In the 19th round of the Anglo-African League, Su Yun played at home in Dagenham for the first time.
The Victoria Road Stadium, which has a capacity of 6,000 people, only had 2,000 people come today. After all, it is a team in the fifth tier of English league, and the number of people cannot be compared with the Premier League and English League One. But even so, the fans
Not too little.
Just a semi-professional team.
It is already extraordinary to have two thousand fans paying money to watch the game. Two thousand people are no longer a small number. In China, even in the A-League, the number of spectators at some teams' games is not much.
Twenty thousand people.
A and B are even more bleak.
A team that can have 10,000 spectators is a very powerful club.
Now this is a team in the fifth level league. There are two thousand fans at the scene, which is not easy. These are real die-hard fans.
They also learned that the team had a new coach.
A coach they didn’t even know. Of course, with Dagenham’s current status, they couldn’t hire any great coach. But hiring a coach from China really made them confused.
China?
I heard that China has developed a lot recently and has become richer. But what does it have to do with football?
Chinese football?
Have they won any championships? Have they entered the World Cup?
Maybe they actually made it to the World Cup. But they definitely didn’t achieve good results, otherwise they wouldn’t have heard about it. They have never heard about football in China.
Therefore, they were very unfavorable towards Su Yun. They even had some contempt for him.
How dare a person from Asia and a football desert dare to coach an English club?
But they are still curious.
What's wrong with the club? They hired a head coach from China.
"Karl, don't you have news from the club? Tell me where this kid came from." The two thousand people sitting here are all die-hards of the club. Many of them have supported Dagenham for their ancestors.
Teams from before the merger.
After the merger, I became a fan of Dagenham.
Because of this, most of the nearly two thousand people know each other. Even if they can't name each other, they all know that they are Dagenham fans.
At this time, everyone was looking at the person sitting in the middle.
"Yes, Carl."
"Tell me how this kid got here."
Everyone was talking about it.
Everyone despises him, but they are all very curious. What does Su Yun do? What did he do before? How did he get to the club and become the head coach.
Gossip is not just for women.
Everyone has a tendency to gossip.
The man named Karl wore glasses and was polite. He didn't speak until the end. "I don't know either? I just know that the new head coach used to be a coach in the second-tier league in China.
It was the Holland family who parachuted into the club directly. No one in the club knew his specific origins."
Hearing what Karl said, everyone became even more curious.
"Shit!"
"China's second level league? He should go to the regional league to coach."
…………
It was Su Yun's first time directing a game at Victoria Road Stadium, but he didn't feel any nervousness.
It's only the fifth tier of English football.
No matter what Su Yun says, he has also been a head coach in Class A and Class B.
It's just a bit disappointing. Watching the videos of the Premier League, English League One and even some English League Two, Su Yun found that the English fans are very fanatical. The last time I went to the home court of Taiford, the Taiford fans were also very fanatical. Although the number was a little smaller,
But the cheers were still quite loud.
But when I came to the Victoria Road Stadium today, I didn't hear many cheers.
Su Yun knew that these fans did not welcome him.
But Su Yun didn't care.
At the beginning of this game, Su Yun will make some new attempts. Su Yun must prepare how to adapt to English football. Su Yun must first test the defense and how to defend English football.
The important thing should be to control the first point.
But controlling the first point is not that easy. After all, English clubs basically have centers with excellent headers. So Su Yun is not thinking about controlling the first point, but how to control the second point.
Nowadays, the players in the British-African League have relatively poor basic skills.
According to Su Yun's observation, the most typical one is poor stopping of the ball. Su Yun wants to take advantage of this weakness to defend.
Su Yun completely followed his own ideas and began to transform the team.
Welling FC is currently ranked 19th in the Anglo-African League. Like Dagenham, it is a weak team in the Anglo-African League. Even weaker than Dagenham.
But after the game started, Welling was not conservative at all.
As Su Yun expected, there was no difference between Welling's style of play and Telford's style of play. It was the kind of high-flying style.
Almost all English teams, especially those in lower-level leagues, play this style of play. Su Yun has only been in England for half a month, and he already fully understands the style of play in Serie A.
Definitely not popular in England.
And English clubs won't give you a chance to be slow.
The pace of the game is too fast.
Su Yun's defensive adjustments are still very effective. Su Yun uses one person to hold up the center, and then uses another defender and midfielder to control the second point. Su Yun's changes effectively curbed Welling's offense.
Su Yun himself also understood that this was because Wei Ling's offense was so poor.
But the problem now is that Welling's offense can be defended, but his own offense cannot be produced. Su Yun also wants to play that simple style of play. For a semi-professional team, you cannot ask for more complex tactics.
But Dagenham's offense always failed to hit the target.
The quality of the passes in the backcourt is also too poor. The two wingers are always unable to play. If the two wings cannot be played, this offense has no threat at all.
Jack Williams, who Su Yun has high hopes for, really worked hard during the game. But on the wing, many of his weaknesses were undoubtedly exposed. Although he has strong explosive power, he does not have absolute speed, and his skills are not very delicate.
Seriously restricting Jack Williams' ability to attack on the wing.
But the defense was very good.
But what Su Yun wants is not a full midfielder who can defend, but an offensive midfielder who can create threats.
Su Yun really doesn’t know what to do about Jack Williams?
To say he is a genius, his abilities are too poor and his performance is not good at all.
They say he is not a genius, but the number 196 clearly tells Su Yun that this is a rare genius player in world football.
The game was very dull.
Welling's offense was very poor and the turnover rate was very serious. Coupled with Dagenham's targeted defense, they were unable to find a good opportunity. But Dagenham's offense was even more unfavorable. In one game, it was simply
Not many shooting opportunities.
In his second game as coach in England, Su Yun could only accept a 0-0 draw.
Su Yun is reviewing.
What should be done?
How should we attack and what attack method should we choose?
Jack Williams, how should we train this talented player?
Until now, Su Yun has not seen anything worth cultivating in Jack Williams. This makes Su Yun very distressed.
