Perhaps it is too early to draw conclusions about whether this new demarcation Portuguese benefit or harm. Christian was not without opportunities. Especially in the second half, where Paris Saint Germain goalkeeper, Sirigu, he got four balls goal with successful interventions in different types of shot (head shot from distance, near and-kick). But I have a feeling of playing boxed and, less meters and mobility, not as spectacular as when booted from the band.
Open the 'locks'
will have to continue to pay attention to this new center forward position, shared with Benzema, who is joining Ancelotti. Nor can it be said to be immovable. The Portuguese like to run and when the team folds back to steal the ball, is the first reference to exit a counterattack.
The main deficiency that is Christian, forward, is the difficulty to play with his back to the goal. You must get the ball to pass or turn around and profiled to shoot. A movement that has to run in a few seconds, in a confined space and central pressure. In this kind of actions did well.
The question to ask is why Ancelotti wants to Cristiano Ronaldo as above. The explanation may be that the new coach aims to gather near the area to several players who play the ball quickly. We talked about Ozil, Isco, Modric and Benzema. These, plus the Portuguese, form a five forwards attack.
Real Madrid are going to find in the league a lot of teams that are going to lock back, they will bolt, and the formula passes these players combine to open those defenses.
Christian will not need to have as many meters in this type of games in which there will be meters to run. You have to get used to playing closer to the area, to be more opportunistic and smell the goal in these spaces. The other answer can be interpreted with the signing of Gareth Bale, if it occurs. The Welsh play further back, in the old position of Cristiano Ronaldo.
