A simple physical condition test was conducted in the morning, and tactical training began in the afternoon. The training time of the national team is very tight, and naturally it cannot be like the club. And Perrin is also under great pressure. The Asian Cup will be at the beginning of next year, and there are only two games before that.
During the national team's training session, Yi Zhe's addition means that the national team's tactics will definitely face adjustments.
In fact, with a player of Yi Zhe's caliber, Perrin has completely new ideas.
"We need to restructure our tactics around Yi."
This is what Perrin said to his first assistant coach Ali.
"Of course Yi is an excellent player, but old man, I'm afraid we don't have time. This team has been centered on Zheng for a long time, and Yi is better at Harvey-style passing and control, which does not fit in with our tactics."
"Then let him do it!" Perrin's attitude was also very firm: "Since Yi can make Wolfsburg play football that crushes Bayern, why can't we try? Only through Yi can our team have the
Possible real transformation, old man, you know."
Ali obviously knew what Perrin was referring to and had a full understanding of this team, but he was still hesitant: "Okay, I'll listen to you, Alan."
In the locker room, Yi Zhe got his new jersey number for the national team. It was not No. 6. This number belonged to center back Feng Xiaoting. The No. 10 jersey, which symbolizes the core, has been worn by captain Zheng Zhi for a long time. He chose No. 8 as a compromise
.
Moreover, during the national team training, Yi Zhe and Zheng Zhi were assigned to a dormitory. He himself did not have any objections, but he guessed that the coaching staff had other intentions.
However, this did not affect his confidence in the national team training. Gao Lin, the main forward of the national team, made a joke unintentionally: "Yi Zhe, you have to take care of us in a while. We definitely can't play Wolfsburg here."
The pace is so fast.”
Yi Zhe raised his head and glanced at him, smiled and waved his hand: "Isn't that easy to say? Brothers, just run around, if you can't pass the ball, I lose."
Everyone in the locker room was stunned, including Zheng Zhi, who thought this was too big a statement. He was wondering whether to remind him or not. After all, Yi Zhe was young and might think it was the same wherever he played, but no one understood this better than him.
A national team.
The players all laughed it off, just beating the drum in their hearts when they walked onto the training ground.
"Hey, you said the coach won't really let Yi Zhe be the main player when he comes up, right?"
"Do you think that's possible? Can we let the main players of Wolfsburg sit on the bench here?"
"That's really suspenseful! If he really plays at Wolfsburg's fast pace, he won't be able to play ball like Barbie Q."
"Yeah... Sigh! Who doesn't want to play that kind of football! But at our age, if we could play that kind of rhythm, wouldn't we have gone to the five major leagues a few years ago? His grandma's!"
"Why don't you just trust him once and see what he does."
Yi Zhe followed and heard some noises, but he did not explain. He just grinned slightly. We are all professional players, and explaining with your feet is sometimes more convincing than using your mouth.
…
The national team has long adhered to the 4-2-3-1 formation, which is the same as Wolfsburg, a system that can best balance offense and defense. At first, Yi Zhe was still wondering whether to play as an attacking midfielder or a defensive midfielder here. After all, here
But no De Bruyne.
As expected, Perrin placed him in the attacking midfielder position. The Frenchman lacked a playmaker, so Yi Zhe naturally had to play De Bruyne's role in the national team.
And just after experiencing a few minutes of tactical training class, Yi Zhe felt that Perrin's biggest request was.
"Confrontation! Confrontation! Gentlemen, in a real international competition, we will encounter opponents with better skills than us, but if we can run one meter more than our opponents, no one can easily defeat us!"
This kind of requirement can be easily met by Yi Zhe now. He has completely run back and forth in the midfield with high intensity, but when he got the ball, he discovered the biggest difference in the national team.
This group of teammates really can't maintain high-intensity running. Yi Zhe launches long-distance passes in the midfield. If it is Wolfsburg's Schürrle or Perisic, they will try to find opportunities to start quickly before he takes a shot.
But here, everyone seems to be accustomed to walking and kicking the ball without the ball. It is not until he has passed the ball that they speed up and chase.
Yi Zhe's first two passes went straight out of the baseline. He gave enough advance, but he was completely out of rhythm with his teammates.
His teammates turned to stare at him, and Yi Zhe raised his arms high and took over the responsibility himself.
Perrin also saw this scene, and it was similar to what he expected.
"As we expected, this is a scene that will definitely happen." Perrin and Ali exchanged words in a low voice, but the Frenchman's idea was more determined: "What we have to do is to let everyone play like Yi."
Yi Zhe looked at his teammates and smiled bitterly in his heart. Standing on the field, he realized what it was like to play different types of football with his teammates.
He smiled. Originally, the head coach required that pressing tactics and long-pass counterattacks be a perfect match, but now he can only try to use short passes and cross passes to greet his teammates.
"Pass the ball!"
"Pass it here!"
"Don't stop, don't stop!"
It had been a long time since he had experienced the feeling of needing to shout to greet his teammates. He had only done this once at Wolfsburg.
But fortunately, the first training session ended smoothly, and in the end, every teammate was able to get the ball by passing the ball.
But in private, Zheng Zhi still came over and asked him quietly: "Zhe, are you not used to it?"
After a training session, Zheng Zhi had already changed his name to a more affectionate name, and Yi Zhe also had a high opinion of the captain. He was the only one on the court who could truly understand the rhythm of his own passing.
"It's okay, Brother Zhi." Yi Zhe laughed and said haha.
"Let's be honest. You can't fool me. I also played football in Europe when I was young. The pace of our league is not comparable to that of the Bundesliga, so you have to feel aggrieved."
Yi Zhe smiled and gave a thumbs up: "I know Brother Zhi, you are at Charlton, and it is awesome to be able to play in the world's first league... Ha, I have to say that I watched you play when you grew up, and you probably won't believe it.
.”
"Huh?" Zheng Zhi was quite surprised. He came over and stared at Yi Zhe seriously: "How come you know everyone so well? And your understanding is a bit... excessive!"
Yi Zhe rolled his eyes: "Uh! Brother Zhi, I'm a midfielder! Isn't it the most basic thing to understand your teammates? You understand, right?"
He also used these words against reporters, and there were definitely not a few media who came to watch the national team training.
"Yi Zhe, can you feel the obvious difference between training with the national team and Wolfsburg?"
"Of course, how can there be no difference if my teammates are all different? Haha, but this is not a problem for me."
But the reporters didn't believe a word this time: "Yi Zhe, are you saying that the training intensity of the national team has reached Wolfsburg's level?"
The reporters dug a hole here, but what they got in return was Yi Zhe's scrutiny: "Journalist, if you ask me this, I will doubt your professionalism. Maybe you don't understand the midfielder at all. The midfielder is the team's
The brain, commander, does not require personal heroism. What needs to be done is to make the whole team act as one person. Do you doubt that I can't do it now?"
No one expected Yi Zhe to give such an answer. The reporters present even prepared the outline of the recent report - the national team encountered difficulties in tactical adjustment, and it was difficult for Yi Zhe and his teammates to synchronize.
A genius from the top five leagues and a group of local players, this is a normal drama they can think of.
But when they saw Yi Zhe at this time, many reporters actually averted their eyes, realizing that they were too small.
