Chapter 42

(one)

The warm-up match record was poor, with 1 win, 2 draws and 1 loss in the first four rounds, which was not satisfactory. Allegri was under great pressure, but the stubborn Allegri still insisted on his own adjustments and adjustments.

The home game against satellite team Genoa was regarded by Gazzetta dello Sport as Allegri's "bottoming out" battle. They only accumulated 5 points in four rounds. This is probably Milan's worst start in the past decade.

, Let’s just talk about the past few seasons. In the first four rounds of last season, Milan had 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. In the 2009 season, it was 2 wins and 2 losses. In the 2007 season, it was 1 win and 3 draws.

The 0607 season was 3 wins and 1 loss, both of which were better than the start of this season.

In terms of lineup integration, Milan's progress is not ideal. The Greek player Papa who performed well in Genoa has been on the bench for two rounds. Ronaldinho, the "offensive genius with the ball" who is used to not running without the ball, has started all the games.

He has never played a full game. The fastest time was when he was substituted after halftime. The longest time he played was the first game, which lasted about 75 minutes.

What troubles Milan fans the most is Pirlo. This "soul player" discovered in the Ancelotti era has started every game and played the entire game in the first four rounds, but his ability to perform is limited.

Especially when the entire Serie A collectively launched "Snatch Pirlo" as a "sure-kill move" against Milan and it worked repeatedly, Pirlo's nickname has unknowingly become "Sleeping Skin", which means "Sleeping Skin".

Sleeping Pirlo".

There is another change, that is, Pato, who is extremely fast and has superb shooting skills, has almost been pushed to the bench by Robinho. The reason is very simple, because Pato's running route involuntarily collided with Ibrahimovic.

Che, when he was on the court, he was not in sync with striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The only victory in the four rounds, a 4:0 victory over newly promoted Lecce in the first game, was also the farewell game of the "Trident" last season. With Borriello's transfer and departure, Pato sat on the bench.

, Ronaldinho only played half of the game, and Pirlo was sleeping. Milan, led by Allegri, was still in a low position.

(two)

For the tenacious Allegri, he insists on his tactical philosophy unwaveringly. As for the current downturn, Allegri understands that this is the "pain" in the transformation. After all, the set of tactics with Pirlo as the core

France was the glory of 2003 and 2007, but the all-round "controlling, passing and shooting" forwards Kaká and Shevchenko who cooperated with Pirlo are no longer there.

One of the original ideas was to introduce Ibrahimovic, a forward who is in line with the all-round characteristics of "controlling the ball, passing and shooting", and forming a "dual core" with Pirlo, with Ronaldinho and Robinho running between the two cores.

In connection, Pato and Abate are more likely to use their speed to provide support, creating space and openings for Ibrahimovic.

However, Allegri's idea was officially declared aborted by the end of the fourth round. Ronaldinho would not run no matter how he arranged it, Pato collided with Ibrahimovic as soon as he ran, and Pirlo's "look, slow, and pass" experience

This triggered the "rush" trend throughout Serie A. Except for the first game, in the next three games, Ronaldinho, Pato and even Pirlo in the tactical system all became "colanders" for opponents to break through!

After 1 loss and 2 draws, Allegri finally made a gamble-like decision. In fact, all decisions are trade-offs, and what you take is what you give.

AC Milan's starting lineup for this round of games, Gasperini only saw it on the afternoon of the match day, about two or three hours before the game. This also shows that it is not easy for Allegri to make this decision.

Milan's starting goalkeeper is still Abbiati, left back Antonini, right back Abate, center backs Nesta and Thiago Silva, and the four midfielders are Gattuso, Pirlo, Boateng and West Ham.

Dov, the two forwards are Robinho and Ibrahimovic.

In this game, former World Footballer and Milan's absolute main force Ronaldinho was put on the bench by Allegri. Ronaldinho was not announced to be injured in advance. It was absolutely abnormal!

(three)

"Except for Pirlo, Milan's starting lineup today is composed of 'Muscular Man' and 'Undead'. Although it is unbelievable to put a talented player like Ronaldinho on the bench, Allegri is still

This was done, and it was not Allegri who was put on the bench.

This is the first genius he has ever played. Pato has been on the bench for two games, and Papa has also been hidden by him!" Gasperini paused, raised his chin, and asked about changing clothes.

The team members sitting in the room said: "Of course, there are three geniuses, all with us..."

Gasperini was obviously talking about Chen Zhuo, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Kaladze, and of course he meant to ridicule and ease the atmosphere. The players laughed.

"The list is given according to 4-4-2, but in fact their position should be like this..." Gasperini put the circular magnets symbolizing AC Milan players on the tactical board and introduced

: "Pirlo's position should be in front of the two 'muscular man' central defenders. The two 'muscular men' Gattuso and Seedorf will be in the two ribs in front of Pirlo, and Boateng will be in the attacking midfielder position.

above, forming a rhombus triangle."

"Robinho should be behind Ibrahimovic. As a shadow striker and attacking midfielder, he and Boateng must constantly change positions. These are two 'undead' players, with the left and right full-backs Antonini and Arsenal.

Bart is also 'unstoppable', and their running range is from the ribs to the wings, helping Ibrahimovic to open up gaps."

This metaphor is very vivid. Four "muscular men" plus four "undead" ones cover Pirlo and Ibrahimovic. This is really what the "venomous tongue" Gilardiza said. Under the leadership of Allegri,

AC Milan's style is becoming more and more like Atalanta.

(Four)

This season, the Genoa team's tactics are no longer the monotonous "3-4-3". They are much richer than last season, and they have now developed two tailor-made tactical systems, including the "sea tactic" and the "twin tower tactic".

In Chen Zhuo's view, the "catch the sea tactic" is a perfect tactic for dealing with an "old" team like Parma, while the "twin tower tactic" is obviously used to bully Florence, which only has a second-rate center back, and is still "taking advantage of the situation".

Both of these tactics are not suitable to deal with AC Milan.

To deal with AC Milan, it is to use double midfielders and three central defenders to stabilize the defense first, and then, like last season and the first few rounds of this season, "snap Pirlo" and use speed to find gaps on the wing, and use defensive counterattacks as the basis.

The keynote is to seek stability first, and a draw is a victory.

However, after seeing Allegri's starting lineup, Chen Zhuo had to admit that Allegri's tactics of using a group of "muscular men" and "undead" to support the two core players at the front and back had already reduced their two major players.

Weaknesses have been made up for!

In other words, Allegri originally created the "Atlanta Miracle" with a group of second- and third-rate "muscle men" and "undead", but now he has replaced him with a group of "muscle men" with first-class technical and tactical abilities.

And "Immortal", worth dozens or even hundreds of times, from Allegri's point of view, even if you give up the former World Footballer, it would not be a pity!

Chen Zhuo vaguely felt that Pirlo in Allegri's tactics had become a "secondary priority". For Ibrahimovic, Allegri would rather give up Pato and Ronaldinho.

That shows that he is determined to make Ibrahimovic, a forward who he believes has the all-round characteristics of "controlling the ball, passing and shooting", into the new core of AC Milan!

As for Pirlo, he is probably like himself in Gasperini's "Twin Towers Tactics". His role is more to contain each team's "rush to Pirlo" tactics. The four "muscles" at the front and back.

"Male" performs the "strangling" of the player who violated Pirlo, and then creates opportunities for "Ibrahimovic Core" through four "undead" players!

(five)

"Coach, I want to ask a question." Chen Zhuo asked Gasperini when he walked out of the locker room and walked to the tunnel.

"Oh, what's the problem?" Gasperini asked.

Chen Zhuo said: "Have you analyzed that Milan may change their formation, but you don't know how they will adjust, so you simply did not design a specific containment tactic and just let us use what we are more familiar with?"

Gasperini smiled, patted Chen Zhuo on the shoulder and said: "After the first half, I think you will have new tactical ideas for the second half. The coaching staff and I will also think about it in the first half."

Yes, you can make adjustments during the halftime break. I told you that the second half will be left to you!"

Regarding Chen Zhuo's question, Gasperini neither admitted nor denied it. At the same time, he also told Chen Zhuo that he continued to retain Chen Zhuo's right to arrange and direct the game in the second half.

However, Gasperini did not tell Chen Zhuo that this request was actually made by Galliani to Preziosi. It is said that this was what Allegri meant. Preziosi also told Gasperini,

Galliani's original words were that Genoa did not have to give up the ball in this game, as long as it was not too rough and caused injuries to the players. If Genoa defeated Milan under Chen Zhuo's dispatch, it would actually be a change of direction.

Another ability of AC Milan contract player Chen Zhuo.

For Chen Zhuo, who is about to turn 6 years old, AC Milan’s training purpose for him is obviously different from those players brought into the youth training camp from Africa and South America through scouts. Milan has always trained players who have played for their own clubs to serve as coaches.

Habit, Ancelotti, Donadoni, Leonardo, etc., the list goes on and on.

AC Milan discovered Chen Zhuo by chance. It was recommended by one of Berlusconi's business partners. After Galliani obtained Chen Zhuo's information and analyzed it, Chen Zhuo, who was about to turn 6 years old, suddenly became famous in the Bundesliga.

Very interested. Moreover, Chen Zhuo, who had never received any systematic coaching training and served as an executive coach in Hamburg, actually did a great job. This made Galliani even more aware of Chen Zhuo's long-term value.

When negotiating with Chen Zhuo's agent Spanwitz, Galliani frankly stated that it was absolutely impossible to become a player and coach in AC Milan based on Chen Zhuo's information. Chen Zhuo even served as Milan's manager at the same time.

The assistant coaches are not qualified enough. After all, AC Milan is a real giant in Europe.

However, Galliani also said that since Milan agreed to sign Chen Zhuo, who is about to turn 16 years old, it shows that the Milan club fully realizes Chen Zhuo’s potential as a player and coach, and Milan is willing to create opportunities for Chen Zhuo to prove his worth.

Tactical planning and design capabilities and command and dispatch capabilities, and accumulated fame and qualifications for Chen Zhuo.

These are things Chen Zhuo doesn't know. The reason why Gasperini hinted to Chen Zhuo that the cooperation between big clubs and small clubs is by no means limited to a victory or defeat between the first team and the First Division. There is a lot behind it.

The deep cooperation is actually difficult to pinpoint. This seemingly simple game actually contains many purposes behind it.

(six)

The San Siro Stadium has a high attendance rate and is basically full. Genoa, which leads Serie A with four wins in four games, is led by three Milan players, two of whom never even represented AC Milan in the Europa League last season."

"Hamburg Double Star", these are the highlights of today.

There was a news release before this game. Chen Zhuo's lawsuit against the Italian newspaper "La Repubblica" has been officially accepted by the Milan District Court. Lawyers for both parties have refused to settle. The first court hearing has been scheduled for October 1.

One day happened to be Chen Zhuo's birthday.

In the stands of this game, Milan fans and Genoa fans simultaneously put up slogans supporting Chen Zhuo in safeguarding his legitimate rights and interests. Today, Chen Zhuo is like a link, making the atmosphere between Milan and Genoa fans seem very cordial and friendly. However,

As cordial as it is cordial, the stands for the home and away teams are still separated by protective gear and riot police. Both clubs have extreme fans. Who knows what will happen!

The atmosphere at the San Siro Stadium was very lively and exciting. Before the game started, the fans played a crowd game on their own. The Hong Kong team players sitting in the stands of the away team also happily joined in the fun, and their figures were projected on the big screen.

At that time, the scene also burst into warm applause

, although they knew that this applause was actually a tribute to Baggio sitting among the players, the Hong Kong fans watching the live broadcast were still very proud. Because of Chen Zhuo and Baggio, the Hong Kong team is not like a team ranked more than 140 in the world.

Their popularity is already very high.

It's really the "lighthouse effect". In the past few days, in addition to players playing in the European leagues, there are now Chinese players in the American Major League, the Australian League and the Japanese and Korean Leagues. Many of them have taken the initiative to contact the Hong Kong Football Association through their agents.

Get in touch and ask about naturalization matters.

Relatively speaking, fans in mainland China have become a bit sour. A good Chinese player with roots in Hongmiaozheng, a military family, a member of the August 1st Youth Team, and was selected for the 19-year-old National Youth Team, how could he become such a good player inexplicably?

Hong Kong people! Those who said this are actually "fake fans" who have never paid attention to Chen Zhuo. After seeing "Sports News" broadcast Chen Zhuo's "Victoria Round" a few days ago, we all started talking about it together.

, I discovered that this Hong Kong player is actually like this!

You are so angry. You are angry and cursing at the same time. Of course, you are scolding the bureaucrats of the Chinese Football Association. Although they are not actually interested in football and do not even know the rules of football, it does not prevent them from criticizing those posts.

Damn it, as if they were also football geniuses who were murdered by the Chinese Football Association.

With all kinds of complex emotions intertwined, this game started with a record high ratings in Hong Kong and mainland China.
