Chapter 163 Eggsy's New Position
Of course, Zidane's tactics will never be decided on a whim. He needs to go back and look at all the game progress and various data reports before making a decision.
But it did not prevent Guti from laughing happily. Of course, such a smile made Zidane unhappy.
"It's rare that you can actually laugh." Zidane's face was grumpy. When he thought about who his hard-earned battle plan had to be changed for, he couldn't help but look back. At this time, Eggsy was playing and fighting with Ronaldo, and the other teammates were speechless.
After all, Ronaldo injured his ankle and should rest. And Eggsy, who had just been running on the court and sweating profusely, looked like he had been fished out of the water. Now, because he heard that Ronaldo would shave all his body hair, he is pulling at Ronaldo's clothes to see if it is true.
"Stop it! Eggsy!"
Today, Ronaldo couldn't run away because of his injured foot, and he could only be pressed down by Eggsy on a long row of seats in the back row, tickled by Eggsy, who kept struggling.
"Haha! You also have this day, Chris!"
"I want revenge today! Haha~"
"Hahaha! Stop it! Eggsy!!!"
Eggsy's strength training in the past few days was not in vain. He was now able to suppress Chris (who was injured). When he was about to bully him, Zidane in front of him suddenly coughed.
"uh-huh!"
Eggsy came down almost within a second, sat down obediently, and never dared to do anything rash again. The other teammates couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh crazily, but Eggsy glared at them: What are you laughing at! It's not my fault that I'm afraid of the head coach!
Eggsy was very sensitive to Zidane's "uh-huh" warning today, because he learned from assistant coach Guti that this was not the first time Zidane had given him some warnings today, this was the second time.
At the end of the game, the players of the opposing Real Sociedad wanted to come over and exchange jerseys with Eggsy, but Eggsy was about to take off his jersey without saying a word.
Players and teammates who are familiar with Eggsy know that this guy probably won't wear another piece of clothing under his jersey. Especially now is the hottest period of summer, if Eggsy takes it off, his upper body will definitely be exposed...
Zidane was looking at Eggsy at the time, and when he saw Eggsy grabbing his jersey with both hands, he wished he could use a loudspeaker to broadcast his "Uh-huh!" throughout the stadium.
But the stadium was too noisy, Eggsy didn't hear anything and just took off his jersey.
When everyone saw Eggsy's broad shoulders, thin waist, and beautiful body lines and muscular body, they really felt their eyes brightened. In addition, Eggsy's skin seemed to never get tanned, and there was a little bit of sweat on it, and his 190cm long legs. He walked from the center of the court to the long side with the jersey he exchanged with the opponent, and was constantly hugged and talked to by others along the way.
This also includes Real Madrid staff and teammates, and even Real Sociedad players.
Zidane rolled his eyes speechlessly. This kid could cause trouble for him if he didn't keep an eye on him for a moment! Guti, who was standing by, saw Zidane's ugly face and immediately turned around to get a big towel to hand to Eggsy. But Eggsy took the towel and smiled. He didn't notice Zidane's ugly face at all. He just wiped the sweat off his body, packed up his things and prepared to walk into the player's tunnel!
You know, there are many media squatting in the player tunnel, waiting to interview the players! What's wrong with this little guy Eggsy? Is he really indifferent to his appearance and others' coveting him? ? ?
Zidane was just about to go up and call Eggsy to tell him that it was okay even if he had to wear the big towel!
But as soon as he opened his mouth, Zidane was stopped by a group of reporters, and Eggsy just carried his sports bag and walked into the player's tunnel full of reporters...
Zidane was so angry that he couldn't help but bite his back teeth.
Eggsy was in the player tunnel, not caring at all about the cameras and flashes flashing on him. He was still thinking about taking a shower and seeing if any of his teammates had anything to eat for him, as he was a little hungry now.
As a result, as soon as he turned the corner, a group of reporters surrounded Brother Eggsy.
"How does Eggsy feel about wearing the captain's armband this time?"
"How do you feel about today's match against Real Sociedad? Are you satisfied with your performance?"
"Eggsy, you have been called up to the England national team. Will you attend the medical examination next week?"
Eggsy felt extremely tired when he saw the reporters who wanted to put the microphone into his mouth. He thought he could rest after the game, but now it seems that he can't escape at all.
"As for wearing the captain's armband this time," Eggsy smiled after keeping it a secret, "I feel a lot of pressure. I think it's not easy for my teammates who are captains~"
With a slightly exaggerated expression, Eggsy made many reporters laugh.
"I'm not very satisfied with my performance today. Although my teammates were excellent, I think I could have done better, at least I wouldn't be so nervous."
"As for the England call-up and medical, I will arrive on time."
After saying that, Eggsy wanted to slip away, but the reporters didn't try to stop him too much. When they wanted to stop Eggsy before, their motives were impure. They planned to take pictures of Eggsy's body to increase the clicks and activity of their own media.
At this time, Eggsy successfully entered the locker room, took a shower, and turned around to grab some food from his teammates. At least when Zidane came in, the kid had already taken a shower, dressed, and was eating an energy bar.
Zidane: ………………I didn’t find a chance to scold him, I’m so angry!
In fact, it is normal for Real Madrid players to like to walk around with their upper bodies naked. This habit really started with Ramos. In such hot weather, Ramos likes to pour some water on himself after the game. He walks back from the player tunnel with his upper body naked and then takes a shower.
Later, it was passed on to Modric, Pepe, and Ronaldo, and then Eggsy and other players followed suit. It was mainly because the weather in Spain is hot in the summer, and the players wanted to dissipate heat quickly, so they started to follow suit.
While Zidane was calling on all the players to get on the bus, he was still thinking about how to discipline Real Madrid. Walking around the streets with the upper body naked was definitely not an acceptable behavior!
However, after getting on the bus, when Zidane looked at the player data of this game handed over by Guti, he looked at Eggsy and fell into deep thought.
“Such a high level of running and coverage?”
Guti did not answer this question because the data records are already very clear.
"You can also look at his ball possession rate."
After Eggsy got the armband, his ball possession rate rose sharply to 71.35%, which was a ball possession rate that even the entire Real Madrid midfield could not achieve in its first attack.
Even Zidane himself didn't get the ball possession rate when he was in the midfield of Real Madrid and had the first generation of Galacticos! His highest ball possession rate was 68.77%!
Seeing these data, Zidane couldn't help but take a deep breath. No wonder every time Real Sociedad's attack reached the midfield, it would be dragged down. Eggsy's disruption, pursuit, and blocking were all very effective.
The most important thing is that Eggsy's stopping, holding and even passing of the ball on the court are all quite concealed, and Eggsy found that when his teammates could not react as quickly as the starting players or fill in the positions properly, he could still make his passes extremely accurate and concealed to ensure that Real Madrid's passes and distribution would not go wrong.
High-altitude balls and even C-shaped passes around the side were all Eggsy's performances on the court today. His performance gave his teammates a great psychological boost, so much so that in the second half, when the players didn't know how to break through or attack, they would pass the ball to Eggsy.
Why?
Because even if it is a knife-edge ball, Eggsy can still take it down steadily and then launch the next round of attack. In this regard, Eggsy's master Modric can only be said to be effective in breakthroughs and tactical arrangement. But Eggsy can do global attack and even tactical layout!
The most crucial thing is that when Eggsy did not wear the captain's armband, although Real Madrid was implementing Zidane's tactics, the attack and retreat were a bit poorly connected, and they were even in a state of being stolen and intercepted by Real Sociedad.
As soon as Eggsy came up, his position became adjusted according to tactics and strategies, and Real Madrid's attack and retreat became very orderly. This also led to a direct decline in Real Sociedad's attack and ball possession rate. Later, Eggsy saw through the offensive conspiracy and route, so he directly blocked their right side and forced them to come to the left for a fixed-point interception.
Each of these steps was to seize the opponent's weak spot and launch a fierce attack. Even if there was no weak spot, Eggsy would find a way to create one for them!
"This kid has quite good tactical strategies." Zidane looked at the subsequent game data and his opinion of Eggsy changed.
If Zidane originally positioned Eggesi as Modric's substitute and the second generation of Modric, now he knows that he may have a terrible midfielder in his hands - an offensive, tactical midfielder.
Another way of saying it is: false number 9.
When faced with an absolutely difficult battle situation, Eggsy may become the core of the team that turns the tables or even turns defeat into victory!
So Zidane was thinking from the moment he got on the bus to the club, how should he train Eggsy, a player whose ball sense, basketball IQ, physical fitness, mental attributes, and even IQ are so overwhelming that he suppresses others?
But what Zidane didn't know was that his precious midfielder Eggsy, who was currently thinking about how to train, didn't bring his keys with him, so he forced himself to doze off and leaned against the door of his room. He almost couldn't stand and fell down because he was so sleepy.
