1045. Chapter 1045 Do your best, obey the destiny
“Good, great!”
Yang Huan was in the stands and saw Ibrahimovic scoring the first-time goal, he clenched his fists and shouted excitedly.
This goal should be considered a complete vent of the team's depression of not winning five games in the past warm-up matches?
In the stands at the Tianjin Water Drop Stadium, the fans of Jingcheng Guoen were also celebrating and singing the team song of Jingcheng Guoen.
But Delta fans are not to be outdone. This is their home court, so they are booing and scolding, and all the ones that should come.
Fang Wei, who was sitting next to Yang Huan, shook his head helplessly, "Domestic fans are so unfriendly to the visiting team."
But when Young Master Huan heard this, he laughed directly.
"If this is too friendly to the visiting fans, is football still interesting?"
Fang Wei was stunned, but that was true.
The reason why professional football is interesting and charming is even called a war without gunpowder is ultimately due to the kind of confrontation between us and us.
If this is the stadium, the fans are peaceful, hello, everyone, then professional football is really boring.
"Swearing, throwing things, or even interfering with players on the stadium is also common in European football, and it is normal. There must be such an atmosphere in the football field, but there must be a standard."
Fang Wei understood what Young Master Huan meant.
It’s like fans can boo or even scold the visiting team players in the stands, but they cannot attack personally or racially discriminate.
This is the bottom line. Once discovered, the club must pay attention to it or even punish it.
Also, it is very important that the hostile atmosphere on the court cannot be brought outside the court.
For the time being, domestic professional football has just started, especially in recent years, the Chinese Super League has recovered and young players have poured into the stadium. The quality of fans still needs to be strengthened by clubs and league managers.
“Pochettino is still very skilled!”
Yang Huan has watched the game a lot now, and gradually figured out some tricks.
"Ibrahimovic suppressed two centre-backs on the opponent, and one person grabbed the attention of at least two players. Xavi Alonso, who was placed in the back midfield, Terry and Rettenron, all three players were basically in the back line."
Speaking of this, Yang Huan smiled slightly and said it was the defense line, but in fact, when Jingcheng Guoen pushed the entire midfield and frontcourt to the opponent's 30-meter zone, the positions of these three players had already advanced near the center line.
Terry and Rettenron are in the back position. Even when Delta striker Montero retreats, they rarely cross the center line. This should be Pochettino's key arrangement, and Terry also reminds Rettenron at all times.
This made Yang Huan happy.
Lei Tenglong is a powerful player who deserves special cultivation. He should be able to learn a lot next to Terry.
The same situation is Park Cheng. In this game, he partnered with Xavi Alonso with two midfielders. If he could learn something from the Spanish midfielder, it would be of great benefit to his future development.
However, although he is a midfielder, Park Cheng's position is very high and actively advances to participate in the frontcourt offense.
Xavi Alonso played a single midfielder, which was indeed a bit risky, after all, the Spaniard was quite old.
But it depends on the situation. It’s like Barcelona and Busquets are also playing single-middle midfielder. Is there any problem?
There is also Southampton, where Tony Cross is also a single midfielder, and sometimes Kovacic is used to play, so there is no problem.
The key is control.
If the frontcourt can be controlled, a single midfielder is not a problem.
The team collectively pressed, playing single midfielder and two full-backs actively participated in the frontcourt offense. Pochettino's tactics were indeed very radical, adventurous, but very interesting.
Overall, he is very consistent with Southampton's current tactics.
If you look at the ball carefully, it is not difficult to find that the iron triangle positions of the backcourt of Xavi Alonso, Terry and Rettenron basically move left and right along the midfield line of the court according to the position of the ball.
Terry and Harvey Alonso did a very good job, and as soon as Rettenron got away, Terry and Harvey Alonso immediately called him back.
The reason is very simple, they are preventing their opponent from attacking quickly.
Once the opponent breaks through the frontcourt control, these three players can quickly intercept and return to defense as soon as possible.
Therefore, the movement of these three players, as well as the control and prediction of the game situation, are very important.
Only Terry and Xavi Alonso can make Pochettino implement this tactic with such confidence. If it were a domestic player, he would probably not be sure of this.
The advantage of Pochettino using such a set of tactics lies in the attack.
In the past, the Guoen team in Manzano's past had the concept of defense, first setting up defense, then planning an offense, and in terms of offense, Manzano's focus was on the wing and crossing.
But Pochettino pays attention to control, so he doesn't like to pass.
After suppressing the two centre-backs of the opponent with Ibrahimovic in the frontcourt, the personal abilities of the three players behind Zhang Xizhe, Wu Lei and Chen Zhizhao are all quite good in domestic players.
Pochettino also gave them enough trust. Three players surrounded Ibrahimovic, often crossing positions, using running and taking balls to mobilize the opponents around and attract the attention of the defense.
In addition, Park Cheng was supporting him behind him, Jiang Zhipeng and Zhang Chengdong actively stepped in, attacking and supporting the attack on both sides. Guoen pressed seven players in one breath in the frontcourt. This was enough to shock the opponent.
As the number of people increases and the division of labor is clear, the offensive routines will be richer and opportunities will be created.
Another thing that can reflect Pochettino's characteristics is when you lose the ball and grab it.
Pochettino basically requires four players, Ibrahimovic, Zhang Xizhe, Wu Lei and Chen Zhizhao, to keep in front of the field and to restrain their opponents' midfield and backcourt so that they can launch a counterattack as soon as possible when regaining the ball.
But this does not mean that these four players have no contribution to defense.
On the contrary, they have a fixed defensive area and counter-robbery responsibility, which is the front line of team defense and counter-robbery.
It should be said that Pochettino's tactics are very clear, which is to suppress the opponent and control the ball.
In addition, the team's offense and defense conversion speed is very fast, and the physical consumption of players is probably very large. This is exactly the same as famous coaches such as Bielsa, Simeone, Klopp and Guardiola.
Today's professional football has no excellent physical fitness and cannot play high-pressing.
It should be said that Pochettino's concept is not uncommon in the European League, and many people do not find it strange.
But in the Chinese Super League, it seems quite new.
At least Yang Huan felt that after the opening, the Tianjin Delta team was very uncomfortable with Jingcheng Guoen's playing style.
"When Manzano was coaching, Guoen also promoted transmission control, but the operation speed was slower, so it was easier to adapt."
Bielsa, who was sitting on the other side of Yang Huan, also commented.
"But now, when the team runs at high speed, the opponent will feel uncomfortable."
At the end of the day, Bielsa couldn't help but smile.
Yang Huan understood that Manzano might not want to speed up, but due to the level limitations of foreign players, Manzano might not be able to play this style of play, so last season Guoen had only passed and controlled, but did not speed up.
When the pace is not fast enough, high-level pressing is not very threatening.
But now with Ibrahimovic and Terry and Xavi Alonso in the backcourt, the situation is very different.
Don't underestimate this.
To put it simply, the speed is faster and the players will have less time to think. They must make decisions in an instant, which requires very high demands on the players.
But if there are trustworthy teammates like Harvey Alonso and Terry behind you, and once you do not find the passing line when you receive the ball, it doesn't matter. If you pass it back behind you, Harvey Alonso and Terry are the safest support points behind you.
Because of this, Pochettino dared to speed up comprehensively.
"Why did Chen Zhizhao choose on the right?" Fang Wei asked a little puzzled.
After Chen Zhizhao joined the Beijing Guoen, although he occasionally performed outstandingly, overall, it was not satisfactory.
Many people have speculated before that Pochettino might use Zhang Chengdong to hit the right side, but unexpectedly it was Chen Zhizhao.
Bielsa smiled again, "This player is very good, has strong personal ability, excellent skills, and has good physical fitness, but his physical fitness is a little poor. There are many reasons why he performed poorly before, but Maolicio and I think that if he can play at the level, he will definitely be a sharp knife in the frontcourt of the team."
I believe no one will deny this.
But is it that easy?
"The tactics of Guoen's team did not give the two wing players too much freedom. They emphasized the advancement and downs along the wing. Because of the two full-backs and the major premise of ensuring the team's defense, wing players are easily stuck in an isolated situation."
Yang Huan understood.
With the personal abilities of professional players, if one-on-one, even Messi cannot guarantee the success rate, let alone domestic players.
Once you fall into double-team on the wing, Messi will have no tricks.
"Not only that, before, wing players had to bear a heavy pressure to return to defense, and often had to run back and forth between the front and back defense, which also made these wing players at a loss and exhausted."
"But now, their task is to be in the frontcourt without having to go back to defense. There are other players behind them watching. They just need to be responsible for the area they are in. This is very clear."
Bielsa's analysis is very clear and straightforward, and it should be considered more pertinent.
Although he pointed out the problems of Guoen's team before, anyone familiar with Guoen knows that this may not be the problem of head coach Manzano, and it also largely comes from the shortcomings in the team's lineup.
For example, two full-backs.
Now that high-level foreign players have been introduced and the lineup has been strengthened, Pochettino's cards must be better than Manzano, so the lineup is more relaxed.
But at this time, Yang Huan had a doubt.
"Lao Bei, do you think Chen Zhizhao can really do it?" Yang Huan asked with concern.
If this is really activated, Chen Zhizhao will definitely be at the national level. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the strongest in the country.
Bielsa looked at Master Huan, shook her head, "Try your best."
Yang Huan nodded, no one was sure of it.
Even as the head coach, who dares to say that he can use a certain player well?
"Mauricio is very concerned about him. He attaches great importance to it whether in training or in normal times. I hope he can play."
Bielsa obviously had no idea.
At least since the warm-up match and the competition, he still seems to be lukewarm.
If Bielsa's plan is based on Bielsa and he will have a few more time, at most, only a few games. If he really can't achieve any effect, he will only be a substitution.
After all, professional football is a cruel arena for life and death, not a warm training camp.
