"Andre, pay attention to the timing of passing"

"Ashley, cut more ribs, hold the ball, be brave and bolder"

"Oh, Yaya, don't stick to the ball, pass it quickly"

“Beautiful precise positioning, Brad, great”

Roland's loud voice was everywhere in the comprehensive training area of ​​Theobord training base. Since this guy came to Theobord training base, he seemed to have been completely renewed, and he was very proactive and his voice became louder.

Since Ye Qiu's Chelsea period, many trainings were left to Roland to be responsible, while Mauro Tasotti assisted and helped, but more often, Ye Qiu and Mauro Tasotti were studying the team's adjustments and tactical offensive and defensive system.

Training is very important because everything in training will be reflected in the competition.

It can even be said that training is actually a process of accumulating energy, and every football game is an explosion of this kind of energy. The more you accumulate in training, the greater the power you burst out during the game. Of course, it does not mean that the greater the training volume, the better. The most important thing is to make scientific and reasonable arrangements, otherwise it will backfire.

Ye Qiu and the coaching team have already accurately arranged every detail and project in the training, and even the time to one minute, so it is no longer a big problem whether Ye Qiu personally directs it.

Roland is responsible for the coordination, Monitz and Murensteen are responsible for the assistance, Peter Brandt is responsible for the detection and analysis, and Frans Hawke is responsible for the goalkeeper. Ye Qiu's entire coaching team has worked together for many years, and they have already had a very tacit understanding of each other's division of labor and cooperation, so Ye Qiu feels that standing by and observing can make you discover something better.

Because Messi, Mascherano, Cavani, Vargas, Alves, Thiago Silva and Marcelo are all not here and have participated in the Copa America, Ye Qiu is also trying more and inspecting players in training.

For example, sometimes, in some training sessions, Ye Qiu would arrange Gareth Bale, Ashavin, Ashley Young, and even Eden Hazard, Neymar and others to the winger to examine their performance.

Because it is a team training, although it is very intense, everyone's movements are very restrained, so even young players dare to take the ball in front of the big brother to make movements, and even make decisive breakthroughs one-on-one.

Ye Qiu even applauded and cheered some young players from time to time, which made the big guys feel embarrassed.

In the midfield, Mascherano is not there. Ye Qiu has tried Yaya Toure and Lucas, and also tried to let Varane and Pogba, two kids, who are only fourteen or fifteen years old, play as a midfielder. Anyway, it is a competition in the team. So what if you are young, so what if you are abused? They all have the attitude of training and learning. This is beneficial to young players, and they can learn more.

"We discussed this last season, and Peter Brandt also gave data, believing that Van Persie's running range will be 50 or even more than Van Persie, which will inevitably cause a huge change in our midfield and frontcourt and even full-backs to insert the offensive system."

According to statistics from Tottenham Hotspur last season, Van Nicht runs around six kilometers per game on average, while Van Persie's run is around ten kilometers, because Van Persie pulls back after playing and switches with the left and right sides, which makes him run more distance.

In football tactics, any even extremely subtle change may trigger huge changes, just like a domino that has been knocked down, triggering a series of chain reactions, and the same is true for using Van Persie to replace Van Nie.

Because everyone who has played football knows how the opportunity comes in a football game? It's run out

If you don't run, you will never have a chance. Even Riquelme, who is regarded as being able to command the team to play football while standing, has a running range of about six kilometers in each game, or even more.

Of course, Van Nie's running distance does not mean that he is not working hard or hard. After all, his characteristic is to be at the forefront, so he is targeted to press the opponent's defense line and the central defender running. He rarely interacts with the two wings and midfielders, and more often rushes out of the opportunity in front and waits for his teammates to pass the ball.

As for Fanny's teammates, the ball is basically passed to Fanny's feet, just to see if he has a chance to kick.

This is also the time when Ye Qiu replaced Van Persie with Van Persie last season, and he cooperated with Ribery. Ribery made a straight pass, but he stopped himself, but Van Persie used his personal ability to dribble the ball and then suddenly knocked back. As a result, Ribery missed such a goal that was close to him.

In the past, I played around Fanny's point, whether it was the ball path or the ball was transferred, it was very tiring to play, because when everyone was flowing, one of the points, especially the crucial front point, was fixed, and the others would feel very, very hard because you had to accommodate him.

So Ye Qiu now wants to adjust the team so that the entire team's offensive system will adopt a more smooth style of playing, because more running, more opportunities will be, and more response points will be when passing and receiving the ball, the team can play smoother and the more opportunities it creates.

Of course, this is a theoretically ideal thing, and there are still differences in how to operate it.

"I think the goal after Van Persie played in the last round of last season was very interesting."

Ye Qiu and Mauro Tasotti both stood on the sidelines, seemingly watching the players' training, but they were discussing it.

"When our fullback is inserted, it is easy to form a local numerical advantage between the winger and the forward who pulls to the wing. We can cooperate with a quick and simple pass and receive ball, using the pass or personal ability to tear the opponent's defense and create a threat."

"When we gain an advantage on one side, their defense will inevitably be pulled by us, and the center of gravity will naturally shift to this side. At this time, the back of our two players in the midfield and the targeted empty cuts of the winger on the other side are very threatening."

After hearing this, Mauro Tasotti nodded and said, "And our midfielders have strong ability to transfer balls across a large range."

"Yes," Ye Qiu praised. Tasotti thought of himself. Generally speaking, in a football game, when you attract the opponent's defense to one side, and then suddenly a big foot is transferred to the other side. At this time, the opponent's defense line will inevitably have loopholes in the process of rapid transfer, and this is the attacker's opportunity.

Everyone knows what is the main thing to attack?

Time difference

I'm ready to attack, but your defense is not ready, then you're dead

Therefore, the moment of the offense and defense transition is very important, that is, why evaluating a team's defensive ability must be the counter-attack strength and defensive organization he invested in the moment he lost the ball, because as long as you do not allow the opponent to counterattack immediately after intercepting the ball, try to delay the opponent's offense, and buy time for your defense to organize defense, then your defense must be very solid.

So, what do you care about offense and defense? It depends on both sides' ability to utilize and grasp the time difference

Many people say that Tottenham Hotspur's team's defense was very bad last season, and even attributed all the guilt to Thiago Silva's high defense. However, in Ye Qiu's opinion, the team's performance last season was not very ideal. One of the important reasons is that they did poorly in delaying, that is, the chances of being played by the opponent are very high.

Why is this happening?

When you attack to the frontcourt but concede the ball, what players can delay the opponent's attack?

Offensive players, right?

So, among Tottenham Hotspur's frontcourt offensive players last season, Van Nie had the least running. Although he played a great role in the team's offense and scored the most goals, his role in defense is not high because he did not participate in the system of counter-attacking on the spot and delaying the opponent's offense.

Don't underestimate the difference between just one person. You can ask any professional head coach, if you are one goal behind and one person less than the opponent, choose one of two situations, and ensure that all head coaches choose the former.

In a pass cooperation, there is only one coordination route for two people. Are there only two of them?

Wrong, because everything in football is relative, not absolute, and more importantly, it is liquid.

In other words, when you have three mobile players doing the pass and catch the ball, the player holding the ball has two pass routes, but when he passes the ball to one of his teammates, the teammate also has two pass routes. When he passes again, there are still two pass routes, which is a geometric increase.

This is true for offense and in defense.

When two people participate in defense and three people participate in defense, there is not just a gap between one person, but a very big gap.

This is also why Mauro Tassoti said that Tottenham Hotspur's offensive system will undergo a huge change this season. Van Nie, who has run less and is relatively fixed, will change greatly if he joins Van Persie, and it can even be said to be earth-shaking. It depends on whether Ye Qiu and the team can work together to achieve results.

"Whether it is Ashavin, Gareth Bale or Ashley Young, they obviously lack the tacit understanding with Van Persie and Ribery. Messi and others, as well as Fabregas behind him, and even more in line with Alves." Mauro Tasotti felt that the other one in the trident was obviously Messi.

After hearing this, Ye Qiu smiled and sighed, "That's right, but we don't know how Messi's condition after playing Perfect Continental Cup, so we must have a second plan. After all, we have to guard against mid-season injuries."

After hearing this, Mauro Tasotti smiled. Ye Qiu is sometimes very bold, but he is good at preparing for the future.

I still remember he once said something, and it was said that it was a proverb from their hometown. When you think you are the best, it is also the most likely time for you to have problems. Even if you are a thief, you have to be careful of food and grass for three days.

Sometimes, Chinese culture is really interesting

Tottenham Hotspur started training! Two weeks later, the team faced a team from Luton, north of London, at the White Hart Lane Stadium, Luton, the current third-level team in England.

Luton's team is not very high and is not very strong in the League One, but the youth training team is doing well. It is a well-known youth training camp in England, but it cannot escape the end of some small teams and is constantly poached. For example, Wilshere, who are currently playing for Arsenal youth team, as well as Upson, Curtis Davis, Matthew Taylor and others, all from Luton's youth training camp.

Tottenham Hotspurs arranged the tactics they focused on in this game. The goalkeeper was Cech, the defense was Gareth Bale, Hangland, Kompani and Aveloa, the midfield was Beckham, Yaya Toure and Fabregas, among which Yaya Toure was responsible for the drag, and the tridents in the frontcourt were Ribery, Van Persie and Ashavin.

Although this is just a very ordinary warm-up match, it was the premiere of the team in the new season, and it was at the White Hart Lane Stadium. In addition, the ticket price for this game was very low, so Tottenham fans were very interested. Not only did they buy the tickets short, but they even had crowded before the game. Many fans who came to the scene regretted that they could not buy tickets.

No one expected that Tottenham Hotspur's market would be so hot in the new season, which probably has a lot to do with Tottenham's outstanding performance last season and the team's style of playing has always been quite likable.

Before the opening, Tottenham Hotspur and sponsor Adidas also held a brief launch ceremony for the new season jersey. This season's Tottenham Hotspur's home jersey is still paired with a white top and black bottom pants, but this time Adidas obviously designed it with more care.

Tottenham's jersey collar uses a V-shaped collar, but on both sides of the neckline, a small V-shaped shape is broken again, making the entire neckline look dynamic and fashionable, and symmetrical with the pure white jersey. The neckline is all black, but the edges of the neckline are outlined with white lines.

At the same time, the cuffs are covered with black, and the edges are drawn with white lines. Some of the underarms are also black, but the front, chest, back and hem of the jersey are all white, which makes there not many lines and will not give people too much annoyance. Instead, it feels that the embellishment is just right.

The whole color combination looks very fashionable, especially the team emblem on the chest, Adidas on the right chest, and Vodafone's English words in the middle. After careful design, it looks very pleasing and has a unique fashion atmosphere.

Not only that, the black pants are also decorated with reasonable white lines, while the shoes and socks are a bit black and white zebra stripes. It looks like the whole design is in line with each other. Ye Qiu and the management are very satisfied with it.

The team's away jersey is sky blue, which is also a very likable and popular color. The neckline design is the same, but the color patterns are different. The neckline is white, and there are two black patterns on the shoulders, one front and one back, intersecting at the shoulders and arms, extending to the cuffs.

The team's logo, Adidas and Vodafone logos, are all made of black, and the shorts and shoes and socks are also made of sky blue and black stripes.

The team's goalkeeper jersey is burgundy and purple, while the team's third away jersey is dark blue with red lines and stripes. Adidas even carefully designed the team's player training and coaching staff's special training.

In Eliza's words, Ye Qiu's face can still attract some fans to buy jerseys.

The entire debut ceremony was very simple and short. After the debut, the competition was officially kicked off.

After the game started, Luton entered the game with a pace that was obviously faster than Tottenham Hotspur, because Tottenham Hotspur had just experienced a two-week pre-match physical fitness reserve training camp丨The players' physical condition was still not very good and had not been fully adjusted, so they were not in good shape during the game.

But after fifteen minutes of the game, Tottenham Hotspur finally showed his overwhelming advantage to the enthusiastic home team fans, began to stabilize the situation, grasp the initiative and possess the ball in the game.

One thing that must be mentioned is that although Tottenham Hotspur has advantages in ball control, Ye Qiu has always adhered to a principle no matter who the opponent he meets. He has always believed that the most reasonable ball control should be kept between 550%, especially for an offensive team like Tottenham Hotspur that needs to use running and passing and receiving to tear the defense line, too high ball control rate may not be a good thing, on the contrary, it may be a bad thing.

In the 18th minute of the game, Tottenham Hotspur knocked on Luton's goal.

Ribery dribbled the ball to the bottom line on the left, winning a corner kick opportunity for Tottenham Hotspur. Beckhannham made a free throw, and Hangland in the penalty area headed the ball, opening the first record for Tottenham Hotspur.

This is also a very important move in Tottenham's set-piece tactics last season. Beckham's precise free kick and Hangland's physical advantage, the combination of the two is amazing.

After the balance was broken, Tottenham Hotspur seemed to be infected by enthusiastic fans on the scene. In addition, Luton obviously felt that since it was a warm-up match, there was no need to play too conservatively, so the two teams began to become more open.

But it is obvious that all the players in Tottenham Hotspur are generally not very ideal. Whether it is Van Persie, Ribery, Beckham and Fabregas, the state of these players is obviously relatively average, so although they use their own strength to control their advantages, they have never been able to score again.

In the second half, Ye Qiu replaced eight players in one breath, including Modric, who just joined the team this season. He replaced Beckham and formed three midfielders with Fabregas and Lucas. This was also a conscious adjustment and change by Ye Qiu. He wanted to try out how Modric cooperated with these two players.

As for the division of labor between Modric and Fabregas, the former is to drive the ball and support it, while the latter is to pass the ball and insert the back. The division of labor between the two is still different.

But they should be not familiar with each other enough and do not know Tottenham's tactics very well. Modric's performance is average, with many passes and receiving mistakes, and it looks a bit slow, which is somewhat out of place with Tottenham's overall fast pace, but he still has two highlights.

Once, he took the ball in the middle and broke through the clamping of two opponents, but he didn't pass the ball well when he passed it straight, and it was directly intercepted. He was directly intercepted; another time, he was crossed the ball against the left and right side of the opponent's central defender after the interception, and showed his good foot skills both times.

But Tottenham Hotspur never broke Luton's goal again, and the 0 score remained until the end.
Chapter completed!
