Chapter 743 Unsolvable Problem
Perhaps, no one will know how much Yang Huan's words touched Klopp.
He's not a great professional player.
On the contrary, the most glorious resume in his career is playing 325 Bundesliga games for Mainz, which is the highest record in Mainz's history, even now.
The most profound influence on Klopp was the head coach of Mainz at the time, Wolfgang Frank, who is still coaching the second division, even in Germany, he is not well-known.
But Wolfgang Frank's influence on Klopp was very profound. Even many Mainz players at that time have now become professional coaches. A very important reason is that Wolfgang Frank is very respected. Saki.
At that time, a very important training program for Mainz was to watch the games and training videos of Sacchi and his team.
The scene that Klopp was particularly impressed with was that Sacchi asked the players to practice running without the ball on a training ground full of poles, which in the eyes of many people is simply boring and very boring.
But this is just the surface. If you continue to watch, keep watching, and watch it dozens of times, one hundred times, five hundred times, you will slowly figure out some of the mysteries, and you will understand Saki A lot of football theories.
It is these videos that have laid the foundation for Klopp's coaching philosophy today.
It was at that time that Klopp realized the beauty of tactics.
Everything is possible on the football field, even if the opponent is stronger than you, but you can use effective tactics to limit the opponent's strength to the same level as yours, and then defeat them in one fell swoop!
Another considerable influence of Wolfgang Frank on Klopp is learning.
He believes that every head coach, even his defeated players, has something to learn from.
But learning is not imitation, but to improve yourself and find a way that suits you better!
It can be said that although Wolfgang Frank does not have a prominent reputation in German football, and even his coaching resume is not glamorous, he has had an extremely profound impact on Klopp.
But, unfortunately, he passed away last year!
But his various influences in the past gave Klopp an impulse.
That is,
He is eager to go to Serie A, where Sacchi has created a brilliant league, to experience Italian football for himself.
He firmly believes that he can get more nutrients from it, and then enrich and improve his coaching level.
But, before that, he still had a knot in his heart.
So, when he raised his head again and looked at Yang Huan, he hesitated for a moment, but still asked.
"Mr. Yang Huan, it may be presumptuous to have a question, but I still hope you can answer it!"
Klopp's tone was full of respect, without the slightest provocation.
What Yang Huan said just now completely convinced Klopp that the outside rumors are not wrong at all. Yang Huan is not the kind of layman who only spends money and knows nothing about football.
On the contrary, he knows football very well and how to run a team very well.
"Please tell me!" Yang Huan smiled without hesitation.
"Have you understood the current Dortmund?"
After Yang Huan nodded, indicating that he understood, Klopp continued to ask.
"Then I would like to ask, what do you think is the solution to Dortmund's current predicament?"
Yang Huan frowned immediately after hearing this question, because this question was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
Dortmund's current problem is simple and simple, but it can be complicated and complicated.
To put it simply, Dortmund has problems both offensively and defensively.
In the past few years, Klopp's so-called heavy metal tactics, which use high-pressure pressing to win frontcourt possession and counterattack opportunities, have very high requirements on the physical fitness of the players, and the loss is also quite huge.
Needless to say, injuries or something, what is even more terrifying is the psychological slack.
No one can maintain this kind of high pressure for a long time, so sooner or later this tactic will go wrong.
The transfer of Gotze and Royce is just a lead, and the real problems have been buried in the past few years.
For Dortmund, there are two options.
One is to keep Klopp and reorganize the team.
But the problem is that now there are problems with offense and defense at the same time, which is quite troublesome.
Because Klopp's tactical integrity is very strong, the defense starts from the front line, and the offense starts from the back line, so the question is, which link is wrong? Or, is everything wrong?
To reorganize, there must be a direction, right?
Is it because the offense in the frontcourt is weak and the cohesion is greatly reduced, making it more difficult for the midfielder to handle the ball, and it is easier for the opponent to steal the ball and counterattack, resulting in a weak defense?
Or is the poor defense unable to provide strong support to the midfield, which in turn affects the operation of the midfield, causing the frontcourt to become very unsmooth?
I'm afraid this has become a chicken-and-egg problem.
And to put it another way, so what if Klopp is kept?
If he continues to use this high-pressing and pressing tactic, the essence of the team will not change in any way.
Does it mean that in another two or three years, the encounter of this season will happen again?
When the time comes to start reorganization again?
In the same way, if Klopp changes his tactics, let alone whether he can play well, even if he can play well, what about the current group of players in the team?
At that time, layoffs and signings will still be inevitable, and there will still be a lot of trouble.
Therefore, Dortmund's second choice is much more natural.
That is to keep the existing group of players and send Klopp away!
Although it is a bit cruel to do so, this is professional football!
"Do you want to hear the truth? Or lie?" Yang Huan asked, almost staring into Klopp's eyes.
Without any hesitation, Klopp blurted out, "Truth!"
"Then I can tell you, if it were me, in such a dilemma, there is no doubt that the cost of firing the head coach is the lowest, so I will choose this way!"
As soon as Yang Huan said this, the expressions of almost everyone in the audience changed.
Klopp became a little frustrated, his agent was a little annoyed, and Kesh Harris, Marco Blanco and Osirio looked at Master Huan in surprise, not understanding why To put it so directly.
Only Long Wu was still sitting aside, with his head buried, playing his mobile game.
Yang Huan had a panoramic view of everyone's expressions and knew it well.
He is inspecting Klopp, so why aren't the Germans inspecting him?
Everyone is an adult, and the head coach is just a job. There is no such thing as a nobler person.
If you want to hire a famous handsome man, you must at least make them think of you, right?
"Of course!" Yang Huan changed the subject, "If it were me, I would never let my team fall into this predicament, because I never thought that the decision made by the dilemma Gao Ming, it's just a question of how much to lose, and I've always tried my best to avoid it!"
After a pause, Yang Huan smiled slightly, "It may be a bit boastful to say it, but I told Simeone after acquiring Atletico Madrid a year ago that Atletico Madrid must transform!"
These words immediately made Klopp's eyes shine!
Speaking of the past, Atletico Madrid's tactics in the early days of Simeone's coaching were very similar to Dortmund's.
But in the past two years, Atletico Madrid has successively introduced many young rookies and powerful stars, such as midfielder Isco, Illarramendi, Clasi and other players who have gradually taken on important responsibilities in the team, gradually replacing Garcia. Bi, Mario Suarez and other midfielders.
Otamendi on the back line also stabilized his main force, but like Miranda, he gradually lost his position.
The same was true up front, with Mandzukic gradually being replaced by players like Diego Costa and Tevez.
And Simeone has also made subtle arrangements and adjustments in specific tactics, which makes Atletico Madrid's players adopt high-pressing and pressing tactics, but whether it is defensive positions, overall movement or passing support, etc. Obviously better, and often even played exquisite tactical coordination.
If it is said that Klopp always thought it was Simeone's credit before, then now, he understands.
It turns out that behind the rise of Atletico Madrid, there is Yang Huan's foresight!
"We Chinese have a saying that is too rigid and easy to break, which means that the best and most ideal state is a combination of rigidity and softness, trying to achieve a delicate balance between toughness and elasticity. art!"
Yang Huan's last words made Klopp's heart full of embarrassment.
At least, Dortmund's management does not have Yang Huan's vision and foresight.
They are now more concerned about financial issues!
Many people outside, without knowing it, think how powerful Dortmund's management is.
But as an insider, Klopp knows better than anyone else that Dortmund's management is more fucked than anyone else.
Why did Gotze leave? Why did Royce leave? Why is Lewandowski leaving?
Because there is no hope in Dortmund!
When the team reached the Champions League final, the management promised to give a salary increase, but what happened?
No plan has been given for a long time!
Last season, Lewandowski wanted to renew his contract. The management always refused to meet Lewandowski's salary requirements on the grounds of the team's financial difficulties.
In Klopp's view, Lewandowski's request is not too much!
Does the team have no money?
In the season that reached the Champions League final, Dortmund's revenue exceeded 300 million euros, and its net profit exceeded 50 million. How could it be possible to have no money?
And now the team does not have any big debts, and now it is negotiating with Puma to sell part of its shares to Puma, which will at least raise more than 100 million yuan. How could it be possible to have no money?
If there is really no money, then why did Watzke and other club management give themselves bonuses of more than 1.5 million euros? Among them, Watzke even exceeded two million euros, why?
In the final analysis, as a listed company, Dortmund's management only represents the interests of shareholders. Instead of investing in the team, they are constantly withdrawing funds that should have been used to strengthen the team.
As for where those funds went, who knows?
At this moment, in Klopp's eyes, compared with Yang Huan, the management of Dortmund is really...
I am afraid that only the fans who have been kept in the dark will feel how wise they are!
As everyone knows, they are the vampires lying on the team!
Thinking of this, Klopp closed his eyes, thinking about some issues very carefully and seriously.
Yang Huan also waited patiently, he knew that this was the minimum demeanor.
Regardless of whether Klopp agrees or not, he must have this demeanor.
And he wasn't in a hurry anyway.
He has booked a flight south to Munich this afternoon.
Because tonight, at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Southampton will play away to Bayern Munich.
This is also the first leg of the Champions League semi-final!
Atlético de Madrid have already successfully defeated Dortmund in an away game and entered the Champions League final with one foot. Yang Huan naturally also hopes that Southampton can create another miracle, defeat Bayern Munich and enter the Champions League final.
In this way, the two teams under his command have completed their meeting in the Champions League final, no matter who wins or loses, for him, there is no difference, but it is just a matter of left hand and right hand.
That is, when Yang Huan was smiling full of longing, Klopp opened his eyes.
It seems that he has the answer!
