In fact, in the four games played since the World Cup, except for the game against Nigeria after qualifying early, Aldrich's adjustments to the team in the other three games were all offensive, that is, counterattack routines, which he put to good use.
McManaman, the England team's counterattack has a magical effect. The chapter is updated the fastest
But for defense, he basically didn't make even one adjustment. It can be said that what England's defensive system was like in the second half of the World Cup preliminaries will be what it will be like in the World Cup.
Because they are based on defense, when designing this system, they have done their best to maximize the fault tolerance rate.
Therefore, England does not need to predict what formation the opponent will play or how the technical and tactical system will operate.
This is the advantage of being defensive. No matter who the opponent is or how the attack changes, the England team will strike from behind. It is like two armies fighting. One side puts up a shield formation first, and then removes the shield when the other side fails to charge.
Crazy fight back.
This is the stability that England is praised for by the outside world: no matter whether the wind blows from east to west, north to south, I will remain unmoved.
But there are also a lot of criticisms. Modern football encourages offense, and England's style of "getting beaten first and then fighting back" is really disgusting!
It is difficult to attack and easy to defend. This is the normal state of the football field. Especially the active attacking side always has to bear higher defensive risks. Therefore, Italy's football philosophy has been criticized by many people as negative football and anti-football. The same is true for England, even if it leaves sadly.
In Argentina during the World Cup, there are still many voices supporting Bielsa's "attack or die" offensive football.
Gunesh deployed two forwards today, and after the game started, the two forwards took on the task of playing in the active area. They were indeed the forwards. This made Aldrich happy.
It can be seen that Türkiye has ideas about the game and does not have the idea of dragging it into overtime and then having a penalty shootout when facing England.
Otherwise, Gunes will never double up as a forward, but will add a defender or a midfielder to face England with the same absolutely defensive attitude.
The English players on the field have thoroughly integrated the philosophy Aldridge instilled in them, not just a theoretical understanding. They have applied it in the game with ease.
Defense is the foundation. After successful defense, grasping the rhythm difference and hitting the opponent to counterattack, first of all, it is the grasp of the opportunity, the heat has reached a satisfactory level, and secondly, the group cooperation during the counterattack, methodical, rarely see players being beaten again.
They showed panic when pressing closely, which further improved their team's success rate of passing and receiving. In the game statistics, if the game with Nigeria is not included, England's average passing success rate in the other three games was
The rate is the highest among all participating teams in this World Cup!
Turkey was still very afraid of England's counterattack from the beginning. When attacking, the formation did not dare to press too much. Although it was 352, it was more like 532 in the first 20 minutes. The two sides of the midfield basically did not dare to assist. When attacking, Turkey relied on Bath
Turk and Emre moved forward in the midfield, and then the two forwards interspersed their movements to look for opportunities.
With only four people pressing up, it was really difficult to shake the English team's defense, and they didn't even have a reliable shot. Once the English team succeeded in defending, Turkey's formation immediately shrank, and the midfielder and backfield immediately engaged in man-to-man defense.
Why is it said that England's offense and defense are balanced and relaxed?
Because they will not counterattack blindly, nor will they counterattack immediately after a successful defense. This is a kind of overall rhythm control, based on observing the game situation and reflecting the ability to read the game.
If the teammates in the frontcourt do not move in place and there is not enough space, if they rush to counterattack, the opponent may seize the opportunity to counterattack. Therefore, when Turkey's defense is tense and there is no trouble, the England team is not in a hurry. After the defense is successful, it is not
Go fast, take things slowly
Even if Turkey's overall formation puts up a tight defense in the midfield and backfield, the England team will not be confused or helpless. When the situation stabilizes, they can launch an attack cleanly. If it succeeds, they will not be discouraged if it fails. At least, they will not give up.
A good opportunity for the opponent to counterattack.
The regular game time is 90 minutes. In these 90 minutes, not only team skills and tactics are competed, but also team mentality. The stronger the player, the more calm and patient they will be.
Just like Aldridge standing on the sidelines, there is no sign of any psychological fluctuations in his expression. The team's defense and offense cannot move him.
But Gunesh, after 30 minutes, seemed a little unable to sit still.
The England team's style of play itself makes opponents wary, because it is difficult to predict when the England team will exert its strength, and Turkey is weak on paper, so it has to spend more physical energy to make up for it, just like the England team only successfully defended and stabilized.
After steadily controlling the ball and before launching an attack, Turkey's midfielders and frontcourt players were already running towards the backcourt with both legs. Players in the backcourt who were not involved in the attack also sounded the alarm and observed the position of England's frontcourt players.
Move quickly to set up a defensive line.
It has to be said that there is another figure in the England team that no opponent can ignore.
Aldrich Hall!
Gunes could not figure out what tactical instructions Aldridge would give England.
If England doesn't play fast, will it kill Türkiye?
England itself has a physical advantage. The main players on the field played one less game than the Turkish players and rested for two more days. They exhausted themselves in the first half and then went all out to attack in the second half. This is a very normal tactic.
ideas.
In addition to this, Gunesh is also worried about whether Aldridge has any hidden killer skills, just like when he played against Argentina, Ashley Cole seemed to appear out of nowhere and became the best player in the game, killing his opponent by surprise.
!
No matter how you look at it, Türkiye's fate seems very passive.
Gunesh frequently turned his head to observe Aldridge, as if he wanted to get a clue from the young coach's expression. In the 31st minute of the game, his eyes suddenly widened and he saw Aldridge taking advantage of a dead ball to call Beckham in front of him.
, and ordered something with a serious face.
What will you say?
Gunesh was eager to sneak up to Aldrich and eavesdrop.
Aldrich just felt that Türkiye's overall offensive and defensive performance today was pretty good, which meant that the opponent's defense in the midfield and backfield was balanced and tight.
He began to use some of the court command techniques that he had already mastered to see what kind of effect it would have.
After listening carefully, Beckham nodded and accepted the order. He found an opportunity to say a few words to McManaman in the court.
McManaman smiled broadly after hearing this.
His reaction made Xiao Bei slightly distracted and surprised.
If the England team is competing in this World Cup, who is the most relaxed in the team? It is definitely McManaman.
In the past, he was a hot guy, like a handsome young man with angry horses. He was very majestic, but in the football circle, he was disliked by others. Now, he restrains himself off the court. Instead, he relaxes on the court and is inserted by Aldridge.
The poodle with a pair of wings can swim freely in the venue and enjoy the scenery!
In the quarter-finals, what a tense game, but McManaman seemed a little, a little cynical.
He just heard the tactical instructions conveyed by Beckham to Aldridge, and he was inspired by it and turned into a smile.
This feeling makes him enjoy it very much. The generals work together and the coach makes plans. The players work hard and play with their opponents to win the game and move to a higher place!
In the following time, England's offense shifted obviously to the right, and McManaman seemed to be fixed on the right side of the frontcourt.
When Aldridge issues tactical instructions, he doesn't need to tell every player about them. The key points will come into play and the whole team can execute them.
The outside world has repeatedly emphasized that Aldrich activated McManaman, and the reason is that in the frontcourt offense, McManaman affects the whole body.
Without McManaman, Scholes and Irving, no matter how they move, how they cooperate, and the connection between the two points, it is impossible to produce more changes, and it will only become monotonous and rigid.
But with McManaman, he is the engine that drives this trio. When he goes to the left, Scholes will lean to the left. Owen also maintains contact distance with him in front, and he goes to the right.
,Similarly, the local connections between the three people will not be ,obviously blocked.
Now that McManaman has gone to the right, Scholes is naturally closer to this side, and there will be more changes in the offense. Although there are some deviations, such as the lack of space for Beckham who assists, the other side
Lampard has a broader stage. After Beckham or Phil Neville comes up, McManaman remains in the same position. It is Scholes who turns into a shadow striker and rushes to the front line. England's offense
Gradient and layering can still be well reflected.
Gunes found that the England team frequently created threats on the right, and he felt an ominous feeling in his heart.
In the first 30 minutes, England's offense was well restrained by Turkey. Türkiye didn't have many chances, and neither did England. Everyone was evenly matched.
But England suddenly focused on playing on the right. Under frequent attacks, Türkiye's defense on the left was a bit overwhelming.
Gradually, Türkiye's defense will definitely tilt to the left and be led by England's main attack direction.
Ergon on the left side of the midfield was almost beaten!
He retreated to occupy the full-back area, and McManaman, Beckham or Phil Neville took advantage of the right side of the midfield. If he didn't retreat and McManaman rushed forward, he would directly
Arriving in front of the back line, it was wavering between up and down. Ergon's defense was in a panic and he could only ask his teammates to support him.
This was also the first on-the-spot command adjustment Aldrich made after seeing the characteristics of Türkiye's offensive configuration.
The positions of Basturk and Emre are exactly separated from Tuguet in the middle. In other words, during the attack, Turkey is actually in a 3322 formation. Once Emre attacks, England counterattacks on the right, and Ergon
The distance from Tuguet is too far, and the positioning distribution seems reasonable, but there is a lack of key protection. When England concentrates their firepower on the right, they want to make up for the defense on this side. If the defender dares not to move, Tuguet is the only one!
In the 38th minute, Tugai moved over in advance to help defend.
McManaman, who was waiting for the opponent to do this, passed the ball back to Beckham without hesitation, and Beckham passed the ball across to the other side.
The ball was passed behind Basturk, and a figure was seen striding forward.
Who?
Ashley Cole!
Playing against an opponent with 3 or 5 backs, Ashley Cole already has experience. He didn't go wide at all. If he went wide, wouldn't he collide with the opponent's wide player Davala?
He walked inside, even close to the middle. After he passed Basturk and got the ball in the frontcourt, Turkey's backcourt defense, in front of Ashley Cole, only had the back line!
Most of the defensive midfielders were on the right side, and he dribbled the ball forward at high speed.
Gunesh was frightened on the sidelines and blurted out, roaring: "Stop him! Stop him even if he commits a foul!"
God knows what kind of lethality Ashley Cole, who does not follow common sense and has begun to understand the true meaning of "changing forwards", can create when he reaches the back line! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster !
