"Is this Qi-Ming?" Sporting Lisbon's scout obviously sent Aurelio Pereira some Qi-Ming-related information, otherwise the scout would be too incompetent. "This is an excellent Qi-Ming."
Player Zhang, you should let him come to Europe to play. He is already over 21 years old. If he continues to play in China, his growth will be too slow."
Zhang Sheng’s smile for Aurelio Pereira’s deception.
Zhang Sheng's expression was all too familiar to Aurelio Pereira: "You are always like this, always holding on to players as treasures. You should let them come out and try their best."
"I will let them come to Europe." Zhang Sheng responded to Aurelio Pereira's complaint, "And the club that accepts them must give a corresponding commitment to the number of appearances."
Aurelio Pereira shrugged helplessly at this promise that could only be given by the head coach.
Qi Ming's current performance does have the potential to become Alonso or Gerrard, but who knows what will happen in the future? Aurelio Pereira can submit Qi Ming's information to the head coach of Sporting Lisbon, but
The final decision still needs to be made by the head coach.
"What about Nie? His abilities don't have to wait for the future. He can play in any team in the Portuguese Super League now." Aurelio Pereira has been following Nie Jiang for a long time and is obviously very concerned about Nie Jiang's current situation.
familiar.
Of course, Zhang Sheng knew better than him. Nie Jiang's ability value exceeded 100 at the end of the season, becoming the one with the highest ability value among the active local players in the Chinese Super League. But Zhang Sheng still felt that Nie Jiang was young, he was only 19 years old.
, especially since he has just used Potential Pills, according to Zhang Sheng’s past experience, Nie Jiang needs at least more than a month of adaptation period.
The European leagues are currently in the winter transfer period. The team will not replace a leading forward without special reasons. It is indeed inappropriate for Nie Jiang to transfer now.
"Let's wait and see how China's World Cup qualifiers fare this year." Zhang Sheng gave an excuse that Aurelio Pereira couldn't refuse.
Although neither player received a definite commitment from Zhang Sheng, Aurelio Pereira still patiently watched the game between Longteng and Sporting Sport B with Zhang Sheng.
"Maybe it's the right choice for our B team to ask you to be the head coach." This was Aurelio Pereira's evaluation of the game after the game.
Indeed, the score of 4:1 is a very embarrassing result for the Spur Athletic B team. The opponent came from afar and has just started the warm-up match. They are still in the league and have lost 3 goals. It is really all-round.
failed.
The team actually had a lot of problems in this game.
Qi Ming has excellent performance in the middle, but compared with Roque Gill, his defense is not sophisticated enough. His ability to play the ball at his feet in confrontations needs to be strengthened. He still needs to hone in on how to make the best choice when transitioning between offense and defense.
These are the differences between a young player and foreign players.
In addition, it is obvious that Ni Kai's physical fitness cannot play the whole game. In the position of wing back, his defensive ability and defensive awareness are insufficient, and it is likely to become a big pitfall in the next new season.
After De Paul came to his new position, he was unable to provide Ni Kai with much defensive help, which made Zhang Sheng have some questions about his tactics.
Of course, the most obvious problem is Fernando's incompatibility with tactics.
In this game, Fernando's personal performance was not bad. His breakthrough in the winger position was very sharp. His speed caused a lot of trouble for the children of the Spontane Athletic B team, and he finally scored a goal.
However, these performances of Fernando were independent of Zhang Sheng's tactics. He played too self-centered.
After Fernando was bought to China by the Longteng team, he did not play in the team. He has been loaned to the Xijiang Tianshan Snow Leopards. Because he is really useful, the Xijiang Tianshan Snow Leopards loaned him for two consecutive years and tested Longteng many times.
Team, but Team Longteng did not agree.
In the Xijiang Tianshan Snow Leopards, head coach Li Jun played an old-fashioned defensive counterattack, and Fernando was used as a single-type player who relied on speed. His dribbling and shooting skills indeed made him successful in the Chinese League One.
But when he arrived at the Longteng team, he was obviously out of tune tactically.
It's not that he's not capable enough, it's that his tactical thinking hasn't changed.
Historically, when Fernando first started playing football in Chongqing Lifan, he relied entirely on his body's instinct such as speed to play football. However, after encountering most opponents who got used to him, Fernando changed quickly.
Chongqing Lifan's head coach Zhang Wailong still has a lot of skills. He asked Fernando to start changing positions on the two wings, making full use of his strong ball-holding ability, combined with his fast speed and rapid changes in rhythm.
Frequently supporting passes from both wings or directly cutting inside to shoot.
It can be said that under Zhang Wailong's training, Fernando has changed from a pure wing attacker to a player who can not only attack, but also play as a shadow forward and attacking midfielder.
However, under the guidance of Li Jun, Fernando's football has become more and more rigid, and his characteristics are becoming more and more easily violated. Last season, he was injured twice in the Tianshan Snow Leopards in Western Xinjiang.
Zhang Sheng is still confident in transforming Fernando. This player is not the kind of unruly person, and Zhang Sheng thinks he is much better than Zhang Wailong.
The conversation between Zhang Sheng and Fernando after the game was very simple: "How does it feel to be on the team?"
"It's very good. My teammates are very good to me. I feel very happy."
"What are your thoughts on today's game?" Zhang Sheng asked.
"It went well at first, but then it was a bit unsatisfactory." Fernando obviously knew what he was doing.
"Phil. You know I won't restrict your performance on the field. I can't even restrict anyone. Because sometimes in football, one person can solve the problem. Anyone can become a key player, right?" Zhang Sheng
The question of Fernando was not raised directly.
Fernando obviously knew that Zhang Sheng had not finished speaking and was waiting for Zhang Sheng to continue.
"But football is a sport of eleven people. It is easy to play all individuals, and it is not difficult to cooperate with all players. When you pass the ball, you are never passing the ball to a certain person, but passing the ball from the left to the left.
The foot has been switched to the right foot. You have been in China for two years and you know that we in China have a saying that brothers are like brothers. When you have brothers, if your left foot can't do it, you have a right foot to help you. If your right foot can't do it, you have a left foot.
I can’t help you, but our team still has a brain. You can let the brain get the ball and organize it again. So, I hope you know that when you feel that you are not playing well, it’s not that you are not strong enough.
But if you need help, you should go to your teammates, and you should also trust your teammates."
Zhang Sheng spoke this paragraph very carefully and slowly in Portuguese, hoping that Fernando would understand what he meant.
"I know the coach. In the first two seasons, I always wanted to win and win the championship in the previous team, but I failed. I even wanted to give up on my dream." Fernando glanced at Zhang shyly. l, "My dream is to enter the Brazilian national team."
Seeing that Zhang Sheng did not show any mocking expression, and even had a hint of encouragement, Fernando continued: "I now understand a little bit why I didn't succeed before, because I didn't really believe that my teammates could help me. I will work hard in the future. It changed my habit of playing football on the court."
"Yeah. Come on!" It was a pleasure to chat with such a person with high emotional intelligence. Zhang Sheng patted Fernando on the shoulder encouragingly, "Go and have a good rest. We still have a lot of games ahead."
Sure enough, in the following training, Fernando began to work hard to cooperate with his teammates. Under the guidance of the coaching staff, his good passing characteristics were slowly discovered, which can be regarded as an unexpected surprise.
Two days later, the Longteng team flew to Germany and played a friendly match with Red Bull Leipzig.
As the second-ranked team in the Bundesliga, you can imagine how difficult it is for the Dragons to play. Even if the opponent does not exert its full strength and sends a mixed lineup of main players and substitutes, the Dragons are completely at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the opponent.
In response to the 3-5-2 tactical system of the Dragons, Leipzig Red Bull's position is 4-2-2-2. This should be specially instructed by their head coach Hasenhuttl.
Rangnick stepped down as head coach this season and concentrated on being his sports director. Hasenhuttl was hired from another Bundesliga team, Ingolstadt. This is a very tactical player. A flexible coach, he plays 4-4-2, 4-5-1, and 4-3-3 very smoothly. Against different opponents, he plays 4-2-3-1, 4-2-2-2, 4 -4-1-1 has many variations.
In this 4-2-2-2 style of play, the two wingers press very high up. They are responsible for pressing the two wide central defenders of the Longteng team. One of the two forwards is responsible for pressing the central central defender, and the other is responsible for filling in at any time. Pressure.
When dealing with a three-center-back system like the Dragons, most teams would choose a single forward approach to avoid its edge, but Hasenhuttl chose to be tough and send out four forwards to suppress it. He has the confidence to do so. The main reason is that the team is strong enough and the tactical details are more detailed.
The Longteng team, which is used to playing ground ball and advancing from the backcourt to the front, now looks very embarrassed.
Zhang Sheng's countermeasure is to withdraw the two wing-backs and put De Paul and Tao Wentao on top. The purpose of withdrawing the wing-backs is to allow the center back to have more shooting points and top the two midfielders. It is because Leipzig Red Bull has few players in the midfield, and attacking the two players on Leipzig's side must cover the weakness of the entire midfield.
The idea is good, but there are still many problems in actual implementation.
After the two wing-backs Ni Kai and Fernando got the ball with their backs, they were unable to turn around quickly or cooperate with their teammates. De Paul did not intercept the pass to the two wingers from the Leipzig midfielder in time, and the team as a whole did not have the ball. Running and poor running ability were the reasons why the Longteng team was suppressed.
Compared with the Dragons, Leipzig Red Bull is also a team with a very young average age. Their average age of 23 is half a year older than the Dragons. This fully reflects the advantage of the Dragons' proud players who are young and can run.
If they don't come out, the RB Leipzig, which is physically stronger and runs smarter, makes the Dragons' pressing tactics less effective.
This season they strictly implement the Leipzig-style "Gegenpressing" style (commonly known as frontcourt pressing). This pressing style of play relies entirely on two legs, and the average running distance per game reaches 116.6km, which is
The best in the Bundesliga.
It’s not that Zhang Sheng didn’t consider using the tactics that Bayern’s Ancelotti used against Leipzig a month ago. It’s because the strength gap between the players on both sides is too big.
In the first half, RB Leipzig led the Dragons 3:0. Just as Bayern defeated the RB Leipzig, RB Leipzig defeated the Dragons.
In the second half, the Longteng team made adjustments on the field. Cao Jinghao replaced Ni Kai, and De Paul returned to his familiar position of wing-back. The situation was much better.
Compared with Ni Kai, Cao Jinghao's passing and receiving ability is much stronger. He can be regarded as a slightly enhanced version of Lin Feng. In addition to being good at short passing and sprinting, he also has the ability to pass long passes. In the second half, the Longteng team scored the only goal.
The launch of the ball attack came from his long pass from the left to the right, and then Fernando made a pass from the wing. Chavez grabbed the ball in the middle, and De Paul grabbed the second point. No one
The defensive shot was successful.
In the end, Leipzig, which played all substitutes in the second half, allowed the Dragons to score a goal and save some face.
From this game, it is not difficult to see that the tactical level of European coaches is N levels higher than that of most Asian coaches. The players of the strong Bundesliga teams are much better than the Chinese Super League. Of course, it can also be seen that the strength of the main starting players of the Longteng team is considered
Not bad, he can compete with substitutes like Leipzig who rarely play.
After Hasenhuttl shook hands with Zhang Sheng as usual after the game, Rangnick, as an old acquaintance of Zhang Sheng, took over the reception. He came here mainly to discuss Weigel's transfer with the Longteng team.
The excellent results of Leipzig Red Bull have made Weigel a celebrity closely watched by several wealthy clubs. It is said that Bayern has begun to contact his agent, which makes Leipzig very nervous.
Seeing Weigel play out, Zhang Sheng also knew that he would never play in the Chinese Super League again, at least not in the next few years, so selling Weigel had long been on the club's agenda.
In terms of business, even though Weigl was promoted from Leipzig, he still earned the money he should have earned. Longteng Club has received countless inquiries about him, including from Bundesliga giants such as Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund.
When Zhang Sheng revealed this, Rangnick became anxious: "Zhang, you are from Leipzig. You know how much we value young players. We will give them a long-term plan for every young player.
This is much better than them going to Bayern and waiting for their chance."
"I know this. I think your offer shouldn't be lower than Bayern's, right?" Zhang Sheng pointed to the essence.
"You cunning guy, you should be a businessman, not a team coach." Rangnick muttered.
"We will give you a satisfactory offer, but we hope to sign a pre-emption contract with you first. This year's budget has been used up, and we hope to introduce Weigel this summer." Rangnick finally made his request.
"No problem. I'll report it to the club. You know, I'm just a head coach now." The answer Zhang Sheng gave made Rangnick almost go berserk.
In the end, Zhang Sheng smiled and made a promise, agreeing to help facilitate this matter.
