In the victory over Bologna, Inter Milan once achieved good results with a 3-5-2 formation. In the first half, they gave the strong Bologna no room to perform. This made fans begin to feel that Inter Milan seemed to use this formation.
This tactic is also good, at least it can suppress the opponent better...
Unfortunately, what fans can feel is often an illusion. In fact, Dick knows that this can be done once or twice, but it cannot be done all the time. Otherwise, it will be very easy.
It is okay to use it occasionally as a tactical change if someone catches a loophole, but to be able to use it for a long time, only the 442 that has been well practiced in the pre-season training camp can have better continuity.
And in Dick's view, this tactic still has a lot of room for growth, especially with a few players who can play better and better. Only such a lineup has the strength to compete for the championship.
Juventus is terrible this season. Although their overall strength is not particularly outstanding and their substitute lineup has many weaknesses, their starting eleven is very strong, even though Dick did not let Cannavaro go.
Juventus, but their overall strength is still not weak, especially under the leadership of Capello, their ability to grab points is quite strong.
Capello is a head coach who is very good at playing in the league, but is a bit poor in cup games. It is precisely because of this that the results of Juventus led by him in the European competition are average, but the results in the league are so good.
despair……
Three days later, Inter Milan ushered in their twelfth round opponent, the Sardinian team Cagliari.
Cagliari is also a very difficult team in Serie A. Now they have former Italian international Zola - after ending his contract at Chelsea, veteran Zola rejected Abramovich's offer to stay and chose to return home. Now he is in
Cagliari also performed very well and was always able to play beautiful football. Cagliari's front trident was quite strong. Although in this game, Honduras international Suazo was injured and unable to play, but Espoo
The attacking power of the trident of Sito, Zola and Rangeela cannot be underestimated. The trident formed by these three people has scored quite a lot of goals. Cagliari can now rank in the middle. The offense of these three people
Ability plays a big role.
"Zola is a great star. He was already famous when I was a child... It's just that we are opponents now, and I don't want my team to lose points in Sardinia...
It just so happens that our offense is also very strong, so we can compare and see whether the new Inter Milan's offense is better or Cagliari's offense is better."
Dick didn't seem to bother to hide the tactics he was going to use before the game started, but the media were warning: "Don't be fooled by this guy! He will always pretend to attack in such situations but actually
As a defensive counterattacker, he has done this many times in Spain, and he also did it against AC Milan in the league... Cagliari, don't be fooled!"
The Italian media reminded Cagliari as if they had taken medicine. However, after the game started, they discovered that they seemed to be treating a gentleman with a villain's heart...
There are no changes in Inter Milan's starting lineup, and there are no changes in tactics...
From the beginning, Inter Milan used an extremely ferocious attack and almost stunned Cagliari.
In fact, Cagliari's tactics this season are very simple. The frontcourt offense relies on the trident, and the backcourt defense relies on the other seven people. So far, they have scored 12 goals in the eleven rounds of the league, all of which are the frontcourt trident.
Although they tried their best to defend, they also conceded fifteen goals...
So in fact, although their current ranking is not bad, that is because they can always achieve small wins and grab points quite well, but on both ends of the offense and defense, they are not particularly outstanding.
It is precisely because of this that Dick asked Inter Milan to attack aggressively in the away game, trying to let the team win the game by scoring goals. Maybe they will still lose a lot of goals, but this can always be done.
Score a lot of goals in the game, but it can create a kind of momentum for the team. It can be as strong as it wants in offense, and it can not be discouraged even if it loses the ball in defense...
From the beginning of the game, Inter Milan launched a crazy attack, constantly attacking from the center to create opportunities. At the same time, the midfielder also ran to support each other, and then split the opponent's defense through back and forth passes.
Although there is a center like Toni, Inter Milan has never played on the wing. Their two full-backs are more like free men, retreating to the midfielder position when defending, and then attacking when attacking.
Sometimes he pushes against the winger, sometimes he pushes into the penalty area. This style of play is more flexible and makes it impossible to defend.
Only eight minutes into the game, Inter Milan tore apart Cagliari's defense through a series of passes in the frontcourt. First, Stankovic advanced and then passed the ball to Pandev. Pandev turned around with the ball, but knocked the ball away.
It was given to Perrotta who came in from the left. Perrotta raised his foot and went straight into the penalty area. Adriano relied on his physical advantage to get the ball in front of the opponent's defender. Then he turned around and passed the ball to the penalty area with his foot.
On the other side of the inside, Toni pushed the ball forward, and the ball flew into the goal. One to zero, Inter Milan took the lead in the away game!
Dick nodded off the court. He was very happy with Adriano's current performance because there was not much pressure on him. Therefore, although Adriano scored a lot of goals, Dick did not let him down.
His teammates just pass the ball to him and then create opportunities - this is the simplest approach and the most irresponsible approach.
Although Adriano is known as the King in history, his most glorious moment in Inter Milan was in the first half of this season. He scored 14 goals in 16 rounds of the league almost alone and without help.
However, in the second half of the season, he only scored two goals. This is because that style of play relies too much on personal ability. Once the opponent tries desperately to block his goals, the performance of the entire team will be affected. Now Adria
Although Adriano has not scored as many goals as he has in history, others have also scored a lot, which makes Adriano's status seem less high - in fact, this is a good thing for Ade.
There are many reasons for Ade's fall, and Dick has also studied this. Especially after he decided to become the head coach of Inter Milan, he knew that no matter what, he needed to solve this problem.
Later generations generally believe that it was after the death of Ade's father that Ade became degenerate. His life had no purpose and pursuit, and he immediately began to choose indulgence. However, in fact, Ade's father's illness was
It has been there for a long time. There is a bullet in his head, which is a time bomb. Whenever something goes wrong and he dies, Ade will be mentally prepared. It is not enough for him to be so decadent just because of his father's death.
To make people believe.
Through careful research and reflection, Dick came to a rather bold conclusion.
Ade's fall was due to pressure, not lack of motivation.
In the half season when Inter Milan performed well, Adriano's performance was regarded as the world's best forward, but his results were quite poor - under the leadership of Mancini that season, Inter Milan was ranked first in the first half of the season.
The season has been almost like a plague of constant draws. You can be equalized by your opponent if you are two goals ahead, and you can come back if you are two goals behind. No matter what opponent you face, you have never lost, but the gap is getting wider and wider in the league.
...And not only that season, Inter Milan also performed very well in the following season, but they ran into a Juventus team that set a points record, and Inter Milan was also constantly blocked by black whistles. In this
Under such circumstances, Adriano, who carries the hopes of all Inter Milan fans, begins to feel that he is under a lot of pressure, because he has performed extremely well, but still has no hope of winning the championship...
In this case, when he could not help Inter Milan win the championship no matter how well he performed, Adriano was immediately confused. He didn't know what he should do before returning to Inter Milan.
His ambition has become an unattainable goal, coupled with various other factors - the annual salary of several million euros allows him to live without worries, the death of his father has left him with no target to talk to, and his teammates
He just passed the ball to him on the court... You know, even if everyone thinks he is a better king than Vieri, when he came to Inter Milan, he was only a 22-year-old young man! Vieri
Vieri has been able to sustain it for so long because he is mature enough, and Vieri has always had talents and hopes like Ronaldo around him, so that he will not bear so much pressure, but what about Adriano?
Does he have such teammates who can share the load?
After Calciopoli, Inter Milan ushered in a renaissance. An outstanding player like Ibrahimovic was willing to accept the status of the Green Leafs and come to join. However, the Adriano at that time was no longer the Adriano in 2004.
He has begun to decline, his body has become bloated, and his mentality has also undergone huge changes. In the end, Ibrahimovic was beaten from a green leaf to a red flower. The better Ibrahimovic played, the greater the pressure on Adriano, so much so that he proposed
The request to return to Brazil to play football eventually parted ways with Inter Milan and became strangers to each other.
After figuring this out, Dick felt that he needed to avoid such a situation in various ways - delaying Adriano's arrival at Inter Milan for half a year, not only because he was worried that his performance in that half of the season was too good
I can't suppress him after that, but I want him not to become the object of too much attention from Inter Milan fans. Being too dependent on him will destroy him.
In tactics, he will still let him be the main force and the core, and attack around him, but his importance will be reduced a lot, and there will be more people around him to help him. When he gets the ball, Tony will help him.
He attracts firepower, there are people on both wings to support him, and there are people around him to help... If this continues, Adriano will know that he is in a strong whole, his teammates must rely on him, and he must also rely on his teammates.
This feeling of mutual dependence is actually very important, especially for a player like Adriano who looks tough but is actually a little fragile inside.
Although this painstaking effort will not be known to others, and others do not know how Adriano will degenerate in the future, it is enough for Dick to know it himself.
