Football: My coaches are all world-class stars

Although Zhang Bo's sudden change on the court made him a little uncomfortable, Ranieri was quite relieved off the court.

I'm not afraid that Zhang Bo will struggle a little, but I'm afraid that he will be dazzled by the current situation and not know his own disadvantages.

Fortunately, Zhang Bo is still relatively sober.

In the end, in the first leg of the third round of the League Cup, Millwall easily defeated Stoke City 2-0 at home.

Age succeeded in revenge and got two hundred pounds from Zhang Bo.

In the next league game, they will face a London derby.

Away to Stamford Bridge to challenge the Blues Chelsea.

The good news is that most of the players who have completed international breaks are back.

The reason why most of them are said is because there is something wrong with Abdu who is far away in Africa.

Due to some force majeure, their friendly match against Nigeria was postponed for several days.

As the main force of the team, Abdu naturally cannot return to the UK in advance, so he can only miss the game against Chelsea.

Facing Chelsea is not like facing Stoke City.

Although the head coach Sarri is a bit "crony", he is still better than Jones.

Besides, Chelsea's overall level is too strong, and it is impossible for Zhang Bo to have the opportunity to practice.

...

To say that Sarri is nepotism is really not to black him.

It is not a bad thing for the head coach to trust a person, it is understandable.

For example, although Ranieri is aware of Zhang Bo's shortcomings in his heart, he completely trusts him.

But if the trust of the head coach has reached the level beyond the team's tactical needs, then no wonder people say it.

In this regard, Sarri is absolutely typical.

The story has to start in Naples.

He met his apprentice Higuain there, and from then on, wherever he went, he would bring Higuain with him.

If you go to Chelsea, you will bring Higuain to Chelsea, and if you go to Juventus in the future, you will bring Higuain to Juventus.

One has to wonder whether these two people have come to worship.

It would be fine if Higuain was young and strong, but now he is very old, and I don't know why Sarri loves him so much.

Jorginho is also in the same situation, but fortunately Jorginho is younger and much better than Higuain.

And when someone gets close, someone stays away.

Sarri vigorously supported Jorginho and Higuain, so he had to suppress Kante, Marcos Alonso and others.

At the same time, it is trying to overthrow the three central defender system left by the predecessor Conte and re-establish its own tactical system.

However, Sarri has no great honors and lacks the determination to kill decisively. The reform has encountered huge resistance since the beginning.

A group of Chelsea players questioned Sarri's tactics one after another, and also laid the groundwork for goalkeeper Kepa's blatant refusal to be substituted in the game in the future, which made Sarri lose face.

In short... Chelsea is strong and strong, but the dressing room is also a bit messy.

...

根据切尔西目前这一特点，虽然主力回来，拉涅利还是排出了与常规4-2-3-1不同的4-4-2阵容，以面对切尔西还没适应的双中卫体系。

Sure enough, Chelsea really lined up a four-back lineup.

No. 1 Kepa guards the goal.

The defensive line is lined up in order, namely No. 28 Azpilicueta, No. 2 Rudiger, No. 30 David Luiz, and No. 3 Alonso.

Midfield No. 17 Kovacic, No. 5 Jorginho, No. 8 Barkley.

Forward No. 22 William, No. 9 Higuain, No. 11 Pedro.

This paper strength must be much higher than that of Millwall, but Ranieri aimed at the goal of victory.

...

"Wallace, Shaqirido rushed into the penalty area. Don't be afraid of making mistakes and losing the ball. We have to attack their defense line and make them make mistakes in their positions."

"Zhang Bo walked outside the penalty area, wandering in the two areas inside and outside the penalty area, pulling their midfield and back line to coordinate."

"They are not yet familiar with the four-back system. They have changed their lineup many times throughout the season. We have to take advantage of their pain point and give them a blow."

It has to be said that Ranieri still has a strong control over the locker room now.

After the start of the game against Chelsea, the players kept in mind Ranieri's instructions, Wallace and Shaqiri resolutely rushed to the middle, and Zhang Bo tested the cooperation between the midfielder and the defense.

And Zhang Bo's opponent is Jorginho, a direct descendant of Sarri.

In July 2018, as Sarri entered Chelsea, Jorginho joined Chelsea with a transfer fee of 7 million pounds.

But if you really say that Jorginho is much better than Kanter, it is not much worse.

Moreover, both of them were born in 91, and their ages are not much different. If Sarri hadn't entered Chelsea, Chelsea probably wouldn't have bought him.

Of course, Jorginho himself has his own characteristics.

The most important technical feature of Jorginho is the horizontal half-turn pass, that is, by changing the direction to avoid the opponent's close encirclement.

The vertical one kick is also his strong point, which is a must-have ability for an offensive organizer, and Jorginho's ability to find gaps like this is needed in quick counterattacks.

Jorginho has a clear mind and reasonable distribution of the ball. He is the team's offensive and defensive transition metronome, and his stealing ability is not bad.

In fact, the first thing Zhang Bo felt was Jorginho's defensive strength.

The guy pressed against his side, and every time he got the ball, it was very uncomfortable.

Moreover, he stood in his own area very tightly. Once Zhang Bo entered, he would be closely watched.

Even if you retreat, others enter with the same intensity. It can be said that you have firmly stood in the defensive area.

After the start of the game, although Zhang Bo wanted to interfere with the connection between Chelsea's midfielder and defender according to the plan, the effect was not obvious.

It was Wallace and Shaqiri who pierced through the ribs and caused some confusion.

The difference between three central defenders and four defenders is mainly in the protection of the two sides.

In fact, the three central defenders will pay more attention to the sideways, focusing on the triangular pass and cut cooperation combining the side and the center.Relatively speaking, the words of the four backs will focus on the use of deep space.

Take Chelsea, which was still playing a three-back system last season, Luiz, Rudiger, and Cahill at the back, plus Azpilicueta and Alonso on the two wings in the midfield. When defending, the sideways are linked back and forth, and the defensive areas are closely linked.

The back four will be weaker, but the midfield will be solid, the structure will be more stable, and the requirements for the two sides will not be so high.

Each has advantages, it depends on how to choose.

Now Chelsea has changed from three central defenders to four defenders. The middle is indeed stable, and it can also limit Zhang Bo's retreat and Schurle's command.

But Millwall's two wingers, Wallace on one side and Shaqiri on the other side resolutely interpolated, even if they didn't score for a while, they still had some effect.

Azpilicueta and Alonso are of course very strong, but they are somewhat used to the style of play last season.

This will be targeted all the time, but some flaws have been revealed.
