Theoretical exploration is not without practice. Some shallow attempts must be made to prove the directionality and rationality of the theory. Therefore, Wang Ai’s performance became very abnormal during the following period. On the training ground,
Even when facing Wang Ai from Manchester City's youth team, there are times when he misses a single shot, and as time goes by, the probability becomes higher and higher.
Now Pellegrini can't sit still. He is actually a person who can sit still very well. But now that Wang Ai's changes have been discovered by even the ordinary staff of the club, as the head coach, he must express a certain amount of concern and then give it to the management.
Let’s make an explanation.
But watching Wang Ai's serious "mistakes" time and time again on the training ground, the Chilean was a little scratched his head. He subconsciously thought of the German media's interview with coach Heynckes before and after the Ballon d'Or last year. He had already retired.
The old man's evaluation of Wang Ai was: "He is a person who never causes trouble for the coach."
Based on their observation and understanding of Wang Ai over the past year, the Chileans believe that the old coach's words have two meanings: The first level is that he is extremely self-disciplined and never lets the coach worry about discipline, off-field, diet or even training and competition.
All you have to do is trust him and just watch; the second meaning is not so good. He has his own ideas, patterns and even systems. To him, the coach is just a person who sets goals and restrains his teammates. To him,
It is ineffective because he does not need or want to listen to the coach's overly specific guidance.
Even if you insist on saying it, he will accept it, but as long as you don't take the initiative, he will never take the initiative.
With the gentle personality of the Chilean, it was difficult for him to force Wang Ai to do something, so he still chose a gentle way to deal with Wang Ai's problems.
After defeating his EFL Cup opponent the day before the 25th, he deliberately waited near the parking lot at the end of evening training. Wang Ai was stunned when he saw him, and then apologized: "Sorry, coach, my performance was a bit poor in yesterday's game.
"
"How can it be considered bad if a striker scores a goal? I can't be so harsh." Pellegrini joked.
Wang Ai also smiled, knowing that he was in trouble so he didn't rush to get in the car. Sure enough, the Chilean's blue eyes set in deep wrinkles looked at him: "Are you in trouble?"
Wang Ai thought for a while and shook his head with a smile.
The Chilean sighed in his heart, sure enough! But he still followed up: "I am your coach and also your friend. Although my career is far less brilliant than yours, I have been around longer. So, what can I do to help?
Yours? You know, I want to help you, not as a coach, but as a friend."
Looking at the Chilean people in the setting sun with the magnificent City Football Academy as the background, Wang Ai pursed his lips, thought about it and looked at him again, and lowered his voice and said: "I am researching new technologies."
The Chilean made a silent "Ah" and leaned back. Seeing Wang Ai smiling, he smiled and said: "So that's it, you guys... No wonder you three are so successful. What kind of technology is it?"
Can you tell me something?"
Seeing the Chilean's eyes shining with curiosity, Wang Ai shook his head in embarrassment: "To be honest, I don't know what the specific technology is. I just feel that my progress has stopped now and I want to make a breakthrough. If I don't make a breakthrough, I will
I will gradually lose interest in football and repeat myself over and over again."
Pellegrini took a deep breath when he heard the sound, put his hands in his pockets, lowered his head and moved his feet for a while, then raised his head: "But this is troublesome."
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
After saying that, he waved to Wang Ai, and the two of them walked along the edge of the parking lot: "This is the World Cup year, and our team has been greatly affected. You, kun, have not recovered until now. Coincidentally, there is another African country in winter.
For the Cup and Asian Cup, you and Yaya have to leave for a month, including warm-up and recovery, which is two months. Oh my god, the league only lasts for more than seven months in total."
"The FIFA virus has never been so serious." Although Pellegrini still had his hands in his trouser pockets, his tone was as sad as the leading actor in an opera: "But what should the team do? Not only do we not have any strong players this summer,
Signing in, and even sending Negredo away... this is probably going to be a season of nothing."
Wang Ai pursed his lips and didn't want to mention the Community Shield Cup. In theory, it was actually a supplementary cup for last season's champion, but it was just placed before the start of the new season. Similarly, there is the Club World Cup in winter, which should also be considered a top-tier cup.
of the season.
"The original idea was to use the time before you two leave to try to score points. You know, although the European Champions Cup, the Asian Cup, and the African Cup are staggered, we still have the league, and other players besides you will be there.
The period of time you left has deepened the wear and tear. Even if you come back without injuries, it will be difficult to recover quickly, so this year's European Champions Cup... I still want to keep the league championship."
Wang Ai did some calculations in his mind and discovered that the key events of the League Cup and FA Cup actually happened during the Asian Cup and African Cup. In the case of fighting on the third line or even the fourth or fifth line, facing a player who only sent
Without the thin team thickness of the new players, the Chileans, who are trying to make up for the new by demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall, may have to focus on the league.
"But now you have encountered this problem again, can you tell me when it will be solved?"
Facing the expectant gazes of the Chileans, Wang Ai shook his head with a complicated expression: "I can't tell."
The Chilean nodded in understanding, but comforted him: "Technological exploration is never easy. To change the habits you have always had, even if there are many mature people who can refer to it, you still have to mobilize your own body."
Wang Ai nodded and continued to listen to the Chilean without explaining the difference between development and learning.
"Now I have an idea that I want to share with you, and you can see if it makes sense or not."
"Manuel, tell me."
Hearing Wang Ai's obviously more affectionate address, the Chileans felt relieved: "You chose to score with headers in these two games. Are you developing your ball skills at your feet? Have you considered that the ball at your feet is unstable, so
Choose to help me with a header?"
Wang Ai smiled and said that helping the coach was just a side purpose. Basically, it was because he is a super giant, the one who can score goals best. This trait cannot be lost!
Pellegrini smiled knowingly: "So, how about continuing to use more headers? In this regard, Manchester City's forwards are blank, and only a few opportunities, such as corner kicks, will allow the big defenders to step forward and try.
And if you decide to use more headers, our attack will be richer."
Wang Ai looked at the Chilean who was extremely patient with him, and his heart felt warm: "If you need it, okay, I will try my best to play a traditional center."
