Li Junyang is in his early forties this year, and his past resume is very impressive.

When he was young, he played for the local top league team in Chengdu, and was selected to the national team many times. He was also one of the main players in the crucial battle against Iraq in [-].

Missing the World Cup with the national team that year was the most painful experience in his life.After that, his state gradually declined. On the eve of the professionalization of domestic football, he chose to travel abroad.

Over the past few years, he feels that he has learned a lot of advanced football concepts.After returning to China, I wanted to contribute my meager strength to the top league team in my hometown, but it happened to coincide with the most turbulent years of domestic football before the second restructuring of the league.The team he wanted to join, which was the only A team in the western part of China, was "colonized" under some strange operations.Because of this, Li Junyang couldn't get in.

After being unemployed for a few years, the league completed its second restructuring, and the football world seemed to have cleared the clouds and ushered in a new Qingming.At this time, Li Junyang also got a new job opportunity - Rongcheng Liuniu, who was in the same city as the B team and is now a team in the first division, offered him an olive branch.

Before the restructuring, Rongcheng Liuniu also had a terrible experience, and was seriously injured because of this.

However, as one of the founding teams of the First Division after the second reorganization, the goal of Rongcheng Liuniu is to set sail anew, and use its results to wash away the stigma tainted by drifting with the tide.

So for this team, the most important goal now is to surpass and become the new pride of Chengdu football.However, this does not mean that Li Junyang and the team have no other ideas, such as the results in the FA Cup.

At this time, Li Junyang is having a short meeting with key players in the team in the head coach's office to discuss the knockout match of the FA Cup two weeks later.

"Not only is this team interesting, but the city of Linyuan is also very interesting." Li Junyang picked up the newspaper first, put his feet on the desk and read it carefully - this is the style he learned abroad, although It was a more formal discussion, but he did not ask for discipline. Not only was he very casual, but his assistant coaches and other participating coaches were also very casual.

It's just that the others were not as relaxed as he was, and sat upright in their seats, staring at Li Junyang intently.

"Infighting in the team... How old is Cheng Yue? Do teenage high school students dare to contradict the head coach? The media really likes to exaggerate!" Li Junyang smiled faintly after a brief silence.

"I don't care if it's true or not. Cheng Yue is indeed a good seed. Why did you..." the team's youth training coach whispered.

"You say that Cheng Yue has potential and I have no objection, but you should broaden your horizons and pay attention to more characteristics of players."

Li Junyang stood up, feeling a little agitated.

"Players from different places have different characteristics. For example, players from Spain have delicate feet, players from England have a rough style of play, and players from Germany have a tough will... In China, there are also differences between the southern faction and the northern faction. Although this view is a bit One-sided, but one side nurtures one side, and some things will indeed be engraved in the bones and passed down in one continuous line. And the players in Linyuan City..."

Li Junyang gritted his teeth, thinking of a guy who once made him respect, and then made him hate to the bone.

"Let's not talk about the past, let's just say that in the past ten years, have you seen any outstanding players from Linyuan City? Well... Lu Xiao can barely be counted as one. This player seems to be very important to Mu Weiping this year. Then what? Who else?"

"Song Fangjian..." someone reminded.

"Song Fangjian? Does that count? Look, if you hadn't mentioned this name, I would have almost forgotten his existence. Super substitute...although it is super, but no matter how you say it, it is just a substitute. One will be [-] soon How many years will he be able to be a super player?"

"Shudu Jinxing changed coaches this year, Song Fangjian seems to have played a lot more..." the person who spoke just now whispered.

Li Junyang coughed a few times unnaturally. At this time, the team hadn't made it to the Super League. He didn't pay much attention to some news. He didn't expect such a joke to be made.But he quickly adjusted his mood and said: "Well, Song Fangjian counts as one, but there are only two. What does this mean? Let's take Cheng Yue as an example. He was rejected by us. Why didn't he go to other teams for trial training? , but directly ran back to Linyuan City and hid in an amateur team? So, this shows that the players who came out of Linyuan City lack the perseverance to become top players! Whenever they suffer setbacks, they will take the initiative to give up! It was the same in the past, and it is the same now!"

"Affected by previous negative influences, the past few years have been a critical time for us to wash away our shame. I don't want this kind of atmosphere to appear in the team. I don't regret giving up Chengyue."

The participating coaches all smiled, giving up Cheng Yue was not a big deal to them.Cheng Yue has some talent, but in their view, it is not enough to tear his face for this player and Li Junyang.

"Okay, let's get back to the topic." After Li Junyang vented, he felt a lot better. "The main issue of this meeting is how we should deal with the opponent of the Royal Machinery Factory. Regardless of whether they are lax because of short-term results, this team has won the Zishi weekend after all, and we have to be careful when we face them."

Some coaches said: "Since Coach Li said that we should not be underestimated, how about we also play the main force?"

This proposal was quickly criticized by other coaches: "What are you kidding! Playing the main team to the amateur team? Are we not going to get the league results? If the main team is injured, do you dare to take responsibility?"

Li Junyang nodded: "It is impossible for the main force to be the main force, at least it is impossible to start with all the main force like Zishi weekend." Holding his chin and thinking for a while, Li Junyang said again: "This is the specific content we want to discuss. This FA Cup , I hope to use the old to bring the new, and give some players who usually don't have much chance to perform, but have a chance. There must be some hidden dangers in this way, so we must use a reasonable lineup to minimize the possible disadvantages of these hidden dangers .”

There is no objection to that.There are many players in the first team of Rongcheng Liuniu. Usually, many players can't even make the roster for the competition. At the same time, there are still many people waiting for the top spot in the youth team. This time the FA Cup faces amateur teams, just to give these people a performance Opportunity.

Seeing that no one objected, Li Junyang went on to say: "To eliminate hidden dangers, we must first determine what strategy they will adopt during the game, so..."

Li Junyang's solemnity caused cheerful laughter in the office.

"Coach Li, do you still need to think about it? A weak team is playing against a strong team, and this weak team is an amateur team with a roster of less than 25 people. Isn't the way they use defense and counterattack? Let's determine the players in this direction."

"That's right, isn't it just a broken iron bucket? Let's just find a few players and it's enough for the Royal Machinery Factory to drink a pot. I'll recommend Gu Wenbo first. That guy doesn't have much playing time, but he can fight, lead and shoot. A bench bandit. If the opponent wants to set up an iron bucket formation, we will make a breakthrough and let him go and keep it effective."

"No, they have Fang Xiaoqiang in the midfield, and it's not that easy to break through. We should play the cross. I recommend Jiang Wei. Although he is still in the youth team, he has height and is very suitable for heading the ball."

"But he only has height! And are you sure he can do the cross? Cheng Yue is not short, isn't Fang Xiaoqiang not short? When the two of them return to the penalty area, what effect can Jiang Wei have? So it is better to make a breakthrough. Only one Fang Xiaoqiang can defend well, as long as Fang Xiaoqiang passes, Cheng Yue is not very good at defending against short players, and we have plenty of opportunities to score goals."

"I only said to give Jiang Wei a spot. We have other tall players. And who said they only have defensive strength in the midfield? What if they don't go to Chengyue, but to Anji and Chen Yichuan? Although I didn't watch it The cooperation between the two, but as veterans of the amateur team, can they give Gu Wenbai the space to easily dribble the ball?"

"Not going to Chengyue? Why not? Is there a better central defender in the Royal Machinery Factory than Chengyue?"

"Why do you have to go? I have read reports that Cheng Yue's complaints about the Royal Machinery Factory did not come out of thin air, so you dare to say that the conflict between him and the head coach must be fake? How do you know that Cheng Yue is not really fighting with the ball? The team broke up?"

Several coaches quarreled fiercely because they had different ideas.Li Junyang did not make a sound, but fell into deep thought.

He felt that what the coaches said was right, especially the judgment of the strategy adopted by the Royal Machinery Factory when facing the Six Bulls in Rongcheng.

Regardless of whether the Royal Machinery Factory is really at odds with the generals, they will definitely focus on defense in the end.Because if Cheng Yue really had a falling out with Wen Liangcheng, Wen Liangcheng would definitely not give Cheng Yue the chance to face Rongcheng Six Bulls.Without Chengyue, the Royal Machinery Factory's defensive strength has declined. Of course, they can only use intensive defense to ensure that the goal is not lost.And if it is not true, then it is Wen Liangcheng who wanted to set up a maze before the game, which shows that Wen Liangcheng is afraid of Rongcheng Liuniu from the bottom of his heart, and he will still adopt intensive defense at that time.

Therefore, the direct result of the authenticity of this incident is whether the Royal Machinery Factory will go to Chengyue when they play against Rongcheng Liuniu.This is directly related to the choice of Rongcheng Liuniu's intensive defense.

Rongcheng Liuniu is indeed not afraid of the Royal Machinery Factory, but with the lessons learned from the Zishi weekend, Li Junyang and his coaches do not want to capsize the gutter.Since they have enough candidates without being the main force, they have to use the safest combination.

If the Royal Machinery Factory plays Chengyue, the threat of a header from their cross will be much smaller, so Jiang Wei should sit on the sidelines and send Gu Wenbai to rush.If the Royal Machinery Factory does not go to Chengyue, then they should let Jiang Wei, a high point, suppress the opponent's defense and put Gu Wenbai on the sidelines.

Of course, as the head coach of Rongcheng Liuniu, Li Junyang thinks more comprehensively. While thinking about the offensive combination, he is also thinking about the defensive problem.

Among the various materials he knew, he summed up a few very characteristic players of the Royal Machinery Factory.Among them, Wang Dazhuang and Jian Yifan were the ones that gave him the most headaches.

Both of these are speed players who are good counter-attackers.The way the Royal Machinery Factory uses the two will bring different impacts to the Rongcheng Liuniu defense line.
