Chapter 830: The important task of blocking Lin Yu

Originally, before the war between Real Madrid and Valencia, both sides seemed relatively restrained and did not give the media too many opportunities to hype. However, at the pre-match press conference, Valencia coach Pellegrino said:

But it makes the calm water become agitated.

He did not criticize or ridicule Lin Yu, but said a lot of good things about Lin Yu.

When a reporter mentioned Lin Yu, Pellegrino said seriously: "There is no doubt that that person is very scary. No matter which team encounters him, it will be an unspeakable nightmare.

We are no exception."

His words certainly made Lin Yu very happy, but they could easily cause dissatisfaction and unhappiness among the players in the team.

For example, former Manchester United captain Vidic, who moved to Valencia during the summer transfer period, and former Manchester United player Hernandez both expressed their unacceptable views on Pellegrino's words.

Vidic had had a head-on confrontation with Lin Yu when he was at Manchester United. He lost miserably at that time, but that could not completely wipe away his self-esteem. He could lose in the battle, but he could never accept that it had not started yet.

It’s a matter of giving up after a fight.

His transfer from Manchester United to Valencia this season was a matter of helplessness and an attempt, because he could no longer get the respect he deserved and couldn't get the results he wanted, so he came to Valencia instead.

After West Asia, he was highly regarded and also had the opportunity to play in the Champions League. For an aging player, this can be regarded as the best way to support his retirement.

As for Little Pea Hernandez, because of Moyes' coaching, it was not only difficult for him to get playing opportunities, but he also played very unpleasantly. He joined Valencia, firstly, because he wanted to play with the ball in a real sense. Secondly,

I also want to use this platform to express myself in the Champions League and can't continue to waste time at Manchester United.

He also disagreed with Pellegrino's statement. Of course he admitted that Lin Yu was very good, but before the game even started, he praised the opponent as a flower and made his own players seem worthless.

What's going on?

Of course, it is impossible for the two of them to directly confront the head coach. After all, they are newcomers who have just joined Valencia and have not performed well yet. If they want to have the right to speak and want the head coach to listen to them, they must be in the game.

Show your ability in it.

Prove yourself with practical actions!

To put it more directly, one proves himself by scoring goals, and the other proves himself with excellent defense. It is best if Lin Yu can't score a single goal he defends.

Hernandez is a forward. It is basically impossible for him to directly fight with Lin Yu. He also understands that his ability is not as strong as Lin Yu, but to score goals, he may not need Lin Yu's ability. He can also

Score goals, so proving yourself is not necessarily impossible.

Vidic's idea is even simpler. When he was in the Premier League, he was teased many times by Lin Yu. At that time, he also admitted it because he really didn't understand Lin Yu at that time and had little contact with him. But now, for

To deal with Lin Yu, he carefully watched almost every game Lin Yu played in La Liga in the past two seasons. He remembered what Lin Yu's habits were and what he was good at. He really wanted to

A big fight, completely blocking Lin Yu and not giving Lin Yu any chance to score.

Interestingly, when many Spanish media introduced the former full-face captain, they would use the word "veteran" to describe it, and said, "If Vidic were ten years younger, he might become a big trouble for Lin Yu."

, but he is old now, and it is difficult to compete with Lin Yu, who is only 25 years old. He came to Valencia to retire, and he probably has no intention of competing with Lin Yu."

The media's remarks made Vidic very angry. He was unwilling to admit that he was old. He believed that his current age was considered a golden age for the defender position. Why should he be called old? He was not convinced.

So he wanted to defeat Lin Yu. On the one hand, he wanted to prove to his head coach that his sword is immortal and that Lin Yu was not as scary as he imagined. On the other hand, he wanted to prove to himself that he was not old yet and could still do it again.

Several years.

In fact, when he left Manchester United to join Valencia, some English media said that he would leave mainstream football from now on, because Valencia is not a wealthy team like Manchester United after all, and many media said that he would not be able to survive at Manchester United.

Only then will he come to La Liga.

The older a person gets, the more afraid they are of others saying they are old, and Vidic is certainly no exception. In fact, his condition is quite good, and it is not a problem to be the main force in mainstream leagues. There are many reasons why he left Manchester United.

There is no need to go into details.

Perhaps because of this, he wanted to prove his ability by defeating Lin Yu. In fact, he did not need to defeat Lin Yu. As long as he could make Lin Yu feel troubled and depressed, he would have won. After all, on the back line, one person could not defeat Lin Yu.

Although he is powerful, he may not be able to stop the opponent's forward from scoring goals, not to mention that this forward is still Lin Yu.

After thinking about it, Vidicis still felt that his whole life's fame might be staked on Lin Yu. If he could successfully stop Lin Yu, no one would dare to say that he was old or that he was no longer good.

Even if he cannot successfully block, as long as he can cause a lot of trouble to Lin Yu and make it difficult for Lin Yu to score, then he will also be taken seriously. After all, in today's football, there are no defenders who can defend Lin Yu on their own.

Was born.

However, the risk of doing so is not small, because if it fails, he may really lose confidence in himself and become a person who is living in retirement.

But he had to do this. If he didn't do it, he would never be able to play football with peace of mind.

So he planned to find a time to talk to Pellegrino privately and let the head coach give him the important task of defending Lin Yu.



Why did Pellegrino say that even though he knew that saying that would cause dissatisfaction among some players in the team?

Is he a fool?

Is he an unqualified head coach?

No!

None!

Pellegrino is actually very smart. He has been observing for more than two seasons. He has discovered a very interesting phenomenon. Lin Yu is the kind of player who becomes crazier the more you look down on him. The more you stimulate him, the crazier he gets.

, your team may lose more miserably. On the contrary, if you praise him, praise him, and praise him, although it is impossible to truly praise him, it can definitely alleviate his hostility.

As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face. When faced with a pitiful person who treats you with respect, do you really have the heart to be cruel?

This is probably the weakness of Lin Yu's character. Pellegrino felt that he had discovered this secret. That's why he expressed such a view at the press conference before the game and tried his best to take pictures of Lin Yu's horse.

Shit, let Lin Yu's hostility towards Valencia be minimized.

As a twenty-five-year-old young man, Lin Yu has already won a lot of honors, which will inevitably lead to him becoming complacent, even if it is just a little bit, there will definitely be some, and it may also be accompanied by laziness.

If someone provokes him at this time, he may put aside his complacency and slackness and perform at a super level on the court. For example, in the last round of the game against the Spaniard, Lin Yu absolutely performed at a god-level in the first six minutes. Who is there?

In front of him, everyone had to admit that they were unlucky, but after Lin Yu scored the goal in six minutes, he became a little relaxed. Of course, this relaxation did not mean that he did not take the game seriously, but it just seemed that the violent state of the game character was over.

There will be a period of weakness, which is one of the reasons why he never scored again.

Pellegrino didn't dare to provoke Lin Yu, or even let the media hype it up, because he didn't know what the media would say, and Lin Yu suddenly went crazy again.

His choice is of course the smartest one. Even if it cannot reduce Lin Yu's combat effectiveness, don't be stupid and make the opponent enter a violent state.

On the other hand, by doing this, he can also stimulate the new players in the team, Vidic and Hernandez. Since these two players have recently joined Valencia, they are eager to make contributions, so they definitely do not want to admit defeat.

When he said this, both Vidic and Hernandez must be holding back some energy in their hearts and preparing to perform in the game.

If this effect can be achieved, Pellegrino can actually snicker.



Therefore, when Vidic and Hernandez took the initiative to come to Pellegrino, the scheming head coach was not surprised at all. It seemed that he had already reached this point.

"Coach, let me start tomorrow, I will score!" After Hernandez came to Valencia, he was a substitute in the first two rounds, mainly during the adaptation stage, so Pellegrino also

I didn't dare to let him start directly. Hernandez made such a request today, and he was obviously ready.

Deep down in his heart, Pellegrino is very willing to let Xiao Wandou start. He also feels that the young man is ready, but he feels that the heat is not yet ready, so he should tease the young man and let him start.

This guy's fighting spirit burned like fire.

"I'm afraid not. The opponent is Real Madrid. If you can't score, I'm afraid you will lose confidence in yourself." Pellegrino snickered secretly. He felt that his acting skills were really good. He said

It's like the real thing.

"No! Coach, you must let me start. If I can't score, I will take the initiative to reduce my salary!" Hernandez said firmly.

When Xiao Wandou came to Valencia, he didn’t want to continue to sit on the bench. He also wanted to be able to play the main team. Otherwise, he might have gone to Chelsea. But he understood that after going to Chelsea, he would still be a substitute, so he chose here.

.

Seeing that the heat was almost done, Pellegrino scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "Okay, since you have so much courage, I will agree to it. You can go to training with confidence and adjust your condition.

During the game, you will definitely become the starting striker."

"Thank you, coach!" After receiving the approval of the head coach, Hernandez bowed excitedly, then turned and ran out of Pellegrino's office. Once outside, he even jumped up, bent his right hand,

Shout "yes".

Seeing that Hernandez got what he wanted, Vidic was also anxious. He also looked at Pellegrino and said: "Coach, can you give me the task of guarding Lin Yu? I can definitely take a good look at him."

It can be seen that Vidic is really anxious and working hard at this time, and his eyes are very determined.

However, facing Vidic, Pellegrino also wanted to whet the opponent's appetite. He could not agree too simply. People are always unwilling to cherish things that are too easy to obtain.

"Have you successfully defended him before?" Pellegrino asked.

Vidic's old face turned red and said: "That's all in the past. I underestimated that kid too much in the past, so I suffered a few losses. But it won't happen this time. I can defend him wholeheartedly. You just need to

It's enough to send a teammate to assist me."

Although the desire to let go of Lin Yu is very strong, Vidic is not a fool. He knows that it is difficult to defend Lin Yu with his own strength, so he wants to get a helper from Pellegrino, as long as he

With two people, he has confidence.

Hearing this, Pellegrino nodded secretly. He felt that Vidic was really good. He had the confidence to win but also remained calm. This is the quality of a defender. If Vidic said
Chapter completed!
