In Leipzig, Real Madrid did not show their best form of the season. On the contrary, the opposite is true. The first half was mediocre and the second half was a team that knew how to control the game.
In addition to the victory, Ancelotti also acquired several excellent players from the ** stadium, the main goalkeeper Lunin for the rest of the season, or until the return of Courtois; Brahin, a 'No.10' player who was once not liked by him, but now it is difficult to squeeze him out of the starting line-up, at least during Bellingham',......s injuryAnd, also get a central defender who has proven to have all the requirements of football ability.
France has always been the cradle of producing excellent centre-backs. In the recent past, I have thought of Desailly, Poli, Tresol, Thuram, Varane, Gallas, Blank, ......And now, there are Saliba, Konat, Upamecano, Disasi, Pavard, Lucas, Condé ......The French player at the Bernabeu is said to not like to play as a defender and prefers to be the role he has always had, a midfielder, either alone or with his team-mates, as in the national team. However, preferences aside, 'No.18' must admit that he has plenty of quality at the back. Of course, he had to learn the technical requirements of a defender. Improve your position, improve your anticipation, and ...... when to fall without being overcomeBut he has everything else.
Tchouameni is a centre-back from the inside out. He has been forced to play in this position for three consecutive games, and in those three games he has been partnered with Rudiger, Carvajal and Nacho. He made the trio better because he provided them with support, assistance, and surveillance. Another huge advantage he has in this position is that he can help midfielders when passing. In a team that has possession and a lot of time on the ball, a centre-back who can get involved in the attack is a valuable asset. You can create a numerical advantage and a second attacking option in midfield. In addition, he excels with the ball in the air and has a ...... of long passing ability like Ramos, Militão and Alaba
His career as a centre-back at Real Madrid could be linked to Kroos' career. If the German renews his contract, he will remain a semi-permanent candidate for the heart of the midfield, alongside Camavinga. If the Germans left, it seemed all the more necessary for Tchouameni to go where he had always been. After all, that's his natural position, and wasting his physical advantage where it's most needed in the game may sound like a bit of a luxury. In the open field and the area of influence with a wide area, there are very few players like him.
Ancelotti knew this and ended the night in Leipzig, half-jokingly: "I told him it was an emergency and see if I could find another way to convince him." He is willing to do it in an emergency, but what will he say when there is no emergency......”
