Mkhitaryan joined from the Armenian League, which did not cause many ripples among Southampton fans. They just hoped that the team could perform better after eliminating Birmingham.
The next four consecutive games are in the league, and then the third round of the League Cup. Southampton fans certainly hope that the team can perform better in the league. After all, they do not expect to win the League Cup and can go further.
It's just one step. If you don't perform well in the league, why talk about returning to the Championship? If you fall again, it will be doomed!
However, things didn't seem to be going where they hoped.
In the fifth round, Southampton and low-ranked Stockport drew 1-1 away from home.
In the sixth round, Southampton faced the fifth-ranked Cochester United at home. They performed well at home and defended quite solidly, but their offense was quite average and they failed to score. In the end, they lost to zero.
end.
In the seventh round, Southampton challenged the second-ranked rival Charlton away in an away game. They even performed quite well in this game, relying on center back Lovren's header to temporarily lead this powerful team 1-0.
Unfortunately, it was Lovren who accidentally scored an own goal in the penalty area at the last moment, and the game ended 1-1.
Counting the draw in the fourth round, Southampton has drawn four consecutive games!
Southampton fans were devastated.
The season has passed seven games, more than one-seventh of the games, and Southampton has only scored seven points, still losing three points...
If this continues, reaching the English Championship will be just a dream, right?
The opposition to Ji Ya began to grow louder.
Although from the content point of view, these four draws are actually remarkable. At least apart from Stockport, Brundford, Charlton and Colchester United are all strong players in English League One this season.
The team, especially Charlton, with six wins and one draw in seven rounds, has rushed to the first place, sharing the same points with Leeds United, and the only thing that caused them to suffer a draw was Southampton!
From this perspective, Ji Ya did a great job.
However, we are still at the bottom, nine points away from the relegation zone, which is hardly satisfactory.
Under such circumstances, Ji Ya remained silent, but there was surprisingly no chaos inside Southampton.
The reason is simple. Everyone can feel Noriya's progress on the training ground.
If in the beginning, Noriya was basically useless on the sidelines of the training field, during this period, he began to have more say in tactical training, and at the same time, he constantly pointed out what the players should do - at least until
Now, he looks like a normal head coach.
Such an approach will certainly bring confidence.
Benelli and others lamented that they saw with their own eyes how a genius gradually learns!
There is progress every day and it plays a greater role in training every day!
This is genius!
Some people have been working for a long time and are still just journeymen in the coaching industry - Benelli laughed at himself.
Noriya, on the other hand, is making continuous progress despite having no experience.
Of course Benelli and the others didn't know that during this period of time, Jiya, in addition to studying hard, was also constantly purchasing "tactical skill points" from the achievement point store.
Originally, Noriya wanted to directly buy the tactics of those famous coaches. Whether it was Ferguson's tactics, Wenger's tactics, or even Mourinho's tactics and the newly emerged Guardiola's tactics, he could buy them.
, and then have the coach’s existing tactical capabilities.
The maximum price per book is only fifty points, which is great value.
But after careful consideration, Ji Ya still chose to buy tactical points honestly.
One tactical point equals ten achievement points.
After the number of tactical points reaches the target, Kiya can spend two hundred achievement points to purchase the "Tactic Master Deduction Ability" in the achievement store to push his tactical layout ability to a new peak!
Noriya chose this direction, not only because he thought it was better, but also because he began to understand one thing - no top head coach can conquer the world, and Ferguson, Wenger and others are also making continuous progress. If Ferguson still uses
If he had used his tactical ideas in the 1990s to coach the current Manchester United, Manchester United might have fallen behind.
A head coach who has always maintained a top position must be constantly improving.
Moreover, the world of professional football is also constantly improving.
Noriya bought the current coaching ability of Ferguson and the others. If he can't really improve, then he may be out of date in a few years. Will he buy it again then?
Wouldn't that be a waste of achievement points?
Buying tactical points seems to cost more, but they are actually your own and can improve your abilities!
Fortunately, he had accumulated a wave of achievement points before, giving Ji Ya the confidence to increase his tactical abilities.
The original achievement points were 14 points left after he spent a little to show off and spent 5 points to buy Mkhitaryan, but fortunately, he got 20 achievement points after completing the task of winning the first game, and then lit up the second one.
A victory, the first defeat, the first consecutive loss, the first draw, the first consecutive draw, the first three consecutive draws, and the first four consecutive draws each earn five achievement points, making his achievements
It brought you to sixty-nine points in one breath, so Ji Ya added six tactical points to himself in one breath.
After adding tactical points six times, Ji Ya felt that his ears and eyes were sharp, and his IQ seemed to have risen a lot. Many things that he had not understood before could suddenly be understood and understood...
In fact, in these few games, his command and the arrangement of specific tactical details have begun to become more and more decent.
Ji Ya doesn't know how much his tactical points need to be increased to be considered qualified. He can redeem his deduction ability and improve his ability completely. However, at this stage, it is indeed urgent to improve his tactical ability.
!
Noriya is an old fan anyway. At least he knows the basics. At this stage, a good coach can definitely improve the ability of the entire team.
If the tactical ability is not good, good players will not be able to perform well under your hands!
"For us, we had consecutive draws before because of bad luck... At least I insist on believing that our strength is first-rate in English League One and first-rate in the Championship... All we need is time.
Break in."
"We did not play a warm-up match before the start of the season because we were doing better physical training, so in the games after the start of the season, we really trained the team and trained everyone's game status. For a whole month, we
This process has finally been completed. If it weren't for bad luck in the last game, we would have defeated our opponent! The next game is our home court and we have to win! Do you have confidence?"
When Noriya roared like this on the training ground, he received a positive response.
