Every Christmas, Real Madrid management invites players, coaches and staff from the Football and Basketball departments to come and gather to hold a Christmas party, and adjust the time according to the schedule.

Since Real Madrid is going to Morocco to participate in the Club World Cup this year, Real Madrid's Christmas dinner was arranged at noon the next day of the Champions League group stage, and the location was also chosen in the honor room of the Bernabeu Stadium.

The trophys originally placed were put away, the windows were moved away, and the banquet was set up in the huge honor room.

Many people often think of football when they talk about Real Madrid, but in fact, Real Madrid's basketball team is also quite good, but with its influence around the world, football is obviously far superior to basketball.

Every year at Christmas dinner, Real Madrid invites Spanish chefs to attend, and famous chefs from Spain and even Europe are proud to accept the invitation from Real Madrid. Juan House Barbecue Restaurant is a must-visit chef for every banquet in Real Madrid.

In addition to the players, coaching staff and staff, there were also members from the management and the board of directors. Everyone gathered together, and the atmosphere of the whole banquet was quite lively.

Real Madrid's results this season are obvious to all. Currently, the La Liga counterattack has reached the top, leading the standings with a two-point advantage, Barcelona ranks second, and Atletico Madrid is third. As for Sevilla and Valencia, they have frequently lost points after entering November and have long lost their momentum.

This is also a serious problem for mid- and lower-stream teams, that is, insufficient momentum.

To put it simply, the bench is not thick enough and the lineup is too thin.

La Liga leads, and the Champions League group stage has an amazing record of winning all six games, qualifying as the top spot in the group. Both report cards are excellent enough to make Real Madrid stand out, the management is also very satisfied, and the players are also harmonious.

Therefore, the atmosphere on the scene was quite lively.

Real Madrid President Florentino personally hosted this warm and warm Christmas lunch and delivered a speech, affirming the achievements made by all Real Madrid players, and also encouraging the players to continue their efforts.

The management believes that Real Madrid can still gain something this season, and it goes without saying that La Liga is also quite competitive. I hope that all players can focus on the game and strive for another good result.

Florentino even said in a half-joking way that if the team can defend the triple crown, the club will also appreciate it and give everyone an unprecedented heavy reward.

The personal commitment from the chairman has undoubtedly greatly improved the morale and fighting spirit of the players in Real Madrid. Many people stood up and applauded and supported the chairman's bold words, especially the captain Ramos, who threatened to lead the team to win all the championships.

Yang Yang did not participate in it and did not take the rewards particularly seriously, but he still valued honors very much, because if he could really defend the triple crown, it would be the strongest achievement in his career.

Since ancient times, the triple crowns of the five major leagues have been rare, and the defending triple crowns is unprecedented.

If Real Madrid really can defend their title, it will definitely make fans all over the world crazy.

...

Like all official occasions, Real Madrid's Christmas lunch is also announced by Real Madrid TV, and photos are posted on the official website, and some contents are even live broadcast, so the agent and position are more important.

Ancelotti, Zidane, Bardano and others sat in the chief with Florentino, especially Ancelotti, who was specially arranged to be next to Florentino. This is obvious that Real Madrid values ​​Ancelotti.

In the past few years when the Italian fat man coached, Real Madrid has achieved great results. More importantly, Real Madrid has completed its transformation in his hands.

After the first phase of the Galaxy collapsed, Real Madrid transformed from its original offensive football style to a defensive style. Afterwards, head coaches such as Capello, Juander Ramos and Schuster, all of them adopted defensive styles. When they arrived in Benitez, although the team's offense was sharp, the defensive counterattack was still the tone.

In his first season as Ancelotti coached, although he won the triple crown, he actually still had a defensive counterattack style. He then tried to transform, failed, but also succeeded. Later, with the gradual rise of players such as David Silva, Modric, and Real Madrid began to adopt more passes and ball control styles.

This season, Real Madrid's offensive football has shined.

Many people like to compare Real Madrid and Barcelona's possession, but in fact, these are two different concepts.

Real Madrid's pass and ball control is still mainly practical. Although there is a backcourt pass and control rhythm, it is more for direct passes and long passes. The team's pass and ball control starting point is for goals.

Barcelona hopes to use the ball rights to control the rhythm and dare not try or take risks easily.

This makes Real Madrid's style more risky and makes more mistakes. However, this season, Real Madrid has significantly reduced its pass and reception mistakes, both in terms of pass and reception mistakes. In addition to the ball possession rate, the passing success rate and other data are better than Barcelona, ​​and the offense is also more threatening.

It can be said that in Ancelotti's hands, Real Madrid has really completed the transition from defensive counterattack to ball-control attack.

Real Madrid was very satisfied with this. Because of this, this fat Italian man with a stomach full of bad water was able to sit next to Real Madrid chairman Florentino and was always talking enthusiastically with Florentino.

Yang Yang did not have privileges. He sat with all the players, and everyone was talking and laughing.

During the banquet, Florentino and the board members also walked around and entertained the players everywhere.

Yang Yang was always the focus of attention of the audience, and there was always a constant stream of people around him. It was not until the banquet was coming to an end and his teammates were having a fuss, so he gained some personal space.

But before he could take a good break, Florentino greeted him with a smile.

...

Yang Yang always felt that Florentino's smile was quite terrible.

Of course, it’s not that his smile is sinister or something. On the contrary, the Real Madrid chairman never tends to use those methods that cannot be put on the table, but his smile is very politician.

Maybe he smiles at you now, and the next moment he will make a decision to expel you from Real Madrid.

Over the years, Yang Yang has been used to seeing all kinds of people. He has come into contact with good people like Morati, two former Liverpool bosses, and three Barcelona presidents. If he is asked to choose, he will still choose Florentino.

This is a capable person!

Yang Yang asked himself that he was a person who values ​​emotions, so he was always emotional, but he had to admit that to running a company and a club, he still needed to do this like Florentino.

Just like Inter Milan's Morati, being too emotional is not necessarily a good thing.

But every time he sees Florentino, Yang Yang still can't help but guess in his heart. In his seemingly kind smile, how much is sincere and how much is false?

In the end, he had to admit every time that he couldn't guess.

Florentino was mainly concerned about Yang Yang's condition and his physical condition, and Yang Yang also answered truthfully.

Every professional player has more or less injuries, and Yang Yang is no exception. For example, his left shoulder often feels uncomfortable, but this will not affect his game.

Florentino later talked about the current situation of the team. What really caught Yang Yang's attention was that Florentino mentioned a report from UEFA's technical team.

"According to their technical report research and analysis, our training quality is relatively low compared to other top European teams. They suggested that we improve the training intensity in the report. What do you think about this?"

Yang Yang glanced at Ancelotti in the distance. He was drinking with his old partner, his son and son-in-law, talking and laughing, and having fun. He seemed to have no idea that the UEFA technical team stabbed him in the back.

But it's normal, this is a matter at the club management level.

"I think our training is OK." Yang Yang said frankly.

Ancelotti's training quality cannot be considered high, but it is not as severe as the report says.

The outside world has always questioned Ancelotti's coaching team, and many people even believe that he is nepotism and privately teaching, and has inserted his son, son-in-law and assistant's son.

Although the salary is paid by him as the head coach, it is somewhat suspicious of being a bit of affair with experience.

As a Real Madrid player, Yang Yang said unbiasedly that no one can guarantee that Ancelotti does not have such a mind. After all, he also wants his son and son-in-law to find a way out, but his training quality is indeed good.

"We have a lot of pressure on the game. Starting from August, we have been playing double games for a week. There are many international players. In September, October and November, our international players have participated in a large number of national team competitions. Modric has severe muscle tear, which shows that we are really very tired, so training is more focused on adjustments, and it is normal for the strength to be inferior to other teams."

"I think this report can be used for reference, but there is no need to compare. You think, how many more games do we have to play than other teams? One European Super Cup, two Spanish Super Cups, and two Club World Cups next. This is not the game that the three national teams played during the match day."

Florentino is not ignorant of the ball, on the contrary, he understands very well, so he knows that playing five extra games is a heavy pressure and burden for any team, not to mention that Real Madrid itself is fighting on the third line.

It is not difficult to see from his repeated nodding that he at least accepted Yang Yang's statement.

Not only Yang Yang, technical director Bardano, and chairman consultant Zidane, their opinions are the same as Yang Yang.

It can be used for reference, but there is no need to be serious about it.

It can be seen that this matter was just Florentino consulting Yang Yang by the way. He actually found Yang Yang with other more important things.
