The footballing world was shocked on Monday with the news of Zinedine Zidane reappointment as manager of Real Madrid.The Frenchman stepped down from his Bernabeu post just ten months ago after becoming the first coach in history to win the Champions League on three successive occasions.7
Style of play
Zidane was seen as more of a man manager in his first stint in charge at Real rather than a coach who offered concrete tactical solutions to problems.His formation was primarily a standard 4-3-1-2 but that often morphed into a 3-5-2 with Casemiro dropping into defence and emphasis on Marcelo and Carvajal attacking very high up the pitch and linking with the midfield.In his standard 4-3-1-2 Casemiro was used as the sole defensive midfielder, with Luka Modric and Toni Kroos playing alongside each other further forward.Modric was the main ball carrier in the middle of the park and Kroos the main distributor.Zidane preferred three up top were Karim Benzema, Isco and Cristiano Ronaldo – with Gareth Bale featuring mainly from the bench and often for Isco.Benzema would drop deep to link the play and Ronaldo he was the main target man in the side.Real Madrid line-up vs Liverpool in UCL final 2018…7Possible departures
Bale has been making the headlines frequently in recent weeks and that is not about to stop.He is the most likely to depart following Zidane’s arrival as he is reportedly unpopular with his team-mates and also unpopular with the supporters, despite often rising to the big occasion and boasting a superb goal-scoring record since his record-breaking arrival.Zidane preferred Isco in his line-up when he was manager and he swerved questions about the Welshman in his first press conference on Monday.It seems as though as Bale’s Bernebeu career may well be coming to an end and he could be the first to depart in the summer.7Possible formations with new signings
Zidane has reportedly been promised three ‘big-money’ signings in the summer.This is a frightening thought for Real’s competitors – with Eden Hazard, Kylian Mbappe, Neymar, Christian Eriksen and most recently N’Golo Kante linked to a switch to the Spanish capital.With three of those five players wingers, one can expect that at least one of them will be signed in the summer and Zidane will therefore facilitate the need for two wingers in a front three.The most obvious signing would be Hazard, who has long dreamt of a move to Los Blancos and idolises Zidane.7Manchester United Squad Salaries 2017-18 Alexis Sanchez has replaced Paul Pogba as the highest paid United player with a salary of around £350,000 a week while with the departures of Rooney and Ibrahimovic its set reduce their wage bill considerably.
