Real Madrid ended the pre-season American tour with two wins and two losses. In the four games, they earned more than 15 million euros, but obviously Ancelotti would not consider economic factors too much, “I will give 6 points to the team’s performance in this preseason tour,” the low-key Italian coach was not particularly satisfied with the overall state of Real Madrid. The addition of new players, the running-in of new formation and the construction of a new system are not problems that can be solved in four warm-up matches.
Although Real Madrid won the World Club Cup, the European Super Cup Cup and the King’s Cup last season, the overall performance was not stable. Most of the time, they still relied on veterans such as Benzema, Modrich and cross to make efforts. The new season is coming. Can Real Madrid, whose main lineup is younger, bring more surprises to fans? I wonder how many points Ancelotti will score for Real Madrid’s performance in next May?

The new players that Real Madrid have joined so far: Bellingham, Jose Lou, Dias, Guler, Fran Garcia;
The players that Real Madrid has transferred so far: Benzema, assencio, Vallejo (on loan), Azar, Mariano.

According to the statistics of “as” newspaper, La Liga has spent 0.253 billion Euros this summer window, of which Real Madrid accounts for 0.1285 billion, exceeding the total of the remaining 19 teams. At present, the transfer expenditure of 8 teams in La Liga is higher than the income, and Real Madrid has the largest net expenditure of 0.1245 billion.
From the strength of the recruitment, it can be seen that Florentino was still bitter about the fact that Real Madrid did not win the Spanish championship and the Champions League last season, especially Real Madrid did not defeat Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium 0-4, it also made the Buddha see the gap with the top teams.

Among the players transferred from Real Madrid, Benzema obviously had the greatest influence on the team. Although the current Benzema is 35 years old and its speed and explosive power are declining, his series ability supported by delicate underfoot technology, the response consciousness and rich experience of the middle road can make Real Madrid attack more threatening. More importantly, after Benzema left the team, Real Madrid did not really serve as the No. 9 player in the first place. After all, Jose Lu is 33 years old. The remaining transferred players, Asencio itself is a substitute role, and the departure of Azar and Mariano will free up a lot of salary space for Real Madrid.

Among the players transferred by Real Madrid, the most powerful one was England midfield Bellingham, who was introduced with 0.103 billion euros. In the four pre-season matches of Real Madrid, Bellingham is also the player with the most playing time, which is enough to see Ancelotti’s emphasis on him.
Jose Lou and DIAS will be substitute roles. On the one hand, they make up for the decrease of local players caused by the departure of Asencio. On the other hand, as the top combat capability players, it can also be used by Ancelotti at any time during the long season. Juelaire, the Turkish talent introduced by Barca, will still start from the substitute. Although he shows excellent talent in daily training, he is still relatively thin and has no experience in top league matches, he was still injured under the strict training of pentus, but fortunately it was not serious. In contrast, Fran Garcia will get more playing time and may even directly squeeze out the vulnerable Mendi to become the main left guard of Real Madrid.
[New Season strength rating]]
1. Advantages and disadvantages of the team
The squad of Real Madrid generally seems to be very strong, and the alternation between the old and the new is reasonable, especially for almost every type of players in the midfield, which is also the advantage of Real Madrid.
(Picture: Real Madrid’s midfield lineup is stronger)
On the basis of having two grand ceremony midfields, cross and Modrich, Real Madrid introduced Joan Amini last season to make up for the shortage of the back position, which happened to catch up with the transfer of Casemiro to Manchester United, therefore, he directly played as a starting player. Joan Amini has a very balanced attack and defense, strong explosive force and good underfoot skills. However, after the World Cup, his status dropped rapidly, and he was also limited by injuries and his performance was flat.
Apart from valwade, the most advanced midfield player of Real Madrid, camarwinga, although he often cameed the left defender last season, his performance in the midfield is indisputable and the coverage area is very large, the protection of the left Road is also in place, which allows venius to reduce defense and stay more in the front court. Of course, Real Madrid has sevalos on standby, and the latter can also enhance Real Madrid’s control in the midfield.
On the basis of such a strong midfield lineup, Real Madrid introduced Bellingham this summer, which directly promoted the midfield strength to another level. Bellingham can not only connect and organize attacks in position 10, but also cooperate with the Brazilian double stars on both sides as pseudo 9 ambush in the middle road, or shoot in front of the preseason.

Compared with the midfield, Real Madrid has a little more problems in the back court and the front court, especially in the back court. Although Real Madrid’s right defender cavajar is still at the top, the 31-year-old also faces various problems of physical function decline, mainly because Real Madrid did not find a reliable substitute for cavajar, lucas Vazquez was not a side guard, and audrio Sola was also embarrassed and likely to be sold or rented. The left-side defender Mendi never got rid of the injury, and the preseason played very bright. Garcia was able to attack and defend and had strong round-trip ability, but it still took time to integrate into the Real Madrid system, especially on the left, he should learn to cooperate with venius. In the position of Zhongwei, the fixed starting points are militang and Alaba, while LV Digg and Nacho are substitutes.
In general, the problem of Real Madrid’s back-court defense is not a certain player, but the overall linkage is a little poor, especially when the offensive and defensive conversion, the defense line is too pressed, the space behind him has been used by opponents many times, and some positions still have hidden dangers in the long season.
(Picture: Will the next No. 9 player of Real Madrid be?)
The problem with Real Madrid’s front court is that there are no No. 9 players, and the staff reserves are insufficient, so they rely too much on the Brazilian double star. It is true that venius and Rodrigo have made rapid progress and already have the strength to be the only player in the front court, but the effect of their two partners and two strikers in the pre-season is not very good, the reason is that the two are used to Benzema’s containment of defensive manufacturing space in the middle road, and this consciousness has not been completely transformed. In a word, Real Madrid cannot have no real No. 9 player. Although Jose Lu is in good condition, his strength is not top, and it is difficult for strong dialogues to hold up the attack in the middle road.
(Photo: Will mbape, who is drifting away from Paris, move to Real Madrid this season?)
Of course, the most suitable candidate is mbap. Many fans think that the positions of mbapei and venius overlap, because the former often moves on the left, which is actually a stereotype. Mpepe was more active in the middle road in Greater Paris last season, but he was not a fulcrum center, but a strong point forward with a large range of running balls, much like Ronaldo during the three-company period of Real Madrid Champions League. At that time, although Ronaldo and Benzema were paired with two strikers, he also liked to take the ball on the left. The position was not fixed, which made it difficult for the opponent to follow the defense. If mbampe can come to Real Madrid this season, it will not only guarantee the goal, but also make Real Madrid Trident more flexible and easy to attack with a sense of hierarchy.
2. Forecast of the main lineup in the new season
In the four pre-season matches, Ancelotti basically dominated by rhombus 442 formation, which may also be the main lineup of Real Madrid’s new season-at least at the beginning of the season.
(Figure: Real Madrid players have strong flexibility)
In this formation, Alaba and militang served as the main central defenders, Mendi (without injury) and cavajar served as the left and right defenders respectively. In the midfield, camarwinga served as the defensive midfield. His left side is cross and his right side is Bellingham. In the front court, the three players were venius, Rodrigo and Valverde.
The formation of Real Madrid will be very flexible. Valverde will switch to 442 after retreating to the midfield. Venius and Rodrigo can undertake lighter defensive tasks. After Bellingham’s premise, Real Madrid’s midfield will show a rhombus position again. The advantage is to strengthen the control of the middle road and create space for the two front defenders. Of course, when Real Madrid organized the attack, Cross could also withdraw to two central defenders to take the ball, and Real Madrid would switch to the three central defenders. In any case, Real Madrid’s style of play will not change, and the core will not change, that is to organize attacks around venius.
(Figure: venius has grown significantly, and Benzema has become a well-deserved offensive core after leaving the team)
The “discrimination” incident last season will only make the 23-year-old venius heart stronger and more mature. Venius is undoubtedly the core of Real Madrid’s attack, especially after Benzema left the team. Venius is also in excellent pre-season status, and his ability to seize opportunities is getting stronger and stronger. His new season data should also be better.
For Real Madrid’s new season performance, it can be divided into two situations to predict. One is that without mbape, the goal is the champion of the King’s Cup and the Champions League, while the Champions League is the level of the top four. One is the introduction of mbape, then Real Madrid is definitely the most popular champion of La Liga and Champions League. It is completely strong and Manchester City compete. However, the future is full of unknowns. Real Madrid must grasp the present. Only by playing one game after another can they get closer to the goal.
