Chapter 94 Secret Weapon
He wants to win.

He didn't care too much about losing to Xu Genbao last year, because he defeated Xu Genbao six years ago, and Xu Genbao had stayed in Yunjia Tianyu Football Academy and was familiar with everything about them. Losing to Xu Genbao was not a shame, but against Chi Shangbing, he didn't want to lose again.

But it has never been an easy task to win against Chi Shangbing and the team he led, and he didn't have enough time to collect data. There were only two short days before the end of the last game. It was basically impossible to find out the opponent's shortcomings and flaws within two days.

Fortunately, in last year's game, Ding Yu had watched the match between Dalian Oriental Football School and Shanghai Chongming Island Football School on the spot, and he also had a certain understanding of some of the Dalian team's outstanding players last year.

"Dong Fanghong, center forward, 1.8 meters tall, the second tallest player in the 89-year-old echelon in China, has excellent jumping, excellent header, not slow speed, poor ball control ability, and average shooting ability."

"Fan Pengfei, a former member of the Bayi Youth Team. After the disbandment of the Bayi Youth Team, he was favored by Dalian Football School. He is a striker. He is 1.6 meters tall. He has fast speed, excellent breakthrough and dribbling ability, poor endurance and confrontation ability, and has a long-range shot. He has a very good sense of the ball."

"Jiang Qi, from Jiangxi, plays a defensive midfielder position, has plenty of stamina, strong running ability, and fierce moves. Last year, he had two records of shoveling opponents off the field, including shoveling the core of the Shanghai organization Xu Shaochuan in the final and shoveling the core of BJ's midfielder Liu Zhan in the quarter-finals. An extremely effective killing machine (Note, if Dai Guangming plays, you need to be careful)."

"Zhang Han, a midfielder, is a player poached from Guangdong by the Dalian Oriental Football School two years ago. He has both offensive and defensive skills and excellent physical fitness. He has an excellent physique that players from the southern faction generally do not have. His organizational skills are weak, but his ability to jump in suddenly is relatively strong. During the game, it is necessary to prevent his back row from suddenly jumping in."

"Pan Jun, right midfielder, accurate mid-length pass and 45-degree diagonal pass, fast speed, average ball control ability, weak physical fitness, average defensive ability."

"Chen Yongjun, a left midfielder, was poached by Dalian Dongfang Football School after being eliminated by our school this summer. He quickly became the main left midfielder. There is no problem with his personal ability. Our school gave up on him for other reasons."

"Long Xing, from Qinghai, left back, tall, with excellent defensive ability, excellent personal confrontation ability, abundant physical fitness, accurate long pass, average foot skills, poor assist ability."

"Wang Hang, a right back, is not tall but relatively strong, flexible in movement, likes assists, and has plenty of stamina."

"Niu Ren, central defender, 1.8 meters tall, typical northern defender, excellent header, excellent jumping, not stable."

"Zhang Jian, who used to be the captain of Meixian Football School, was poached by Dalian Oriental Football School two years ago. He is a central defender, not tall, with accurate positioning, a good sense of position, solid basic skills, and occasionally assists."

"Fan Tong (Khan, such a name), a goalkeeper, is 1.8 meters tall and has long arms. He likes to attack and intercept crosses. He is good at throwing high-altitude balls. He has a large control range and is not very flexible. There is no good way to deal with single-handed balls."

"This is their main lineup." Coach Zhao looked at this information and said to Ding Yu: "In the first few games, it is basically certain that this is their main lineup. This kind of game is a good opportunity to train players. Any team can only focus on players. Because the purpose of the echelon is not to achieve results, but to produce good players, so it is impossible to hide the main force. I am basically sure that these eleven people are their main force."

"In the past few years, Dalian has also recruited a lot of talents from all over the country." Ding Yu looked at the information and said lightly: "Among the eleven main players, six are not local players from Dalian. From this point of view, they are very similar to us."

"The whole world must be integrated, let alone Chinese football." Coach Zhao made a rare joke: "Which club still only relies on local players now? Just kidding, as long as it is a good player, who is not rushing to get it? But we should be careful. The foreign players who can play the main force in Dalian will definitely not be inferior in strength."

"Look at what you said." Ding Yu laughed loudly: "Who can be the main force in our Yunjia echelon, how bad is the strength!"

"I beg you, don't be so optimistic, okay?" Coach Zhao smiled wryly: "We are under a lot of pressure this year. Last year we were at the bottom of the five echelons. If we don't win the championship this year, the future of the entire team may be affected."

"I want to win more than you, but I can't show any impatience in front of the players." Ding Yu said lightly. Compared with six years ago, he seemed much more mature: "The players are fearless, because last year's defeat was not because of their lack of strength. If I show impatience in front of them, then they will start to doubt whether they are incapable of defeating their opponents... So I must remain optimistic. If I don't even have the confidence to win, then why should the players win?"

"You're right... But our opponents are indeed very strong. Like our players, they are also carefully selected from across the country. Although they may not be as good as our players in terms of development potential, at least at this stage, their players in every position may be comparable to our players, and the level of tacit cooperation is no worse than ours... If it's just this, there is nothing to be afraid of. The big deal is to confront them head-on. We have at least a [-]% chance of winning. In fact, our biggest enemy is their head coach Chi Shangbing .” Coach Zhao was still a little worried.

Hearing Chi Shangbing's name, Ding Yu's eyes flashed brightly, but he didn't say any bold words. He just said lightly: "Chi Shangbing is also a human being. Although his rich experience is unmatched by domestic coaches, he is old and has been away from the front line for a long time. He will not improve in the past six years, but I... have been improving. I have the confidence to defeat him. What I need now is your help. Help me find their offensive focus. The defense does not need to be searched. The overall defense starts from the midfield. Steady and steady, he's always been that way, steady enough, but also rigid enough."

"Judging from the characteristics of the players, their midfield is not a diamond-shaped position, but a shallow-saucer-shaped position." Coach Zhao didn't talk nonsense: "Their two central midfielders are more defensive than offensive. They are good at midfield scheduling rather than charging.

"That Fan Pengfei has relatively strong personal ability, let Hu Gandang deal with him." Ding Yu said: "Anyway, they don't have a fixed midfielder, and the other defenders defend in areas and pay attention to filling their positions. Most of their offense is based on overall offense, and there is no need to mark people."

"Pay attention to Jiang Qi." Coach Zhao reminded him: "This kid is simply an ace killer, remind Dai Guangming to be careful."

"That kid is playing football and is good at protecting himself. I feel relieved for him, but it is true to remind him." Ding Yu said with a smile, "As long as he is mentally prepared, he will be fine. He is a bird with nine heads in the sky and a Hubei guy underground."

Coach Zhao nodded: "In terms of offense...Dalian's defense has always been very good, and this echelon is no exception. The four defenders have their own characteristics, a tall central defender, a shorter and accurate sweeper, a full-back with excellent defensive ability, and a full-back with excellent assist ability...a defensive line with Dalian characteristics."

"On the left, use the surrounding attack to suppress the opponent's assists, and on the right, use Zhang Yi's accurate long pass to attract the tall full-back. As long as he leaves his position, Zhang Yi will make him suffer. In the middle..." Ding Yu closed his eyes, and said dreamily: "Zhong Tao can attract the attention of the short scavenger. Long must win, deal with the tall man."

"Can Long Bisheng handle him? Chi Shangbing will definitely notice his poor performance in the competition last year." Coach Zhao said.

"I want him to think like this." A smile appeared on the corner of Ding Yu's mouth: "Otherwise, why would I ask him to only use headers as much as possible in the game? It's just waiting for the strong teams like Shanghai, Dalian and Shandong...Dalian met us at this time, so they are unlucky. National Day is going to be terrible... When the strength of other players is comparable, Long Bisheng's sudden stronger strength will definitely become the biggest weight to reverse the whole situation!"

"It turns out that you've been thinking like this all along, thanks to the fact that you can bear it until now..." Coach Zhao shook his head: "But aren't you afraid of self-defeating? Long Bisheng finally got used to only using headers like before, and you suddenly switched back. There is no time to adapt."

"I'll give him time, and I'll allow him to perform another clumsy first half." Ding Yu gritted his teeth and said, "But I believe this big fool, he reacts slowly, and his brain is not as flexible as others, but he has one advantage, that is, he resolutely executes orders...I believe he can do it."

He suddenly laughed happily: "He is my biggest secret weapon in this competition!"
