Chapter 243 Undercurrent

The final structure of this game was 1:0, and Valencia, who played away, won the victory with Ronaldinho's goal.

In fact, after Ronaldinho's goal, Valencia's advantage is not obvious.

In the last five minutes of the game, Barcelona even besieged Valencia's goal.

The one-goal lead was too small to give Barcelona hope.

Fortunately, at the last moment, Valencia kept the victory of the game.

After the game, the media continued to cheer and applaud Ronaldinho.

"Ronaldinho has become a phenomenal player! This is only his second month in La Liga, and his performance is so good!"

"Eindhoven lost to Ronaldinho alone, and Rijkaard's Barcelona did the same. Valencia did a good job in the new season. Now it seems that they spent three months. Seventeen million euros is not expensive at all!"

"Another successful masterpiece of Chang Sheng in the transfer market! Chinese people always have a mysterious magic power in the transfer market, just like their acupuncture. Although I don't understand what's going on, it gives people the feeling Great!"

After the game, the praise of Ronaldinho in the media was overwhelming.

Of course, as the head coach who introduced Ronaldinho, Chang Sheng was naturally praised for his vision.

But Chang Sheng was not happy at all.

Because the better Ronaldinho performed, the more worried he was.

Now Ronaldinho himself is showing a hint of complacency.

He has five goals and three assists in all competitions. Tied with Villa for top scorer in the team.

He seems to think that La Liga is nothing more than that, and he can help Valencia succeed by playing like this.

After the game against Barcelona, ​​there is the Copa del Rey game, but nothing about Valencia. Valencia's Copa del Rey match will have to wait until October 27th.

After the Copa del Rey is the national team game. As the European Cup in 2004 approached, the national team's competitions became more and more frequent.

The national teams of various countries in Europe have been fighting fiercely in order to compete for the final qualifying places.

From the perspective of a club head coach, Chang Sheng really hates this kind of national team competition. Because this will increase the possibility of injury to your own players...

Sure enough, in this national team match, Baraja was slightly injured and needed a two-week truce.

Cambiasso also arrived fatigued after the Argentine national team game. Chang Sheng had no choice but to let Tulalang stand on top.

This is the first time that Toulalan has started in the league.

On October 19th, Valencia played against the Spaniard at home.

The result was not a very strong opponent, but Valencia drew 0:0 with Spain.

Taking into account the fact that a large number of players participated in the national team competition, the constant victory of this game has arranged a large rotation. Almost all the main starting lineups have been replaced.

As a result, Valencia failed to win the Spaniard at home.

Chang Sheng now feels more and more deeply the impact of the national team competition on him.

In the previous two seasons, there were not many international players in his team, so every time the national team played, it had little impact on him to be honest.

So he didn't feel how terrible the FA virus was.

Now, he knows...

The FA virus is really scary!

On the day of the national team match, the Patna Sports City is empty, and I can only bring a few substitute players to train with the B team.

Twelve people participated in the national team competition, and there were also two long-term patients, Vicente and Aurelio. The first team of twenty-three people suddenly lost fourteen people, leaving only nine people, and they couldn't even connect the basic tactics.

Then every national team game, Chang Sheng will pay close attention to it. Because he needs to know the status of the players, and he is also afraid that they may get injured.

Just like that, someone was still hurt.

Chang Sheng was really speechless.

He found it strange that in the first two seasons, not so many players were injured at the beginning of the season.

Valencia's team doctor told him it was caused by the United States before the start of the season.

"We went through medicals and found that most of the players were tired, their physical condition was not at their best..."

Fitness coach Dominique also gave a similar explanation. "Although I adjusted the physical training plan, the problem is that the training time in the United States is too fragmented. Today we are in New York, the day after tomorrow we are in Chicago, and then we are in Los Angeles two days later... Most of the time is not on the plane. It is on the bus. Physical training can only be practiced on the lawn of the hotel as soon as possible... There is no way to practice well. No matter how good the plan is, it is useless to not be able to train effectively."

So in the final analysis, it turned out that it was caused by the training in the United States.

Chang Sheng was helpless.

Next season, he decided to persuade the top management to give up the idea of ​​commercial competition no matter what.

Go out every year, and sooner or later this team falls apart.

In fact, there will be a living example this season.

In the time and space that Chang Sheng is familiar with, Real Madrid has gathered superstars this season and is ambitious, intending to defend the league title.

Florentino tried his best to prove to those around the world who questioned his giant strategy that his superstar policy can not only bring great commercial success to the club, but also win championships at the competitive level.

In the 30th round of the league, Real Madrid still leads Benitez's Valencia by one point.

But at this time, Real Madrid's physical strength has been exhausted, coupled with the tremendous pressure created by Valencia who is gnawing on them, which eventually led to the collapse of the Galacticos.

In the thirty-second round, they lost to Osasuna 0:3 at home and were overtaken by Valencia.

In the thirty-third round, although they won the Madrid derby, Valencia was tied by Real Sociedad.

But in the thirty-fourth round, Real Madrid was defeated by Barcelona with Ronaldinho 2:1 at home, which completely collapsed them. Since the start of this game, Real Madrid has been in a shambles and its morale has been in a slump. Thirty-five rounds lost to Deportivo 0:2 away; thirty-sixth rounds lost to Mallorca 2:3 at home; thirty-seventh rounds lost 1:2 to Murcia; thirty-eighth rounds lost 1 at home :4 defeat to Real Sociedad.

In the 101-year history of the establishment of the Real Madrid Club, the first five-game losing streak was born.

They lost the league title by five points, Queiroz was sacked and Real Madrid sank.

Later, when people summed up the successes and failures of the Galaxy Battleship, they all believed that the crazy trip to Asia in 2003 was the root cause of Real Madrid's final collapse at the end of the season. Because Real Madrid, who are busy making money from catwalk shows, are not focused on training at all, so they do not have a good reserve of physical fitness, and the training camp for pre-season preparations has not played its due role at all.

Although Queiroz was known for being good at physical training when he was at Manchester United, in the end Real Madrid took the physical collapse as a signal and completely went to ruin. Needless to say, this is actually quite ironic.

Chang Sheng is well aware of this history, so he is also worried that the summer training in the United States will lead to serious consequences. Now it seems that the injury of multiple players is already one of the effects...

Fortunately, he has a physical training expert Dominique, otherwise his team will be even worse.

At any rate, Real Madrid trained for a week at the Hongta base in Yunnan, China. This is a continuous training cycle.

And what about Valencia? Changing a place for two days, changing a place for three days... It is impossible to conduct systematic and coherent training.

On October 21st, the Champions League group match day, Valencia beat Monaco 1-0 at home.

This is the first match between Chang Sheng and the sudden emergence of Monaco.

In the Champions League, Valencia has two wins and one draw, with seven points, ranking first in the group. Monaco is second in the group with six points.

It seems that Valencia is fulfilling what their coach said in the Champions League: "For us, any signing is a good signing."

Valencia has triumphed in the Champions League and is undefeated, but not so lucky in the league.

In the eighth round of the league, Valencia lost 1:2 away to Deportivo Deportivo.

Suffered the first defeat of the season.

The magic of Ronaldinho is over in this game. He played mediocre in the game and did not help the team win the game. He did not score or assist personally.

Valencia's only goal had nothing to do with him.

In the Copa del Rey in the middle of the week, Ronaldinho did not play, and every player in Valencia can play the way they are most familiar with. They easily beat Cassie 3-0 in the away game.

Back in the league, Ronaldinho started again. As a result, Valencia drew with Celta Vigo 2:2 at home.

Didn't win again.

Since the away 1-0 victory over Barcelona in the league, Valencia has not been able to win three consecutive rounds, and their league ranking has fallen from the first place to the fourth place.

And in the game against Celta, Albelda also received a red card and will be suspended for two games.

Valencia's start looked okay, but in reality it was undercurrent.

Chang Sheng, at the helm of Valencia, knows very well that the future of this team is not as optimistic as some people think. If you don't pay attention, this big ship may hit a reef, or be caught in a vortex, unable to escape...

And what about Ronaldinho himself? Also fell into a downturn in three consecutive rounds of no goals or assists.

The media was full of praises for him before, but now I can't see any of them.

The merciless media avoided talking about Ronaldinho's sluggish performance, while the impolite media directly accused Ronaldinho of his poor performance and being too complacent, which was the culprit for Valencia's failure to win culprit.

Ronaldinho himself also felt pain and confusion-he felt that he was still playing the same way as before, with the same performance, why could he help the team win before, but now he can't?

Just when he couldn't figure it out, he received a notice from the head coach to have an interview with him. (to be continued)
