In the game against Team C, we didn’t see many problems.
But when August entered, Chang Sheng saw a problem during the game after playing a game against the Portuguese team Leca.
He was quite satisfied with the team's defense. Faced with the indiscriminate bombardment from the Portuguese second-tier league team, they did not concede a goal.
But when I fight back, it is always not smooth enough, as if there is no lubricant, and it keeps getting stuck one after another.
Because it was a warm-up match, this situation was not prominent. After both sides, especially Getafe, changed their lineups extensively, this feeling disappeared.
Even Chang Sheng couldn't figure it out. Maybe it was an accident or accidental, or it was caused by the fact that the new players were not familiar enough after joining the team and the tacit understanding was not high enough.
Although he felt there was a problem, he didn't pay much attention to it.
I just hope that as the training progresses, everyone, especially the new players, will deepen their understanding of this tactic and their tacit understanding will increase, this situation will further improve.
But he always felt something was wrong...
It was as if there was something he hadn't thought of.
※※※
In the third warm-up match, everything went well. The Getafe team's strength increased, which surprised Getafe fans who came to watch the game. Getafe's defense was more solid, and its offense was sharper than before.
In the end, Getafe defeated the visiting Portuguese team Beiramar 2:0 at home.
When every fan left the Alfonso Perez Stadium, they were in high spirits and full of confidence in the team's new season.
The results in several warm-up matches have proven Chang Sheng's ability as a head coach. It was no fluke that he led the team to avoid relegation in the last ten league rounds last season.
With such a young and promising head coach leading the team, they should not be struggling to avoid relegation this season!
After the game, "Getafe Local Life" also spent a lot of time reporting on the game. The outstanding performance of several foreign players was the focus of everyone's attention.
Although Senna has always been very low-key in the team. Fans don't know much about him, but he has proved his ability with his performance on the court. It proves that Changsheng's purchase of him is not just a slap on the head.
As a Brazilian player, he has technical advantages, but what is more important is his toughness in defense. Although his movements are not big, he has a good grasp of the timing of steals, and the success rate of interceptions is therefore very high.
In addition to defense, he can also shoulder the task of organizing offense.
You must know that in a winning tactic, the transition from defense to offense mainly relies on the midfielder.
So Senna's performance was perfect.
"Getafe Local Life" has believed that Senna's performance in these three warm-up games has fully proved his ability to get opportunities in the new season.
Last season, Getafe's three midfielders were Gimenez, Carlos Campo and Pulido.
Now it seems that Pulido may be replaced by Senna.
The performance of Yaya Toure, another new defensive midfielder, also exceeded everyone's expectations. At first, everyone thought that such a 17-year-old boy had what abilities he had. However, Toure performed very maturely.
Although he doesn't have much playing time, people who are interested have already seen his potential.
"Getafe Local Life" believes that this will be an excellent deal made by Chang Sheng. Yaya Toure is not worth a lot of money now, but his future worth is hard to say.
As for Charisteas, Mista, Luis Garcia and Balzaretti, they all received more or less favorable reviews.
It seems that Getafe's pre-season training is going well and the new season has a bright future.
Even the coaches within the Getafe team hold this view.
Several players purchased by Chang Sheng Zhuang performed unexpectedly well, which really surprised them.
Mista and Luis Garcia are both okay. They are still Spanish players after all, and everyone knows them somewhat.
But Charisteas, Senna, Yaya Toure, and Balzaretti are very discerning.
Unexpectedly, Chang Sheng’s vision was quite good.
"Getafe Local Life" used this to once again criticize Moscow for its poor judgment and recruitment.
Moscow was so angry that he tore up Getafe Local Life in his office and vowed that when he returned to power in the future, he would ban all reporting rights of this newspaper in Getafe.
※※※
Everyone is quite optimistic about Getafe's journey in the new season.
Except for winning.
In the game against Beiramar, Chang Sheng again saw the phenomenon of unsmooth offense. Although it did not last long due to substitutions, he still noticed it.
Is this a coincidence?
I'm afraid it can no longer be explained so simply.
Is it caused by insufficient tacit understanding?
Is it caused by the players, especially the new players, not understanding the new tactics enough?
But it's already mid-August. After nearly a month of training, the level of tacit understanding will always increase, right? There will always be a time when you become familiar with this tactic, right?
So far, there has been no progress at all!
Moreover, I also smashed three training skills during training!
With the help of training skills, there is only a big or small difference in progress, there is absolutely no difference between having it or not.
But now it seems that it is not what Chang Sheng thought.
He scanned every player with his golden eye, and the training skills really worked.
Each player's attributes have been improved to varying degrees.
But tactics will not become smoother as player attributes improve.
So there must be problems.
Now the victory has been confirmed. It’s not a coincidence, it’s not an accident, it’s not a lack of tacit understanding, or a different level of understanding of tactics...
Something just went wrong.
If this problem is not resolved, the performance in the new season may be affected.
The intensity of warm-up matches and the level of attention everyone attaches to them are completely different from formal matches.
※※※
The most important role of the warm-up match in pre-season training is to adjust the player's condition, as well as to identify and solve problems.
Otherwise, Changsheng would not follow the league model, arranging one warm-up match a week, and the game would be on Saturday or Sunday.
It is to allow the players to re-adapt to the rhythm of the league.
Now he knows there is a problem, but he still doesn't know what the problem is, let alone how to solve it.
August 19th was the fourth and last warm-up match of Getafe’s summer training period.
Getafe faced Macheco, also from Portugal, at home.
Tickets for this game are still on sale, and fans are welcome to come and watch.
The ticket revenue from the warm-up matches can somewhat alleviate the economic crisis facing Getafe. But if the winning team had not performed well and the interest of Getafe fans has greatly increased, perhaps this summer, Moscow's financial ledger will be even worse.
dismal.
Because of Getafe's outstanding performance in the previous warm-up matches, more than 5,000 fans came to the Alfonso Pérez Stadium, which is already an impressive attendance for a warm-up match.
Amid the cheers of the fans, Getafe's performance in the first half was normal, both defensively and offensively.
Everyone on the bench and coaching bench was relaxed, except for the winning team.
He was so nervous that he stared at the court, trying to find any clues.
But until the end of the first half, he could not see any irregularities in the offense.
In the first half, he deployed mostly new players in the defensive lineup, while the offensive team used the old combination from last season, with center Balado and two wingers Keku and Popovich.
As a result, Getafe did not concede a goal in the first half and even scored a goal. The score was temporarily leading 1:0. The player who scored the goal was Popovich.
After the break, Getafe replaced all eleven players.
The defense line was replaced by the old players from last season, while the offensive line was completely opposite, replaced by newcomers who joined this season.
Charisteas, Luis Garcia and Mista are in action.
When Chang Sheng was expecting this to be the performance of that person with great hope, the feeling of unsmooth offense appeared again!
Chang Sheng frowned as he watched from the sidelines.
What the fuck is going on?
He began to squint and observe carefully. His eyes were like a scanner, scanning back and forth.
Charles Teas' performance is normal. He is a center forward. When the team attacks, he has to be in front of the goal. He cannot just move outside the penalty area and go to the wing.
Mista is responsible for capturing the open space, looking for scoring opportunities under the cover of Charles Thias. Most of the time, he does not take the ball, so the lack of smooth offense should have little to do with the two of them.
Then...only Luis Garcia is left.
Chang Sheng stared at Luis Garcia for a while, and finally he found the crux of the problem.
Right on Luis Garcia!
So what specifically causes Luis Garcia to have problems here?
Chang Sheng decided to do an experiment.
Taking advantage of a dead ball opportunity, he asked someone to pass the message to the entire team on the sidelines. When attacking, he always gave the ball to Luis Garcia instead of passing it to others.
Then he stood on the sidelines, waiting to see the result.
Luis Garcia is very happy about this change in the team. He thinks this is a test for himself by the head coach. As long as he passes the test, he will naturally be reused by the head coach.
So he worked harder on the court.
Cycling, croquettes, heels... He showed off his excellent foot skills from La Masia.
But Getafe's offense became even less smooth.
Chang Sheng saw it.
When the football was at the feet of Luis Garcia, it seemed as if it had rolled into a quagmire, and the speed of the attack slowed down.
It wasn't obvious before, but it became much more obvious when he asked his players to pass the football directly to Garcia on offense.
Chang Sheng never expected that Luis Garcia's outstanding foot skills, which he valued, would become a rope that hindered the team's offense... (To be continued...)
