What are the core forces within the Spanish national team?

It's the Real Madrid gang and the Barça gang.

In contrast, the core players of teams such as Valencia, Deportivo and Sevilla cannot be said to be insignificant within the national team, but it is indeed difficult to get strong support from the media and public opinion.

Real Madrid and Barca players are different.

Especially the captain-level players of both sides, the ring king Raul, the lion king Puyol, and the new captain of Real Madrid, Su Hang.

As well as the hopefuls and popular players of both sides, Ramos, Xavi, Iniesta.

Therefore, even if Real Madrid's Guti, Helguera, Bravo, Barca's Valdés and others are not selected, but the two fans do not speak, Aragonés's decision will not cause real opposition.

This trick is really high.

Speaking of Valdés, it's bad luck.

The position of the Spanish number one goalkeeper is certain, Casillas.

Whether in the national team or at the club, his two years of performance have been super-level.

Real Madrid fans even refer to him as "San Cassi", considering him a world-class goalkeeper comparable to Gianlu Buffon.

The remaining two goalkeeper positions are contested by Pepe Reina, Canizarez and Valdés.

Casillas one meter eighty-five, Valdés one meter eighty-three, Canizares one meter eighty-one, all three are small model goalkeepers.

So Pepe Reina, who is close to one meter nine, will definitely become one of the substitute goalkeepers.

This is also the reason why Reina and Valdés have always beaten Valdés when they were in the Barça youth team.

High!

An inch long, an inch strong, this is certain in goalkeeper learning.

The basic condition for future top goalkeepers is height and arm length.

As for those small-model goalkeepers, they can indeed contribute super saves, but the stability is worse than that of large-model goalkeepers.

Isn't the future Navas strong?

Quite strong.

But once Real Madrid have a chance to sign Courtois, do you think they have paid attention to Keylor Navas?

Age is not the key.

Height these basic conditions are.

Therefore, due to the sudden injury of Courtois at the beginning of the 2023 season, Real Madrid need to strengthen a goalkeeper. Most people think it's Kepa, but if there is any other choice, Real Madrid will not end up getting a small model Kepa.

Similarly, Casillas was born in 1981, and Pepe Reina and Valdés were born in 1982.

Twenty-three or four, still essentially young goalkeepers.

In particular, the position of goalkeeper itself has different age requirements, which can be roughly regarded as a twenty-year-old midfielder and an eighteen-year-old striker.

Strong is strong, but not stable enough.

So the advantage of Canizares in 1969 also appeared.

Veteran.

Play and steady.

Then he has to bring it too.

In this way, Valdés naturally has no place.

So that's fate.

When it comes to Casillas and Canizares, we have to mention the perfume incident of that year.

On the eve of the 2002 World Cup, Canizáles, a firm member of the Spanish national team, had an accident when he slipped a perfume bottle while washing in the hotel.

As a player, Canizares subconsciously flipped the perfume bottle with the instep of his foot, causing the perfume bottle to fall and smash, and then stepped on it again.

Causes injuries to the toe and Achilles tendon.

As a result, Casillas, who did not have many opportunities in the national team, became the lucky one.

At this stage, Casillas, Reina, Valdés, were not competitive at all, and as a result ....

At this point, Canizares basically lost his position as the number one goalkeeper of the Spanish team.

And Casillas' fame in the Champions League that year was also against Canizares.

It can be said that Casillas has today, all thanks to Canizares' "suicide promotion".

Since then, France and Brazil have also announced all the squads.

France: Zidane, Henry, Trezeguet, Cisse, Saha, Ribery, Vertod, Vieira, Makelele, Diarra, Thuram, Gallas, Sagnor, Sylvester, Battez ...

It is also a collection of superstars.

In particular, Zidane and Makelele came back from the national team last year to help France reach this World Cup.

But this raises questions about the strength of the French team.

After all, Zidane and Makelele are both a year older.

Although Zidane is still in style, is he tired after playing in the Champions League?

And after being called, Zidane also affirmed that this is the last journey of his national team career anyway.

Brazil: Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Kaka, Adriano, known as the magic quartet.

And Carlos, Gilberto Silva, Ze Roberto, Robinho, Emerson, Junior Junior, Edmilson, Lucio, Chicinho, Cafu, Cesar, Dida....

Among them, Robinho and Cincinho are all because of the highlights of this season at Real Madrid.

Robinho is known as Brazil's fifth duet!

Enough to prove that people are optimistic about him.

He has been outstanding in key competitions for Real Madrid this year, playing the role of a super substitute and wing raider.

......

The World Cup is just around the corner.

All major national teams have launched training camps.

Even captain-level figures such as Raul and Puyol went to the national team early to report.

But as early as three days before they arrived, some teams were already entering the training team.

Real Madrid and Barca played the Champions League final later than most players finish the season, so they can rest for two or three more days.

When Puyol arrived at the training site, he was told to go to his office in Aragonés.

But outside Aragonés' office, Puyol heard from a distance the voices of Aragonés and his assistants deliberating: "This is difficult to do now."

"Raul is the captain of the national team, but in the club, he gave the captain's armband to Su Hang last year."

He has also expressed his longing for being a mere player in several interviews. He is not a person who likes to discipline others.

"Therefore, in terms of military morale, morale and tradition, Raul is no longer suitable for the position of captain of the Bullfighting Legion."

"According to the unwritten rule of the football world, Casillas is the most qualified captain in terms of the number of appearances."

"But the problem is still that, Casillas is not the captain of Real Madrid, his club leader is Su Hang."

It is embarrassing to have two leaders in a team.

This is a serious blow to the authority of the leader.

Considering that the club is the more frequent environment for players, if there are players from the same team in a national team, and more than one of these players is qualified as captain, the captain of that club is often preferred.

This is only good for the cohesion of the club and the national team, not bad.
