Chapter 18 Changed Values
In the conference room, Wenger and other coaching staff gathered again.
And the purpose of their meeting this time is to analyze the secret of the sudden change of the team.
Wenger sat in the main seat, holding a pen in his right hand, tapped the table lightly, and said, "Who can tell me what is the reason for this change."
In this regard, the coaches looked at each other in dismay.
They have also been racking their brains on this issue.
But I just didn't figure it out.
This lineup is just one more Lucky, but how can there be such a huge change!
Because of a Lucky?
This is bullshit!
Football is a sport for eleven people, no matter how strong one person is, he cannot achieve this kind of change.
But they can be sure that Lucky is the source of change!
So, what the **** is this guy doing?
"I still don't understand. We have tried this lineup before. Song and Ramsey are the midfielders. Arteta doesn't retreat to defend, but I'm sure that this effect was not played at all!"
"That's right! The tactics are the same tactics, and there is only one change in the personnel structure, but why are there two completely different effects?"
"Could it be that Le's long pass had an effect?"
"Impossible! Two feet in one game, and that's not a reason!"
"Maybe his steals made Arteta play more at ease?"
"Before we also asked Arteta not to retreat and defend, and in the personal performance of the two games, he has not changed much except for stability and organization. This is not a reason!"
"Robin broke out?"
Other coaches look like a fool.
"Robin's outbreak can only radiate offense, and how can the defense become solid?"
"Guys, it's not a single change, but for a reason we don't understand, it's a whole chain reaction change. We must find out why!"
The coaches are so sad!
Their dismantling analysis of one player and one player, there is no change in tactics, playing methods, and positions.
But why is it combined like this?
What is the reason?
The coaches started to shave their hair.
Wenger also frowned, thinking about the root cause.
But no matter how you analyze it from the perspective of tactics and lineup, you can't find the reason.
He rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, and turned his head. He found that his friend, assistant coach Patrice, was staring at a certain document intently, and the one who looked at it was ecstatic.
Wenger couldn't help raising his eyebrows and said, "Have you found the reason?"
As soon as the voice fell, all the coaches turned their heads in unison.
They are like cats full of curiosity. They can't get an answer. That's a pain.
Patrice looked up just to see the fierce eyes of the coaches.
As if he would not give up without giving a reasonable explanation,
In this regard, Patrice smiled and said; "We are all thinking about the problem too complicated, there is no need to rise to the tactical level."
"The tactics are still the same tactics, but there have been some numerical increases on the basis!"
The coaches said in unison; "What value?"
Patrice smiled, raised his index finger and said, "Run the distance!"
slammed the table, and Patrice laughed loudly; "This is the data that came out, not the tactics or any other reason, but the change that came out of running with their feet!"
After finishing speaking, Patrice got up and went to the tactical board, where he affixed eleven red buttons, forming a 4-2-3-1 formation.
Immediately, he pushed the front four buttons forward, and protruded another button from the position of the back waist.
"This is our previous way of attacking, throwing in five main attacking players when attacking, using quick passing and cutting coordination to break down the opponent's goal."
He pointed to the center circle and the back line; "At the same time, the back guard pressed forward to protect this area."
"This allows us to form an aggressive formation with overcrowded fronts and empty rear defenses."
Immediately, he changed the red buttons and rearranged them.
is still a five-man frontcourt, but there is an extra red button in the middle circle area, and the four defenders are still in their own half, in an arc.
He picked up the extra button in the middle circle and said: "This is the key, this button represents Le, when other people attack, Le stands in this area and wanders constantly, remember it is wandering! Le's interception awareness order He's strong enough to protect the area, and even pulls right in front of him when attacking!"
"At this time, our staffing is distributed in all corners, and the last protection mechanism of Lele is standing in the middle circle."
Playing with the red button representing Le Kai, Patrice said, "This is a big gate. When the opponent destroys or counterattacks, he will become the first line of defense. Le's excellent interception awareness makes him enough to be in the first place. Time to find the spot and control it, giving the defense enough time to react."
"The next step is the key!"
After reminding Patrice, he pulled back the two flanks and the three buttons on the back, together with the buttons representing Lucky, from the front court, and said;
"When Le was buying time, the other three had already begun to prepare, Arshavin, Walcott, Ramsey and Le, these four returned at full speed."
He pulled the four buttons back and stuffed them into the penalty area, filling the penalty area to the fullest.
"We can form a defensive network of eight people, and eight people will be stuffed into the penalty area. Trust me, no one will choose to fight hard!"
The coaches were dumbfounded.
They didn't expect the root of everything to be so simple as 'running'?
"What is their average running distance per game?" Wenger asked suddenly.
Patras shook his head and said; "I couldn't record all of them, but Le and Ramsey's half-court running distance was no less than 7 kilometers, and it was the second half!"
The coaches fell silent.
What is the longest running distance in a single game in the Premier League?
14.05km!
And now Lekai and Ramsey have contributed 7 kilometers in the second half, which means that in the first half with plenty of stamina, they ran even more desperately.
These two may have even exceeded the distance of a single run of 14 kilometers.
Football is a running sport.
All offense and defense also need to be done on the run.
It can be said that this is the most fundamental factor.
It's just that it's too common, and they all forgot to have this attribute!
"Why didn't we play before, because we didn't run enough!" Patrice criticized; "We can see that Song will always join the attack, sometimes even a little aggressive, but he will only rush forward, Will not choose to return to defense!"
"Guys, laziness is contagious!"
"As a defensive midfielder, Song did not return to the defense, so Arshavin and Walcott naturally gave up!"
"And this lineup Song can't play!"
Patrice said loudly; "He doesn't have such a top-level stealing and interception awareness and a tough and desperate style!"
"In my opinion, the latter is even more valuable than the former!"
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Wenger, who nodded calmly.
At this time, Wenger is no longer pursuing technical football too much. Under multiple blows, Wenger has gradually begun to look for changes after self-reflection.
At the end of a day of training, the players left.
Although the massacre was just a few days ago, the expressions of the Arsenal players at this time became much brighter.
Maybe because of the changes in this training match, the overall atmosphere was much more relaxed.
Even General Fan, who has always been bitter and resentful, showed a happy expression and even hummed a song.
Obviously this scrimmage was pretty cool.
And Lekai also gained a certain recognition from the first team players through this training game.
At least, they won't ignore themselves like before.
Many players such as Walcott, Ramsey, Mertesacker, Szczesny and others took the initiative to communicate with Lekai.
Of course, some people don't like Lucky.
Alexander-Song's face was very ugly, and Lekai's changes in the main team made him feel very bad.
In addition to the sense of urgency, there was also a hint of anger, so with a gloomy face, he shook his head and left.
In this regard, Van Persie also wanted to adjust, but Song did not appreciate it at all.
Van Persie wanted to act like a captain for the first time, but was closed, and couldn't help being a little embarrassed.
But he still praised Lucky.
Today, Lucky's two long passes are both comfortable and tricky.
If he hadn’t started a little slower, he might have turned it into a goal. In this training match, he could also score two goals.
Of course, he doesn't care about the goal in the training match. What he cares about is whether Lekai can pass the ball to himself in the game like today!
All of a sudden, there were a lot of people who were delivering artillery shells.
Van Persie is naturally happy.
Lucky was about to leave after packing up.
After training, Chamberlain disappeared.
This guy has been a little demoralized since that game.
has apparently not recovered from the blow of that carnage.
But Lucky couldn't help with this kind of thing, Chamberlain could only adjust it himself.
Walking out of the training room, Lucky did not go in the direction of the gate, but came to the railing on the side and chose to climb over the wall.
There were still many angry Arsenal fans blocking the door.
Others drive away without any danger.
Lucky was alone and wearing an Arsenal jersey. He wasn't sure if the angry Arsenal fans would take him out.
It will be miserable if you are surrounded and beaten.
For this reason, he still chooses to jump over the wall!
After all, safety comes first!
