Chapter 231 Edward Takes Command Again
Because of Boas's suspension, Edward can only become the team's interim head coach again, which is the saddest thing.Edward didn't hate the feeling of standing on the sidelines, on the contrary, he enjoyed it very much.

But not everyone has the talent to be a head coach. He is just an ordinary person. After such a long period of tempering in football clubs, he has completely given up the idea of ​​becoming a head coach. He is at best an enhanced version of the fan. Cooperating with Mourinho and Boas, he can only be a third-rate coach now. The only good thing is that the next schedule is not too difficult. If he is allowed to fight with Hitzfeld, Bayern Munich showed it in the last round The strength of the team, the team will definitely lose, even if it wins, it is the credit of the players. During that game, he did not think of any countermeasures in his mind.

The next opponent, Leverkusen, is one of the giants in the Bundesliga, but their recent results are not very good. Edward thinks that it should not take too much effort.

When I go home at night, the girls at home are all focused on the movie.

Recently, "The Hardest Moment" has exploded in Asia, especially in China. As a famous international friend, Edward made a movie about his grandfather's biography. 3 million, although it is not as scary as the 5 million in Shaolin Temple, but it also shocked the whole world, they are all estimating how much money Edward made with the film.

Edward knew in his heart that this was for him to save face, and he must have organized a school or something to watch it more than once, which is why there are such terrible data.Before he was reborn, he went to elementary school and junior high school and watched movies with the school many times.

Because of his continuous actions in the country, donating money and materials to projects, cooperation in football and other fields, the number of viewers is completely reciprocated to help him get up, and the domestic media reports are completely positive, and there is no negative report. I don't know why Edward is really a fool.

I can only say that I am touched, the Chinese are like this, whoever treats them better, can't wait to show you their hearts.

What moved him the most was that recently a lot of pirated copies have been caught in China. You can sell other films, but you can’t if you dare to sell "The Hardest Moment".

After dinner, Edward called the old housekeeper to the study.

"Philip, have you been intimidated by the number of moviegoers in China?"

"Master Edward..." The old butler thought for a long time before opening his mouth: "This is simply a miracle. I never thought that 3 million people would go to the movies."

"That's why I like China. You give them one, and they want to give you ten. As long as you exchange your heart for your heart, the Chinese will never treat you badly. I will explain later and announce that every province in China will donate the box office share to the local orphanage."

"But this will cause a big reaction. The main box office of that movie is still in North America and Japan."

"I don't need to explain to others what I do. I can donate my own money to whoever I want."

"Master Edward, you should think about it again, even if you can donate money later, but I have no way to agree to donate the box office share." Philip Jennings said seriously.

"Don't think about it, just do it like this."

Edward looked into his eyes and said: "Many people want to make money in China, but I really want to be friends with them. It is impossible for friends to pay unilaterally. As for North America and Japan, how can I donate them? The contribution to the box office is almost 40.00% of the five costs, and I am still waiting for them to continue to contribute to the box office."

Seeing that Edward could not be persuaded, the old key suggested again: "Then let's announce it after the movie is released."

"Hey, okay."

Edward still made some compromises. The old butler was doing it for his own good, so it was impossible for him to be ignorant of good and evil.

Double standards are indeed a terrible thing. Doing so will indeed hurt the feelings of some people, but it can make compatriots happy. Edward thinks it is worth it. Deep down, he will always regard himself as a Chinese.

Now he is enjoying the advantages of being a European and working hard to make money to enhance his influence and help his motherland in some places as much as possible.

After explaining this matter, Edward asked Philip Jennings to help him prepare the latest Leverkusen game video.

It is very necessary to observe the opponent before the game.

Leverkusen lost one and drew three in the last three games, and their record continued to be sluggish, but after all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, Edward thinks it is better to focus on it.

Seeing the Leverkusen game video, Edward immediately had a weird feeling in his heart, but he still insisted on watching it. After watching the video of the last three games, Edward almost scolded his mother.

This fucking Leverkusen is learning how Bayern played against Union Berlin last season, and they even started a high press.The fluctuation of results is due to the change of tactics, not the team's problem.

These Bundesliga teams completely regard Union Berlin as their biggest enemy.

The next game might not be as simple as he imagined.

----------

During training, the players laughed and joked with Edward.

"Mr. Coach, how do we play next?"

"How many goals do you want us to score in the next game?"

"We will definitely win Leverkusen, don't worry." Ronaldinho expressed his position in front of him with confidence.

The atmosphere of the team is good, but just lost to Bayern Munich, this mental state is very worrying.

"Bastards!"

Edward called the players over to form a circle, and started a new round of speeches: "Seeing that you are in a relaxed state, I have also relaxed a lot. You really have not been affected by the loss to Bayern Munich, but this is not complete. It's a good thing."

"Leverkusen has lost a game and needs to make up for it with victories. Leverkusen has not performed well recently, but their tactics are very targeted. You guessed right, they are targeting us."

"Fouls in the frontcourt, high presses, and even offsides, the next round of the game is not as simple as you think."

"I need a victory, and the fans also want to see a victory, but your current state is very worrying, because the opponents in the next round are very strong, and we need to make more preparations."

"Cheer up and train hard. I will discuss the next tactics with Vilas."

When Boas came to the team later, Edward immediately complained: "Your suspension is not because you can't guide the team's training. Why did you come so late?"

"Sorry, yesterday was another busy night." Boas winked at Edward.

"Sooner or later you're going to be like those players."

"What's matter?"

Edward did not speak, but played the videotape.

Boas's sensitivity is much stronger than his. He jumped up from the stool in surprise after watching the first game: "Is this the tactic Bayern Munich used to deal with us before?"

"That's it, it's tricky."

Of course it is tricky, Boas is having a headache now.Even if he is there, he can only adapt to the situation. Now that Edward is in command of the team, he really can't rest assured. The best way is to find a safe tactic.

"Anti-offside, let's make a fuss about it?" Boas discussed.

"You are the coach, you have the final say."

Edward didn't speak at all.

"That's the decision. During the game, we simply changed the formation, so that the striker and winger are on the same level, and the players on the wing are also shrunk back, so that they can enter the penalty area faster."

"But we're not using the space as well."

"Now we can only take one step at a time."

--------

In support of Edward, Jennifer Aniston held her son and Caroline held her daughter.Winona Ryder and the old butler all appeared in the boxes at Hoffman Stadium.

"Isn't the opponent's performance not very good today? Why is Eddie always frowning these days?" Jennifer Aniston asked suspiciously.

"Mrs. Aniston," the old butler explained, "Leverkusen's performance fluctuations are caused by tactical changes. Their current tactics are aimed at us. Today's game may not be easy."

"Poor Eddie."

Winona Ryder said.

"Trust him, and our players are the best in the Bundesliga." Caroline is the one who knows football best among the three girls.Although she didn't say it, she believed in her heart that now Union Berlin can win most teams with the performance of the players themselves, and Edward doesn't need to worry at all.

"You'll know when the game starts."

For today's game, Edward and Boas have done a lot of work.

Since the contest with Schaff, Boas has more than doubled his workload than before. He has returned to the data madman at the beginning. He is working on the database of Bundesliga players, trying to cover all the players' technical characteristics and growth environment. Just like what I did when I followed Robson.

The starting list was also determined after repeated deliberation.

Today Union Berlin does not have a midfielder and has completely changed to counterattack. The double forwards can provide more support points in the penalty area.In this case, Klose will definitely start. As long as he is in Harvey Alonso, he can directly make a long pass to find the penalty area. The offense is simpler and rougher. Klose’s dominance in the penalty area can make things a lot easier. .

He was partnered with David Villa. In terms of forward candidates, Edward and Boas also had a big difference. Boas hoped that Van Persie could start, but Edward finally convinced him.

Van Persie and Villa are really hard to say who is better. Van Persie is almost sure when dealing with volleys. His kung fu of shooting directly without stopping the ball is better than many forwards.

But Villa has a little advantage, that is, his feet are more balanced, which allows him to find opportunities on both the left and right sides. If Van Persie reaches the right foot, he will not be very smart.

Ronaldinho is still on the left. After strengthening his muscles, Ronaldinho has greatly improved his physical fitness. Now his header ability is not bad. Not to mention he is an air fighter, but Harvey Alonso's If the pass lands late, he won't be unable to fight back when he is fighting for the top.

On the right winger, Maicon will start today. This is also aimed at Leverkusen. Behind him is Sun Jihai. Sun Jihai's defensive ability is very strong, so there is no need to worry.

Maicon has the ability to dominate a side lane, but running up and down will still waste energy. If he is allowed to specialize in offense without retreating so deep, it will cause a lot of trouble for the opponent. Today Maicon can concentrate on helping the two forwards deliver shells , always threatening Leverkusen's penalty area.

The two defensive midfielders Harvey Alonso and Van Bommel have no doubts. The two of them have basically secured their main positions now, and the opportunities De Jong gets are getting less and less.

Van Bommel is like an enhanced version of De Jong, and has good organizational skills. He has no advantage over the national team's big brother. He can only come off the bench now and rotate Harvey Alonso or Van Bommel. It is difficult to start in such important games as before, but fortunately, the players do not seem to have the idea of ​​leaving the team.

De Jong's status in Union Berlin is still good. The player himself is capable and talented. He has a good relationship with his teammates. He is also quite smart in playing football and is willing to do dirty work. If this kind of player leaves Edward, he will have a headache.It is not easy or difficult to find a main player. Even if Villa or Van Persie leaves the team, he can find a replacement immediately. Now Torres is still at Atletico Madrid, but players like De Jong want to find A replacement is not easy.

Today's left-back arrangement is Philip Neville, and his defensive ability is trustworthy.The two central defenders are Pepe and Ramos. They are fast enough to deal with Leverkusen's striker. Vidic's turning speed is too slow. Nesta had a problem before the game Cold, this is already the best choice.

There is no doubt about the goalkeeper, the Dutch goalkeeper Van der Sar is very reliable.

But after the game started, Edward still cursed out loud, and Leverkusen changed from four backs to three backs!Today they played 352, not to say that 352 will be bad, but the tacit understanding will increase a lot when one less defender uses offside traps, and it is much easier to coordinate three people than four.

The 5 people in the midfield are almost a line, and the two full-backs can return to the back line at any time to become full-backs, so there is no need to worry about the defensive ability of this formation.

Klaus Augenthaler really deserves to be the coach of the Sanya King. There is nothing to say about his tactical ability. The most important thing is that he has used four backs in the last few games. Edward and Villas-Boas did not expect it to become like this.

Could it be that their three-back formation has been trained for a long time, just for today's Union Berlin?Edward had an ominous premonition in his heart.

The opponent has prepared so much, and obviously wants to give Union Berlin a surprise.

But why?

Edward couldn't figure it out at all. He gave up the few games before this game?It is not easy for Leverkusen to enter the Champions League in a stable ranking, and a mistake will make them give up the fourth position.Is it so important to win Union Berlin?

If he asked Klaus face to face, the other party would definitely tell him that it was so important!

Klaus believes that the loss to Union Berlin in the League Cup was the beginning of his loss of the Treble, and now he wants revenge!
