Q: There are many young players in the team now, such as Guler, Mastantuono, and Huizen. Based on your experience, how do you think such young players should position themselves in this level of competition? What advice would you give them to help them cope with the pressure of playing at this level?
Makelele: "I think football is undergoing huge changes now. If you look at the current generation of players. I mean competitions such as the Premier League and Ligue 1, you can see many young players.
"I think young players today are more open-minded. Their way of thinking is different from ours in the past, and the way we prepare for games before. Because our generation has more experience to draw on, whether it is the experience of playing in the national team or the understanding of the operating logic of European men's football.
"Teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona have a lot of young players, and Real Madrid also has a lot of experienced old players who can play a big role. For me, one of the biggest challenges in football is that you have to deal with pressure. So in the preparation stage, there must be someone in the club to help the young players understand this.
"When important games come, there are always many possibilities. I think it's crucial to give young players a chance to overcome their timidity. The more afraid you are, the more likely you are to be passive on the court.
"Moreover, today's young players don't think too much when playing football, which is better. They can use their talents to express themselves freely without restraint. For example, Yamal, his playing style is very relaxed and comfortable, just like playing football in the park with friends. You know, this kind of casual playing style is actually good, because sometimes thinking too much is not good, and once you think too much and calculate too carefully, it will make you perform abnormally.
" In addition, young players must learn to deal with pressure appropriately and go all out for the team and teammates. Communication between teammates is also very important, and their youthful advantage makes it easier to establish a tacit understanding with each other and understand each other like friends.
