Every head coach has his own "template" for winning.
Or, it can also be said to be a routine.
As soon as they heard this, many fans would definitely give up. How could such a thing happen?
In the conventional definition, routine often represents rigidity and badness, but in fact it is not.
The game of football is essentially a very simple thing.
Attack, plus defense!
So football tactics can also be very simple, offensive tactics, plus defensive tactics.
After unfolding this, it is the team's offensive formation and defensive formation.
But everyone knows that offense and defense pay attention to different things. Transforming an offensive formation into a defensive formation requires a process. This process is called offensive and defensive conversion.
Therefore, as long as your offensive formation can play its maximum role, your defensive formation can organize the strongest defense, and the speed and efficiency of offensive and defensive transitions are faster than those of your opponents, then congratulations, your team will definitely be invincible.
Invincible.
You see, it's so simple and routine.
It's so simple that everyone thinks that if I tie a dog to the head coach position, I can easily win the game.
The routine is such that I, an amateur fan, can see the problem, but you, a professional loser, don't even notice it.
Get out of here, labor and management will come in person!
But is it really that simple?
As we all know, there are several ways to observe a team's offensive capabilities, such as whether it can create shooting opportunities, the use of offensive space, etc., but this is just observation.
For example, there is obviously a large gap in front of the ball, and the winger in front is obviously fighting alone and struggling to support. Why don't the full-backs dare to press forward to support?
Fans can vent their dissatisfaction and curse, but the coach cannot.
He has to consider the player's speed and physical fitness, as well as the opponent's offensive players. If it is easy to press him, can he come back?
Is Roberto Carlos strong enough?
But what does it look like to be scolded later in your career?
Why?
Because after he was pressed up, he couldn't come back!
Sometimes when watching the live broadcast, you will find that it is obviously a very good opportunity, but the player with the ball just immerses himself in dribbling the ball, directly leading himself into a dead end, losing the ball, and wasting an excellent offensive opportunity.
Fans can scold: Why the hell don’t you know how to pass the ball out?
But the real situation may be that this player was approached and forced to the wing, and the passing options were narrowed. The two passing routes of the surrounding teammates were blocked, and the pass was lost. So what should we do?
Just keep your head down!
Is it possible that he handed the ball to the opponent and said: Sorry, our attack failed this time, it's your turn.
There is no such truth in the world, is there?
Therefore, football tactics are actually very, very complex.
It's so complicated that there's no way to explain everything clearly in simple words.
Some things are easy to talk about, such as oppression.
This is what Gao Shen is best at.
Oppression also requires timing.
You can't possibly say that the opponent is picking up the ball in an open area, surrounded by contact points, but you are trying your best to press. Isn't this a waste of your physical energy?
The best time to initiate pressure is when the opponent's ball is on the wing, or even in a narrow area close to the sideline, or when the number is at a disadvantage, or when the ball is being passed back. In this way, the opponent's options are small and the space is small.
The effect is the best.
So how to oppress?
Compress the space, directly aim at the player with the ball, and use your own team's overall movement to apply pressure at the same time.
Gao Shen and his team have a lot of experience in this area, so they know how to talk and do it, and they also know how to effectively instill it into the players. This is something that can be said.
But in fact, every head coach has a lot of unspeakable thoughts, and they all have some of their own winning strategies, which they will never tell others, or even if they are told, others may not use them well.
Because it is based on their personality, gradually explored, mastered and skillfully used, it is a completely personal routine.
Once you master some of these routines, no matter what team you coach, you will have a very obvious personal imprint, and you will also be able to quickly develop your own unique style, and even use it to compete for various championships.
For example, Guardiola's starting point is to control the ball. No matter what he does, he gives priority to ensuring possession of the ball. With possession of the ball, he can constantly pull the opponent's defensive formation, force and create loopholes for the opponent, and then in this
Basically, the dislocation of players is used to create layers and depth, thereby forming an offensive threat.
Now, his philosophy is not particularly mature, but overall it is.
So what is Guardiola's biggest fear?
It’s not that you set up a bus and defend tightly, nor is it a reckless full-court press, because both of them are almost committing suicide when encountering Guardiola’s team.
What Guardiola fears most is pressing defense.
Gao Shen has proved this to everyone with a living example in the Champions League final.
The question is, do they understand it?
And now, Gao Shen has vaguely captured a vague idea, which is his own way to win.
…
Butragueno asked Gao Shen a question, if he were the head coach of Real Madrid, what would he choose?
Gao Shen was reluctant to answer this hypothetical question at first, but later he couldn't get over Zidane and Valdano's support, so he simply said it.
"Xavi Alonso is a passer who is not inferior to Harvey at all, especially his medium and long passes, which can help the team quickly find gaps and quickly change the rhythm of the game, and his defensive ability is also very good.
powerful."
"So, in the current Real Madrid team, anyone can win. Xabi Alonso must be kept, and at the same time, he must be equipped with a suitable partner."
"Mascherano?"
"If I have to use Kaka, I think it would be Mascherano, or..." Gao Shen shook his head and laughed.
This left Zidane, Valdano and others baffled. Why did they suddenly stop talking?
"Or who?" Butragueno asked curiously.
"I can't say. Anyway, just go and dig Mascherano."
Once the double back midfielders are organized, the card stuck in the front midfielder position will be released.
"Then why couldn't it be Las Diarra?" Valdano asked.
"Las Diarra is an excellent ball grabber and his passing ability is not bad, but to be honest, as a defensive midfielder, he is not qualified because he is too sticky and not stable enough."
Zidane knew Gao Shen very well. He rolled his eyes and guessed why Gao Shen stopped talking.
"Gao, are you having sex with someone again?"
"I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!" Gao Shen directly denied it three times.
Can this kind of thing be said nonsense?
Even if you are Zidane, you cannot accuse someone of innocence out of thin air!
"Listening to your analysis, and based on your Naples thinking, Rakitic has excellent running ability, covers a large area, and has strong explosive power. Whether in offense or defense, he can play a vital role.
And his ability to transfer the ball and distribute the ball is also very good."
Zidane followed Gao Shen's example and began to analyze Gao Shen's ideas.
"David Silva has excellent technical skills and passing ability. He is very capable of dribbling and pushing away. Although he is not fast enough, his calmness and passing ability can make up for the lack of speed to the maximum extent.
insufficient."
"I specifically looked at David Silva's data in Valencia this season and compared it with Modric's data in Tottenham Hotspur. I have to say that we were probably wrong!"
At the end of the sentence, Zidane sighed helplessly.
David Silva has missed many games this season due to ankle injuries and muscle injuries. With only half of Modric's playing time, he has produced amazing statistics of four goals and eight assists.
Modric has three goals and nine assists, which is similar to David Silva.
In addition, David Silva averaged 1.2 dribbles per game and averaged 2 key passes per game. Both of these data are enough to prove his role on the offensive end, and he averaged 3.2 points per game.
Winning the ball back once, making one steal every time, and intercepting one point and six interceptions were all quite amazing performances.
These data are similar to Modric's. The difference is that Modric's passing success rate will be relatively higher, but David Silva's position is further forward, so it is understandable.
Overall, David Silva's role is underrated.
Everyone only saw Villa, but seriously underestimated the role of David Silva.
Hearing this, Gao Shen smiled and said: "I can't say that I underestimated him. I can only say that he was born at the wrong time."
In the national team, I met Xavi, Iniesta, Xabi Alonso and other famous players. In the club, he first played in Valencia, and then went to Manchester City. In fact, David Silva's role and ability have always been
It was not really reflected until later, after Guardiola took charge, that the Spanish midfielder was completely released.
When Zidane said this, he changed the subject, "After introducing David Silva and Rakitic, it is obvious that you are missing a fourth-position player like Thiago Motta, and
Based on your preferences and what you mentioned to me before, I guess you are interested in Javi Martinez of Athletic Bilbao."
Valdano and Butragueno both turned to look at Gao Shen with surprised expressions on their faces.
Damn it, is this guy specifically poaching Real Madrid?
First there was David Silva, and then there was Javi Martinez. These two local players are both very high on Real Madrid's scouting list.
Javi Martinez is tall and strong, but his playing style is not as tough as his appearance. He has excellent ball-handling and passing abilities, and his defense is also quite good. He is indeed very attractive.
Thinking about Gao Shen's hesitation just now, Valdano immediately thought that the person Gao Shen said was partnering with Xavi Alonso was probably Xavi Martinez.
This kid...
Gao Shen did not deny it, smiled, nodded and said: "Sure enough, you, Zinedine, know me best."
"But don't think too much about it, this player already belongs to us!"
