In my motherland, there is a philosophy called Tai Chi, which means the center of space.
Tai Chi has yin and yang, black and white, black is yin, and white is yang. The two intermingle and circulate with each other. There is yang in yin and yin in yang, so on the Tai Chi picture, you can see yin and yang eyes.
The philosophical influence of Tai Chi is very broad, not only applicable to many aspects, but also applicable to football.
Offense and defense, ball control and space control, mid lane and side lanes ...
These contradictions on the football field are like the yin and yang sides of Tai Chi, seemingly out of place, but in fact they can blend with each other.
It ’s like defense. Many years ago, many people were arguing about whether regional defense is good or man-to-man defense. But soon, they all lost. The region-to-man defense came into being and became a new kind of defense. Concept, it is an organic fusion of regional defense and man-to-man.
Today's football tactics cannot be separated from regional marking. Whether it is in sports or positioning, it is playing a decisive role. Only when everyone is accustomed to it, can't realize its existence. It even ignored it.
What I want to say is that tactics, football concepts, and playing styles are fundamentally neutral, there is no distinction between good and bad, and there is no difference between offense and defense. It is just a matter of using tactics and how people who use ideas use it .
You can play 4 forward tactics in front, but must that be an offensive?
You can also show the 460 without forward tactics, but must that be defense?
Also playing 442, some people will put 4 engineer players in the midfield, which is biased against defense, some people are all technical offense players, that is attack, but their formation is also 442, Isn't it?
This is the tactical formation, as is the concept and style!
Every time I think about a tactical problem, I always like to understand everything as a chaos, there is no offense and defense, no ball control and control space, no middle and side lanes, everything is nothing .
The advantage is that you can slowly add things to it as you like.
I can put my defense on top and even press the opponent in the half, but that is based on the premise that my team has this strength, and then I have to find a way to guarantee the opponent to the maximum. No sharp counterattacks; I can also ask my full-backs to frequently insert assists, but I have to make sure that someone will make up for him; I can also ask my forward to take heavy retreat and defensive tasks, but I Make sure someone can replace him and insert the penalty area to complete the last shot.
Everything is closely related. The construction of tactics is one ring by one ring, interlocking. Especially in the contest of top teams, there is a problem in one ring, which will affect all the people on the team.
After all, football tactics are essentially an organic whole composed of a lot of contradictions such as offense and defense, ball control and control space, side and middle, etc. If you attack, you have to defend. After all, your blind ball control can't resist the well-trained and rigorous tactics. In the final analysis, the sharp side attack still needs to rely on the middle road to complete the goal.
Therefore, how to effectively achieve balance and complete the integration of contradictions is the basis of a set of tactics.
The philosophy of Tai Chi emphasizes fusion and circulation, as is football tactics.
This is what happened in the world. It is always in a continuous cycle. Some things are gone forever, but some things are reappeared in different forms after disappearing for a while.
So if one day, 3 guards become mainstream again, I would not be surprised, if one day, Beckenbauer's free man tactics once again achieved brilliance, I would not be surprised, because this is the world.
Can be used as the head coach, it is necessary to study in depth, is the reproduced 3 guards the same as in history? Is there any difference between the replayed free man tactics and the Beckenbauer and Summerer period?
Tactics are developing, the football environment is changing, people ’s thinking is also changing, professional coaches must also follow the pace of the times, we must try some new ideas anytime, anywhere, from countless different, and even eliminated by history Among the tactics, draw on their strengths and constantly try some different ideas, blending different characteristics and advantages.
You may fail, but failure is also a contribution, because your failure may inspire others' success; you may also succeed, lead the trend of the times, initiate the change of football tactics, and then there will be some other people, for your tactics, think Come up with some ways to stop you, and then you will have to come up with some innovations on the basis of the original and try again.
The current football tactics are undoubtedly the best period in history, because we have absorbed the advantages of countless historical excellent tactics and filled in their shortcomings, and have continued to develop after a long period of refining and testing, so now Tactics are the best.
But football tactics are constantly advancing. It is best now. Two years later, three years later, ten years later, it is the **** slaughtered out.
If you want to keep up with the pace of the times, you must ask for change, dare to try and dare to innovate!

In the office of the Valdebebas training base, Yang Cheng is printing the preface of his new book on his computer.
Writing a book, the most difficult to write is a beginning.
The printed self-order, by Paul? Bayer, Benitez and others turned hands to read, and they looked at each one seriously.
"Boss, what is Tai Chi?" Raul asked with concern.
Yang Cheng smiled, "Tai Chi is an ancient philosophy in China. It is not easy to say, I will show you!"
He drew a circle on a blank sheet of paper, painted the yin and yang fish of Tai Chi, and had two eyes. Then he introduced the subtleties of Tai Chi to Raul and others. In fact, he did not study deeply. I just felt that the influence of Tai Chi was extensive and subtle.
"If you are interested, you can find a related book. I think there are two things that are good for tactics." Yang Cheng introduced with a smile. These are the two types of books he strongly recommended in the previous European professional coach training courses. , "Books related to Tai Chi, and Sun Tzu's Art of War!"
"Grandchildren's Art of War?" Zidane was stunned and smiled: "Isn't that a book of war?"
Yang Cheng nodded, "It is indeed a war warrior, but Sun Tzu's art of war is equally useful on the football field."
Said, Yang Cheng introduced the match between Sun Tzu's art of war and football.
There is an English version of Sun Tzu's Art of War in his office. He took it out and introduced it to Zidane and others according to the article on Sun Tzu's Art of War. As for Paul? Bayer and others, influenced by Yang Cheng, had already memorized several books on Chinese culture.
"For example, here, and the invincible, rushing to be empty, which means that attacking the weakest link of the enemy forces them to have to defend. Isn't that what we always encourage players to do on the football field? ? "
Luoer and others looked straight and nodded their heads. They were the first to hear that this ancient Chinese soldier's book has such use.
Seeing their reaction, Yang Cheng felt interesting. He wondered if the reporters would know all this, would these Chinese military books, cultural books, etc. be sold well in European football circles, and then What is the trend?
Paul? Bayer, Benitez and others mainly want to see what Yang Cheng writes for the first time, and then a group of people discusses these contents, raises a series of questions, or puts forward some of Yang Cheng ’s ideas. Perfect, even more in-depth.
They have worked together for so many years, and they are very familiar with each other. What Yang Cheng thinks in their hearts, and they are not clear, so they often give Yang Cheng many suggestions, or even inspire some ideas.
In the national team game week, most of the players have gone to participate in the national team game, and there are not many people left, so the training class is not easy to arrange, more depends on player self-discipline, and the coaching staff is more Gathered in Yang Cheng's office, he discussed the contents of his book and discussed some of the ideas and thoughts in the book.
This good atmosphere of discussion and research is not a small help to everyone, so they are also keen on it.
And Yang Cheng's character can sometimes be said to be radical. He wanted to write a book. After he started his head, it was difficult to stop. He wrote all day long and wrote whatever he wanted, anyway, he would sort it out in the future. Sometimes I forget to write as soon as I invest.
Wrote things for a long time, facing the computer, his eyes were tired, his blood did not circulate, and he was dizzy. Yang Cheng had to stop and stand up, seeing that the sofa area in the distance was neatly tidy, and he couldn't help laughing.
Partner is so good, Paul? Bayer knows Yang Cheng and knows that he is a person who doesn't like to clean up, but he doesn't want to see the mess, and even he has the advantage of obsessive-compulsive disorder, so he helped him clean up before he left. This can't help but let Yang Cheng feel happy.
To tell the truth, sometimes he really feels that if he loses his left and right arms, he will feel uncomfortable doing anything, because there are so many things, it is Paul? Bayer and others have done it for him privately, and even he may not even know it, which can save him a lot of trouble.
Just as he was preparing to make a cup of coffee for himself, the phone on his desk rang.
"My Lord Caesar, where are you?" Sienna came over the phone? Miller's voice.
Yang Cheng was stunned, "In Madrid!"
"Nonsense, I also know you are in Madrid, I got off the plane!" Sienna complained.
Yang Cheng immediately slapped his forehead, and scolded him damnly, forgot Sienna. She called today and said she was going to do something. She also said that she was going to pick up her plane. Forget things.
"Forget it, anyway, I don't know which woman you are fooling around, I go home by myself!" Sienna muttered.
"Wait, I'll go immediately, 5 minutes!"
Ten minutes later, Yang Cheng's Bugatti appeared outside the airport waiting hall.
I saw Sienna wearing a pair of slim jeans and a military-colored jacket signing a photo for the fans at the gate. As soon as I saw Yang Cheng's car, I got rid of the fans and got into the car and watched them. Next leave.
"Where was it just now?" As soon as she got into the car, she leaned over and smelled it on Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng was driving, and when she saw her like this, she laughed and shook her head, but unexpectedly she suddenly kissed heavily on his cheek, which was considered a sneak attack.
"Fortunately, it didn't make me smell perfume, otherwise, if ..."
"How about it?" Yang Cheng asked with a smile.
She smiled and did not answer, "Hungry, eat first!"
Yang Cheng hadn't felt before. Upon hearing it, he groaned and went directly to the Isola Bella restaurant that Yang Cheng often visits, located in the center of Madrid.
Today Isola Bella has become a famous restaurant chain with branches all over Europe, Tony? Vickino is now a full-time company boss, and Yang Cheng also owns shares in this company, which is the money he previously lent to Tony, he directly returned 30% of Yang Cheng's shares.
The two opened a box in Isola Bella and ordered several Madrid specialities.
"Why stare at me like this?" Yang Cheng asked.
"Because I am waiting for you to see me!" Sienna replied with a smile.
"What are you looking at?"
Sienna turned her head indignantly and scolded, "Dead without conscience!"
"But you have been a little bit dark recently!" Yang Cheng said.
This nizi was suddenly happy, "Of course, the sea breeze is blowing all day in Dubai, how can it not be dark?"
"How is Dubai going?" Yang Cheng asked casually.
"No problem, anyway, we are responsible for the design. Although many people say that Dubai is going to go bankrupt, but Fashion Island is a big project, and many businesses have signed contracts with them. It is impossible to postpone."
There is still a time limit in the previously signed contract. Dubai must not dare to delay the construction period. The cost to Yang Cheng is also generous. Sienna and Heidi? Krum now lives in Dubai whenever he has time.
Anyway, they can stay in the ultra-luxury sailing hotel for free, and they all regard the supervision there as a tourist.
"This time, it was the German Picture News that joined hands with a publishing giant to hope to cooperate with you. They hope to be able to publish your upcoming books, as well as your autobiography and several other supporting books." Sienna said.
Yang Cheng shook his head, "I never thought I would have an autobiography!"
Autobiography is actually an ordinary thing. Many people, whether they are players or coaches, have autobiography, because they will have many fans, plus the topic of privacy in the autobiography, so the sales of books are all Yes, Real Madrid, for example, has worked with publishers to make autobiography for a series of famous players.
A long time ago, someone proposed to cooperate with Yang Cheng, hoping that he would have his autobiography and supporting books, with his influence and fame, plus him and Charlize? Theron, Sienna? The relationship between Miller and others, if you add something in it, it will definitely sell well.
And the thing between Yang Cheng and them is simply an inexhaustible ammunition storehouse. Anything written and written can be sold well. Therefore, many publishers hope to cooperate with Yang Cheng.
"They promised to invite Gran? Nuck to write!" Sienna said.
"Grand?" Yang Cheng smiled, this guy is already mixed up in Germany now.
"We also think that this idea is good!"
Yang Cheng thought for a while, "I don't like being exposed to privacy!" He still felt bad.
"Then write something else, privacy will be taken in one stroke, or pick some trivial things." Sienna laughed, "their idea is to make a series, I talked to them, I think the plan and attitude are good , And Gran? Nack is also a trusted writer, right? "
Yang Cheng thought for a while and nodded, "That's true."
Gran? Nake has had a long-term relationship with him. Yang Cheng knows better than anyone about this person.
"You nod, then I promise them!" Sienna grumbled.
Yang Cheng saw her delicate appearance, moved her heart, and reached out and squeezed gently on her face.
Sienna's watery eyes seemed to be seeping water, staring at Yang Cheng, deliberately making an impatient appearance, "Hurry up and eat, let's go home and do serious things!"

The two-week national team match day is definitely not an easy task for the La Liga team.
First, the team training cannot be unified. Second, after the national team game, there is an intensive one-week double match, followed by the two-week national team match day in October, and then a series of one-week double matches The schedule is extremely intensive, and it is a test for any team.
For Real Madrid, there is another big test is that they will also participate in the World Championships in Japan in December. Although there are only two games, but they travel thousands of kilometers back and forth. For Real Madrid players, they will also It's a big test.
Yang Cheng has told Chris closely? Schmidt also allowed Michelle ’s scout team to track the club ’s players, understand their game, and track their physical condition, while Chris would submit a player ’s body the first time the player returned to the team. The situation was reported to Yang Cheng to prepare him for the second round of the league, challenging the Spaniard away.
This Barcelona rival team is not simple at all. Real Madrid has suffered a loss for him this season. It has always been a hard stubble role. Now Real Madrid and Barcelona have won in the first round, and Barcelona challenged He in the second round. Tafe, of course, Yang Cheng didn't want Real Madrid to lose points and fall behind from the beginning.
According to Yang Cheng's plan, the league must use all means to grab points, strive to establish a leading advantage from the beginning, it is best to be able to throw a certain distance from Barcelona, so that there is enough advantage to continue in the second half of the league Persist in multi-line operations.
But he also made the worst plan, that is, Barcelona bite Real Madrid, or even take the lead, then the La Liga title competition will completely become a willpower and tenacious contest.
So after the players ended the national team game and returned to the club, Yang Cheng called on them to clenched their teeth and support this difficult period, and he made a rotation arrangement, those who returned to South America to participate in the game , And some players who participated in too many games in the national team, resulting in poor physical fitness and condition, were not taken to Barcelona by him.
This made Tong Multimedia say that Yang Cheng took a Real Madrid second team to Barcelona to challenge the Spaniards away, but Barcelona was different. Guardiola tried his best to lead all the main team to Madrid.
But no one thought that the development of the following situation is still far beyond everyone's expectations!
