903 Think Tank
Everyone firmly believes that behind every successful team, there will be an unknown professional team providing services to them. These teams are not famous and have never appeared in the newspaper, but they play a crucial role in the team.
Yang Cheng was praised by the media and countless professionals as the most forward-looking head coach in the world. He was one of the first head coaches to introduce high technology into the football field, and he was also the first head coach to bring high technology into the training ground and into the court.
From Inter Milan to Liverpool to Real Madrid, Yang Cheng's coaching resume is undoubtedly brilliant and successful, but every time he goes to a place, he can succeed in coaching the team, while also expanding the scale of himself and the research center behind him, and his management is becoming more and more outstanding.
Everyone said that many games actually had a final say before the whistle was blew. The two sides had an unfair contest from the beginning. To some extent, this sentence represents the meticulous preparation and the advantages and disadvantages of intelligence. Whoever grasps more accurate intelligence first will often have a better chance of controlling the opportunity.
On the floor next to the headquarters of the German Football Association, an office provided for the intelligence analysis team established by Yang Cheng was specially opened. All software and hardware facilities have been in place and installed, and 80 student elites and 10 research experts have also been in place.
They sat opposite Yang Cheng, and they all looked at Yang Cheng on the stage with concentration. Some of them were younger than Yang Cheng, and some were older than him, but they all looked at him attentively and listened to him.
Yang Cheng's appeal is extraordinary. When students from the University of Sport of Cologne and the University of Leipzig heard that Yang Cheng and his research center were recruiting interns. The registration was very enthusiastic. In just less than five days, more than 300 students who met the requirements signed up. You should know that these requirements are very professional and very high, and it is not easy to be able to meet them.
In the selection hosted by Jurgen Buschmann and Tim Hank, most of them were eliminated, and 80 elite students were eventually left behind, all of whom were good at different fields, but they all had to form a think tank for the German national team.
Yes, think tank, this is the title Yang Cheng gave to this team.
"Based on the intelligence and information I have received, every country has teams like us, both big and small, but we are far ahead in terms of numbers and professionalism, that is, you are all elites!"
Yang Cheng gave a compliment at the beginning, which made many people present feel happy.
"I believe you all should have learned a little about me and my team!"
Yang Cheng's words made everyone present nod, which is already familiar to German football, especially for college students majoring in sports.
"The first club I coached was called Chemnitz. Now I am playing in the Bundesliga. When I went to Kaiserslautern, there were only a handful of coaching staff in Kaiserslautern at that time. But I asked at that time that I would divide the work and clarify the responsibilities of each coaching staff member."
"The team of the Kaiserslautern coaching staff was still by my side for years. Tim Hank, who was in charge of physical training, Monitz and Murenstin, who were good at technical craftsmanship, Chris Schmidt, who was good at rehabilitation and sports science, Paul Bayer, who was good at defensive organization and training execution, and our goalkeeper coach Deepalma, who was the team I joined when I was coaching Inter Milan."
"I remember, someone thought it was useless to hire so many professional coaches. Tim Hank only knew how to train physical fitness, technology, tactics, etc. He didn't know how to train him? Monitz and Murenstin also knew how to train players. Do they know how to train? "
Yang Cheng used an almost joking statement to the elites of the two prestigious universities below that he got an uproar from them because this view seems so funny now.
"However, according to the information I have obtained, by 2010, in the Bundesliga and Bundesliga, the various professional talents in the coaching staff have increased from the pitifully few 25 people to the current 278 people. Do you realize what this means?"
"It's not just Germany, but in Italy, the Premier League, and La Liga, the increasingly professional huge coaching team lineup has become the standard configuration. Ferguson complained to me before, saying that it was the atmosphere I brought out, which led to dozens of people in his coaching team at Manchester United. Some of them couldn't remember their names. I asked jokingly, is it easy to use?"
Everyone present burst into laughter because they were all beneficiaries of the trend brought by Yang Cheng, and many of them would enter some clubs or other sports fields after graduation.
For them, being able to intern in Yang Cheng’s research center will undoubtedly be their most proud capital when they leave campus and stand alone in the future, because in the field of sports, the Caesar Research Center represents authority, similar to Microsoft in the software field.
"I have always adhered to one principle, that is, no one is born to understand everything, and for some areas and things that I don't understand and are not good at, then leave it to those who are good at it. So many people asked me, why do you have today? My answer is always the same. The reason why I have today is not because of me alone, but my players, club management, and the entire huge operating team behind me."
"From now on, everyone here will be included!"
Yang Cheng's words immediately received a burst of warm applause, because everyone could feel that Yang Cheng regarded them as part of his team.
"If you want to work in this team, you must first understand our own set of software. They are named Super Coach!" While Yang Cheng was speaking, a software usage interface appeared on the big screen behind him.
"This set of software is divided into two systems. One is pre-match preparation and the other is game analysis. The former, as the name suggests, is the preparation for a game. It includes data collection of opponents, researching opponents, analyzing the physical condition of opponents and our own players, etc., including all the intelligence of both the enemy and us, as well as some game videos and videos."
"Game analysis. You don't have much chance to get in touch. After upgrading, this set of software can track and quantify the entire game. It can convert the game screen into a two-dimensional screen and conduct data statistics on each player, including running distance, running area, speed, confrontation, passing route, team cooperation, etc.."
"Our coaching team can use this set of software to grasp the opponent's every move anytime and anywhere during and after the game, understand the physical information and game status of each of their players. All of this can make us understand ourselves and our opponents better. Then we can find a way to defeat our opponents!"
Yang Cheng's introduction made everyone present nod involuntarily. In fact, they all knew very well that the core secret of the Caesar Research Center was not only this set of huge and comprehensive software, but also a series of supporting hardware equipment, which are now sold in all sports fields around the world.
However, because the Caesar Research Center is engaged in behind-the-scenes work, it makes huge profits, but it is unknown.
"You are more exposed to pre-match preparations. We will arrange for everyone to give you a set of mobile phone software authorization. You can log in directly with your mobile phone, contact the server directly, enter your information and information anytime, anywhere, and then find time to organize and analyze it uniformly."
"We have a wide range of analysis of the opponent, from the advantages, disadvantages, offense and defense characteristics of the team. These are all large, from the details to the position and distance between the opponent's players and the players, the level of tacit understanding of passing and receiving, including whether the ball can be passed to the teammate's step, as well as the players' stopping details and stopping habits, etc."
"There are also various news summary of players off the court. It seems that Bayern Munich was recently revealed by the media that Breno set fire to his house. I can be sure that Breno will definitely not be in good condition during the next period of time, because he has to feel sorry for his house, and he has to find a place to live!"
Yang Cheng's joke greatly activated the atmosphere on the scene, and everyone smiled knowingly. Breno is indeed a scam!
Regarding the use of software and the responsibilities of these interns, Yang Cheng also introduced their work in detail and made detailed arrangements for them, striving to make each of them more clear about their responsibilities and their role in the team.
Only when the division of labor is clear can the team be run as soon as possible.
"Our goal is the European Cup. My requirement is that after each game, the next opponent's game analysis report will be handed over to me, and will be updated immediately. Our coaching team must grasp the opponent's movements and situation anytime and anywhere. Which player of theirs is injured, how serious is the injury, whether it is serious or not, I must be clear about these."
Joining this team is an honor, an affirmation, but it is also a challenge and pressure, because Yang Cheng has very high requirements for all his colleagues, which is a fact recognized by the whole world.
You should know that after each game of Real Madrid, the maximum number of analysis reports on the next opponent's game is over a thousand pages. After handing them to the coaching staff, they will analyze and sort them out, and finally sort them out into a report about 10 pages, gathering all the information, and handing them to each player in a targeted manner at the tactical meeting.
Meticulous preparations are often a key to ensuring Real Madrid's victory, but for ordinary fans, they may pay more attention to the performance of the stars during the game, and the entire huge team behind them appears unknown.
"I hope that all you who join this team will have a sense of awareness. You will not appear in the newspapers. Everything you do for this team will not be known to the fans, because your work determines that you will not be able to appear in front of everyone. You must even remain silent anytime, anywhere, and not reveal a trace of secrets."
"Many people say that football is a war, yes, it is indeed a war, and you can even be said to be the agents and intelligence personnel who guide the situation and direction of the war. I hope each of you can be mentally prepared enough. This will definitely be hard and not easy."
"But I believe that when you see an intelligence you have collected through great difficulty that can help our national team members defeat their opponents on the court, you will be proud from the bottom of your heart, because you will find that you have your credit in the victory of every game!"
Yang Cheng's words made everyone present feel excited. Most of them are Germans, who love football and the German national team, so they all hope that German football can defeat their opponents, and this will also become their motivation and spiritual pillar for working harder.

“It’s so tiring!”
As soon as he walked back to his office in the German Football Association, Yang Cheng sat on the soft sofa, shook his head and sighed deeply, because he had been busy all day and night in recent times.
"No, I think your speech just now is very inspiring!" Tim Hank teased with a laugh.
Paul Bayer also agreed with him, "You can do pyramid schemes!"
Yang Cheng almost cursed, but he quickly calmed down. He sat up and said, "Tim, ask you a question!"
As soon as his expression came out, everyone knew it was a serious matter, so they didn't joke. They all listened seriously.
"From the end of the league and the beginning of the European Cup, do you think we can last a high-intensity training to help us improve our physical fitness and ensure that the players support it to the end?" Yang Cheng asked with concern.
Usually, after a busy season, the physical condition of the players is at the end of their strength, so many powerful teams often fail to go much further in large-scale national team competitions due to the physical fitness problems of the players. For example, England, although many people think it is an excuse, Yang Cheng feels that it is not completely without physical fitness factors.
"Get on a lot?" Tim Hank frowned when he heard it, "This is probably not easy to deal with, because it is usually mainly focused on restorative training to ensure that the team enters the state directly at the start of the cup. If we go on a lot, the impact will probably be great!"
Take the European Cup as an example. If you play a lot, do not adjust well, and the group stage is tragic, you will not be able to qualify at all. No matter how good your physical fitness is adjusted, you will be eliminated and returned home. What's the point?
Therefore, the normal practice of all teams is to restore training and adjust their physical fitness and condition. Although doing so can maximize the team's condition and physical fitness in the opening stage, physical fitness will often occur in the middle and late stages, especially the physical fitness and condition of some core players, which are often not guaranteed.
This is very obvious in the 2010 World Cup. For example, core stars such as Ronaldo, Kaka, and Messi have performed relatively poorly in the World Cup, or they are not in their best form, and they are not even in a slightly better form.
Although Spain is awesome, it is actually more of an advantage in overall strength. In terms of player status, Spain does not play well from the beginning. It often uses games one by one to slowly find its state, and then ensures physical fitness through their Spanish-style football style.
"What? Do you want to have a lot of training in the team after the season?" Paul Bayer also frowned.
Yang Cheng didn't say anything, smiled, and asked Tim Hank and Chris Schmidt, "If we arrange personnel from now on, collect data from all aspects of the international players, and then conduct high-intensity training after the end of the season, are you sure to adjust the players' status and physical fitness in the shortest time?"
Chris Schmidt and Tim Hank looked at each other and both thought this problem was not easy.
"I'm sure, but I can't guarantee the time!" Chris said in a little embarrassed.
Physical energy is periodic. Although it can be controlled manually through training, it is undoubtedly difficult to find out when the state will appear, and the state will be even more elusive.
Many athletes, such as track and field athletes, have been preparing for the Olympics or other events for a long time, so they can adjust their state and physical fitness during the Olympics through some competitions, but this takes time.
However, it took only about half a month from the end of the league to the opening of the European Cup, and coupled with a series of problems such as team training and injuries, it can be said that Yang Cheng’s requirements are indeed high, and even harsh.
Of course, if successful, the German national team's physical fitness will definitely be better than other national teams, and then turn into the German team's game advantage.
"You start to study it!" Yang Cheng heavily instructed Tim Hank and Chris Schmidt, and then turned to Paul Bayer, "Immediately arrange personnel to track and collect data from all internationals and marginal internationals. You can get it directly from their club through the Football Association, or get it through private relationships."
After hearing this, Paul Bayer looked at Tim Hank and Chris Schmidt helplessly, and laughed bitterly twice.
"Anyway, I'm used to this guy's madness!" The German shook his head helplessly and sighed.
Tim Hank and Chris Schmidt nodded in the same way, and the whole room couldn't help but laugh.
"I am sticking to the beliefs of our Chinese people. Diligence can make up for the shortcomings. Since our skills are not as good as others, we must make up for the shortcomings in this area through hard work. This requires us to have strong physical fitness!"
When he said this, Yang Cheng couldn't help but smile, "Using physical strength to drag down and defeat his opponents has always been the old profession of the German Chariots, and he is also a good move. How can he lose it if he says he loses it?"
This guy's mouth can be said to be alive if he dies, and everyone really has no choice but to let him go.
