Starting with Real Madrid Chapter 16

"In English football, there is a joke circulating."

Before the afternoon training session, Gao Shen spoke for the first time as the head coach.

The players in front of him have different expressions, some are casual, some are dismissive, some are listening carefully...

But he didn't care, and continued the first lecture he had carefully prepared.

"In the 1995-1996 season, in the first round of the Premier League, after Manchester United lost 3-1 to Aston Villa, football legend Alan Hansen shouted to Ferguson on a TV show, he said, relying on a group of children, You can't win anything!"

This is indeed a story familiar to fans in English football, and everyone who has played in the Premier League has heard of it.

"Three years later, Ferguson took this group of children and won the Triple Crown, and Alan Hansen's words became a joke."

Behind the high side, Maqueda's face became quite ugly, and the other members of the coaching staff also had strange expressions.

Because of this, Maqueda also said to Gao Shen in the office just now.

They can understand now that this rookie head coach is the one who must be reported. Not only must he report it on the spot, but he also has to find an opportunity to take it out afterwards. It's too careful!

Don't mess with this kind of person in the future!

"Just now, someone said the same thing to me, and he also felt that I was a child, with a group of children, I can't win anything, and even the situation I'm facing now is even worse, because Ferguson was a famous coach back then, and I was just a A fledgling rookie, that group of Manchester United kids, later all became the top stars in the Premier League and even Europe."

"And, in terms of time, I'm not as rich as Ferguson. He can build a triple crown in three years, but I may only have three days left. The weekend derby game can decide my fate."

Everyone looked at him silently, with all kinds of eyes in their eyes, many of which were full of disdain and ridicule, and some were quite complicated.

"But I personally think so. In the 1995-96 season, Ferguson is not sure, these players will bring him the triple crown in the future, we are just looking at this thing from the perspective of hindsight, just Seems like right now, I don't know what's going to happen over the weekend, do I?"

Although the cultural lessons of players are generally poor, Gao Shen said it very straightforwardly, and the logic can still be heard clearly.

"What I learned from this incident with Ferguson and Alan Hansen is not the joke of Ferguson's future Triple Crown and Alan Hansen, but that Ferguson bravely did what he thought was right, and what he should have done. things, even when he faced numerous doubts and an unpredictable future."

"Ferguson is my most respected head coach. I can't compare with him, but I am willing to learn his attitude, so I will continue to do what I think is right and what I should do. As for the result, the outcome of the weekend, whether I will be dismissed or not, it will be left to time to decide."

In the queue, Raul, Beckham, Zidane and Woodgate, as well as several teenagers who were promoted from the second team, all had exchanges with Gao Shen, and they all knew what Gao Shen was thinking. Hearing his heartfelt words at this moment, the feeling is obviously deeper than others.

Especially for the few promoted teenagers, they felt that they were the group of children in Gao Shen's mouth, and Gao Shen was blocking the overwhelming doubts for them.

It moved them.

The training session in the afternoon was a closed training session with no outsiders present.

When assistant coach Maqueda announced the team's roster, everyone was stunned.

Not only because there were several young players in the yellow vests representing the main force, but also because Carlos and Ronaldo were not even included in the red vests.

What does it mean?

On that day, everyone saw that Carlos was in full view of the public, intimidating and threatening Gao Shen, and Ronaldo has always been the vanguard against Gao Shen, and they are also the leading brothers of the Brazilian gang, and now Gao Shen is directly attacking them, his intention is obvious. .

After listening to the list, both Ronaldo and Carlos were inexhaustibly trying to find a profound theory, but they were stopped by their teammates, and Fernando Lucas stood in front of Gao Shen, separating the two superstars.

After the two quarreled for a while, they uttered a harsh word and left angrily.

"I'll wait to see how you end!"

"You're finished, you won't be able to stay over the weekend!"

Gao Shen was mentally prepared for such a situation, and he didn't care. Anyway, for him, it was all planned, so he immediately signaled to warm up and prepare for team training.

During the warm-up time, Gao Shen put together a group of yellow vests, Lucas sent a small tactical blackboard, and Gao Shen drew his own position map on the small blackboard, a four-two-three formation.

He clearly told the players that this was only the first training session, and it was mainly about running in. At the same time, he also welcomed every player to give feedback on his own opinions and suggestions in a timely manner according to his own characteristics and situation.

In this four-two-three formation, balance is the main thing, with high center Negredo in front, and Raul on the left closer to the center, cruising around him, which is also Raul's strength, while Zidane is He is the core attacking midfielder and takes charge of the overall situation. Beckham is responsible for long passes and wing crosses on the right.

Gravesson is not the reckless man in many impressions. On the contrary, he is both offensive and defensive. He is the core player in Everton. Gao Shen used him and De La Reid to partner with a double midfielder. .

The full-backs are no longer blindly inserted in the attack as before. The high-level requirements can only go up one at a time, and they cannot ignore the back like Carlos and Cicinho. After they are inserted, they must ensure that they return to their positions as soon as possible.

As for the two central defenders, Woodgate is in charge of rushing, and Elgra is in charge of delaying. This is mainly because Elgra is not taking advantage of his body, and he was in the season when he became famous in Real Madrid. Central defender.

Gao Shen especially emphasized one point, that is, keeping the overall formation compact and orderly.

He divided the court into several different areas. When defending, each player must be able to return to his own area.

Everyone can see that at this stage, Gao Shen values ​​defense more.

It's also sensible, because a good defense can put yourself in an invincible position first.

With Real Madrid's attacking firepower, as long as they can defend, they will have a chance to attack.

Time is too short.

Although Gao Shen has been carefully prepared, the players can basically understand what he means, and are willing to try to accept his tactical thinking, but there are still many problems in implementation.

Don't look at the attacking combination of Robinho, Soldado, Baptista and Cassano on the opposite side, but the individual abilities of these players are quite good, coupled with Guti behind him who is responsible for delivering artillery shells , Cicinho was also quite active on the right, and the players were all holding back their energy. The red vests had an overwhelming advantage from the beginning, and took turns to attack the yellow vests violently.

The Yellow Vests still haven't mastered the advanced tactics in place and lacks tacit understanding. Once they are impacted, they will be in a hurry and make many mistakes. The Red Vests frequently seize the opportunity to create dangerous situations.

This is also deeply expected.

According to the situation on the field, combined with Benitez's tactical thinking, and according to the characteristics of the players, he kept making fine-tuning, mainly some adjustments of the position on the field.

But it's not without its bright spots.

Robinho played quite eye-catching at the beginning, but soon died under the imprisonment of Abeloa.

You know, a year later, Abeloa is the man who can freeze Messi.

Felipe Luis on the left did not give up too much. After the chaos at the beginning, he quickly adapted to the rhythm of the team game. Facing Cassano, he was also very stable, and he did not give too much to the Italians. opportunity.

As for Soldado and Baptista, apart from scoring a goal shortly after the opening, they were also contained at other times.

From a high-level perspective, Real Madrid's defense has begun to have layers.

Whether it is Soldado or Baptista, or Robinho and Cassano, after receiving the ball, let alone facing the goal, they often have to face two lines of defense.

For example, Baptista once got the ball in the middle, and when he wanted to rush forward, he found that Gravesson and De La Reid were flanking from left to right, chasing him all the way, and then passing it to Soldado, But the situation of the Spanish teenager was not easy, Woodgate was beside him, and there was an Elgra behind him.

If the defense has layers, it will be difficult for the opponent's offensive player to break the goal.

This is also an advantage of the 423 formation.

But it's not safe, because Atletico Madrid owns Torres.

The speed and explosiveness of this new golden boy in Spain is very strong. The frontal impact ability of UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is almost unmatched by anyone in the current Real Madrid team, so whether he can stop Torres depends on the game. verified in .

Whether the tactics will work or not, the players who execute them know best in their hearts.

Raul, Zidane, Beckham and others had already noticed the uniqueness of this tactical framework, which was completely different from Real Madrid's tactics in the past, and put more emphasis on the whole, especially the formation. Four lines of compactness.

Not long after the game was played, the players realized the cleverness of this tactic.

But players, especially superstars such as Raul, are suspicious. How can a rookie like Gao Shen have such a brilliant tactical concept and mature framework?

They quickly thought of Carlo.

423 formation, Carlo has also tried it before, but because of the superstar, and the results are not satisfactory, Carlo had to give up this style of play, but if he is in this period, according to Real Madrid's The problem is that it is not completely impossible to derive a new set of four-two-three-one play.

This can also explain clearly why Gao Shen is such a mature tactical system when he can make a shot.

Obviously, the superstars guessed wrong, but they were also more attentive in their execution on the court.

Compared with the rookie, they have more trust in Carlo.

And this also made the yellow vest team's defense gradually stabilized and began to exert force on the offensive end.

Gao Shen didn't know that the players would be wrong, and he didn't care, because the yellow vest team's defense became more and more stable, which made him happier, and clearly felt the impact of this advanced technical and tactical concept.

If you give him a little more time, it'll be fine if you slowly get used to it.
