Chapter 76 Huang Chu's Trouble

I forget who said it, there are no two identical leaves in this world.

By the same token, there are no two identical tactics in this world.

Suppose, if all Barcelona's lineup and tactics were transplanted to the Premier League team, would they still be Barcelona? Will it still be the Dream Team 3 that fans are familiar with?

Absolutely not!

Maybe this team transplanted to the Premier League will be successful, but they will definitely not be exactly the same as Barcelona in La Liga.

The environment of the Premier League forces this team to make changes at the tactical level. If they copy Barcelona to the Premier League, the possibility of success is almost zero, because they tailor their play style according to the characteristics of La Liga and are not suitable. Premier League.

Ye Qiu has been reflecting on himself recently. He feels that he has made a very serious mistake, that is, he overly trusts the tactical understanding of famous marshals and forgets one very important point. Those things belong to famous marshals. It belongs to the team they coach, not to Ye Qiu or Ajax.

They are both left wingers, but Overmars and Robben have very different characteristics. Overmars is very good with both left and right feet, while Robben only has his left foot. Similarly, Van der Vaart and Van der Meyde are also perfect at the right wing position. different.

There are no players with exactly the same characteristics, which means there are no exactly the same tactics.

Therefore, there is a popular saying in the field of tactics that there is no strongest tactic, only the most suitable tactic.

In the past few days, Ye Qiu reorganized his tactical system for Ajax's 433 high defense, dug out every detail, reorganized it, and after sorting it out, he found targeted solutions to overcome the problem. problem method.

"I think the series of problems we have encountered as a team in the past two or three months are ultimately caused by these reasons. The first is that we are too inclined to attack in a straight line. This characteristic causes them to pass the ball directly forward once they switch from defense to offense.”

If Ye Qiu wants to improve the team's tactics, he must first let the coaching staff figure out what they want to improve, so he specially held a meeting with the coaching staff to instill his ideas for improvement into them.

"We pursue speed too much. This is a consistent characteristic of Ajax, and it is also due to my personal reasons!" Ye Qiu is not afraid to admit his mistakes at all, "But this kind of speed can sometimes catch opponents off guard. But sometimes, it can easily lead us to make mistakes.”

Ye Qiu smiled, "I remember, there is an old saying about defensive players, if you can intercept the ball but also protect it, then you are a qualified defender, because once the ball is intercepted, everyone on the team will Everyone is immediately switching to an offensive state. If you lose the ball at this time, it will be difficult for everyone to switch to a defensive state, so it is very dangerous.”

"In the same way, when we intercepted the ball, our excessive pursuit of speed led to too many straight passes. This type of pass itself has a high error rate, and it is easy to lose the ball again, and the team will either be exhausted. , or be beaten behind."

Bobby Harms listened to Ye Qiu's analysis carefully. He had to admit that there was indeed a reason on this level.

From the past to the present, Ajax has basically pursued fast-paced offensive football, and sometimes this concept is inherited subtly. It is in the bodies of Van der Vaart, Sneijder and others. The law changes.

"For this point, I think it is necessary for us to remind and ask our players that when there is an opportunity in the offense, of course we must be fast, but once we do not have enough grasp and opportunities, we should not blindly pass the ball, especially straight passes. "We should pass the ball more crosswise and back-pass, control the ball and look for opportunities patiently."

After listening to Ye Qiu's words, the coaches carefully recorded this in their notes. They will then begin to analyze and improve the team's training methods based on Ye Qiu's request. Instill that in the players.

"Another problem we encountered is that our midfield covers too much area. The three midfielders, including Gilberto Silva, basically sit in the back, protecting the defense and establishing a midfield interception area. "With Keita and Sneijder up front, it's difficult to cover that wide an area."

"Our high-position defensive style is based on quickly forming a numerical advantage in a local area. Once the control is insufficient, we can easily be torn apart by the opponent and cut into pieces. In the end, we will be beaten behind and solved. The solution to this problem is to continue to ensure the numerical advantage in local areas!”

All the members of the coaching staff looked at Ye Qiu without saying anything and listened carefully because he was the head coach of the team.

"I have been reflecting on some of my actions recently. In today's football, the distribution of tactical responsibilities can be said to be very obvious. Just like PSV, the forwards are responsible for scoring and attacking, the midfielders are responsible for interception and organization, and the defenders are responsible for defense. Let's run it. , each has its own division of labor and is well organized, but it is too mechanical. "

"The offensive routine we implemented before, with Ibrahimovic retreating and Robben and Van der Vaart playing behind, was actually to use their machinery to create articles. But I found that we have to do a lot to break the division of labor of this machinery. It’s not thorough enough, we should make the three lines into a seamless whole while keeping them compact and orderly!”

If it is seamless, the opponent will not be able to exploit the gaps and cut off the whole of Ajax. Then they will always be one person against the whole, with no advantage at all.

"That is to say, we need to actively advocate player changes in training while ensuring the overall smooth operation of the team. For example, Ibrahimovic can retreat, why can't Lucio move forward? With the Brazilian's speed , personal defensive ability, and mobility. Once he moves forward, his help to the midfield will be immeasurable, and he also likes to move forward. "

"Of course, I don't advocate blindly letting the central defenders advance forward, but I do advocate that as long as there is a gap between the midfield and the defense, the central defenders will decisively and boldly advance forward to fill the gap and avoid being exploited by the opponent. So why not Isn't it a way to strengthen the defense? And this kind of switching and movement should be spread to the whole team."

"There is absolutely no need for two wingers to always occupy two wings. In order to avoid the problem of too much coverage in the midfield, which leads to a decrease in control, we should compress the control area, but this is not to give up wing attack."

"For example, when the ball comes to the right, the opponent's overall defense must tilt to the right. Van der Vaart is the main attack point. Ibrahimovic and Sneijder have to get closer to him to support. At this time, Robben and Keita should actively move to the middle, so that we have enough strength to ensure the numerical advantage in local areas. "

"So, what about the attack on the left? Abidal can go forward. Once the situation is out of control on the right, he can move to Abidal in a large area, because at this time, the opponent's defensive attention is attracted by Robben and Keita. , and defenders are usually the weak point of defense, so if the full-backs attack in this situation, it will definitely have unexpected effects.”

Having said this, Ye Qiu drew his own readjusted Ajax tactical positioning diagram on the tactical board behind him.

Goalkeeper Grimm remains unchanged. In defensive mode, the defense lines stand in parallel. Keita, Gilberto Silva and Sneijder also all stand in parallel to protect the defense line. Robben, Ibrahimovic and Van der Vaart also stand in parallel positions. It is also a flat position, which is a typical 433 three-line parallel position, because this can ensure that the defense line is compact and effectively covers a 30-meter area.

But this is in a defensive situation. Generally speaking, unless Ajax is pressed, or the opponent has a free kick opportunity in the frontcourt, it is usually difficult to use it.

In a mobile game, Ye Qiu felt that Ajax's 433 should be more stretchable.

On the front line, Ibrahimovic occupies the center, Robben and Van der Vaart occupy the two wings. Their positions are determined based on the positions of the opponent's center back and full back, but behind them, for better Supporting the wingers, Keita and Sneijder are like a pair of horns, forming a triangle position with Gilberto Silva sitting at the back.

Keita and Sneijder are both players who can run and pass, especially Sneijder, who plays a great role in counterattacks. They have great coverage, especially Keita, who has excellent running ability and positional prerequisites. After a while, they can either press forward when attacking, or increase the intensity of counterattacking on the spot when defending.

In order to echo the two sides of Gilberto Silva, the positions of the two full-backs Abidal and Maicon have to be moved forward, and Lucio and Kivu occupy the central defender positions. The entire defense line becomes a shallow dish. Shape stance.

This is just a general arrangement. The specific details will be changed according to the opponent's position. However, the tactical tasks of the players are basically fixed. Even in the game, they will only be in a small area. adjustment.

Ye Qiu is now thoroughly reflecting on the mistakes he made before, such as being too demanding on one touch. This is not to say that one touch is not good, but that if the goal is to ensure one touch, the team's passing errors will result. If it increases, then the gain outweighs the loss.

So now Ye Qiu proposes improvements, more cooperation, more transfers, and more support.

If you want to play high defense, you must have strong control. Without Barcelona's abnormal ball control ability, the best way is to rely on cooperation, transfer, and running to fill the ball control ability. shortcomings.

How is Manchester United's off-the-ball movement established?

It was Eric Harrison who saw the English team's shortcomings in ball control, and in order to fill the gap between Manchester United and other mainland league teams, he used running without the ball to achieve the purpose of controlling space, and then fill the gap. Inadequacy of the ball.

In the final analysis, whether it is running without the ball, pursuing possession of the ball, or pursuing control of space, it is all to ensure the team's control of the game.

The advantage of having a coaching staff is that Ye Qiu doesn't have to do everything himself.

He instilled his ideas into the coaching staff, and then the coaching staff formulated a series of training details to implement Ye Qiu's ideas, such as adding appropriate requirements to the new training methods for the players to implement during training, etc.

In addition, during the team's competition training, some practical requirements are also put forward. Through the competition, the players can become familiar with, understand and master Ye Qiu's ideas.

But despite this, Ye Qiu still has to personally supervise and guide, and put forward some of his own opinions and ideas at any time, so as to ensure that the team can move in the direction he wants.

For a head coach, training is far more important than the game!

If you cannot ensure that the players implement and master your requirements in training, then don't expect the players to execute your tactics well in the game. Ye Qiu has made obvious progress in tactics, training, and even the mental level of a head coach in the past year or so.

This can be seen from the data in the Godfather Development System. Ye Qiu has reached 78 points in personal attribute tactics. I believe this is also very high among coaches in the Dutch League. His emphasis on tactics in the past period of time has not been in vain.

Tactics have improved, but he has not fallen behind in other aspects, such as training players.

Because there are corresponding trainers for physical fitness and goalkeepers, Ye Qiu did not add too many bonus points in these two aspects, and he only dabbled in them slightly on weekdays. After all, human energy is limited.

But Ye Qiu paid great attention to the training in offense, defense, technology, tactics, psychology, etc. He also watched the team's training seriously on weekdays, so he made obvious progress. Now he has basically exceeded 50 points, including 67 points in tactics, 63 points in technology, and 61 points in offense, which are all very good.

If we follow the comprehensive evaluation, Ye Qiu feels that he should be barely considered a second-rate head coach in Europe.

All this depends on the store and study room of the Godfather Development System.

Relatively speaking, he doesn't pay much attention to personal attributes and tasks. He pursues them naturally and will not pursue them deliberately, but he spends almost most of his reward points in the store and study room. After all, studying every night before going to bed will undoubtedly make it easier for Ye Qiu to make more progress than others.

But because Ye Qiu has devoted all his time to the training of the first team, he has neglected many things.

For example, Huang Chu, who has been worried recently, has asked for leave.

…………

Amsterdam is a city worth visiting. Every day, many tourists from all over the world arrive in this city to enjoy the unique scenery of this city.

But at this moment, Huang Chu, sitting in a coffee shop on the Amstel River in the city, was not in the mood at all, because of the person in front of her.

Zhang Zijian is two years older than Huang Chu. He was born with a golden key. Their Zhang family is a well-known figure in Shanghai. They have a wide range of industries and have close business dealings with the Huangtian Group of the Huang family. Moreover, the Zhang family and the Huang family are old friends. Huang Jinsong and his father are brothers and sisters. Their relationship is extraordinary.

They grew up together. From elementary school to junior high school to high school, they were classmates. However, when they went to study abroad in college, Zhang Zijian went to the United States to study business administration, and two years later Huang Chu came to the Netherlands. Her interest was to study medicine.

As the only son in the family, Zhang Zijian is always accompanied by various halos, which has cultivated his self-satisfied pride.

Huang Chu knew about this, so she didn't like this person, but her father liked Zhang Zijian very much, and even told Huang Chu on the phone that this person in front of him was the only son-in-law he liked, and as for Ye Qiu, she shouldn't think about it anymore.

This made her feel sad and even a little painful.

"Chu Chu... Chu Chu?" Zhang Zijian sat opposite and called softly a few times.

Seeing that Huang Chu seemed to be immersed in his thoughts and didn't respond, he couldn't help but look at Chen Zhong who was sitting next to him with some embarrassment.

Chen Zhong is Huang Chu's cousin. After graduation, he joined Huangtian Group and became Huang Jinsong's right-hand man. Like Huang Chu's brother, he was a classmate of Zhang Zijian when he studied business administration in the United States. This time, Huang Jinsong arranged for them to come to Amsterdam to find Huang Chu during the National Day, and behind the scenes, Chen Zhong's task was to match Huang Chu and Zhang Zijian.

"Chu Chu!" Chen Zhong pulled Huang Chu's hand. He treated Huang Chu as his own sister since he was a child.

"Ah!" Huang Chu came to her senses. She was used to Ye Qiu calling her Ah Chu. Suddenly someone called her Chu Chu, and she was not used to it. "Sorry, I was a little busy at work and I was distracted."

Zhang Zijian was fascinated by Huang Chu's apologetic smile. Even her apology was so beautiful and moving.

"I heard that you work in a football club?" Chen Zhong asked with a smile. He was a football fan.

"Ajax!" Huang Chu smiled.

"Oh, a European giant!" Chen Zhong smiled.

Huang Chu nodded, "Their head coach is a Chinese named Ye Qiu!"

When she read the name Ye Qiu, she was indescribably gentle.

Chen Zhong knew his cousin very well. She was stubborn. If she liked someone, she would never change her mind. Moreover, he was also against his uncle's overbearing approach. What era was it? Did the older generation still follow the orders of parents and matchmakers?

But he worked in Huangtian Group, so he could only follow his uncle's arrangements.

"I'd like to meet him if I have a chance. Chinese football is not good, but there is such an amazing person. I must meet him!" Chen Zhong said with a smile. This was a compliment from the bottom of his heart.

Huang Chu knew that his cousin liked football, so he smiled and said, "I'll find a chance to introduce you to each other!"

"Okay!"

Zhang Zijian was listening to the two talking about football. He couldn't get a word in, so he was a little depressed.

"In the United States, no one likes football. They all think that football is too boring and not exciting enough, so they all like rugby, basketball, and NBA. I have been to all the home stadiums of the NBA to watch games. The atmosphere is too enthusiastic. I remember that an authoritative media commented that basketball is the most popular sport in the world!"

He talked about his experience of watching basketball games in the United States, and he was intoxicated, as if he wanted to share his experience of enthusiasm with the two of them.

Little did they know that Chen Zhong and Huang Chu looked at each other and smiled bitterly, because they completely lacked a sense of substitution.

"Uh..." After Zhang Zijian's mouth was dry, Huang Chu smiled shyly and reminded: "The world's number one sport is football!"

"Really?" Zhang Zijian was stunned, but soon said with a shameless face: "No, I remember that it seems that the New York Times or some other newspaper commented that basketball is the world's number one sport!"

But it is obvious that his tone is no longer as confident and affirmative as before, and there is a little tremor in his voice.

Huang Chu and Chen Zhong both knew what kind of person he was, so they didn't expose him and let him be stubborn.

Especially Huang Chu, she was not more concerned about which one was the world's number one sport, football or basketball. What she really cared about was how to get rid of Zhang Zijian as soon as possible, because she really didn't like this dandy boy who had nothing but money and a pretty good-looking face.
