21. The Gone Kane

"Fuck, what the hell is Harry Kane doing?! This is the style of England's starting center?!" John Collins waved his fists in front of the TV, his eyes full of mockery, and he wished he was the head coach and kicked Harry Kane out of the field immediately!

The family did not follow Wen Sheng to Slovakia, but it did not prevent everyone from gathering together to watch this game that was crucial to Wen Sheng. They silently supported Wen Sheng behind their backs.

"Be quiet! John! You should put your damn ass on the sofa, you blocked our eyes!" Adam really wanted to kick John's ass hard.

Uncle Wien took a sip of beer and shouted, "Can you calm down! John, damn, can you sit down? Or come behind the sofa!"

Seeing that he was about to become a public enemy of the whole family, John had no choice but to move back to the sofa, and his mouth still refused to let Harry Kane go, "This is a mistake, a damn mistake! Daniel should not trust this guy!"

"I have to say! This guy has simply blinded his body!" Elizabeth also echoed John and complained about Harry Kane!

The game has been around thirty minutes, and one of the points of the game is that Harry Kane is unable to complete the task assigned to him by Wen Sheng. He is completely untenable in the frontcourt and is completely at the bottom in the confrontation with former Liverpool strongman Scotter and has no effect at all!

In contrast, Kane's forward partner Vardy has at least one thing worthy of praise, that is, he can run. Although he looks like a headless fly, he can at least put some pressure on the opponent's defense line!

In the live broadcast room of the BBC, former England captain Terry Butcher complained about Wen Sheng crazy, "It seems that this England team is worse than two months ago. At least we can control the situation under Hodgson's leadership. But now?! We can't even control the scene! I don't understand why Wen must use 442, which is a backward tactic! There is no advantage in front of Slovakia. Our defense line is under tremendous pressure from the opponent, and the offense is not good! Kane's performance is very bad and his condition is too bad. Why not go to Rooney?!"

Reality is often so cruel. Once the progress is not going well, everyone is qualified to criticize!

At the game, Wen Sheng was a little anxious while standing on the sidelines. The game was not going well. Kane originally performed well in training, but now in actual combat, he was really a bit bad. He was not used to the 442 style of playing and did a bad job of running and receiving. Even Zaha and Milner on the wing were unable to play.

Jan Kozak, who was sitting at home not far away, had his brows frown and his expression was not relaxed at all. The Slovakian head coach, who is now in his sixties, was not satisfied with the game at all. Although England played in a mess, Slovakia could not create any good opportunities. In terms of defense, England is barely strong and very good.

During the European Cup in the summer, the two teams met in the group stage. At that time, Kozak said that England had no thighs and lacked a role to control the game. In his eyes, Rooney was obviously not much worse than the top midfield controller. This is a fact. Today he also saw the changes in Wensheng.

You said that we can't control the midfield, okay, then I won't play the control assembly with you, right?!

So Kozak saw a team of England returning to the era of high-rise play. At the beginning, Kozak was still a little scared when he found that England's tactics changed. However, as time went by, he found that England's offense was indeed monotonous, and the forward condition was really not very good!

He was relieved and directed the team to actively attack, but this resulted... It was hard to describe in one word. Slovakia also did a bad job in the last pass!

Slovakia, who plays at home, has a certain advantage in ball possession rate. In order to consolidate its defense, Wen Sheng saw this, simply let the formation recover a little. Henderson and Dell's midfield partners are really weak in control. Fortunately, they have a strong sense of filling up positions, and they still have sufficient protection for centre-backs Stones and Smalling.

Compared to winning this game, Wen Sheng is less willing to end up losing in the bottom of his heart, so defense is still the most important thing!

The game was stalemate until the end of the first half, and the two sides still had a 0:0 draw!

"In the second half, we should consider changing Carol! Maybe we can consider... Rooney!" As soon as the referee blew the whistle, Wen Sheng turned to the locker room, and assistant coach Matt Lawrence spoke hesitantly.

Replacing Rooney is definitely going to replace Vardy. Lawrence knows Wensheng's tactical ideas very well. He will not choose Vardy and Rooney to partner, and he will give 442. There is no frontcourt high point, which is something Wensheng is unwilling to accept.

"No hurry!" Wensheng breathed, "Harry is in a bad state. I would rather Jamie be on the court. In such a stalemate game, Jamie's unremitting running may bring us opportunities!"

Do you believe Rooney or your brother-in-law?!

Is this more important?! Wensheng is more willing to bet on his brother-in-law. The first brother-in-law will definitely work harder than Rooney. Second, Lawrence values ​​Rooney's creativity in the frontcourt more, but Wensheng doesn't trust Rooney very much. The opponent adopts a close-up tactic for the striker's defense today. The old and weak Rooney is not as good as before. He has not played as a forward for a long time. It's still a little bit whether he can adapt to the forward position. Instead of doing this, it's better to make Vardy. After all, Vardy is young and has stronger explosive power. He still does a good job of getting rid of one or two times in the first half.

Rooney's attitude is not clear. Since he was the head coach of the national team, Wensheng and Rooney have a harmonious relationship, but will Rooney work hard?! Wensheng has no idea! He is conservative and unwilling to take risks before he locked in the victory!

After the game, Kane was very disappointed. Carol, Antonio and others sat on the bench and stared at him. He was also very anxious, but for some reason, his legs seemed to be filled with lead while standing on the court, and it was difficult to move!

He also knew that his performance was a bit bad, but he still had some complaints in his heart, feeling that there was little support provided to him in the middle and backcourt.

"Hey, Harry! Relax, man! We have forty-five minutes left!" Today's captain was Milner. He usually acted as a pistachio in the team. Now he is burdened. Kane's poor performance is seen by everyone in the team, but in comparison, Milner obviously trusts Kane more.

At 188, he weighs 90 kilograms, Kane doesn't look fat at all. It's not fat but strong muscles. His physical condition is enviable. Milner just thinks that Tottenham Sagittarius is really unlucky today!

"Thank you, James! I'm fine!" Kane thanked Milner for his kindness.

"That's the best!" Milner patted Kane on the shoulder, "You should have more interaction with Jamie, there is too little connection between you!"

Kane has not reached its peak at this time. Compared with his ability to make goals, he has stronger scoring ability, so he is now a serious scoring shooter. However, in Wen Sheng's tactical system, whether he, as a center, scores goals is secondary. What's more important is that he can withstand people and do the ball. He is targeted at a center like Da Geerou. This way of playing Kane really takes some time to adapt. It is understandable that he and Vardy have little interaction in the first half!

Kane and Milner were discussing on the road how to improve their performance in the second half, but entering the locker room, Wensheng immediately gave Kane a bad news, "Harry, you can rest in the second half! Andy! You go!"

Kane's face changed with a flash. As for his competitor Carol, he naturally expressed his joy and listened carefully to Wensheng's tactical explanation.

Wensheng has no time to take care of Kane's feelings for the time being, and he must make some changes in the second half!

He remembered Allegri's classic tactics, a seamless switch between 352 and 442.

"James, you can close a little in the second half, Kyle, you can make up for defense in the middle. When we defend, I hope to form a 5 defender. When attacking, you should use long-distance passes. Will, you should be the main attacking point in the second half! Don't be afraid, you need to exert all your energy, don't just go down the bottom, pay attention to cooperating with Jamie, and cut in when it's time to cut in!..." Wensheng planned the team again.

Still not keeping the ball in the first place. Slovakia is not impeccable. Judging from the situation in the first half, they still want to win in front of their hometown elders and their playing style is not conservative. So they continue to do this in the second half. Can't England take advantage of the opportunity to fight back?!

Milner's breakthrough ability is average, but Zaha is different. This is a famous king of extraordinary people (extreme death). He has strong explosive power and can explode when he is in good condition. If he is in bad condition, he may be seized by the opponent to counterattack. Therefore, Wensheng can suppress Milner's side. When Zaha is in great condition, England can still form a better width and depth in the backcourt.

At the same time, the team will continue the tactics of making a fuss around high centres in the first half, and two methods will be used in two ways. As for when to use which tactics, it depends on the players' own understanding!

Wensheng quickly made the adjustments. Kane sat in his position with a little low voice to change his equipment. He felt unhappy, but he absolutely did not dare to act rashly. There was no way to be here. Wensheng was the biggest, with abundant martial ethics. Even if he was unhappy, he could only endure it silently!

Tottenham, you are the star of the league, but in this England national team, you are nothing in front of Wen Sheng!

Fortunately, Wensheng didn't care about him. After explaining the tactics, the players rested and adjusted. He walked to Kane and said to Kane, "Harry, come with me! Talk for a few words!"

Kane stood up obediently and followed Wensheng out of the locker room. Kane's clothes were soaked. Wensheng frowned and said to him, "Change your clothes first and then come out! Be careful not to catch a cold!"

This game was held in the evening. The temperature in the local area is not high at night, so you should pay attention to it.

Kane, who had changed his clothes, came out again, Wen Sheng comforted her warmly, "You didn't perform very well in the first half. If you were in the club, I could give you more time! But this is the national team, our qualifiers are not the league, and the tolerance rate is lower. This game is also the first game. I must make adjustments immediately! I hope you can understand!"

Tyrant, the character of a dictator is of course very important, but it is definitely inappropriate to blindly adopt the dictator approach. You have to be gentle at critical moments. You say that you lack Butcher Zhang and Butcher Li, but in fact, if you lack these players, it is difficult for Wen Sheng to ensure that you can lead the national team well. Players are the basis of your performance!

After hearing Wensheng's explanation, Kane felt much more comfortable in an instant. This represents Wensheng's strong respect. Who doesn't want to be respected?!

"I can understand, General!" Kane answered attentively.

"Very good! Man, you know my tactical requirements! We won't have too much time to practice together. If you want to understand the tactics thoroughly and meet your requirements, you have to use your daily time more! I hope you can be more versatile, which is also good for consolidating your position in the club! Do you understand?!" Wensheng means that Kane uses the club's competition to temper himself. Kane is not a fool, so why doesn't he understand?!

And as Wensheng said, this was good for him, so Kane agreed very happily. In essence, the young man was still an obedient and honest person!
