in a row?

However, after all, Real Madrid did it themselves.

With such a good situation last season, even if they can't win the championship, there is no problem in keeping the top three in the league.

But Bosque's team collapsed again and again in the last few rounds, and the ranking also plummeted, falling to fourth in the league, and forced to participate in the qualifiers. What can be done about this?

Of course, after the media analysis, this also has something to do with Atletico Madrid.

Because according to the schedule, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are front and back, that is to say, after the same team finishes playing Atletico Madrid in this round, they will play Real Madrid in the next round.

As a result, the Sheets won consecutive battles, which led to Real Madrid wanting to compete with their rivals in the same city. The more they wanted to win, the more they couldn't win. This added psychological pressure in vain, and finally almost collapsed.

"Then, let's talk about it in advance. It's really not that I took advantage of the fire to fish in troubled waters. Don't blame me for being invincible!"

After Gao Han figured it out, he was in a good mood, "It's really just how the schedule is arranged, and I don't want to!"

All the assistants around laughed loudly, almost swearing the word despicable.

This is simply trying to get cheap and be nice!

With such a guy, Real Madrid is really...

…………

…………

Entering mid-July, all La Liga teams have also started training one after another.

The European transfer market is also in full swing.

Barcelona finally talked about Riquelme, and the transfer fee was 15 million euros.

The core player of the Boca Juniors team is known as Maradona's successor, and Barcelona fans have high hopes for him, hoping that he can become Barcelona's Zidane and provoke the team's midfielder.

In addition to Riquelme, Barcelona also rented Mendieta from Lazio. The two parties agreed that after one year, Barcelona had the priority to sign Mendieta, which shocked the entire Spanish football world.

Although Rivaldo insists on a transfer and is currently hooking up with many teams including AC Milan and Lazio, Barcelona's lineup for the new season is still luxurious.

Kluivert, Luis Enrique, Mendieta, Saviola, Riquelme and Overmars, Barcelona's lineup in the new season is amazing, and the starlight is so bright that it is also in European football. Second only to Real Madrid.

Because of this, the entire European football world is looking forward to the performance of Van Gaal's team in the new season.

Compared with Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid's signing progress is not particularly ideal.

After Florentino took a trip to Italy in person, it was revealed that Inter Milan had given the green light to Ronaldo's transfer, but the two sides had quite a big difference in terms of the transfer fee.

Moreover, in the past two years, although Real Madrid sold the Sports City in exchange for a large amount of income, the team's expenditure has been quite astonishing due to the continuous introduction of Figo and Zidane.

According to Spanish media reports, in order to be able to introduce Ronaldo, Florentino frequently met with the bank to raise funds.

In addition to the superstar Ronaldo, Real Madrid recalled Cambiasso from River Plate, whose lease expired, and promoted Portillo and other young players from the second team.

According to the pro-Real Madrid Aspen report, Florentino officially launched the Zidane and Pavin policy, and will use new players on a large scale in Real Madrid's long-standing midfield.

Also because of this, Real Madrid did not keep last season's main central defender Karanka, let him switch to Athletic Bilbao, and in the transfer of players such as Lucio, Nesta and Edmilson In terms of operation, Real Madrid does not appear to be active.

As for Valencia, which Gao Han attaches great importance to, there has been no movement so far this season.

It is reported that in view of the team's extremely bad offense last season, Benitez proposed to introduce a midfielder and striker, but the board of directors has not acted so far, which also made Benitez complain dissatisfied in the media, It means that if the team does not strengthen its strength, don't blame him for poor command after losing.

Deportivo, who also entered the Champions League, did nothing. Irueta has repeatedly stated that he is very satisfied with the team's lineup, and keeping Tristan and Makaay is the biggest signing.

Amid all the turmoil, the pace of La Liga is getting closer.
