"What on earth do you want to do?"
Aragones' question was hard to answer for a while.
Yeah, what do I want to do?
Gao Han asked himself in his heart.
Win the Spanish Super Cup? Lead Atletico Madrid to avoid relegation and even achieve better results as far as possible?
But it's the goal, it's the result.
He has to do something to achieve the goal and get the result.
What on earth is that?
Gao Han shook his head and wry smile, "I don't know, still groping."
Guardiola was stunned. What's the answer?
But what I didn't expect was that after hearing this, Aragones burst out laughing, "well said, that's right!"
Guardiola is even more strange. What does Zhisou mean?
"People always think that they know what they want to do, but in fact, they don't know. Everyone, living in this world, is groping. Life is like this, so is football!"
Gao Han and Guardiola looked at each other, and both noticed the surprise of each other.
Unexpectedly, this grumpy old man even has the chicken soup side of his soul.
"One thing I find strange is why you choose to sell Zoran nigus?"
Aragones asked a question that many people didn't understand.
"As far as I know, none of the players you brought in can replace Zoran nigus, can you?"
Last season, although Aguilera will guest star in the back midfield position, but more often, Zoran nigus, Xavi Alonso and Marcos Senna are the three back midfield standard of Atletico Madrid.
About two players in charge, Harvey Alonso is responsible for the organization of the delay, which is also considered to be the reason why Atletico Madrid made great progress in the second half, but unexpectedly, Gao Han sold Zoran nigus, which is strange.
Guardiola seems to be interested in team formation and tactics, and immediately looks at the cold with concern.
"My idea is to replace Zoran nigus with Deco."
"Deco?" Aragones was stunned.
Guardiola is also obviously surprised, "as far as I know, he should be playing in the front, right?"
"Yes, but I want him to step back."
Aragones was immediately in front of his eyes, "you have to play ball control."
"You see that?" Gao Han smiles bitterly. The old man's eyesight is really a thief.
"Tell me what you think." Alagones urged with interest.
Although Atletico Madrid and Real Mallorca are rivals in the league, there is nothing to hide about the tactics, because once on the football field, there is no secret at all.
The key to the duel between the two teams lies in the targeted tactics of the head coaches of both sides.
In other words, even if Gao Han now confesses his idea with Aragones, there is no problem at all, because Mallorca has his own lineup and playing style. It is impossible to form a new set of tactics in order to restrain Atletico Madrid, right?
This is not realistic at all!
On the contrary, this kind of open communication between coaches can promote each other's progress.
That's what national football associations and professional leagues are trying to do.
What's more, it's a rare opportunity to consult Aragones. How can alpine cold miss it for nothing?
"First of all, I think the way of football is to develop its strengths and avoid its weaknesses. The current mainstream playing method is the double back configuration. 4231 has almost become the standard configuration, but I personally think that this kind of playing method is not suitable for our Atletico Madrid."
Aragones nodded. "You don't have wingers."
"The main reason is that wingers are too expensive to buy!" Bitter smile of high cold.
Zhisou and Guardiola can't help smiling. It's really expensive.
Real Betis failed to upgrade this season, and intended to sell a few players left behind in exchange for a reconstruction fund. As a result, brilliant winger Hua Jin was directly priced at 30 million euros.
Not to mention Atletico Madrid, even Real Madrid and Barcelona are deterred.
But in 4231, two wingers are the key.
For example, Real Madrid have Figo, Savio, Solari, McManaman, Barcelona also have ovimas, Luis Enrique and Rivaldo and other stars, other Spanish teams are also like this.
Spain's winger tactics is a major feature.
However, there are some similarities and differences between Atletico Madrid's traditional playing style and that of other Spanish teams. For example, they all attach great importance to the strong center, but the winger has never been the strength of the bedspread team.
This has something to do with Atletico Madrid's insistence on high position defense and advocating middle and front court closing down.
"Your idea of controlling the ball in midfield is very similar to Camacho when he took over the national team
"Camacho?" It's a bit of an accident.
This is the current head coach of the Spanish national team, but the result is not very ideal. The tactics of flying with both wings and fighting high are also criticized in Spain.
Aragones saw that Gao Han and Guardiola were looking at themselves, and his four eyes were full of curiosity, so he could only explain.
"In the past few years, we have always been recognized as a strong team by the outside world. La Liga is also one of the top three leagues in the world. Later, with the rise of the Bundesliga, it has become one of the top four leagues. However, we have always lagged behind other countries in terms of tactics."
Gao Han and Guardiola listen very carefully. This kind of opportunity is quite rare.
"So, you see, in the seventies, the Netherlands and Germany were invincible. In the eighties, England was invincible. There was nothing wrong with Spain. Even in the five hawks era of Real Madrid, that is, playing at home and going out of the country, we still couldn't play."
"At that time, everyone in our country was thinking, why?"
Alpine blurted back: "the characteristics of the players are different."
Aragones flashed a hint of praise, "yes, our players are generally shorter than other countries, physically weak, but our advantage is flexibility and technology, so in the 1990s, Cruyff introduced the ball control system to Barcelona, like opening a door for all of us."
Gao Han and Guardiola looked at each other and listened more attentively.
"It can be said that in those years, we generally believed that the ball control method was the most suitable for our Spain. In addition, we are rich in fast wingers with excellent skills, so we soon formed a kind of playing method that attaches importance to the coordination of passing and cutting, divides the ball in the midfield, and breaks through the bottom pass from the side."
"But there are also problems in this way of playing. We rely on the center very much. In fact, in the past so many years, we have never had a world-class center. The club can rely on foreign aid, but the national team can't
"In addition, this kind of playing method will inevitably lead to our strong attack and weak defense, but our players are lack of confrontation ability, and defense, especially the defense in the middle of midfield, is a problem, so these two problems make it difficult for us to make a difference in the competition."
Alpine had to admit that Aragones's words really hit the nail on the head.
Obviously, the Spanish football community, especially the elite level, has long had a consensus on these.
"With the joint-stock reform of clubs in 1992, most of the Spanish teams have gradually come out of the business dilemma. Coupled with the stimulation of foreign aid brought by the Bosman act, the Spanish League is becoming more and more prosperous, and the tactics are catching up with other European leagues. Therefore, in recent years, the success of Madrid and Valencia comes from this."
"Cooper and other foreign coaches to bring the double back play, now has become the standard of many teams in La Liga, and facts have proved that this is also in line with the characteristics of Spanish football, Valencia's Balaha and Alberta are not the kind of confrontation defensive back, but more like technical defensive back."
"But before that, Camacho did an experiment with the Spanish national team
"Experiment?" It's a bit of an accident.
Guardiola seems to have noticed, "Louis, what you're saying is..."
Aragones nodded, but did not rush to say.
"After Cruyff entered Barcelona, a large number of excellent talents were cultivated there, including pep. Although they have made amazing achievements in the club, they are still not as good as they want in the national team. PEP even missed the national team for a long time."
Guardiola is also a sad face, it seems that this is also a pity in his heart.
"It's not because of prejudice, but because the mainstream of the national team at that time was confrontation, just like Clement's national team, playing four three three tactics, with three forwards in the front and two wingers occupying two positions in the three midfielders in the back. Can we give the remaining one to pep in the middle of the field?"
Gao Han looked at Guardiola and had to admit that Aragones was right.
The reason why Guardiola can play single back in Barcelona is due to Barcelona's overall ball control tactical system. However, when he was put in the Spanish national team, he obviously couldn't play.
Like Real Madrid, makeleleiqiang?
But next to him, Bosque also has to match a full-time defender, elgra, who came from the centre back.
"After Camacho took over the national team instead of clement, he wanted to try to change. He wanted to try to further strengthen the ball control, as Barcelona did, and let Guardiola be the core of the team. With the help of beleron, they formed a double midfield, slightly adjusted the two flanks, and adopted the traditional winger on the right, On the left side, he used Francois from La Coruna
"In the attack line, with strong physique and outstanding heading ability, but solid technique at the foot, ulcese and Raul form a double forward to ensure the ball control ability and one foot pass of the whole middle and front court."
"Camacho's adjustment has won him a house full of surprises!"
Guardiola also seems to recall that year's experience, full of praise, said: "yes, I still remember, in 1999, the national team won eight games in a row, overwhelming!"
"Yes, the first game was in March. In the third round of the European Cup qualifier, Austria played at home, and the world was shocked by the 9-0 game. Then they beat San Marino at home and away, Austria 3-1 at home, Cyprus 8-0 at home and Israel 3-0 at home
Aragones also showed a look of remembrance.
"Even at the end of the year, when we meet the Brazil team with Ronaldo, Rivaldo and Ronaldinho at home, we can also play Brazil in a mess with crazy front court closing down and fluent attack cooperation. Although it is zero to zero in the end, it is the best game played by the national team."
"Even after the 2-0 loss to Argentina, although there are many problems, the team's performance is still remarkable and full of hope, especially the outstanding players such as Luis Enrique, mendetta, munitis, Fran, greiro, echeberia and morentes, which makes the national team appear to be full of talents."
Alpine has been paying attention to the look of Aragones and Guardiola, although only listening, but still full of wonder.
In principle, such a team of Spain should be a hot spot in the 2000 European Cup, but how did it end up in the last eight?
If we say that the top eight met the invincible France and regretted defeat, we can be forgiven.
But why is the Spanish national team playing differently now( (to be continued.)
