Chapter 131 National Team

Gago had fun with his family for two days at his home, and his two brothers rushed back the next day. These were two optimistic and cheerful men. They were very happy to see Gago. After all, the family was full of yin and yang, and except for the two of them, the youngest brother was a boy.

Through these two days of contact, Gago finally made Knight agree with his younger brother. Finally, he suggested to his family that he would send Knight to a psychologist for treatment. It was not a solution to keep going like this. In the past, it was a family problem, but now he is making more and more money, so he is willing to spend this amount.

Xia Weier and Alicia discussed it for a while, and thought it was right, so they started to make arrangements. However, the two brothers who solved this problem were two brothers. They worked in the United States, and some players were under a lot of psychological pressure when playing basketball, so they needed to talk to a psychiatrist. As nutritionists, they also knew some famous people. Through their relationship, they found a mit psychology professor Eddie. After hearing about Knight's condition, he was very curious and agreed to take over her treatment.

Once this matter was resolved, Gago felt a lot more relaxed. In a word, his mood has risen to a higher level.

After the two-day short vacation, Gago received a call from Argentina's national team coach Basilé, informing him to arrive at the national team's training base as soon as possible.

This time, Argentina's internationals gathered in the capital Buenos Aires, and the national team borrowed the training base of Boca Youth. That is, where Gago debuted, it can be said that he is the second home. Over the past ten years, he has gradually risen from the ninth echelon of Boca Youth to the first team.

Early in the morning, Gago came to this familiar candy box stadium. Since there was no car, his sister Xia Weier took him to the club. Because she wanted to cheer for Gago, Xia Weier and Linaya invited a month's vacation. They both did nothing and started to come to the stadium to cheer for Gago every day. In addition to their mother, brother and sister, Gago's family was a big scenery on the side of the court.

Since Basil is not the head coach of Dunga who is an iron-fisted military manager, Gago is able to go home every day as long as it does not affect training. However, this is only limited to the period of training in China.

Since the La Liga ended relatively late, Gago, as the main core of Real Madrid, played until June 17, and the days of celebration and rest were celebrated and rested, and he did not join the national team until the 20th. The Copa America started on June 28, so the training time was very tight. After training together in China for five days, he flew to Venezuela together.

Argentina was assigned to Group C as the No. 1 seed in this Cup of America, with the United States, Paraguay and Colombia. A total of twelve teams were divided into three groups, with a single loop system, winning 3 points, summing 1 point, losing 0 points. The top 2 and 2 teams in each group will advance to the semi-semi-finals. Unlike the World Cup, there is no overtime for the Copa America, and the legal time is 90 minutes, and the score is directly scored 12 yards to determine the outcome.

Of course, according to Gago's memory, the next Copa America canceled such rules and began to introduce overtime. However, this has nothing to do with the present. There is still no overtime in the Copa America in 2007.

Like Gago, they are La Liga stars such as Messi, Milito and Aimal. Every place has factions, and the national team is no exception. The largest faction in Argentina is naturally the Inter Milan Gang, Zanetti, Cambiaso, and Crespo, which are famous stars from Inter Milan, and even their opinions must be considered again and again.

Although Gago has played super data at Real Madrid this season, he has contributed a total of twenty assists and nine goals to the team in the league, the Copa del Rey, and the Champions League. However, in the national team, his position is always a seniority, and his position is very embarrassing.

Pampas's midfield core is definitely Riquelme, the last classical midfielder, and even Gago is now unable to shake it. In the midfielder position, Mascherano's defensive ability is recognized as the strongest. In the midfielder position of the midfielder, Cambiaso of Inter Milan is more well-known than him.

Given the current situation of Gago, it is probably difficult to get into the main position from the beginning. It can be seen during training that he has been assigned to the substitute side. However, this made Boca fans on the scene very unhappy. Gago is the pride of the Candy Box Stadium and cannot occupy a main position in the midfield.

Every time the team trains, some hardcore Boca fans booed at Basil. Especially Rui'na, the jumping man, saw that his younger brother could not play the main player, and he booed the loudest on the sidelines every time.

This situation has also attracted reports from Argentine media that are paying attention to the national team.

"Real Madrid's core is unable to occupy a main position in the midfield."

"Redondo II may set off Redondo's back in the national team"

"The "Luxury" Pampas Midfielder"

...

The largest sports newspaper in Argentina, The Ole, conducted a special survey to select the main candidates for the midfielder in their minds. The final result gave Gago a big face, Mascherano ranked first with 39% of the votes, while Gago ranked second with a disadvantage of 37.6%. Inter Milan's general Cambiaso ranked third with 22.4%.

"Ole" has a well-deserved first place among Argentine nationals, and this result puts coach Basilé under a lot of pressure. The greater pressure is in the team's training match. During the five-day training session in China, the main team and the substitute held an airport practice match. The result makes Basilé even more embarrassing.

The side of Gago led the substitute and played three games with the main team. The final result was that the substitute team was one win and two draws and remained unbeaten. The main midfield combination, Riquelme and Perron basically did not defend, and the two also interfered with each other. Mascherano's defensive ability to stick with him was indeed not overwhelming, and Gago felt a lot of pressure when facing him. However, during the training match, Gago thoroughly implemented an organizer figure, constantly mobilizing the team's combat effectiveness with passing, avoiding his defense.

In fact, the substitute's strength is not bad. The cooperation between Tevez and Milito on the front line is not worse than that of Crespo and Messi. Especially Messi's performance as soon as he arrived at the national team made the main side able to score only by relying on Crespo, who is still strong.

Gago knew the abilities of the players in his team. He, Tevez and Milito, the frontcourt trident, constantly passing the ball and replacing the position, fully exerting his strength.

Teves is short and flexible on the front line, and his physical ability to fight is not bad. He is at the front, Milito continues to cruise in the back line, and behind the two Gago keeps feeding the balls. As long as they run out of the open ball, they will reach their feet. If Mascherano and Cambiaso defend Gago together, then another midfielder Aimal will stand up and take over Gago's mission. If one person is unable to completely block Gago, so the substitute performs extremely well. Especially when they hold their breath and want to defeat the main force and let themselves sit in that position.

The most important thing is that Riquelme was abandoned for half a season due to the conflict with Pellegrini this season. He was unable to get into the state for a long time. Moreover, he was a classic midfielder who was used to controlling the midfield alone, and put a Peron beside him to share the ball. As a result, the two midfield masters found that they were depressed in the frontcourt. Both of them habitually wanted to be the core, but they died directly.

As a result, a few days later, countless Argentine celebrities came forward to criticize Basil's arrangement of troops. They believed that he could not put the Pampas stars into a group and exert their greatest strength. In particular, Maradona, the number one fan of Boca youth, stood up and supported Gago, believing that his strength should occupy a main position.

Basilílai and Maradona have a good relationship. When Basilí became famous, he led the Boca youth. Then, under the recommendation of Maradona, he became the head coach of the national team. When Gago entered the first team, Basilílai was the head coach of Boca youth.

It can be said that Gago was able to become the core of the team one year after his debut in Boca. In addition to the appreciation of celebrities such as Redondo and Maradona, the head coach of Basilère was the most powerful coach at that time.

However, Gago did not disappoint him, and he became better every year. After entering Real Madrid this year, his condition exploded. He helped the White Army win the league again after four years.

After Maradona came forward to speak, Basile put Gago as the main player in the fourth day of the training match. However, several veteran qualifications of the national team did not object to his decision.

Suddenly, Gago understood the thoughts of the head coach of the national team. If he rashly mentioned Gago to the starting position, no matter which one he took in the midfield, it would cause dissatisfaction among the old stars. These old guys would be afraid that the next young man would squeeze him down, so they might unite to exclude new players.

This is not an exaggeration. The reputation of Inter Milan Barbecue Gang has resounded throughout all the wealthy families.

Through a few days of training matches, the old man saw that Gago was indeed very powerful and he could bring the team's strength to the next level. In this way, a person without any backstage was removed. For the sake of national honor and external pressure, some big shots in the locker room could not say anything.

When Gago entered the starting position, the person who was most injured was Peron. As a midfielder, he unconsciously competed for the ball with Riquelme. In addition, he offended a group of people at Inter Milan that year, so he was transferred to the bench as a victim.

Cambiaso had to grab a position in the midfield because of the Inter Milan gang.

However, Gago's position was advanced, and he was arranged to assist by Riquelme. Barsile defined him as a free agent in the midfield.

Just like Iniesta's role in Barcelona's lineup.

There is no way, neither of the two back midfielders dared to withdraw.
