January 1st is New Year's Day. If we were in China, everyone would have had a rest long ago. And China's professional leagues have already stopped.
Because the Chinese League is an annual event.
However, the English league is a New Year's Eve league. And the closer the holiday is, the more intensive the schedule is.
Two days ago, we just played the 24th round of the Anglo-African League. Two days later, on January 1, it will be the 25th round of the Anglo-African League.
Dagenham will play away to Chalifasi.
Halifax is currently only two places higher than Dagenham. It is five points more than Dagenham.
Su Yun's idea is very simple.
Without conceding the ball, it's best to steal one.
The defense is okay.
It's a pity that the offense is really not good. Dagenham is just like the last time it beat Brownsgrove, trying to beat Charlie Fas with random punches. But Hali Fas, regardless of the low ranking. But the thing he is least afraid of is
This kind of play.
Halifax, from its establishment in 1911 to the present, has always been in the lower leagues.
Really knows how to play in the lower leagues.
The pace of both sides was quite fast. Unfortunately, there were no exciting scenes.
Su Yun finally accepted a zero-to-zero ending.
At the end of the 25th round of the Anglo-African League, Dagenham scored 29 points.
…………
"Jack, this is your place."
After three rounds of suspension, Williams rested for more than 20 days. During these more than 20 days, Su Yun did not train Williams for a day.
Although Williams is a professional player, he can only train four times a week.
But these days, Su Yun didn't let him go.
Train six times a week.
Even if he is not training, Su Yun will ask Williams to come to the office to analyze the game.
Williams' suspension is now over.
Su Yun is finally going to transform Dagenham according to his own ideas. The transformation of Williams has also reached the final moment.
Su Yun drew Williams' position on the tactical board.
"Your responsibilities are simple. Defend and pass the ball. In this position, you don't let the ball pass you. After you get the ball, pass it out. It's that simple."
If someone else had said that, Williams would have sprayed it all over his face.
What is defense? Passing the ball is so simple.
Apart from defense and passing the ball, what else does a team have?
But when Su Yun said this, Williams listened.
Yes, it's that simple.
Don't let the ball pass by you. If you have the ball, just pass it out. Is it simple?
"Jack, football is actually very simple. If you think about it too complicated, that's not football. If you are in this position, find the opponent's weakness and pass the ball over, then you have completed the task. And it is perfect."
Williams nodded.
Su Yun did not put forward higher requirements for Williams.
Of course, Su Yun's expectations for Williams are far from simple. Su Yun hopes that Williams can become a dominant midfield player in the future. Albertini, Guardiola? No, Su Yun's expectations for Williams
higher.
Especially Williams, with his abnormal physical fitness and stamina.
Su Yun has a more intuitive understanding of Williams' physical strength through training with Williams these days.
With his physical strength, it should be normal for him to run 13,000 meters in a race. If he works harder, there won't be any problems even if he runs 14,000 meters or 15,000 meters.
If such physical strength is not fully mobilized, it will be a real loss.
However, Williams is still young now, just over 19 years old. He has just played the central position, so Su Yun can't do anything to encourage him.
"Head, most of what you showed me are from Serie A. Their ball is different from ours. The English and African leagues all have the kind of high and high ball, defending in the middle of the midfield, this..."
Williams watched most of Albertini's games. Albertini's defense relied more on his sense of position. Of course, Albertini was not a pure defensive player. But Albertini's
The defense is also excellent.
Unfortunately, Italian football and English football are two completely different systems of play.
Williams thinks that Albertini's defense and the defense in the English and African League are completely out of tune. It's just that they have been training these days and have no time to ask.
Only now did I ask.
"What I want you to learn is Albertini's defensive spirit."
Su Yun smiled.
"Defenses all over the world are actually the same. They deny the opponent the ball and threaten their own goal."
Su Yun admires those tactical masters. But Su Yun does not advocate too complicated tactics. Why do you need so many complicated tactics? Keep it simple. Especially for low-level teams like the British and African League. You and them
Talking about complicated tactics is of no use at all.
"I said you have the potential to be a superstar. Let me tell you about your greatest talent." Su Yun stepped forward and pushed Williams. "Look at your body. Your strong body is your greatest talent.
What’s so scary about high-altitude balls?”
"With your height of 1.87 meters, can't you still guard against high-altitude balls? What you have to do is to guard against the first point. You can't let the opponent's high center forward grab a comfortable header in front of the penalty area. Is this possible?
You don't know how?"
Talent doesn't just mean good technique, it means talent.
There are many types of talents.
Physical fitness is actually a kind of talent. It is the best, most basic and most important talent.
If the technique is not good, it can be practiced. If the consciousness is not good, it can be cultivated. It can be said that in football, acquired efforts can cultivate all factors of football. Technology, consciousness, etc.
But physical fitness is innate. This thing is completely a talent.
Williams had a treasure, but no one was discovering it.
Su Yun patted Williams on the shoulder.
"Boy, go up and play well. Play one game at a time and tell everyone how good you are."
The English league is really too intensive.
On January 1st, the twenty-fifth round was played, and only five days later, the twenty-sixth round was about to begin again.
On January 6, Dagenham challenged Kingdale Mister away from home.
Jingdah Mister has good strength in the Anglo-African League. It is currently ranked seventh in the Anglo-African League, only four points away from fifth place. If it enters the top five, it will be eligible for an promotion play-off.
qualifications.
At the beginning of this game, Su Yun wanted to try a new style of play.
In the English league, especially low-level leagues like the English and African League, there is simply no way to find a style of play that focuses on a core midfielder. In their style of play, players in the middle of the midfield are more likely to go straight up and down.
.
In the English-African League, you won't find any midfielder who controls the tempo of the game.
It's not just that the English-African League doesn't have this style of play. The bigger problem is that it can't find midfielders of this quality.
Now Su Yun wants to change everything.
Dagenham's defense and offense all revolve around Williams. The players on the back line no longer blindly take big shots, but hand them over to Williams in the middle. Then the offense is still
Defense is completely based on Williams' ideas.
For the British-African Federation, this tactic is completely subversive.
For Dagenham, it is also a disruptive change.
It's a pity that any tactical change cannot be achieved overnight. In the three games where Williams did not play, Dagenham played well. Because the foothold is to defend first, and if you can score a goal, you can score one.
Although this style of play is a little more passive, it is still easy to complete.
But the current way of playing is not so easy to accomplish.
In the away game, the new style of play obviously didn't work. Instead, Dagenham were scored two goals by Kingdale Mister.
Dagenham lost 2-0 away from home.
"Su, are we too hasty? This change should be done step by step."
Chavez frowned.
"No. No need." Su Yun shook his head. "Our team is now in this ranking. We have to change early or late. Jack, as long as he adapts to the game, what will happen to the English-African League?"
One player cannot replace a team.
But a superstar can bring fundamental changes to a team.
