Football: The immortal legend on the green field

Gao Haiyang's toughness was unexpected to everyone. Song Yi, the hot-tempered general manager of Sichuan Sanniu, left the scene in anger. Once there was a first, there would be a second. The general managers of seven clubs, including Longjiang Jiajia, Chang'an Guoli, etc., left the scene one after another.

Gao Haiyang just sneered and looked down upon these people's behavior.

The few people did not walk far, but gathered outside the venue. "Follow me."

Ma Dongcheng of Longjiang Jiajia asked: "Where are you going?"

"Just follow me, there's no need to talk so much nonsense..."

Led by Song Yi, eight people drove to the city, to a five-star hotel that had just opened on New Year's Day, and to the luxurious suite on the top floor. Song Yi knocked on the door and hurriedly bent down to Nan Yong, who was in silk pajamas. A young girl less than 20 years old was about to light up the "Zhongzhi Da Chongjiu" in her mouth. The president of Lancheng hurried forward and lit the cigarette before the secretary. Song Yi was about to speak, but Nan Yong waved his hand to stop him. The curtains of the doors and windows of the room were drawn, as if afraid that the sunlight outside would shine into this dark corner. The constantly red cigarette butts and the wisps of blue smoke reflected Nan Yong's gloomy face.

"I know why you're here. Don't worry. If you want to rebel against me, Gao Haiyang is not qualified yet..."

"But, Chairman Tan..." Song Yi was about to respond when he was interrupted again.

"If it weren't for this ignorant woman, Gao Haiyang wouldn't even have the courage to mention it... The most important thing now is not Tan Jing. After all, she is not the leader who actually manages the daily work."

"You mean Xia Yalong?"

Nan Yong reached out and patted Song Yi's flattering fat face, "Smart, I like to deal with smart people, you guys are like this..."

After hearing this, everyone felt relieved. Seeing Chairman Nan's slightly gloomy face, and then looking at the young girl who still had a beautiful face, they hurriedly handed over their bank cards and backed out of the room like eunuchs in the Qing Palace.

The departure of several club managers did not affect Gao Haiyang's speech.

"I just said that the long-term goal is to generate revenue for the club's long-term operations. The mid-term goal is a single season. A club must have a clear understanding of the strength of its own team. Whether it is striving to win the championship or strive to enter the Asian Champions League, to make some preparations for the next season, or to avoid relegation, there must be a plan, and it cannot be just a matter of winning."

"Modern professional football has already adopted a one-week cycle. After the start of the league, there will be one or two games every week. A week is not a long time, so how to arrange this small cycle is actually very important."

"Everyone should avoid mistakes made during normal training. These are the kinds of mistakes that you may not even notice. These subtle mistakes are the most harmful."

"Please forgive my alarmist remarks, but it is true. For example, some people think that players should play on the big court right away, or that physical fitness is more important than personal skills, and that the team is more important than the individual, which limits the individual's performance in training. This situation is particularly serious in China. Think about why we haven't seen players with excellent personal skills and creativity for a long time?"

"We start preparing for the next game after each game. We first rest, then recover and accumulate physical strength. During this period, we also do some personal technical training. One or two days before the game, we arrange different tactical training according to the opponent. This includes the key tasks of defending the opponent, conducting targeted offensive drills against the opponent's defensive weaknesses, and the overall formation selection, etc."

"Another example: modern football has become overly obsessed with formations. Before a game, we often hear a coach say that they will play in a 4-4-2 or 3-5-2 formation."

The news media publicizes it, and we see it and think it is normal. Then when the team loses, the coach will announce that the next game will use a 4-3-3 formation, and we still accept it without question, thinking that the coach has finally found the crux of the loss, and then victory will follow. But what is the reality? ”

Gao Haiyang spread his hands, curled his lips, and had a very European expression.

"After Brazil won the 94 World Cup in the United States with their classic -- formation, the -- became popular all over the world. To what extent did it become so popular that even women and children who knew little about football would first say -- when they mentioned football."

"In the 02 World Cup, the Brazilian team won the championship with the -- formation, which then created a new round of fashion trends, but this time the trend was the -- formation. Now if someone talks about the -- formation, they will be laughed at for being tactically conservative! How ridiculous!"

"Why is no one willing to think about it? In 94, Brazil had Dunga, the iron gate, and Taffarel, the best goalkeeper in Brazilian history. Although Pereira insisted on a defensive style of play, which killed Brazil's artistic football, they relied on Dunga, the defensive tactics of the entire Brazilian team, and the 'golden combination' of Romario and Bebeto in the frontcourt to capture the city."

"In 02, everyone focused on 3R and the double card. But no one saw the excellent form of Brazil's three central defenders, and no one saw the crazy tackles of the two unknown defensive midfielders. It was as the game progressed that Brazil's defense gradually got into shape, and they finally won the championship."

"But these are often overlooked in the halo of victory. Once a team fails, the formation is likely to be the first to bear the brunt and become a tool for coaches or players to shirk their responsibilities."

When the team has problems, they think that all they need to do is change the formation and personnel and everything will be fine.”

"But in fact it is not that simple. Of course, I am not saying that we must stick to one formation. Football attaches great importance to tactical thinking, and the so-called various formations are just bottles for tactical wine. If we only focus on the formation without considering the tactical thinking, it is just like putting old wine in a new bottle, without any new ideas."

There was a slight commotion in the audience. The problems Gao Haiyang mentioned were not considered problems in their daily life, but they did not expect that when it came to Gao Haiyang, they would become problems everywhere. "

The vast majority of people in the audience showed expressions of dissatisfaction.

Gao Haiyang saw this, stood up, and signaled the staff to turn on the big screen at the back. "The first thing that appeared on the screen was the Coca-Cola logo, and then it swept across the audience stands, and the camera swept through Bobby Charlton, Mourinho, Zaccheroni, Wenger, Ronaldo, Zidane, Figo, Kaka, Papin and other international coaches and players one by one."

"What kind of competition is this? Why are there so many big names here? The World Cup final is just like this..."

There was constant discussion in the audience.

"Yes, I also saw Mendes. He is the world's top football agent..."

Gao Haiyang was obviously very satisfied with their reaction. He then pressed the pause button and the screen stayed on the player exit channel. Four referees were frozen in the screen and only the red and white jerseys could be vaguely seen. The players' faces were blocked by the referees and no one could tell which two teams were facing off.
