What is a destructive midfielder?

Chapter 75 Arrival at Camp Nou

Northeast of Barcelona.

In front of a tombstone on the outskirts of Peralada.

A lot of staff wearing the Barcelona team logo gathered.

A string of numbers is clearly visible on the tombstone.

1968-2014.

Two blue magpies kept jumping on a dry branch.

The autumn wind is bleak.

Aunt Sofia unpacked the candle and asked doubtfully, "Aren't Enrique and Wensue here?"

Youth training director Lula shook his head: "They have to prepare for the Champions League in two days."

"Where's Guardiola?"

"He will only come here secretly!"

"Where's Mourinho?"

"That guy dare not come."

"Where are the big-name stars of the first team? Xavi can't make it back in the Middle East, why didn't Pique and Busquets come?"

"They won't be here until the middle of the month."

Lula swept away the fallen leaves around the tombstone.

light up the candle.

Aunt Sophia placed flowers.

An elder held a heavy book and sang Catalan poems.

Everyone began to mourn.

After a long time.

Everyone began to pack their things and prepare to leave.

Aunt Sophia suddenly stopped: "Villanova said that our Li is the number four in the history of La Masia?"

Lula's expression was tangled, and he said, "Don't pay attention to this, he didn't find out about the illness at that time, he just wanted to cheat some wine and drink. He also said the same thing to little Dennis' parents!"

Aunt Sophia smiled and didn't seem to care.

La Masia's No. 4 position.

Not referring to the jersey number.

It originated from the "Total Attack and Total Defense" system proposed by Michels in the late 60s.

In 1974, the World Cup final.

The match between Cruyff and Beckenbauer.

Promoted the transformation of modern football.

Total attack and total defense and free agent tactics have spawned dozens of variant styles of play, which have gradually become the tears of the times.

In 1987, Michels led the Dutch team to win the European Cup with an unsolvable record.

The first perfect "No. 4" appeared in front of the world, Frank Rijkaard.

He was Waller's lifelong enemy as a player.

In 1988, Cruyff entered Barcelona. He promoted a teenager from the La Masia youth training camp and transformed the first "4th position" in La Masia, Guardiola.

In 1997, Van Gaal coached Barcelona, ​​​​and he gave the "4th position" greater freedom.

在攻势足球的基础上，老范大手一挥，摒弃了克鲁伊夫改造多年的4-4-2双链阵型，开创了4-3-3时代。

The defensive strength of positional warfare was sacrificed, and the frontcourt oppression was enhanced.

Enrique was kicked to the full-back by him.

Mourinho was promoted from translator to first assistant by him.

In the youth training camp, he dug out La Masia's second "position 4", Harvey.

However, this "No. 4 position" is a little different from his predecessors.
And then the story later.

Familiar.

In 2001, the echelon coach - Vilanova, found a perfect candidate who was very close to the "4th position", Cesc Fabregas.

Two years later, Wenger welcomed the La Masia genius who liked the No. 4 jersey to Wembley.

Since then, the bond between Arsenal and "4" has never been separated.

In 2003, Rijkaard, the first generation No. 4, coached Barcelona. He found that "No. 4" Harvey was too soft, not as hard as he was back then!

No, you can't let Harvey play so tired!free him!

Take it apart!
Divide the functions of "position 4" into three!
Deco + Iniesta + Xavi!

Barcelona's first midfield iron triangle was born!

In 2007, Rijkaard discovered Yaya Toure and it was like a treasure!
This big black guy is tough enough!

Barcelona's second midfield iron triangle was born!

In 2008, Guardiola defeated Mourinho and became the head coach of Barcelona's first team.

Yaya Toure is refrigerated.

Busquets up.

In 2009, the era of Barcelona's peak dream three opened a chapter!
"Habaib" overwhelmed Liverpool's three top midfielders, known as the "first midfield combination".

Gamper Training Base.

The Barcelona stars are having a group match on the training ground.

Assistant coach Wensue hesitated for a moment, and complained: "Barcelona is becoming more and more like Atletico Madrid."

He is a meritorious goalkeeper in the history of the Barcelona team, and he doesn't care about the head coach's face in private.

Enrique couldn't help laughing and said: "Could it be that without Harvey, I have to think of Messi as Harvey? Sacrificing part of the ball possession transition in the midfield and giving the strikers more attacking space, this is the most suitable Barcelona tactics!"

Unsue shook his head: "Leverkusen's midfield hardness"

Enrique interrupted: "Then we will use the set left by Vilanova to deal with them! Don't think too much, Leverkusen can't get out of the Nou Camp!"

"Pretty!"

"Did you see it? How perfect Rakitic and Barcelona are! His protection on the right is too strong!"

"La Masia's No. 4 position? I'm also dreaming. Barcelona will produce a talented player who fits the template out of thin air, but this is very unrealistic!"

The training match is over.

Mascherano threw Messi a dry towel and said, "Lee Kang from Leverkusen, he is very strong in physical confrontation! The explosive speed is very fast!"

Pique nodded seriously: "His only shortcoming is ball control and sense of the ball. I'm talking about the rhythm of touch, the ability to combine people with the ball, and his ball-holding advancement. It does not pose any threat to Barcelona's midfield!"

Iniesta frowned: "I have watched Leverkusen's recent game videos, the Bundesliga youth training, it is really good! I didn't expect Li Kang's progress to be so surprising."

Suarez murmured: "I saw it too, his shoulder"

Messi wiped his sweat and didn't speak.

goal.

Barcelona's two goalkeepers, Ter Stegen and Bravo, are discussing something.

Leverkusen training base.

The old man Top had a heated discussion with the members of the coaching staff.

"What are you doing with the video of last season's Champions League final? Juventus won't work!"

"Yes! Watch the video of Atletico Madrid! That guy Simeone has a way of beating Barcelona!"

"Boss! Imitate Atletico Madrid's big defense in depth?"

"Yes! Block Rakitic's touch on the right rib! Drive Iniesta to the side with narrow vision!"

"Boss! But Barcelona has Messi."

"Use dense cross defenses to limit Barcelona's short-range short pass response points in the frontcourt!"

"Squeeze their space!"

"Boss! But Barcelona has Messi."

Dino repeated weakly.

Old man Top is going crazy.

Messi
Can Leverkusen's defense limit Messi?

If Barcelona did not have Messi, it would not be so difficult at all.

In 2015, the dominance of the peerless twins continued to be terrifying.

Cristiano Ronaldo suffered a serious injury two years ago, and there is no Phnom Penh Ronaldo in European football.

But not long after, another type of super shooter was born again!
Two days later.

The Champions League group stage is coming!
Li Kang and Leverkusen teammates got on the plane and headed for Barcelona.

The atmosphere was a little dignified.

The opponent is not only the defending champion, but also the maker of the Leverkusen tragedy.

If there is another massacre at Camp Nou.

The consequences are unimaginable.

Kramer's expression was relaxed: "Why don't you talk, Barcelona is not difficult to deal with! Last year's World Cup final, I played against Messi!"

Havertz retorted: "But you've been blown away by Messi all the time! The German national team has Neuer and Lahm."

Leno's face darkened immediately.

Jonathan Ta and Papadopoulos.Embarrassed.

Everyone laughed.

The haze covering the heart is swept away.

Li Kang was wearing headphones and holding a tablet computer, watching the video of Barcelona's recent game.

The perimeter of the Camp Nou stadium.

A sea of ​​red and blue.

Media reporters from all over Europe walked in the streets and alleys.

"Li Kang's performance in the Bundesliga is great, Camp Nou welcomes him home! The winter transfer window is not far away!"

“7比1！7比！7比1！”

"Rakitic's style of play consumes a lot of energy. He is often replaced around 70 minutes. Li Kang is very suitable to be his substitute!"

"Li Kang's appearance is more dazzling than his strength, but it is a pity that he has an affair with a thin Asian girl"

A group of female Barcelona fans said seriously.

They have hot bodies, and their gestures are full of youthful vitality.

Dragon country live broadcast room.
-
[The reporter in front of him is sensible, he is very good at selecting interview targets, the director should add chicken legs to him! 】
-
[I don't even want to understand, what can Leverkusen use to win Barcelona? 】
-
[No.2 still has a great hope of qualifying. I hope there is a Chinese player who can go further in this year's Champions League. 】
-
[Enrique's Barcelona team, although the control of the midfield is very poor, but the offensive firepower of the striker is very fierce!Juventus went all the way to the Champions League final last season, haven't they conceded a goal?When I met Barcelona, ​​I lost three! 】

The streets and alleys around Camp Nou.

It was as if the sky had also turned red and blue.

Barcelona's team anthem wafts in the air.

The media reporters searched for a long time and finally found a group of Leverkusen fans.

"Tragedy? It won't happen again!"

"Don't ask questions about the lack of people! Most of the Leverkusen fans gathered at the airport reception! Meet our heroes!"

"Lee Kang Dongchuang returns to Barcelona?"

"What kind of bastard questions are these?"

Accompanied by the fury of Leverkusen fans.

The media reporters began to flee in embarrassment!

Ann Pratt Airport.

Leverkusen players walk out of the pick-up gate.

Outside the cordon.

Fans held up slogan banners.

Camera lights flicker.

The reporters scrambled to hand the microphone to old man Top.

The microphones are printed with the logos of different Bundesliga media.

One after another asked: "Mr. Top! Will you break the Nou Camp?"

The old man with the afro didn't answer, but waved his arms!
Leverkusen fans instantly boiled!
In a trance.

The Bundesliga reporters subconsciously handed the microphone to No. 10 Leverkusen.

Li Kang smiled.

Follow the queue to go far.

Night fell quietly.

The Leverkusen club bus runs in the old town.

Li Kang looked at the scenery outside the window.

There is a piece of green orange flavored bubble gum in his mouth.

There were bursts of notification sounds from the phone.

He pressed the off button and put the phone into his backpack.

　Don't scold, it will be released the day after tomorrow, and it will be updated every day after it is released.
