Does Haaland have any objections? Not at all.

Haaland actually has no requirements for what responsibilities he will take on the field. For him, having a ball to play is more important than anything else. After all, he is very young.

At the age of 17, Haaland has already stepped onto the stage of the Premier League, and he has surpassed his peers by many steps. At this stage, he was assigned to take on tactical responsibilities, part of which was to accumulate experience and learn.

In this game, he was used as a pressing striker, or a front midfielder who does dirty work, which was also a novel experience for him. He can practice what he learned in training, how to use his body reasonably.

However, it is unknown whether Moussa Dembele is willing to be used as a "sparring partner". But it seems that Dembele should not be very happy.

After losing a goal in the first half, Tottenham launched a fierce attack on the Wolves' goal under the command of head coach Pochettino. In response, the Wolves defended solidly and focused on controlling the ball.

However, the focus of the competition between the two sides was still in the midfield area, and neither of them formed a particularly obvious offensive threat. At this time, the physical advantage of the Wolves' midfielders became more obvious.

Dell also played very uncomfortable in this game, because he found that the passing routes he usually used were intercepted in advance, either there was someone next to the receiver, or when he was about to pass the ball, he found someone standing on the ball path.

It was obviously 11 vs. 11, but playing against the Wolves felt like playing with fewer players.

"The Wolves' defense is very interesting." Zhang Lu, who was sitting next to Zhan Jun, also discovered this feature and smiled.

"Oh, what do you mean?" Zhan Jun immediately replied.

Halfway through the first half of the game, the game on the field was not very smooth. Although Craig Pawson intended to allow some minor fouls in this game to promote the smooth progress of the game, the normal ball possession conversion and fouls were very dense, making the game very boring.

At this time, Zhang Lu's timely analysis just played the role of this connection.

"We can see that Tottenham's defense is that many people rush forward, starting from a high position, and may directly press the opponent's central defender. But Wolves are different."

"We rarely see them pressing forward in a particularly obvious formation, especially against the opponent's central defender, they basically don't press forward." Zhang Lu said, "They are very disciplined and basically don't blindly rush forward."

"And their central defense is mainly focused on occupying positions. We can observe that Tottenham players, especially those attacking players in the frontcourt, basically have no particularly obvious breakthrough space."

"In most cases, it is difficult for them to pass the ball to Kane because there are people all around Kane." Zhang Lu marveled, "Such an arrangement makes full use of the field space, making it difficult for Tottenham to pass the ball forward and find space that can be used."

"Although the players are not very close to each other, the effect created is that there are people everywhere. No wonder Tottenham does not attack forward, but is intercepted in the midfield in most cases." Zhan Jun suddenly realized.

Zhang Lu smiled and continued, "When we watch the game, we may find that Wolves do not seem to have a particularly clear three-line distinction like other teams. The offensive line, midfield line, and defensive line do not seem to be clear, but in fact the levels are very clear."

"The first row is center forward Jovic, the second row is Haaland and two wingers, the third row is the midfield line composed of Rodri and Dendoncker, and the fourth row is the back line."

"Wei Le is really good." Zhan Jun concluded. He was not stingy in praising Wei Le. After all, he is an outstanding coach in their own country. How can he not praise him?

The game entered the end of the first half in an overall dull entanglement.

"The score was 1-0, and the first half ended like this. Wolves opened the game with a clever set-piece attack shortly after the game started. But after that, the game was honestly lackluster and a bit hypnotic."

"But if this score is maintained until the end, it will be most beneficial to Wolves, because then Wolves can consolidate their position in fifth place and seize the opportunity to overtake the fourth place in front."

"In the first half of the game, Tottenham's overall offense was restricted. Whether it was Son Heung-min, Harry Kane or Ali, they had few opportunities to touch the ball. And Eriksen's indecisiveness in passing the ball was targeted very hard here. If no adjustments are made in the second half, the situation will not improve."

"In the final analysis, it was Wolves' solid defense that played a big role, helping them resist Tottenham's challenge in the first half. But Tottenham, who played at home, will definitely notLet's stop here. Let's see how the game will develop after the commercial break."

After saying this, the director sitting opposite him gave Zhan Jun a thumbs up, and Zhan Jun turned off the microphone with confidence. After making sure that his and Zhang Lu's microphones were turned off, he sat up and stretched.

"Teacher Zhang, this spotlight always makes me dizzy. "Zhan Jun rubbed his sore eyes, and Zhang Lu smiled in understanding, he felt the same way.

Since they were in an offline studio and had to comment on the game in person, they were dressed in formal suits and explained in the built studio.

In front of them was a large screen, which was broadcasting the game live, and there were cameras on both sides of the screen.

The ceiling was full of various spotlights.

But you have to know that spotlights will get hot.

Sitting here for nearly an hour, the two not-so-young commentators were sweating profusely, and they hurriedly fled to the lounge to find some water to drink and take a break to adjust their state.

"Teacher Zhang, I feel that our country's football is getting better and better now."

"Why do you say that?"

"Look, Wei Le is now leading Wolves to the Champions League; in Germany, Yang Qi is gradually finding opportunities to play in the Bundesliga. It feels like all this happened too suddenly."

"Yes. "Zhang Lu nodded, "It feels like they suddenly popped out like aliens from outer space."

"Domestic football has introduced many stars now. What do you think about this?" Zhan Jun asked.

"Well, I..." Zhang Lu shook his head, "Actually, I don't quite agree with you."

"Oh?"

"Our football has not developed. If we only rely on individual heroes like Yang Qi and Wei Le, we can't do a good job in football. Domestic football now seems to be a group of nouveau riche entertainment."

"This is also an opportunity. If we can use these abundant funds to build a healthy league system and a healthy club operation method during this period, then everything will indeed be better."

"But now, I..." Zhang Lu paused, the old man sighed, and then continued, "I only see a group of crazy people reveling. "

Zhan Jun was silent. What Zhang Lu said was right. At this time, gold-dollar football has become a trend in China. The salary level of players is growing at a frightening rate. One after another, famous players and coaches in Europe are introduced to China.

The league is also much more interesting.

But isn't this a carnival of madmen?

If the capital leaves in the future, can Chinese football continue its current momentum? I guess there will be a huge earthquake at that time. Zhang Lu is right. Now is an opportunity and the last window.

If we can take advantage of now, while everything is right, to establish a stable and reliable football development model in China, it is not impossible for Chinese football to usher in spring.

But is this possible?

Zhan Jun thinks that the possibility is not great.

But as a Chinese fan, he always has a glimmer of hope in his heart.
