After the fiasco of Pariswhere the result was not as bad as the sensations, Ancelotti he has realized that he has to change the plan of the famous low block. The Italian has recognized that he is going to try to get his team to press higher when he does not have the ball so as not to be as much at the mercy of the rival as we saw against him PSG. But to press well in the open field you have to have a lot of legs and freshness, because if you arrive late to that pressure or you don’t do it in a uniform way, you make it easier for the rival to get to your goal.
What’s more, the idea of waiting further back was conceived to avoid overexertion of veterans, to protect Modric and Kroos, who are no longer for permanent round trips. yes now Carletto he wants his midfielders to go higher for the rival, he will have to put more oxygen in that line. For this he has two options: add one more player and opt for a 4-4-2 or give youngsters like Valverde and Camavinga for veterans to rest. There are two league games before the return leg with the French and, although they are very important, they have to serve to test that gear change and that refreshment to prevent someone from getting the flu.
