The Day I Played with Ronaldo

Chapter 338: Deployment before the game

Ricardo only thought he was joking, and also laughed and said, "Okay, wait until I defend this year's Champions League champion."

"This year's champion is us, if you join," Beckham grinned, "next year will be us again. I'm serious, Ricardo, before today's party, Mr. Florentino called me , I want to persuade you."

Only then did Ricardo get serious. He thought for a while, took a sip of his drink, and said, "I don't think Real Madrid needs me. You have too many offensive players now, and there is no place for me."

After a pause, he smiled again: "Why didn't he let Ronnie persuade me?"

Beckham shook his head: "Because Ronnie doesn't really want you to join, he thinks you need to continue to develop in a team that can guarantee the main position."

Ricardo felt warm in his heart, and said with a smile: "He has always cared about me."

"Yes," Beckham said with a smile, "the key is, what do you think? Come to Real Madrid, you can get a higher salary, more exposure, higher popularity, and higher advertising fee."

Ricardo doesn't want to say "I don't play football for money" to people he doesn't know well. For people who don't know him well, it seems hypocritical to say such words. Professional players regard playing football as a profession. Isn't playing football just to make money?

"Let me think about it," he said perfunctorily, "After tomorrow's game, can you exchange jerseys with me?"

"Of course." Beckham would not try to persuade him too much, it would be very inappropriate to make shallow remarks.

The two chatted for a while, and Ricardo walked away to find Baptista.

Baptista played at a world-class level last season, but after joining Real Madrid, his state has declined, and now he can only maintain the high-level intercontinental level.

"What are you and David talking about?" Baptista asked.

Ricardo shrugged: "He invited me to join Real Madrid."

"This is a good thing," Baptista said with a smile, "come here quickly. It's best to bring Ricky (Kaka) over here too, so that we can reunite the three heroes of Sao Paulo."

Ricardo knew he was joking. And the three heroes of Sao Paulo refer to themselves, Kaka and Fabiano. Baptista left too early.

"I am very happy at Inter Milan and do not want to move for the time being."

"Prince of Meazza, I can understand that you are so valued at Inter Milan. But Serie A is not working now, just wait and see. After a year or two, you will definitely leave on your own initiative."

"Perhaps." Ricardo was noncommittal. He really doesn't plan to stay in Serie A for too long. The limit he set for himself is to play until 2008 at the latest.

In the next period of time, he really wants to come to La Liga. In the era of Melo's twin stars, wouldn't it be too boring not to come to La Liga to compete with these two.

It's just that he doesn't want to join Real Madrid. He has no interest in being teammates with Messi or Ronaldo.

And to be honest, with his current status and worth in football, if he came to Real Madrid in 2008, it would be difficult for Ronaldo to join in 2009. Because he will definitely be the core of the team, Ronaldo can only be his deputy. With Ronaldo's pride and arrogance, it's hard to imagine that he would be willing to be someone else's second-in-command.

In that case, it would be a pity not to see Melo's hegemony staged in La Liga. If Ronaldo is really willing to join Real Madrid as his deputy, it would be too unbalanced. Barcelona, ​​which only has Messi, must be suppressed to death.

He would rather join Atletico Madrid and stage a three-nation hegemony in La Liga. However, Atletico Madrid in this period may not have so much money to sign him...

Thinking about this is too far away.

Let's just focus on beating Real Madrid tomorrow.

At the party, several beauties were winking at Licado, among them there were not none who were prettier than Stella. If Li Kaduo nodded, it should be very easy to have a Spring Festival with one of them.

But Ricardo didn't have such an idea. Unless he broke up with Shi Dela, he would not have a relationship with other women.

It's against his principles.

Since there is a game tomorrow, the party didn't stay too late.

In the morning of the next day, Inter Milan went to the Bernabeu for adaptive training. In the afternoon, they borrowed Atletico Madrid's training ground for tactical training and set-piece drills.

After dinner, the team left the hotel and took the bus to the Bernabéu again.

Very congested on the street leading to the stadium. Countless fans flooded the streets, waving small Real Madrid flags and scarves, singing songs and shouting slogans such as "Real Madrid must win".

At the Bernabeu, after the players warmed up, they returned to the locker room and listened to Mancini's final arrangements.

The tactical board has been densely drawn.

"Real Madrid's roster has been announced, and there are a few points that are different from what we guessed in advance."

"It's not Ramos at right back, it's Cicinho, Ramos plays at centre-back, partnering with Woodgate. The single midfielder is not Gravesen, but Baptista. It's good for us According to the news, their lineup today is very aggressive, but this will inevitably make their defense unstable. We will firmly play defensive counterattacks."

"We are going to make a fuss on the left today, Riccardo, it's up to you. Cicinho likes assists very much, and his defensive ability is much worse than Roberto Carlos. You have to make good use of the gap after his assists. You are in his There is a height advantage in front of you, when you pass the ball to Ricardo, you can try more high-altitude balls."

"When defending, we must be tough, don't be afraid of fouls, and use fouls to interrupt their offensive rhythm. But pay attention to the location of the foul. They have several free kick masters, and we must not give them free kicks in dangerous positions."

"I don't need to repeat how strong they are attacking, you all understand. It's very difficult for us to keep clean sheets. I don't expect you to keep clean sheets. But as long as we can score goals and get enough away games We can achieve our tactical goal by scoring a goal. Therefore, when counterattacking, we must be willing to invest our troops."

"Adriano, I hope you drop back more today, bring out their central defenders, and leave more space for Ricardo to cut inside."

"Luis (Figo), today we mainly play on the left, but it doesn't mean that the right is not important. I hope you will reduce the number of times you go to the center today, and give way to the center to give Ricardo more space. If Hit the ball to the right, I want you to play more firmly, to pass the ball faster or to move to Ricardo on the left."

Finally, he looked to today's two central defenders Materazzi and Samoel. "Your task is the heaviest. You have to face the number one person in the world. Show your best form!"
