Dominate the Greenery

Chapter 22: Castle in the Sky
Although it was reversed by Real Madrid, Rome, Italy, has received good news. The team officially signed a head coach contract with Del Neri.

As for whether the team leader Totti can handle the relationship with the new coach well, these have nothing to do with the current Real Madrid.

The first five rounds of the league had 4 wins and 1 loss. Although there were ups and downs in the middle, it seems to be on the right track now.

From the point of view of the standings, Real Madrid is 1 point behind Barcelona. This is why Laporta is still strong on the Xierui issue, but he still clings to his opponent in a difficult situation. What happened here made many people feel Real Madrid's toughness, early coaching changes, conflicts with fans, etc. did not break them down. Although every game looked weak, the final result was not satisfactory, and Raul scored twice in the last game. Fans believe that Real Madrid has come out of the downturn.

"Thank you, Raul!" This was the heartfelt shout from the entire Bernabeu to the captain after the match with Rome.From the chairman to the players, from the head coach to the fans, no one wants to hide their appreciation, gratitude and respect for Raul's hard work.

Although Florentino's external speeches were full of various speculations, Mr. Chairman tried his best to maintain a quiet elegance and demeanor no matter the result of the game, but after the game, he couldn't help standing up and watching The whole team left the field and conveyed their appreciation and thanks to Raul through the chairman's box.Even if this is just for the fans to watch, the fans are very satisfied. No matter how chaotic and sluggish the team is in the early stage, their expectations for Raul are always greater than everything.

Although from the perspective of many professionals, Raul is more of an icing on the cake in the game, but for Real Madrid fans, what they need is a representative figure, and Raul is the current banner.

"Because of dignity and a sense of honor, the team can respond properly in a difficult situation. For me personally, the happiest thing is to watch the fans leave the Bernabeu contentedly." Raul said in an interview after the game, He is well aware of the source of his status.He is willing to make his own sacrifices for this team, and also regards the dignity and sense of honor of the team as a magic weapon to challenge difficulties and ego.

His physical fitness and skills are not the best in the current Real Madrid team, but his unreserved attitude for Real Madrid can make up for all the shortcomings, and it is precisely because of this sense of dignity and honor that Raul looks like Real Madrid The outsiders are different, making him the most recognized player at the Bernabeu.

Just like Carlos, even if he has contributed so much to this team, even after the big names come, his status will not decrease. He often exists only as a giant in the locker room during class.

No matter the time of day, fans always look to the team for effort, aggressiveness and dedication.

Some time ago, the team did not have such spirit at all. The captain of Real Madrid may be the person who knows the expectations of the fans best.In the more than ten years he has played for Real Madrid, he has always maintained this kind of dedication and dedication, although for one reason or another, in some games, Raul's running seems to be clueless and unresponsive. Any sense, but those runs drained his energy and hurt his creativity.

The team needs to let him gradually transform into a blue-collar worker, but everyone should admit that Raul has dedicated everything he can to Real Madrid. You can't ask him to be the person with the most beautiful statistics in that position. This is unrealistic and does not conform to the actual situation of Real Madrid.

But sacrificing personal honor to achieve the cornerstone role of the team is indeed difficult for other people in Real Madrid to do. Maybe Guti can, but he does not have the opportunity like Raul.

Of course, after scoring twice in the game against Roma, Raul has scored 47 goals in the Champions League series, surpassing Eusebio to become the second scorer in the history of the competition, only Two goals less than Stefano, who scored the most goals, as a symbol of active players in the Champions League, he has achieved a legend that belongs only to him.

The prince's duel ended with Raul's victory, and the two captains also carried the banner of the team forward.

Raul is not clear about Totti's situation, but he understands his own position and moves forward despite difficulties.

Compared with Raul's status in the hearts of Real Madrid fans, Xie Rui is much lower. Even though he has performed extremely well in the near future, he is first restricted by his background, and he is also different from Raul's Atletico Madrid trace.

Both fans and players have recognized Raul's status, at least in the team, he is the absolute leader.

But what about Xie Rui?He is just a rookie who has played four official games, and he is not yet qualified to stand in front of the team.

Although the major media involved in Real Madrid always take Xie Rui out to talk about things when they report on the matter between Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​whether it is Florentino or Laporta, Xie Rui is just an irrelevant player in their minds. An important chess piece, maybe it will become pivotal in the future, but for now.With Laporta is just scratching the surface.

On the contrary, because of Real Madrid's policy of using big names, Laporta has many reasons to criticize. "The star policy is very helpful to the team's image promotion, but I don't think they can last for too long. You can see the changes in our team this season, which Real Madrid can't do. We except Valdez Playing all the games with Xavi, everyone else is taking a reasonable rotation break, no one is made of iron, Raul can't, Zidane can't, Ronaldo can't. Do you think Shrek can? I admit him He is a young man with potential and strength, but he is not in our plan, we wish him a good performance."

Laporta's words are not an evasion, but they can be regarded as reluctantly picking himself out. Although Xie Rui's performance made him feel a little bit regretful, such regrets are only considered from the transfer fee. Xie Rui paid real value for Barcelona.

But Laporta firmly believes that this yellow-skinned little guy can at most become an excellent role player. Of course, if he was willing to give him a more reluctant contract at that time, now the team will implement the "Barcelona China Plan". There is a certain amount of help, but it is only second. After all, Xie Rui does not have a place in the current Barcelona lineup.

"Shrek still has a long way to go, he may play a key role in one or two games, but in terms of Real Madrid's current situation, they can't pin their hopes on such a young man. Raul couldn't do it back then. , now it will be more difficult for him because there are too many stars in front of him."

"I still believe that balance is the main source of team development. Relying on the strategy of individual stars can only prove failure in the end. Real Madrid is now a castle in the air, it is illusory, and they are doomed to fail this season!"
