In fact, the configuration of Knotts County on the striker position has been somewhat thin. Of course, this is compared to other clubs, with 4-5 strikers, and Knotts County has always insisted that there are only two strikers.
Loew's tactics are dominated by 4231, sometimes it will become 433, and sometimes even a wingless formation will be sacrificed, so there is usually only one playing position.
Just like other positions, a main force and a rotation substitute are normally sufficient for the entire season.
There are only two strikers because there is a winger from Kuyt who is a genuine striker. When he is forced, he can also play a dozen at the striker position, how can he cope with it.
But now it’s different. Kuyt went to Liverpool, but there is no player who can play as a striker in Knotts County. Even when playing a forward-less formation, Kaka, the most suitable pseudo-center, is still injured. In other words, except Villa, Notts County has no one available in the forward position.
Loew has made up his mind that he will discuss with David immediately. Next season, the Knotts County striker must not have more than two real strikers.
But the first thing that needs to be overcome is the immediate difficulty. Villa can't carry it alone, and there are still a few games that Villa can't play. Knotts County urgently needs a striker to come up.
The first option is to tap the potential within the first team, select a Wan Jinyou player who can be a pseudo center from the players to temporarily replace two games.
Kaka can't play, it is estimated that only Cazorla may have a try. Spain's midfield speed and technology are good. As the team's golden oil exists, he has played almost any position in the midfield and frontcourt, but he has never played. Over striker
The transfer window has long been closed, and it is impossible to find a temporary pot from the transfer market;
The last option is to pick an outstanding striker from the youth training camp, which is consistent with the tradition of Notts County, but Loew is a little afraid to report too much hope.
Rick Link is definitely a competent youth training supervisor. Those who have the strength to enter the first team in the youth camp have been recommended to Loew. As for those who have not yet reached the standards of the first team of Notts County, they have also been loaned. After I went out, I wanted to Taobao from the youth training camp again.
But with a try mentality, Love still went to the youth training base after the training, but he did not go directly to the training of the young players, but directly went to Rick Link.
He hoped that Rick Link would recommend suitable candidates to him, and then he would investigate again, which would save a lot of trouble.
"What, do you need a striker to be temporarily promoted to the first team?" Rick Link was a little surprised when he learned the goal of Loew, but after a bit of pondering, he understood the reason, Drogba suspended, Villa. No one can withstand such an intensive schedule.
Although I am very happy that Loew can focus on the youth training camp, Rick Link still smiles helplessly, because there are really no suitable candidates in the youth training camp in Notts County!
"Yuah, you know, if a young player really has the strength to enter the first team, I can't not recommend it to you." Rick Link sighed: "There is an 88-year forward, although he hasn't yet Reached the strength to enter the first team, but it is no problem to temporarily top up to play for a few games, but he is a non-EU player and there is no way to obtain a labor certificate, so it is definitely not possible. There are two 89-year-old strikers left. It’s a little too small. Not everyone is as evil as Rooney. At 15 years old, he’s as strong as a calf!"
Sure enough, Loew was also helpless, he knew that the result might be like this.
The 88-year-old striker has also paid attention to him before and is a Polish. After this season, David intends to loan him to the satellite club to confuse the labor certificate. Now he can’t play on behalf of Notts County. The two 88-year-old forwards It's so small, I can't really send primary school students to play!
Luff, who did not get good news from the youth training camp, could only find David and confess his problems. If David could not solve it, at least give him comfort!
At this time, David also feels that he has indeed made a mistake in the team's configuration. The configuration of the two forwards is no problem if there is no injury, but how can professional players completely avoid the attack of injury? , Especially a striker, often needs to physically confront opponents, and the chance of injury is higher.
I really need to add a striker next season!
However, the problems in front of the team still need to be solved. Since they cannot be recruited, they can only tap the potential internally!
"How many games do you expect other players to temporarily appear on the striker position?" David thought about it and asked Loew.
Loew had an abbreviated version and began to talk to David: "The next game against Monaco will definitely require Villa to play. We need this victory; a week later, it is the fifth round of the League Cup. This game also Villa can be put on the court. In the first time, there is enough time to recover physical fitness. Second, if we can eliminate our opponents, we can break into the semifinals of the League Cup. We can try to win the League Cup championship."
"Then there is the league against Cibro at home. This game requires someone to temporarily appear on the striker position."
"If we can beat Monaco in the next game, then the last UEFA Champions League group match will allow the reserve team to play. This game does not need to worry."
"You can play in the next league against Newcastle Villa, but then in the league with Liverpool, it happens to be the day of the European Golden Globe awards ceremony. Villa will definitely not be able to play, so there is a need for a temporary player. Go up."
"Then the league will play Arsenal, and the game time is the day before the award ceremony of Mr. World Football. I'm afraid Villa can't play."
"After this game Drogba will end the suspension and can play, so at least someone has to play guest striker three games, and this is still on the premise that Villa is not affected by injuries. Leah is also injured, so just stop playing!"
When Loew finished, he drank his coffee, leaving David with time to think.
David stood in front of the window and thought for a while. He had an idea in his heart, and then started talking to Loew.
"If you play 433 without a forward, you have no choice but Cazorla. Although he hasn't played a forward, this is just a matter of habit. In the next period of training, you can try to make him appear In this position, I think his adaptability should be competent!"
"Of course, you have a second option, which is to use a defender as a center. You are not unfamiliar with this tactic. I think Ramos is a good choice. You need speed. If you want to be skillful, he has a good sense of grabbing points from a defender. The most important thing is that he still has a good header, which makes him not a long-term center. But I believe that there are no problems with a few guest appearances!"
Hearing this, Luff's eyes lit up and suddenly became bright! (To be continued.)
