Guardiola said that his coaching has been influenced by many profound influences.
This is true at the technical and tactical level, and it is also true at the locker room management level.
For example, after taking charge of Barcelona, the first thing he did was to clean up the locker room and cancel many of the original rules.
Because during Rijkaard's coaching period, many regulations existed in name only, it would be better to abolish them than to do so.
Another thing that caused a lot of controversy was that he canceled the centralized accommodation on the night before the game.
In the past, on the eve of a game, whether it was home or away, players basically had to collectively check into the hotel or training base arranged by the team. The advantage of this is that it facilitates management.
After all, players are at home and many things are difficult to control, such as their married life and so on, which can easily affect the next day's game.
But Guardiola abolished this clause.
reason?
"Gao Shen abolished it when he coached Real Madrid, and later when he coached Naples, but he did not see his team perform poorly. Instead, through the self-discipline of the players and the trust in them, they became
Be more disciplined.”
Many things about Guardiola are very similar to Gao Shen, so many people say that he is Gao Shen's direct disciple.
Gao Shen himself denied this statement many times. He repeatedly stated that Guardiola is a very, very outstanding talented coach who always thinks and summarizes and analyzes by himself. No one is his master.
But Guardiola himself said many times that he learned a lot from Gao Shen, and even acquiesced to what the outside world said.
This makes the situation very interesting.
Naples' away game against Arsenal happened to be the eve of Barcelona's home game against Bayern. Guardiola, assistant coach Vilanova and others were all watching the live broadcast at the Gamber Sports City in Barcelona.
Originally, they expected to see a wonderful showdown, but the result...
…
When the game reached the 22nd minute, Arsenal got the ball in the backcourt and kicked back and forth.
Naples appropriately slowed down their offensive and rhythm, and did not rush forward to press, but maintained an overall pressing formation.
After several back-and-forth attempts, the Gunners were still unable to find a path to pass the ball forward. Gallas spotted the opportunity, drove the ball forward a certain distance, and sent a direct pass.
In the front, Adebayor dropped back to a very deep position, received the ball with his back, and passed the ball back to the back line of defense, to Kolo Toure, and the ball returned to Arsenal's defense line again.
.
Kolo Toure met the ball, rushed forward quickly, and dribbled the ball across the center line. Seeing Adebayor return to the 30-meter area, he immediately sent a direct pass and called Adebayor.
Make an appointment.
The Gunners center was moving forward quickly, but Thiago Motta kept close to him, which gave him no chance. He had to back up again and pass Kolo Toure's pass to Walcott on the right rib.
The little tiger started with the ball, cut into the middle, and sent a direct pass to Van Persie in the penalty area.
When Van Persie stopped the ball with his back, he tried to use his body to squeeze away from David Luiz behind him, but he failed to squeeze. Instead, he was somewhat bounced out. When he stopped the ball and turned around, his movements were not well connected, and the Brazilian central defender reacted quickly enough.
, blocked in time, causing Van Persie to miss a good opportunity to kick the ball in the penalty area.
He protected the ball in the penalty area and kept dribbling to the right. He had no choice but to pass it back to Sagna on the outside.
At this moment, Arsenal's right back has almost reached the bottom line.
Sagna stopped the ball, dunked past Vargas, took a step back, and made a pass with his left foot. However, as soon as the ball was passed, it was blocked by Biglia and could not reach the center at all.
Naples quickly seized the spot and launched another quick counterattack.
Almost every quick counterattack by Naples will pose a threat and make everyone in Arsenal break into a cold sweat.
…
"Arsenal is worried!"
Guardiola shook his head. He felt that he already knew the result of this game without watching it.
Vilanova agreed, "The players were also very anxious. Wenger did not stabilize the team in time."
"He is also in a dilemma now. He conceded two goals at home. He can't do it without attacking, and he can't score after attacking." Guardiola smiled bitterly.
"You all think that Mourinho, Capello, and Hiddink are all excellent defensive masters, but I tell you, the ability of advanced defensive coaches is also extremely strong and very targeted."
Everyone was silent.
Back then, when Gao Shen was coaching Real Madrid, his special weapon that made him famous and won the double championship was defensive counterattack.
"Arsenal's biggest problem is still in the midfield." Guardiola was obviously a little disappointed with Arsenal's performance.
"Look at the attack just now, how many times the four players on the back line stepped back and forth. None of the four players in the midfield, especially Song and Cesc Fabregas in the middle, came back to respond. They all pressed forward."
"On the one hand, this is due to their anxious mentality. On the other hand, it can also be seen that there are problems with their running and contact system. Without a fixed contact point at the fourth position, the advancement of the ball will definitely be affected.
In the end, Adebayor ran back from the front and received the ball in the fourth position. After a transition, Adebayor ran forward and received the ball in the 30-meter zone."
This attack is very representative.
Adebayor worked very hard and the Arsenal players were anxious, but what was more important was the players' positioning and division of labor.
"Both Sagna and Clichy pressed forward, but the midfielder could not hold the ball and was unable to effectively delay the counterattack. As a result, as soon as Napoli grabbed the ball, they counterattacked without hesitation and faced the opponent directly.
For central defenders, it is natural to play accurately."
Just as he was talking, he saw Arsenal organizing an attack again.
I still want to hit the little tiger on the right side.
Walcott took the ball and cut diagonally into the penalty area, freeing up the entire right wing for Sagna to step in.
But when the little tiger dribbled the ball to the front of the penalty area, he was double-teamed by a Naples player.
Thiago Motta, Biglia, and Vargas, who suddenly gave up Sagna and rushed to double-team, all three of them trapped Walcott at the same time and successfully intercepted the ball.
Walcott fell at the edge of the penalty area, but the referee did not signal a foul and did not blow the whistle.
Naples quickly launched a counterattack and quickly passed the ball to Sanchez in front.
Fabregas caught up with Sanchez immediately, but the Chilean winger saw that he could not make a quick counterattack in front and immediately passed the ball to the unguarded Rakitic, allowing the midfielder to reorganize.
Rakitic stopped the ball and passed it to Cavani who was retreating in front. The Uruguayan center passed it back to Biglia, who in turn passed it back to Thiago Motta.
After a series of passes, Arsenal's counterattack failed and was forced to position itself.
But before Arsenal's players could return to their positions, Thiago Motta immediately launched another attack.
Vargas moved forward decisively and formed a one-two with Sanchez in the center. He still failed to open up the situation on the left and was forced to pass the ball back to the center.
Arsenal players did not position themselves, but started pressing near the midline.
Napoli made another continuous pass, Biglia passed to Rakitic, who passed back to Thiago Motta, and the Brazilian midfielder passed back to Biglia who was unguarded.
After the Argentine midfielder stopped the ball, he glanced ahead and quickly sent a low, overhead pass directly to the left side behind Arsenal's defense.
Sanchez was seen sprinting as fast as he could, catching up with Biglia's overhead pass before Sagna.
"Not offside!"
"Another quick counterattack from Napoli!"
"Sanchez was not offside and dribbled the ball diagonally into the penalty area!"
Sanchez dribbled the ball from the left corner and rushed into the penalty area. Facing the defense of Kolo Toure, the Chilean winger made a series of fake moves. When he was about to go down, he suddenly braked and changed direction, throwing away Kolo Toure.
After Lou Toure, he pulled his right foot laterally and lightly kicked the outside instep. After adjusting, he followed up and hit a curve ball with his right foot.
This shot came a bit suddenly, but the ball was very fast and the angle was very tricky.
Arsenal's Spanish goalkeeper Almunia has made two or three excellent saves tonight. This time he reacted quickly and dived sideways. However, Sanchez's kick cut in from the left and volleyed with his right foot, a curve ball.
The upper right corner of Kabuto was really tricky.
Almunia can do nothing!
“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!”
"Three to zero!"
"Oh God, in less than half an hour, three to zero!"
"Napoli really played crazy tonight!"
"Gao Shen led his team to an almost perfect first half at the Emirates Stadium!"
"Three to zero! I'm afraid Wenger himself didn't expect that his team would suffer such a disastrous defeat."
"The Gunners played too hastily and were completely out of control in the midfield."
"Perhaps Wenger should not adopt a 4-4-2 tactic, but should choose a 4-2-3-1 and let Song and Denilson form a double midfielder, which will provide greater protection for the defense."
"With the 442 tactic, both Song and Cesc Fabregas are often out of position. This is a very big hidden danger."
"There is also the problem of positioning defense in transition from offense to defense. This is an old problem that has been around for a long time."
"Facing a weaker team with poor passing and cutting ability, Arsenal can create some trouble by applying pressure in the midfield and frontcourt, but facing a team like Naples, which not only has superior passing and cutting ability, but also has an overall strength that is better than
Arsenal is a better team and the Gunners' problems were immediately exposed."
"Yes, many people may not be willing to believe it, but judging from tonight's performance in the first half, Naples is indeed better than Arsenal in strength, and their sophisticated and pragmatic tactics also made Naples' defense very stable."
"So far, the Gunners don't even have any real threatening shooting opportunities, and all offensive lines are blocked. This is obviously not a good thing."
…
When Sanchez scored the third goal, Gao Shen raised his hands high above his head, applauded vigorously, and seemed to be stretching at the same time. He was smiling from ear to ear.
Three to zero!
This game is settled!
In fact, he has always been very confident about this game.
Especially when the player's condition has been adjusted quite well and his physical fitness has not been affected too much, he is even more determined to win!
"Three to zero!"
Gao Shen turned around and smiled cheerfully at Zidane and others.
