Episode【562】: A State that Satisfies Zhong Cheng

When Van Gaal's team was studying Leeds United, the Leeds United team was also studying Bayern Munich.

The situation on Zhong Cheng's side may not be better than that on Van Gaal's side!

The Leeds United team is also very nervous and miserable, and they often stay up late!

Now Leeds United's coaching staff really doesn't get much rest. They spend all day together studying Bayern Munich game videos and information in detail.

Especially Leeds United data analyst Green Nethercott!

This guy started collecting Bayern Munich game video and text data half a month ago, and then he often worked overtime to organize and produce this data, segmenting and sorting out a lot of things, and selecting some of the most representative ones. Come out with sexual things and synthesize some video and text materials.

At the same time, he also came up with some of his own experiences, perceptions, etc.

Of course, these things were not accomplished by him alone, but also by the team and technical support behind him.

Yes, don’t underestimate a team’s coaching staff. There are more staff behind this than everyone imagined, and the coaching staff is not just those who appear on the surface.

Many people work quietly behind the scenes without being known.

Of course, the most important thing was done by Green Nethercott himself, because only he knew what he and Zhong Cheng wanted.

Yes, after working with Zhong Cheng for so long, Green Nethercott knows very well what Zhong Cheng wants? So the things he chose were almost all what Zhong Cheng wanted.

The tacit understanding between the coaching staff of Leeds United is now very, very good.

Now, Zhong Cheng and the members of the coaching staff are studying the Bayern Munich game videos and some information, and they are watching it very seriously.

Watching the Bayern Munich game video, Zhong Cheng nodded and nodded slightly.

To be honest, the advantages and disadvantages of this Bayern Munich team are quite obvious. The advantage is that they have many offensive routines and are very sharp on the wing. The shortcoming is naturally the defense. The strength of the two central defenders is naturally no problem, but they also have big disadvantages.

Obviously, Van Buyten and Demichelis are very good at frontal defense, interception and aerial defense, but their speed and turning are a very big problem. Therefore, the two full-backs must always protect their backs.

This is a relatively obvious shortcoming of Bayern Munich.

However, it is also very difficult for Leeds United to take advantage of this shortcoming.

Because you Zhong Cheng knows it, but doesn’t Van Gaal know it?

Van Gaal knows their Bayern Munich team better than Zhong Cheng, and he knows the strengths and weaknesses of Bayern Munich team better. Therefore, he would not easily give Zhong Cheng the opportunity to attack their Bayern Munich weaknesses.

Van Gaal must be well prepared for this game!

Therefore, this game is more difficult than Leeds United people imagined.

Sometimes a very obvious shortcoming is no longer a shortcoming, but becomes a trap.

Therefore, now Zhong Cheng and the coaches of Leeds United are thinking about how to take advantage of this shortcoming of Bayern Munich to formulate new tactics and see how they should play in this game?

The Bayern Munich team is not weak, and it is quite strong!

Leeds United cannot underestimate their opponents. Their opponents are really powerful, very powerful.

One can imagine how difficult this game is.

Albertini suddenly said: "Boss, this striker combination of Bayern Munich is a bit interesting, isn't it?"

Zhong Cheng nodded slightly, this is indeed very interesting.

On the front line, Bayern Munich forward Luca Toni was injured and missed this game. Moreover, Luca Toni will also leave Bayern Munich after the end of this season. As for where he will go, it is still unclear.

Luca Toni has not had many opportunities to play for Bayern Munich this season, but his scoring efficiency is still very good. He has scored ten goals this season.

If he hadn't been seriously injured in the later period, it's hard to say that Bayern Munich would have renewed Luca Toni's contract.

Luca Toni was the ace center forward of Leeds United!

It is a pity that Luca Toni cannot play in this game, and this is also the end of Luca Toni's Bayern Munich career.

Another forward, Mario Gomez, is the center Bayern Munich has introduced with a large sum of money this season to replace Luca Toni. However, it is obvious that Mario Gomez's performance this season did not meet everyone's expectations, which disappointed Bayern Munich fans very much.

It is said that Mario Gomez will not start in this game, but will sit on the bench.

It is said that Mario Gomez was slightly injured today.

Therefore, Bayern Munich's striker combination for this game should be Olic and young Thomas Muller!

Yes, Olic is the Croatian forward Olic who once played for Leeds United.

To be honest, Zhong Cheng likes the forward Olic very much. This is a forward that suits his tactics very well. But then Leeds United needed a better forward, and Olic couldn't keep up with the rhythm. Moreover, he also wanted to get more game opportunities and become the main force of a team, so he chose to leave.

If Olic himself is unwilling to leave, Zhong Cheng will keep him and at least give him a substitute position. Olic is a very qualified substitute forward, but it is a pity that Olic has higher goals.

Of course, Zhong Cheng also chose to bless Origi back then.

Zhong Cheng, another forward of Bayern Munich, is also very optimistic. Even when he came to introduce Toni Kroos, Zhong Cheng wanted to take Thomas Muller away.

It's a pity that Bayern Munich values ​​​​Thomas Muller very much, so Zhong Cheng did not succeed.

Thomas Muller performed very well this season, scoring 13 goals in the Bundesliga and two goals in the UEFA Champions League.

Thomas Muller is still very young and his future is limitless.

This should be Bayern Munich's starting striker combination in a few days, because Bayern Munich has no one available on the striker!

Therefore, everyone in Leeds United believes that Leeds United's victory in this game should be certain.

Bayern Munich has consumed too much in previous games, and they can no longer produce their strongest lineup in this game. Leeds United's lineup is relatively complete, and Leeds United should be able to win this game.

Leeds United are suddenly full of confidence in this game.

Zhong Cheng said: "Yes, Bayern Munich is not their strongest lineup. Their team has encountered some problems. But at this time, we cannot take it lightly. They are still very strong. And you You also know that Van Gaal has a lot of clever ideas, so you should pay attention!"

Zhong Cheng was not so much reminding the members of the coaching staff as he was reminding himself.

The more this happens, the more Leeds United must stabilize and maintain its original mentality.

Yes, Leeds United cannot underestimate Bayern Munich because of this, thinking that Bayern Munich does not pose much of a threat. On the contrary, at this time, we should pay more attention to our opponents and deal with them as if they are the strongest team.

Zhong Cheng did not want Leeds United to lose this game because of his mistakes.

Zhong Cheng solemnly said to the members of the Leeds United coaching staff, hoping that they can adjust the players' state and mentality, and must not underestimate Bayern Munich.

After the meeting, it was already four o'clock in the morning.

During the day, Zhong Cheng and the others just took a plane from Leeds United to Spain. After such a long flight, they didn't even take a break. Instead, they worked until four o'clock in the morning before they dispersed.

They have almost no rest at this time? I can only go back to Mi and wait for a while, and then lead the Leeds United players to the first training session after arriving in Madrid the next day.

Yes, it is such a blessing and such a hard work.

Being a professional football coach is such a blessing, and there is also tremendous pressure. This is really not something ordinary people can do, and it’s very hard.

After Zhong Cheng returned, he just stared for a while and slept for a little more than three hours. Then he got up because he was going to lead the Leeds United players to training.

Of course, there is someone who gets up earlier than Zhong Cheng, and that is Nai Smith.

He is the main worker leading the training of Leeds United players, so he will get up very early tomorrow. Now that Nai Smith has finished breakfast, he is waiting for the Leeds United players to get in the car and prepare to go to training.

Even though the meeting last night lasted so long, everyone still didn't finish the matter.

Tonight, the Leeds United coaching staff will also hold a summary meeting, which is to summarize today's training and discuss and solve some problems discovered during today's training. Then I will continue the things I didn't finish yesterday, and I will be busy until late tonight.

The only night before the game is when everyone should be able to sleep comfortably.

After all, they were going to face the most important game of the season the next day, so they had to keep their spirits up and take this game seriously.

In fact, the Leeds United players may not have had a good rest, and some of their players have not overcome the jet lag. But Leeds United really has to train today, so Leeds United players still have to work.

During this period of time, everyone is very busy and working hard.

During today's training, the Leeds United players were obviously not in a good state. It was obvious that they had not yet adjusted.

However, Zhong Cheng was not in a hurry, after all, they had just arrived in Madrid.

Moreover, this final will still come in a few days, and Leeds United still has time to adjust. However, Zhong Cheng is quite satisfied with the mental state of the Leeds United players. Although they are very tired and have not adjusted well, their attitude during training is very correct. This is something Zhong Cheng is very satisfied with.

Zhong Cheng believes that as long as the Leeds United people continue like this, the victory in this game will definitely belong to their Leeds United team.

Zhong Cheng is full of confidence in this final!

Now, Zhong Cheng and Leeds United are trying their best to adjust, waiting for this game to come!
