Five Hundred and Fifty-Eight Manchester City Dictator

In the huge conference room, the players sat upright and listened carefully to the analysis of the coaches on the stage.

From Carlo to Lucas, from Buenaventura and Pintos to Borrell, the coaching staff took the stage one by one and commented on the players' past performance in the first stage according to their areas of responsibility. analyze.

The coaching staff headed by Gao Shen has an obvious characteristic, that is, they are very professional.

Their analysis is really combined with video, data and other aspects to explain and analyze, and they always dig deep, analyze the cause and effect of the problem, and let the players know the problem and let them know why. And how to change, this is also a way of progress.

In the past, Gao Shen was the first to speak, but today he is the last.

After the rest of the coaching staff had already said almost everything, Gao Shen walked up to it.

"Everyone said it very well just now. Here, I will add a few more points."

Gao Shen looked at the players under the stage with a deep face, his face was not good-looking, he needed to pass some pressure on the players appropriately.

This is also the consistent strategy of Gao Shen's management locker room.

In front of outsiders, Gao Shen is the umbrella of the locker room, responsible for shielding the players from the wind and rain, so that they can devote themselves to training and games without distractions, but within the team, they can be scolded when they need to be criticized, and they can be criticized when they need to be criticized. Direct penalty into the second team, the most serious directly gave up.

It also gave him a high status in the locker room.

Even if Manchester City is a grassroots team, but after a month of being together, everyone already knows the profound temperament and style.

When chatting, he is very kind and can always arouse your desire to communicate in just a few words, but when it comes to emphasizing discipline, he is stricter than anyone else, and no one can violate the rules he sets.

The biggest players in the team, such as Robinho, Rakitic, David Luiz and Robben, are basically obedient to him, and others naturally dare not overstep.

In today's Manchester City, even captain Richard Dunn has been sold by him, how can other people resist?

Kompany, Zabaleta and others were all introduced to the team in 2008, while the local youth academies such as Mika Richards have too few cards, so how can they dare to resist the profound will.

This also makes the Manchester City dressing room a well-deserved one.

At this moment, Gao Shen was standing on the stage, his eyes swept across the audience, everyone was very attentive and serious, for fear that he would be named and criticized by the head coach if he was not careful.

"First point, concept."

"Through the four warm-up games in the first stage, I think the most serious problem we have exposed is that many of our players, and I can even say that most of the players, their most basic concepts have not yet changed."

The difference between Manchester City and Naples is that the players that Gao Shen introduced in Naples are basically blank sheets. They are all very young and very malleable. However, in Manchester City, although the players are still young, they have already played football for two or three years. , and some have even been four or five years old, which is equivalent to being shaped by others.

They all have their own playing habits and styles, and it is difficult for Gao Shen to try to change these.

"As I have repeatedly emphasized before, our oppression is not to grab the ball, not to grab the ball, not to grab the ball, but from the process of the four games, we can still see that many people did not change this concept. Come here, still chasing the ball, it makes our actions very uncoordinated."

Whether it is in Real Madrid, Naples, or Manchester City today, Gao Shen admires high-position oppression, but does not pay attention to grabbing the ball, but aims to oppress.

Speaking of which, Gao Shen put up a video of the game, in which Manchester City counterattacked on the spot after losing the ball, but the counterattack was unsuccessful, and the players chased the ball to grab it, causing their own defense line to be a bit chaotic, and was hit by the opponent once. threatening attack.

"I know that in the teams you used to be in, the defense all wanted to grab the ball. Of course, we also wanted to, but this is not our purpose. The main thing for our oppression is to delay and guide."

"We have repeatedly emphasized that don't be afraid of the opponents attacking, let them attack, it will be more powerful if the fists are retracted and punched out, we want them to attack, so there is no need to be so afraid, our purpose is to control the scene and let the game Both the opponent and the opponent follow the route we have planned for them."

"When you are only thinking about grabbing the ball, our entire formation is in disarray. As soon as the opponent passes the ball, we can't do anything about it."

There was silence downstairs.

Whether there is such a problem, the players themselves know it, and the coaching staff also has the data.

Problems in concepts and habits are really not something that can be changed overnight.

What Gao Shen showed was actually a problem in the first warm-up match, but it has since improved a lot.

However, for this issue, every game will still be exposed, and Gao Shen feels that it is necessary to bring it up again.

"Second question, midfield."

Gao Shen pointed out the name of Harvey Martinez, "Your position is still very problematic, especially when you come back, you always don't retreat deep enough, but it's not just a problem of you alone, the center in front of you The field often doesn't get back into position in time to protect."

Having said that, Gao Shen once again concealed two videos, one of success and one of failure, both of which were switched from offense to defense by Manchester City, especially the rapid placement of midfielders.

According to Gao Shen's vision, after losing the ball in the frontcourt, it is a good thing to organize counter-robbing and pressing on the spot, and it is a good thing to be able to grab the ball, but the most important thing is to withstand the opponent's ball-holding players, forcing them to pass back and settling down for the backcourt Buy precious time.

If you can't stand it, then try to guide them to the side lanes as much as possible and let them pass to the side lanes.

First, the wing is narrow and suitable for pressing and pressing. Second, Manchester City's full-backs actively move forward to participate in the offense. When switching from offense to defense, the full-back's position is forward, and the defensive power on the wing is sufficient.

What if the opponent plays behind the wing?

That's the importance of the number four.

One of the two central defenders pulls out to the side where the opponent is playing, playing a role similar to that of a full-back, filling the gap behind the full-back, and at this time, the No. 4 will return to the central defender position.

After the No. 4 position returns, the two central midfielders in front must also quickly take positions to protect the defense.

Such a defensive mechanism, which has been proven in Naples, is absolutely feasible, and the flexibility is very good.

You know, Napoli's defense has been tested in key games such as the Champions League.

The key point of the whole operation is the number four.

Why did Gao Shen choose Harvey Martinez?

Because he is not only an excellent midfielder in passing and defense, but also because he has strong strength and a height of 1.9 meters.

No matter when it is, the position of the midfielder is crucial.

Gao Shen believes that Harvey Martinez has not adapted well enough in this position and needs to be further polished.

Next, the coaching staff will also design special training programs to help the players.

"The third question, communication."

"I don't know how you guys feel anyway, but the way you guys make me feel on the pitch is just a mess."

"I said, in the locker room, on the pitch, in the training ground, only English is allowed, we need to unify the language, the way we communicate, but frankly, I think you guys have done a terrible job at this! "

When Gao Shen said this, his tone was unprecedentedly serious.

This shouldn't have been a problem in the first place.

For a month, if you want to force players to speak a variety of English fluently, it is definitely difficult for a strong man, but at the very least, some terms that are often used on the football field, players communicate with each other in games and training. Language, these are not difficult, right?

But the result?

A lot of players haven't fully grasped it yet.

"Here, I officially announce that I will launch a ten-day English research and strengthening activity. All your players whose English is not up to standard, I will ask the English teacher to assign you daily tasks, starting from tomorrow, every morning training class Before, I had to randomly check your recitation, and everyone had to pass the test."

"I said here that all players who fail the random check, no matter who they are, will report to the second team for me. The task will be doubled. Before reaching the standard, they will not be allowed to participate in the training and competition of the first team."

"Remember, no matter who it is, it's a one-vote veto!"

The players off the stage were all silent, especially players who did not speak English like Giroud, David Silva, Suarez, etc., obviously they felt chills in their hearts.

Looking at European football, have you ever seen such an outrageous head coach?

Just a brutal dictator!

Not only to play football, but also to memorize English words, vocabulary and sentences?

Back then, when we were studying, English teachers were not so strict, okay?

If we can read, who will play football?

There is really no way for Gao Shen, if there are other ways, he will never use such a rude method.

This group of scumbags is really a headache, you know?

It's been a month, and even the communication on the court has become a problem. How can this cooperate?

In fact, many of the problems exposed in the warm-up match are not the players' own problems, but the problems of cooperation, and language communication is one of the key points.

Especially when the tacit understanding is not strong, shouting to each other is more effective than anything else.

"In addition, we also welcome players to actively express their opinions and suggestions for communication issues in games and training. For example, you can design some slang and secret codes that you can understand immediately after speaking to each other."

"Anyway, I don't care what you guys say, as long as you communicate smoothly on the court and cooperate well, then I can accept it, and the coaching staff will also reward players who participate in the design and are recognized by their teammates, including but not limited to reductions or exemptions. training program."

If the players were not particularly excited when they heard the front, then when they heard the last sentence, the players were all excited.

Can I waive the training program?

This is great!

Especially the training of Pintus, it is simply terrible, if you can avoid it.

Isn't it just to design some slang and secret codes?

What's so hard about this?
