597 I Can't Practice Genius
597 You can’t practice genius
"I don't know why I can always pass the ball. Maybe you're right. If you give me the same chance again, I may not be able to pass the ball, but I dare say that I will use another way to get the ball to the right side!"
In the comprehensive interview area after the game, Guti smiled and answered during an interview.
The Golden Wolf, who had just beaten for more than ten minutes, looked very tired, but in fact, during these ten minutes, he was not as good as Raul who had hit the whole audience. I really doubt that this guy has the right to say he is tired!
"I feel very comfortable with the head coach's tactics. He told me that he would prepare a set of formations and tactics for me, so I want to repay him with the best performance. I hope to continue this state. The amount of playing time is not important to me. What is important is that it can help the team!"
As for his friend, Raul has recovered from his form this season, scoring consecutive goals, and is not inferior to Villa, who is also performing well, and Guti also gave a very high evaluation.
"Raul has always been the top attacker, but since Boske, no coach knows how to use him. Now that Yang Cheng has come to the team, he has given Raul a good space to play, so he performed well and scored goals one after another. I agree with what head coach Mr. Yang Cheng said, Raul and Villa do not conflict."
Someone immediately came out among the reporters at the scene, "Guti, there are many Real Madrid fans calling for you on the official website, thinking that Real Madrid should let you and Xavi Alonso play at the same time and play dual-core tactics like Barcelona. What do you think personally?"
Guti thought for a while, "The head coach has the final say in how to arrange the tactics. I don't have that power. I will fully support the head coach's decision, but I think Real Madrid and Barcelona are different."
"I remember, at a meeting at the beginning of the season, the head coach told us that Barcelona had persisted with their ball-handling tactics for more than ten or twenty years, and that's what happened today. If Real Madrid wanted to follow Barcelona's path, they would not be able to catch up with Barcelona for a hundred years, so we must have our own tactical style!"
"In my opinion, we have many similarities with Barcelona's tactics. For example, we emphasize technical details, pass-through cooperation, triangular routine advancement, etc. This is the common point of the world's top tactics, but we have huge differences in concepts. We have more forward passes, we play faster and simpler, and run without the ball and support more."
"We are constantly stressed in tactics that we cannot leave the ball at our feet for too long, we must pass it quickly, and our offense is more about how to ensure the ball is quickly and smoothly passed in the frontcourt, while Barcelona's tactics are more about ensuring stable pass and ball handling rate, so they have more crosses."
The reporters could see that it was just that they were more willing to say that Real Madrid's tactics were learning Barcelona, because the latter was at its peak, while Real Madrid was just starting out. More importantly, it was easier to attract people in this way.
So in the newspaper, you can see remarks and reports like XX II and XX successors all day long.
The century derby is coming soon, and everyone has no doubt that this will be a confrontation between Real Madrid and Yang Cheng and Barcelona, but this confrontation itself is not on the same starting line, because Barcelona is at its peak, but Real Madrid has just started. Whether it is tactical stability and proficiency, or the overall quality of the players, Real Madrid will lose to Barcelona.
The only one who can take advantage is the head coach, Yang Cheng defeated Rijkaard!
Regarding the upcoming century derby, Yang Cheng said that Real Madrid will do their best to win in the game!
However, it is obvious that he is unwilling to talk more about Century Derby because he does not want to put too much pressure on the players. Instead, Yang Cheng felt very puzzled about what Spanish head coach Aragones said when he announced the Spanish training list when he only recruited three Real Madrid players.
"I don't know why Aragonese thinks that Raul will be an obstacle to Spain's tactical reform. Maybe he is just trying to make an excuse and scapegoat for the poor performance of the World Cup, but we should see that Raul has never been a problem with any head coach or any team."
"Many people outside say that the fewer Real Madrid players, the better Spain will perform. They also give examples of the 1950 World Cup, the 1964 and 1988 European Cups, there were very few Real Madrid players, but they performed well, I think that's nonsense. The key is how the head coach combines this team."
If Aragonese just talks about Raul and does not question Real Madrid's internal tactics, then Yang Cheng would not say anything, but his Spanish coach said that Raul hindered Spain's tactical reform and that Ramos could not play in Real Madrid, so he should leave quickly so that he would have the opportunity to continue to gain a foothold in the Spanish national team. Yang Cheng felt annoyed.
"Since 2004, Aragones took over Spain, he has been doing the same thing repeatedly, that is, how to move the style of Barcelona, which was known as an artistic football indicator at the time, into the Spanish national team. From player selection to training methods, and even tactical use, he has copied Barcelona!"
"One thing he said is right. Spain's tactics were not good in the past because it was too much emphasized that the two wings flew together and did not keep up in the middle, but now he has reached another extreme, overemphasizing the attack and ball possession rate in the middle, and overly obsessed with short pass cooperation, but he has never understood one thing. Where is the success of Barcelona's 433?"
The grudges between Yang Cheng and Barcelona, as well as his winning rate against Barcelona, make people have to admit that he should be the head coach in the world who is most familiar with Barcelona's tactics.
"The most important part of Barcelona's tactics is the crossing in front of the opponent's 32-meter area. We can see that the reason why Rijcalde is more successful than Van Gaal is because he has established an effective crossing system in front of the opponent's 32-meter area. This is not only relying on Xavi and Iniesta, but also Ronaldinho and Messi's incisive support."
In Yang Cheng's previous life, one of the important reasons why Guardiola was later more successful than Rijcard's record was that when Barcelona's dual-core tactics were curbed and when big names such as Ronaldinho began to become lazy and then lost their effect, he asked Busquets to play the midfielder, giving the opponent's cross-transfer in front of the 32-meter area a deep connection point.
In other words, Xavi and Iniesta can pass and get the ball in front of the opponent's 32-meter area at any time. Once you don't find a chance to move forward, you will pass it back to Busquets. The latter will pass the ball to the 32-meter area again through combing to continue to ensure a cross-pass in this area.
Cross-transmission is for pulling and finding opportunities!
This is the most important key to Barcelona’s entire set of tactics!
But this is something that the Spanish national team cannot learn!
Aragonese reflected on the European Cup in 2008 that Spain played the 4141 tactic, which was strictly more balanced, because there was a sweeper Senna later. Later, after Bosque came to power, Spain began to continue to advance towards the technical school, which was changed to the 433 tactic, but it was not completely copied by Barcelona.
"I respect Aragones very much. He is a head coach who emphasizes spiritual qualities. This is the same, but I have to remind him that it is not difficult to crack Barcelona's tactics. As long as they can ensure that they cut off their crossing in the 32-meter area, Barcelona's tactics will become boring crossing games."
In theory, it is indeed easy, but it is hard to say how many teams can do this. However, when fighting verbal battles, Yang Cheng certainly has no need to say this.
"I always emphasize that the interesting thing about football tactics lies in inclusiveness, rather than blindly pursuing one thing, because you are too obsessed with something, for example, always chasing the ball possession rate, one game is good, two games are fresh, but after ten games and twenty games, it is too monotonous, and you will be sleepy!"
"Many people say that I learn from Barcelona, which is an overestimation of my players and Real Madrid. I never thought of playing 433. With our current lineup, we can't afford 433. We will stick to 4231!"
Many fans praise 433, but in fact, the 433 tactics must be equipped with a powerful lineup. Without the top lineup, you can't afford 433 at all, so 433 has always been popular and cannot be as popular as 442, 4231 and other tactics.
But it is hard to say which one is better or worse!
"If I want to talk about the tactical differences between Real Madrid and Barcelona that I hope, I think Real Madrid will be Guti, and Barcelona is Xavi. Xavi has been in the first team for 10 years and has been honed through a lot of games and has become today's passer master. But he has never been a genius. He is just a passer master, but Guti is a genius that you can't practice for ten years or even a hundred years. This is the biggest difference between our Real Madrid and Barcelona!"
"I think what Aragones really should do is not to interfere with my team, to instigate my player transfer, nor to reject players like Raul and Guti, but to think about how Spain can go its own way. I think players like Senna, Xavi Alonso should play a greater role, rather than relying on Barcelona!"
Yang Cheng's remarks caused great response in the newspaper the next day.
Spain has always had poor record. Many people have long been suspicious of Aragones' learning Barcelona's tactics, but no one can tell this analysis as bluntly as Yang Cheng. So when he said this, the public opinion that had previously opposed the Barcelona-like Spanish national team was suddenly rising again.
Their idea is also very simple. You see, Caesar said it all, and it is so clear and straightforward. If you don’t know how to change it, you will be really idiotic!
Interestingly, when Aragones started training the day after the Madrid derby, when the Spanish national team started training, when the reporter asked about his opinion on Yang Cheng's remarks, the Spanish wise man did not fight back, but instead clarified something.
"I believe Mr. Yang Cheng has heard some false media reports, which has caused some misunderstandings to me. I have never interfered in the affairs of Real Madrid. I hope I can have a good talk with Mr. Yang Cheng."
Later, when the reporter talked, Aragones said that he did not object to Yang Cheng's view on the Spanish national team's skills and tactics, and even criticized the team.
It seems to be to confirm Yang Cheng's remarks. On October 7, in Spain's match against Sweden, Aragones unexpectedly chose Alberda to play the midfielder, which made Spain indeed have a certain ball-handling advantage in the midfield and frontcourt. Even the ball-handling rate of the whole game was as high as 66, which beat Sweden only 5 shots, but defeated Spain 2:0.
As a result, Spain's record in the group stage was 1 win and 2 losses, and the qualifying situation was in danger. The outside world's doubts about Aragonese were getting louder and louder, and the problems reflected in this game were indeed as Yang Cheng said before.
When Sweden's three-middle midfielder protected his 32-meter area, Spain's ball control and crossing became boring data-shooting games. However, this move also made Yang Cheng criticized by the media close to Barcelona, believing that he was giving advice to his opponents in Spain and that he was the culprit of Spain's loss.
In response, Yang Cheng laughed and revealed it, not even giving a response!
However, this wave of criticism rekindled the battle in the league. When Real Madrid unexpectedly lost to Getafe 0-1 away in the 6th round, they reached their peak. They believed that Yang Cheng's arrival did not stop Barcelona, but ignored the impact of the national team game on Real Madrid.
In the same round, Barcelona defeated Sevilla 3-1 with Ronaldinho's double score and Messi's goal, widening the gap between the league's second-place Real Madrid widened the points to 5 points.
In the mid-week, in the Champions League group stage that challenged Bucharest Stars away, Real Madrid defeated their opponents 4-1 away with goals from Toulam, Raul, Aguero and Villa, and then won two consecutive wins in the group, ranking second after Lyon, which had three consecutive wins.
The situation in Real Madrid is indeed not optimistic now. Whether it is the league or the Champions League, the situation is not good, especially in the century-long derby that followed, Yang Cheng had to worry about the team's tactics.
…………
…………
"Are you going to have three back midfielders? Or do you want two back midfielders?"
In Yang Cheng's office, everyone threw this problem to the frowning Caesar.
If he is coaching Liverpool or Inter Milan now, there must be no such problems, but he is coaching Real Madrid, a team that has just been formed and cannot compete with the other two teams in terms of staffing or overall strength.
Not only that, in Liverpool and Inter Milan, especially in the middle and late stages, players are familiar with tactics and develop tacit understanding. In addition, they deliberately emphasize changing positions in daily training, Yang Cheng can play the team's tactics into a flower without having to worry about the team's combat effectiveness at all.
Just like Barcelona in his previous life, even if Guardiola played the tactic of no striker, 343, or even 424, Barcelona was still awesome, because they were still the same in their bones. After the players were familiar with each other and had no problem at all.
But Real Madrid is obviously not good yet, so they have to use tactics and formations to limit and regulate.
"Do you think that relying solely on Xavi Alonso and Mascherano can protect both ribs and the 32-meter area?" Yang Cheng swept to his assistant team.
The purpose of the double midfielder is to protect both ribs. When dealing with Barcelona, it is necessary to protect the 32-meter area and prevent Barcelona from making crosses and ball control at will in this area.
So, the biggest question is, can the double back midfielder complete these two tasks at the same time?
No one can answer his question because no one knows it without the practice of the competition.
Yang Cheng finally understood the difficulties Mourinho encountered in his first century derby in his previous life. He had two back midfielders or three back midfielders. If it was the latter, it would definitely be a defensive counterattack, and it might not be able to defend it. But if it was the former, the chance of winning was also very low.
So far this season, Real Madrid has been 5 points behind Barcelona. This century derby will undoubtedly be the most critical game so far, because if Real Madrid loses, the gap with Barcelona will widen to 8 points.
This will undoubtedly cast a shadow on Real Madrid's championship!
However, if you play against the defensive action, you may not be able to defend it first, because Barcelona is indeed very strong, and they will put strong pressure on Real Madrid's offensive. Second, Real Madrid's offensive tactics will definitely be weakened, especially once they are strongly oppressed by Barcelona in the game, Real Madrid may directly lead to passiveness in the whole game.
The most important thing about strong dialogue is always balance!
Mourinho's team just defeated Barcelona 1-0 at home in the third leg of the Champions League group stage in the mid-week. The Portuguese madman relied on the three midfielders that Yang Cheng mentioned before, but Chelsea's midfielder group is very different from Real Madrid's midfielder group, especially in the tactics of restraining Barcelona.
"Don't think so much, it's just a game!" Paul Baier advised.
Although Century Derby is valued by fans and management, it is just a league match with 3 points. The league has just begun. Although Real Madrid is behind, they are not completely without a chance.
"Yes, the team is starting to get better, take your time!" Redondo also advised.
To be honest, one of the important reasons why Yang Cheng’s Real Madrid is not able to get in touch at the moment is that from the beginning of the league to now, it has to be suspended for two weeks every month to serve the national team. In these two weeks, players have to go back and forth, among which Mascherano and Aguero have to fly to South America.
Under such circumstances, it is difficult for Real Madrid to have stable adjustment time. The matches are one after another, and the two matches in a week are extremely dense. There is really not much time left for Yang Cheng. It is already good that he can form a set of offensive and defensive frameworks and organize a stable defense line. After all, tactics cannot be achieved in one step.
However, this alone is undoubtedly not as good as Barcelona.
But what's so bad is that in the eyes of fans all over the world, the target of Real Madrid must be Barcelona!
"Notify the team that all first teams will be on holiday on the 21st!" Yang Cheng thought for a while and said.
Paul Bayer nodded and agreed. Yang Cheng had not done such a thing as a holiday the day before the competition.
"By the way, when the reporter asked, he said you were going to move?" Benitez asked suddenly.
Everyone immediately laughed. This fat man was getting more and more humorous, especially the two pieces of fat meat that trembled with his cheeks when he smiled, which was so funny!
