Rebirth 1994: Football Situation

Chapter 311 The Old Revolution Meets New Problems
If it wasn't for the team's three-game tie, Pei Wei really wanted to laugh out loud now—the luck of these "bricks" has really declined a bit, and almost all of them have become crow mouths on the same level as Bailey , to praise who is unlucky-the degree of unluckyness is comparable to that of the famous Yao Hei of later generations and a certain Kang who almost didn't take a bath for a year. In fact, their arguments are still well-founded, but unfortunately the final result is not as they said. I thought the same, but after losing my mentality and starting to talk nonsense, I became the laughing stock of everyone, which is really sad.

If Yun Jiatianyu's grades are good now, Pei Wei will definitely use his "venomous tongue" to make a good laugh at this group of "bricks" who are downwind. Sao would never hesitate to let these guys know not to talk too much—but he is really not in the mood right now.

It started with three consecutive draws and ranked eighth in points. It may be a passable result for an ordinary mid-range team, but this result is undoubtedly a disgrace for a club that has won two consecutive championships, especially In the absence of major changes in personnel, one of the main players has not left and two new aids have been added.

There have been some voices of dissatisfaction among Yunjia fans. Fortunately, the club has always had good interactions with the two largest fan groups, so the fans will not make any excessive moves now, but if they lose or lose, they will It is possible to lose some fans.

Pei Wei doesn't care too much about this aspect. Fans also have to be mentally prepared to suffer failure. Like many amateur teams in Europe, they have their own loyal fan groups, which are precious wealth accumulated over time. In this regard, Chinese fans there's still a long way to go.

What reassures him is that although the players have tied for three consecutive games, there is no uneasy reaction from the players. In these three games, Yunjiatianyu played not badly, and the players also played at their normal level. These three opponents are relatively strong. Sichuan is now ranked first in the standings, BJ is definitely a traditional strong team, and Jilin is currently ranked in the top four. It is normal to win or lose.

**************************************
"Now we are going to face a problem formally." Benitez's complexion has been worse recently than before, and it seems that the three consecutive draws have also put him under a lot of pressure: "That is all our opponents now They are becoming more and more used to using dense defense against us - every game we have an absolute advantage in possession time and number of shots, but we can't score as many goals as we attack."

"I don't understand." Pei Wei asked suspiciously: "Is this the first time we have encountered this problem? Impossible."

"Although we have been one of the most powerful teams in the league in the past two seasons, our opponents generally have these mentalities-teams like Dalian Shanghai BJ regard us as the biggest opponents to win the championship, no matter They are not willing to lose to us in terms of score or on the scene, and they can often score quite high scores. However, mid-range teams like Sichuan, Shandong, Jilin, and Chongqing regard us as challenges and opponents who can score points. As for those downstream teams As a team, even if we want to defend, it is difficult to defend our offense. In this way, we are invincible and have a high winning percentage... But now it is different. After two consecutive years of league championships and last year's double crown, In other words, after two years of losses from us, these teams have learned to behave, knowing that playing against us can only lead to a dead end, so they would rather make the scene ugly than minimize our offensive threat, and ours There are too many offensive defenders on the defensive line, not to mention the two full-backs, Lucio is always restless in the backcourt, and the rest, whether it is Zhu Guosheng or Zhou Nan, always have to face the opponent's counterattack , Once the opponent passes through the midfield quickly and avoids our two midfielders with strong interception ability, our defense will undergo great consideration, which is why we have been conceding goals every game recently."

"Well, that's a problem." Pei Wei thought about it carefully, and it's true. In the past few seasons, Yunjiatianyu has not encountered such a situation that almost all teams put iron buckets whenever they encounter Yunjiatianyu. In terms of the team situation, basically every team dared to go head-to-head with Yunjiatianyu, and Yunjiatianyu played the most difficult games against the iron bucket team. For example, in the season when he lost the league championship, Yunjiatianyu In the most crucial game, Jia Tianyu played the away game against Dalian Dongfang. Facing Dalian Dongfang's iron barrel formation regardless of the dignity of the strong, Yun Jiatianyu, who had an absolute advantage in the end, was defeated by the opponent. Zero draw, lost two crucial points.

"Then I can't help with this matter. After all, I can't make the players perform better." Pei Wei sighed: "Do you have any good ideas?"

Benitez smiled wryly and shook his head: "In terms of offense, we have no problems now. We can create many good opportunities in every game. Although we still lack the ability to seize opportunities, there is nothing we can do about it." .To be honest, if Hao Dong and Nie Fei are still here, we don't need to worry about these things at all."

Pei Wei is silent, Hao Dong's scoring ability is unquestionable, and Nie Fei's breakthrough ability is also a good way to tear apart the opponent's iron barrel. After all, there are not many players with strong breakthrough ability in the Yunjiatianyu team, and Ljungberg is more. Most of them are active on the wing. Deco's strength lies in organization. He is not the best at taking the ball and breaking through. Overall, for Hao Dong and Niefei personally, going out is a good way to improve their abilities, and they have indeed done a good job, which fully proves that staying in Yunjiatianyu can no longer improve their level. up.

Pei Wei firmly believed that he was right to send them out, but the problem he faced now was that Yunjiatianyu's offensive efficiency was not high enough.

"The old revolution has encountered new problems..." Pei Wei sighed: "Then is there any way to prevent the opponent from counterattacking quickly?"

"I already have some ideas." Benitez nodded: "I will try a new defensive combination in the weekend league and see how it works."

**************************************
Out of curiosity about Benitez's method, in the next few days of training, Pei Wei went to the training ground to watch the training more often. After a few days of observation, Pei Wei also saw some signs.

"Are you going to let Zheng Zhi play as a central defender?" Pei Wei asked Benitez in private after a training session.

"To be precise, it's a scavenger." Benitez replied with a smile.

"Scavenger?" Pei Wei asked in surprise, then nodded thoughtfully: "Well, his stability and physical fitness are really suitable for this position, but he has never played this position before. ,Is it really possible?"

"Believe me, he may be a little uncomfortable at the beginning, but he is indeed one of the most comprehensive players I have ever seen..." Benitez said affirmatively: "He can play in all positions in the midfield. And he can perform quite well, but I think his most suitable position is to become an all-round midfielder who can attack and defend well like Ballack and Deco, and now he will not play in this position. Too much. Playing as a sweeper helps him gain experience and I'm sure he won't let us down. And when we have a solid player at the back, I think we'll concede a lot less goals."

"I hope so, but we seem to be a bit crowded at the central defender..." Pei Wei said with a smile.

Originally, Yunjia Tianyu had four central defenders, but among the four defenders, Lucio likes to go forward and assist. His skills and speed are not inferior to some forwards at all, but his defense seems a little impulsive. Zhu Guosheng and Zhou Nan The same, a typical Chinese defender, tall, strong defensive ability, excellent header, fierce fighting, but a little slow turning, easy to be hit behind by the opponent, and although Tang Yong is fast, strong defensive moves, fierce fighting, but he is after all Only a little over 1.7 meters tall, he is at a disadvantage in terms of headers. Now that Zheng Zhi is added, it does seem that the number of central defenders is a bit crowded, but it also increases the diversification of the defense.

With a player like Zheng Zhi who is stable, not slower than ordinary forwards, and has relatively good physical fitness as the last line of defense, at least it will be much easier for others to step forward and assist, as long as he can delay the opponent's attack for a while Then the two defensive midfielders can return to the defense immediately, so that the threat of the opponent's counterattack will be greatly reduced.

Of course, this is just an idea on paper, and whether it works in practice has to be proven on the field.

However, after Pei Wei figured it out, he seemed to be much more confident than Benitez. After all, in the Asian Cup in 04, the then head coach of the Chinese national team, the Dutchman Arihan, used Zheng Zhida As a central defender, the effect is really good. In that Asian Cup, the defense line of the Chinese team can be said to be quite solid.

**************************************
In the past few days of training, he has been arranged by the coach to play the scavenger. It is absolutely false to say that Zheng Zhi is not nervous-after all, everyone knows that this position not only requires skills, but more importantly, defensive experience.

What is a scavenger?It is the last line of defense in front of the goalkeeper. It is a position where the opponent will counterattack at any time. The most important thing to play in this position is not to destroy the opponent's attack at the first time, but to slow down the opponent's attack speed and win back for teammates. Timing, timing, positioning, etc. must be very accurate - these are all things that require experience.

As for whether he can complete this task well, Zheng Zhi really has no idea.

PS: I came back late and sent it a bit late, so don't blame it.

If I can come back at noon tomorrow and I have more time, I will post two chapters. (To be continued, if you want to know what happens next, please visit www.CMFU.COM, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
