1336 Guilty defense

The past six years have undoubtedly been the most prosperous six years in La Liga ever.

Why do you say so?

Because, in the past, the old enemies of Real Madrid and Barcelona were often in turn, but in recent years, the two teams have reached the peak of history and are both in the most glorious period.

Not to mention the distance, from the 1990s to the present, first Cruyff’s Barcelona Dream Team, but then was defeated by Real Madrid by Bardano. Since then, Barcelona has fallen into a dark trough that lasted nearly ten years, and Real Madrid ushered in the glory of winning the Champions League three times in five years, including the first phase of the Galaxy Battleship at the beginning of the new century.

But after Rijcard created the Barcelona Dream Team 2, Real Madrid completely fell into a dark period. After that, Guardiola created the Dream Team 3, pushing Barcelona football to the peak of history. Real Madrid ushered in a comprehensive revival in 2009, marked by Florentino's return and Yang Yang's joining.

Since 2009, both Real Madrid and Barcelona have reached the peak. The two teams have reached the Champions League semi-finals in five seasons in the past six seasons, and the only one has not entered the semi-finals. That is because Real Madrid and Barcelona meet in the quarter-finals knockout stage, but in terms of strength, both teams have the strength to compete for the Champions League championship.

It would be fine if it was just a pair of Western Premier League players, but in recent years, Atletico Madrid has emerged and has performed more and more fiercely.

In the La Liga, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid competed in three matches. When they arrived at the Champions League, the three La Liga strong teams also had the strength to reach the Champions League semi-finals, and even had the situation where the three La Liga semi-finals all entered the Champions League semi-finals.

It can be said that except for La Liga and the top three, no one else wants to see this situation.

But whether it is Real Madrid, Barcelona or Atletico Madrid, their strength has been relatively stable in recent years. Needless to say, Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​after losing many stars, Atletico Madrid still showed strong competitiveness, which is enough to make people afraid.

In the past few years, the overall competition of the Premier League has been very fierce, but the top teams have been weak in competition. Manchester United has fallen with Ferguson's retirement, Arsenal has been weak for a long time, and there is no need to say much about Chelsea and Liverpool. It will take some time and opportunity to rise to the upstart Manchester City, which is most likely to become a La Liga rival, does not have such ability.

There were Bayern Munich and Dortmund in the Bundesliga, but now Dortmund is not as good as before, and Juventus in Serie A is also lacking in some quality.

In other words, looking at the entire European football world, there are only a handful of teams that can challenge the top three in La Liga.

What makes people even more frightened is that the purchasing power of the top three La Liga is still very amazing.

Although Barcelona is in a financial dilemma, it still wants to introduce superstars and continue to fight against Real Madrid. Real Madrid is even more exaggerated. With the completion of the new stadium renovation project this summer, it is said to have a transfer budget of up to 2500 million euros, which is a very terrible number.

In this case, if Real Madrid and Barcelona continue to recruit top stars, it will only make them stronger and stronger, and eventually form an oligopolistic effect.

So, I don’t know who acted as the brave Cavalier and stepped forward to report it. First it was Barcelona, ​​now it was Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. If the three La Liga top players are restricted from transfer signing, it will definitely be a blessing for other top European teams.

Of course, if flies do not bite seamless eggs, Real Madrid must have problems.

But the most important thing now is not accountability, but finding ways to solve the trouble caused by the transfer ban.

...

The transfer ban will not affect the winter break, but will target summer transfers and next year's winter break transfers.

For Real Madrid, the best way is to sign players during the winter break and strengthen the team's strength. In this way, even if the appeal fails, Real Madrid doesn't need to worry.

But there is a problem. Real Madrid did not plan to sign up for the winter break, but now it is late January. The time left for Real Madrid is only ten days, which is far from enough for Real Madrid to operate.

As early as December, Real Madrid's coaching staff and technical team communicated about the summer transfer in 1920. In addition to Morata and Asensio, Zidane and Yang Yang wanted to get a midfielder to replace Mascherano.

The player I currently like is Ngolo Kante of Leicester City.

But the problem is that Leicester City currently ranks first in the Premier League standings. They are the main midfielder who will never let the team go during the winter break. How can they play in the second half?

But in addition to Kanter, looking at European football, there are several excellent midfielders?

Winter break transfers have always been a supplement, not as important as summer transfers.

Zidane insisted that the team could give it a try, contact Leicester City and try to introduce Kante, but technical director Bardano made it clear that this was unrealistic. Even if Leicester City agreed, the price Real Madrid paid was very amazing.

It was as if Chelsea tried to introduce Torres and paid 50 million pounds, far exceeding everyone's expectations.

According to the current situation, if Real Madrid wants to force Kanter, they can only spend money to convince Leicester City.

"I think the best result is that we appeal and strive to postpone the ban until after the summer transfer. We will take action as soon as possible after the summer transfer is opened." After seeing the differences between Zidane and Valdano, Yang Yang suggested.

After hearing this, everyone thought that this proposal made sense, but the premise was to postpone the ban.

De Bras frowned and thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Barcelona appealed, and FIFA did not respond immediately. There is still room for operation. We can try to contact FIFA first and delay the time for a while. Even if FIFA still maintains the original judgment in the future, we can continue to appeal to the International Sports Arbitration Tribunal in Lausanne. The final result may not be that FIFA will win."

The International Court of Arbitration for Sport, referred to as Cas, is an international arbitration institution located in Lausanne, Switzerland specially established to resolve sports disputes. It can be said to be the authority of the international sports community.

"I remember that Barcelona had appealed to Cas, but they didn't win." Yang Yang remembered the news.

De Bras smiled slightly and nodded, "Yes, but we will learn from Barcelona's lessons."

"What do you mean?" Yang Yang was a little surprised.

"I have studied Barcelona's case. They appealed to defend innocent people, but in fact we all know how difficult it is to defend innocent people in this kind of thing, so I personally think that if we really go to that point, we should defend guilt and strive to reduce the punishment."

After De Blas said this, Yang Yang immediately understood what he meant and couldn't help but agree with it.

After all, it is a famous barrister in Madrid and even Spain. It is not simple, and it suddenly finds the crux of the problem.

Let me put it this way, if you really want to talk about the tricks of introducing young players, there are basically few clubs in European football. For example, in order to introduce a certain player, some teams will arrange work for the players' families in various ways, thereby avoiding the age limit of 18 years old.

Is this a problem? Yes, neither!

If you really want to check, this is definitely a problem, but almost all teams are doing this, who is clean?

There is a special agency over FIFA that monitors these matters, don't they know?

I know, but I always turn a blind eye. If no one complains, they will be happy to be idle. This is what is called "Do not blame the public". When everyone does this, it is impossible to ban it.

Then the question arises. When someone complains that FIFA must start intervening, you can only complain about your unluckyness, and you cannot confront FIFA and ask, "Everyone is like this, why are you just arresting me alone?"

No club would be willing to be the kid in the emperor's new outfit unless he didn't want to get through.

Barcelona defended the innocence of the International Sports Arbitration Court, but it was proved later that this was not working at all, because FIFA issued an injunction, which was because they had evidence of Barcelona's transfer violations, and Barcelona definitely could not prove its innocence, so Barcelona lost.

De Blas learned from it, and he wanted to defend guilt.

In other words, Real Madrid has to admit that they have indeed violated the rules, but the circumstances are not as serious as FIFA said. Then they only need to prove that some of the FIFA's crimes were too serious, which is much easier than Barcelona's original defense of innocence.

After realizing this, Yang Yang had to admit that Real Madrid's resources were indeed good enough.

Not to mention anything else, just barristers like De Bras are really not easy.

But even so, De Bras still can't guarantee that he will be able to postpone the ban until next summer, so he still hopes that Real Madrid can be prepared for both ways to deal with various complex situations.

Zidane, Yang Yang and Bardano are also wary of the transfer ban, but they all believe that with Real Madrid's current bench thickness, even if the ban is really released, the problem is not very big.

"The most important thing is to be able to retain players, and to improve their enthusiasm." Yang Yang said confidently. He firmly believes that with Real Madrid's lineup, as long as the players maintain the enthusiasm of the game, Real Madrid can cope with any situation, even including not signing players for two consecutive years.

Zidane is also very confident about this, but he still misses Ngolo Kante.

"I still hope that the club can get in touch with Leicester City during the winter break, or we can get in advance, or sign it first, and wait until when will it be brought in."

Obviously, Zidane is really looking forward to this French compatriot.

Barcelona is like this. They signed Tulan and Vidal, but they were unable to register due to the transfer ban.

In terms of midfielder signing, Real Madrid's number one target is Kante. Under the shadow of the transfer ban, Real Madrid will only consider selling Mascherano if it is introduced. Otherwise, Argentine players will definitely stay in the team.

This is the first time that Yang Yang has experienced such a situation. Real Madrid faced a transfer ban from FIFA, but he felt that after a high-level meeting, everyone seemed to feel that there was nothing to be afraid of.
