Chapter 28 The Depressed Old Professor
"Disgusting guy!"
At night, on the return bus, Steven couldn't help cursing.
Although he was generous and calm in the post-match press conference, Steven was also very concerned about losing.
Of course, as he said before, he will not blame the players for a loss in a game.
In this game, Hoffenheim did not do well in many places, but this just shows that Hoffenheim still has room for improvement.
There is no team that does not make mistakes. When a team shows its peak state, it also means that it is not far from the bottom.
The team in Steven's heart is a team that is always full of vigor and vitality, occasionally makes some small mistakes, but has sufficient competitiveness.
"Carloster was too selfish throughout the game."
Wagner reminded.
In this game, Carlos started again, and he replaced Roquel.
But Carlos did not cooperate with the players, but played too independently.
In other words, selfishness.
"Players are selfish! Especially strikers!"
Steven said lightly.
On the contrary, he understands very well, and he feels that an unselfish striker is not a good striker.
The yardstick used to measure a good forward is goals.
The goal itself is selfish and requires the cooperation and dedication of teammates.
It's just that Steven's tolerance for this kind of selfishness is not unlimited.
It's okay to be selfish, but you must show value.
If he doesn't show value while being selfish, then Steven won't give the other party a chance.
Just like Roquel, this guy is very selfish. He wants Leo to pass everyone and pass the ball to himself when the goal is empty.
But Roquel's selfishness also made Hoffenheim a clear priority for the offensive line, and he scored a lot of goals, which can help the team win, and his teammates trust him.
Of course, to reach this step, one must go step by step.
This is the first time for Carlos, and it will be the second and third time, but the chances will not be too many.
"Let him practice more shooting under physical confrontation. This guy's shooting accuracy drops too much when someone interferes." Steven complained.
Wagner nodded and said: "I have already explained to the shooting coach, and he will lead Carlos to train in the next few days."
Steven nodded, rubbed his eyebrows and said, "The next step is the Champions League!"
Hoffenheim won the first round of the Champions League group, which also allowed them to maintain a certain advantage.
But the second leg wasn't easy either.
This season's Red Factory danced very happily.
Although the Red Factory has been reduced to a team that is ridiculed, no one dares to underestimate it.
At least as long as the old professor is still there, the Red Factory is still a threat.
"How are you going to play?" Wagner asked.
Steven smiled and said, "How else can I kick, as usual."
"As usual?"
Steven continued with a smile: "Hoffenheim has gone through the time period that requires surprises to win the game. Our tactical area is stable and very effective, so why is it unnecessary to arrange special tactics?"
"What should be worrying is the Red Factory and other teams facing Hoffenheim. They need to find ways to break our tactics when facing us, but..."
Steven smiled, and said with a hint of pride in his tone: "This is not an easy task!"
…
On the other side, in the training base of Red Factory.
The 65-year-old professor is in the office, studying Hoffenheim's tactics all night.
The old guy frowned deeply, there were a lot of files on the desktop, and Hoffenheim games were played on the computer.
The whole room was dimly lit, and there were only busy figures in front of the computer screen.
The old professor kept looking at the document in his hand, feeling a burst of emotion in his heart.
The whole world is studying Hoffenheim's tactics, but even now, they haven't been able to figure out why.
The old professor is also one of them, and he also wants to crack the powerful secret of Hoffenheim.
But it has been unsuccessful.
So far, the ability of Hoffenheim's tactics has been too terrifying.
That kind of smooth ground control gave the old professor a headache.
The Red Factory is also a team that plays pass control, but the Red Factory pays attention to the rapid transition of the midfield, sending the ball into the penalty area, and scoring goals through dazzling passes and cuts.
But Hoffenheim is different.
Their midfielder is good at possession of the ball. Generally speaking, as long as Hoffenheim has the ball, it is difficult to grab it.
If you can't control the ball, you can't control the rhythm.
This is also the reason why most teams are not obsessed with rhythm when facing Hoffenheim.
They can't get the ball!
So far, facing Hoffenheim, the best player is Stanford.
Christopher is an arrogant guy, but he does have a knack for always finding the crux of the problem.
But this time, the old professor affirmed that Christopher could not find a tactic against Hoffenheim.
Otherwise, relying on the strength of Stanford's lineup last season, they would not have been defeated at the Arena.
But I have to admit that Christopher is the best.
This has a certain reference value, but it cannot be applied to all.
After all, Red Factory is not Stanford, and the old professor also has to be shameless, so he can't put the bus shamelessly like Christopher.
There are three players that Hoffenheim need to pay attention to.
They are Meget, Roquel and Ranier.
Many people think that Habr will be the core of the midfield, and he needs to be restricted.
The same is true, but you can't go to the opponent's half to limit Habr, he is a midfielder.
On the other hand, Ranier, as a central midfielder, is a key link in the offensive organization and plays a connecting role.
The old professor felt that this guy should be targeted more.
This neglected kid has been hiding under the noses of everyone, making troubles secretly.
On the wing, Roquel and Meget are both tricky.
Especially Roquel, this guy's performance in these two seasons can be called superb.
No team is going to give up on him, and if anyone does, it's an idiot.
But you can't put all your defense on the right wing, or you won't be able to see Meget on the left wing.
Hey~~~~~~~~
The old professor had a long talk.
He was really upset.
No solution!
One is restricted and another is released, endlessly.
The most important thing is that these players have very strong personal abilities. In one-on-one situations, they all have the ability to threaten the penalty area.
The old professor had to admit, compared to the Hoffenheim team that met in the Europa League that year.
The current Hoffenheim team is simply a monster!
At the beginning, he could use various means and tactics to restrict.
But in Hoffenheim now, he really can't find a place where he can target restrictions.
Special targeting tactics are useless.
Can only head to head!
But does Red Factory now have the strength to head-to-head with Hoffenheim?
The old professor wanted to tell himself for sure.
But in fact, he always felt guilty in his heart.
