(My father is ill and is being taken care of in the hospital. I can only update according to the time. The chapter that was delayed yesterday, I will see if I can make it up tonight. Brothers, no need to wait, I will check it out tomorrow morning)
In response to Altidore's large muscle tear caused by the collision with his opponent, the media commented after the game. Hendry of "The Telegraph" said: The Christmas battle at Alkmaar was very difficult, almost every time
Every victory comes at the cost of an injured person. If the injuries to the two central defenders are serious injuries, Altidore's injury is brain-dead. If Jiang Mu doesn't solve this problem, the second half of this championship battle will be ruined.
Alkmaar will lose miserably."
Newman, the host of the 7:15 p.m. football program on NOS national TV, said: "Altidore's injury will test Jiang Mu's coaching ability. Before that, Alkmaar's victory was due to both Jiang Mu's magic and Dilk.
With the backing of money, now the weakness of small clubs has been exposed, that is, the thickness of their bench is too weak."
Jiang Mu naturally understands what the injuries to Altidore and the two central defenders mean to him. In the short term, there is only one game. It doesn't matter if he can't pass or not. He doesn't care about that record. After Christmas
Most of these injured players can return to the game. The important thing is, who can guarantee that no one will be injured again in the future? If there are widespread injuries in the second half of the season, there will be no winter break to buffer them.
The problem facing Jiang Mu now is where to find the second Altidore. Even if he can be found, how can he be integrated into the team as soon as possible? This is probably not an easy task. Jiang Mu is now more inclined to
Make tactical changes, remove the core, and eliminate the player who controls the rhythm.
There were only three days left before the last game before the winter break. Jiang Mu did not give his players a holiday. During training the next day, Jiang Mu asked Chang'e 1 to conduct data analysis on the players to see which player was the best player.
A suitable replacement for Altidore.
"Chang'e-1"'s powerful scanning and data analysis capabilities can be easily completed in one second, but Jiang Mu could not fully accept it in one second. When he fully understood the analysis of "Chang'e-1", he found that it was closer
It turned out that Altidore was not Klose as he imagined, but Van Bommel, and there was a huge difference between Klose and Altidore, who seemed to have similar personalities. This difference was that of Dutch football and German football.
the difference between.
Even though Van Bommel and Altidore were influenced by the same Dutch football and both played as midfielders, there is not much similarity between the two. Van Bommel's playing style is rough, his temper is violent, and he is old.
It’s too light. It’s okay to let him lead the rhythm for a period of time. It’s too difficult to control the whole game. If the opponent follows him and provokes him throughout the game, he won’t be as calm as Altidore. Once he gets a red card, the game will be in trouble again.
.
Jiang Mu thought again and again, but still gave up establishing a core to control the rhythm and offense. He decided to imitate Mourinho's Chelsea, abandon the core, focus on defensive counterattacks, and play impact football. Van Bommel was regarded as a pseudo-core, and he also took
The ball, but only in one direction of attack, the two wings will also attack.
However, Jiang Mu did not have time to train repeatedly. He could only talk about his ideas with the players and then strengthen them. As for the extent to which the players can master it, it can only rely on their understanding.
This is a helpless move, because establishing a bad core is worse than having no core. The players in Alkmaar's frontcourt all have strong personal abilities. The ball is given to them and they are allowed to lead and organize the attack. In theory, the tactics
It is feasible. As for the actual effect, this can only be known through competition.
On the first day of training, Alkmaar's players couldn't adapt. The back line's first goal when getting the ball was to find Altidore, so that Altidore could distribute the ball. But now that Altidore is injured, Jiang Mu
By handing over the task of "who should give the ball to" to the players, this actually places higher demands on defenders and midfielders.
Young players have a strong receptive ability. On the second and third days, the players' performance was much better. The ball was usually passed to Van Bommel in the middle. Van Bommel did not take the ball, but mainly passed it to Kloe in the frontcourt.
Zelai organizes the offense. He is more responsible for advancing the offense, while the full-backs take on the responsibility of the offense. They pass the ball to the midfielders and wingers in front, pass the ball themselves and follow up with assists, forming an independent line on the wing.
Line of attack.
Alkmaar's last opponent before the winter break was Vidis, who are now ranked fourth, overwhelming PSV and second only to Willem II, who emerged quietly.
It is said that due to the emergence of Alkmaar this season, all the football media have focused their attention on Alkmaar, but ignored other dark pony teams, because compared with Alkmaar, the dark horse, other teams
The team really doesn't matter.
In fact, if it were not for Alkmaar, it would have been William II who received the attention and exclamation this year.
The characteristic of this team this season is that it is stable. It almost loses against all teams that are stronger than him, but when it comes to teams that are weaker than him or at a similar level to him, Willem II basically never fails.
, they didn’t show mercy and basically won all the games. This is why their points are slowly rising, but few people are paying attention to them.
Vitesse ranks behind Alkmaar, Ajax, and Willem II. Although it is nearly 20 points behind Alkmaar, the fact that it can be ranked in this position shows their strength. Alkmaar is in
It can be said that it is bad luck to encounter Vidis during this period when we are short of major generals. If we encounter a weak team, we will have more than a month of winter break to train and replenish blood, but now Alkmaar also
All we can do is give it a try.
The last game was played at Alkmaar's Dehoot Stadium. This time Alkmaar will go to the eastern city of Arnhem to challenge Vidis.
In the last game before the winter break, not only Jiang Mu's Alkmaar was very cautious and hoped to win this tough battle. Vitis' head coach Bosz also hoped to take advantage of Alkmaar's full battalion of injured soldiers to report first place.
A round of revenge and a good Christmas.
Vidis is the only professional team in Arnhem, a small town in the east of the Netherlands, and their Gerredome is also the only football stadium in the city.
Vitis's fans are very loyal. In normal games, there are about 20,000 people watching the game. This powerful dialogue with Alkmaar attracted more than 30,000 fans to the scene, almost more than usual.
There were twice as many games, and the small town of Arnhem was packed with people to watch this game.
After the game started, Alkmaar's playing style shocked Vidis' head coach Bosz, because Alkmaar's starting lineup and playing style were very different from last time. It was just that the starting lineup was different.
, after all, so many main players were injured, but Alkmaar's style of play shocked Bosz.
If Alkmaar's style of play last time was just a change from the traditional Dutch style of play, then this time's style of play is completely different from the tradition of Dutch football.
Alkmaar’s starting lineup today is as follows: goalkeeper Cesar, four defenders: Kronkamp, Engel, Hoffs, Suleiman, two midfielders Van Bommel and Gattuso, and one attacking midfielder.
Klose, three forwards, Thomason in the middle, Kuyt and Drogba on both sides.
Van Bommel doesn't look like he's in the fourth position without the ball, and judging from the opening minutes, he certainly isn't either.
There is no high center, the center is Thomasson, an opportunist, and the real center Drogba has gone to the wing. Boss has no idea what Jiang Mu is selling.
The style of play is not total attack and total defense, but defensive counterattack.
He doesn't care much about controlling the ball, but pays more attention to controlling people.
Seeing Alkmaar's low-key defensive counterattack style, so disrespectful of face, Boss couldn't help but scream in admiration. He had to admire it, at least he couldn't be as free and easy as Jiang Mu, who could fight however he wanted.
No matter how you fight, it doesn't matter what other people think or say.
However, since the opponent gave up the right to control the ball and attack, Bosz would not be polite. He ordered his players to press forward to see how good the opponent's defense was.
It was the first time he served as the captain of the team and he also became one of the offensive organizers. Van Bommel was very excited. Vitis was Van Bommel’s blessing. His first goal after joining Alkmaar was against Vittorio
Diess scored, and he scored in the first minute. Van Bommel naturally hopes to perform well this time.
After the game started, Van Bommel had a dual task in the backcourt. On the one hand, he had to cooperate with Gattuso to steal, and on the other hand, he had to take on part of the organizational tasks. However, Van Bommel never tired of it, and he was very grateful that Jiang Mu valued him.
, without Jiang Mu, he would not have his current fame and income.
In the third minute of the game, Van Bommel stole the opponent's forward Nikos in the backcourt and knocked Nikos to the ground. However, the referee did not blow the whistle and believed that Van Bommel's steal was valid and there was no foul.
Van Bommel was overjoyed. He took two steps forward. When his teammates were ready, he immediately passed the ball to Klose, allowing Klose to organize the attack in the frontcourt. He rushed up to meet Klose.
Klose had a flash of inspiration. Instead of turning his back to catch the ball, he pretended to stop the ball and let the ball pass under his crotch. He turned sharply and shook off the midfielder that was close to his body.
Klose directly faced two central defenders. The central defender did not dare to turn around, so he could only face Klose sideways, waiting for an opportunity to step forward to steal.
But at this time Klose passed the ball to Thomason who was rushing forward at high speed.
At this time, the two central defenders had no time to turn around and defend, so they could only hope that their goalkeepers would perform well.
The goalkeeper quickly attacked to grab the ball, but Thomason had already fallen to the ground and tackled the ball. The ball flew under the goalkeeper's ribs and rolled into the net.
1:0, Alkmaar took the lead in the first three minutes.
Another fantastic start!
Last time they won a big victory with Van Bommel's lightning self-goal, will fate look after them the same way this time?
