Volume 1 Portuguese Game Players Chapter 45 Gaining Great Opinions
"We all know that high-position pressing is to launch a man-to-man press on the spot, causing the opponent to make mistakes and creating opportunities to get the ball. The short pass counterattack is to try to get the ball directly through the encirclement of numbers."
Seeing that the opponent directly explained the essence of short pass counterattack, Simon King was stunned for a moment and became curious about Armando's identity.
"You know about counterattack short passes?"
Armando ignored him and just said: "Your style of play should be a combination of the two. You seem to be tempting your opponent to play according to the passing method you envisioned. I can say that Right?"
Simon King was surprised: "It's just a game, and you can tell?"
Armando said: "Just say...right?"
Simon King said: "Yes, it is indeed the case! I even mixed the tactical thinking of setting up a bus with the two."
Armando said: "Putting a bus? Setting a bus is to take the initiative to let the opponent control the ball, thereby inducing the opponent to move forward. This is actually a clever way of playing."
Simon Jindao: "Yes, this is an amazing tactic. So, I changed the counterattack short pass to containment, and left a passing line for the opponent. Then, I used high pressure He uses man-to-man logic to lurk in the opponent's passing route, trying to catch the opponent's mistakes and form a counterattack on the spot."
Armando nodded approvingly and said: "So, the core of your tactical thinking is to control the opponent in the frontcourt so that all their actions are completed according to your vision?"
"Yes. It's a pity that my style of play is not mature enough, so I was almost demoted by you."
"Haha... you are wrong."
Having said this, Armando pulled up the tactical blackboard and drew Simon King's tactics on it.
Then he said seriously: "It's not that your playing style is immature. In my opinion, your playing style is very mature. Not only do you make up for the lack of counterattack ability in reverse passes and short attacks, but you can also control the game in the frontcourt, which is very good." Awesome idea.”
"But...but you still cracked it easily!"
Simon King felt that the person in front of him was too clever, and his title had changed from "you" to "you".
"Have I cracked it? Haha... Regardless of whether it is or not, my suggestion is exactly related to this."
"Please tell me!"
Simon Jin broke into a cold sweat when he heard this, and his hands clenched into fists.
"You may not realize that from tactical thinking to tactical execution, you actually need to design a tactical system."
"Tactical system? I think I have one, right?"
Simon King feels that he has a tactical system. For example, in this game, he used controlling the opponent's full-backs as his main method.
Armando shook his head and continued: "You just have a tactic, but that is not a system. The real system should be like this."
After that, he pointed to the position of the front midfielder on the blackboard and said: "Most teams will have two to three star players. Some of these people are responsible for organizing the game, and some are responsible for ending the game. You can think of them as Variables in the game!”
Simon Jin stopped talking, his brain was working rapidly, and he nodded affirmatively.
Armando continued: "Similarly, in addition to these variables, there are six or seven or seven or eight constant players. For example, most defensive midfielders, their on-field responsibilities, game methods, and kicking methods are actually almost the same."
"The so-called tactical system should have a set of fixed methods for variables. At the same time, there should also be a set of unfixed methods for constants."
"Fixed...unfixed...constants...variables..."
Simon Jin fell into deep thought as he followed the other party's words.
Images of the games of the most outstanding coaches of our time flashed through his mind.
"Guardiola's games always seem to be in possession of the ball, but...but why can't I recall that he scored two goals in the same way?"
"What about Mourinho? Yes...Mourinho's goals have heavy traces of labeling...No, no, no, no, he is not labeling. That's because he is playing bus. That's why.
It seems the scoring methods are the same."
The more Ximen Jin thought about it, the more he became obsessed with it. The more he thought about it, the tighter his brows became. For a moment, he seemed to be in trance.
After a long time, he slapped his forehead heavily and felt enlightened. He said excitedly: "Dear Mr. Armando, thank you for teaching me. I seem to understand a little bit."
"Tell me, young man."
"The so-called variables refer to the opponent's player, whose personal ability is very strong. Therefore, for a player like this, we should restrict him instead of using him. Otherwise, my tactics will change every game, which will
As a result, the team’s style of play is rusty!”
Armando nodded, indicating for him to continue.
"The constants refer to those players with average technical levels. On the one hand, they have a large number of players, and on the other hand, it is difficult for them to play a decisive role in the game."
"So it is these people who we should really use. And only by using them as targets, my tactics will not stick to one method, and it will not be like this game with you.
Easy to see through!”
Armando slapped the table with satisfaction, jumped up and pointed at him and said: "Well said! You are indeed a genius. Then let me ask you again, why does targeting constants not make the team's style unfamiliar?"
"It's very simple! Because the constant playing methods are basically the same, I just need to make some changes to the players, and they will naturally not feel unfamiliar."
"Completely correct!"
Armando seemed to be even more excited than Simon King. He happily held Simon King's shoulders with both hands and said, "I think now is the time to tell you why I can easily see through your style of play."
Simon King's eyes were expectant and unblinking.
"My full name is Armando Evangelista. The person who created the theory of short pass counterattack is my father!"
"ah?"
Simon King didn't expect this answer at all, and he was completely speechless.
Just listen to Almankin continue: "My father, like you, has never played professional football. So his coaching career only lasted five short games."
"But...but!"
Having said this, Armando perked up and his expression became very firm, saying: "But I believe his tactical thinking is absolutely correct!"
"Of course it is correct and very advanced!"
Ximen Qing was also affected by the other party and spoke in a much heavier tone.
"Yes! He is definitely right! Originally, I wanted to rely on my own ability to clear his name! But I couldn't do it because although his ideas are not wrong, his tactics are actually flawed."
"However, through today's game, I found that you have made up for these shortcomings, so I am very happy, I am very happy."
Simon King immediately understood the reason why the other party taught him, and he was extremely grateful to Armando's father.
Chapter completed!
