Coaching career started as a college team coach

Arranging tactics is a science, and how to let players implement tactics is also a science.

Although Han Yang is a fool, he is indeed obedient and will never go west if he is told to go east, but with his basic understanding ability, if he is simply told to "run flexibly", he may just run around the field without knowing anything.

This is also a common problem of grassroots football in China.

When young people of the same age in some football-developed countries are fighting for their community teams on the courts that can be seen everywhere, young people of the same age in China can only seek football interest classes that are still expensive and not popular to get not very systematic football guidance.

This also leads to the fact that young football players in China do not have continuity in learning.

The fruitful French Clairefontaine Football Base once summarized a set of learning stage divisions for training young athletes. This stage division not only applies to young players who will be active in professional competitions in the future, but can also inspire the development of amateur players.

In their view, players are still in the stage of experiencing physical and mental pleasure before the age of 11, and finding the fun of football is the purpose of playing football. Over-emphasizing whether the players' technical movements are standard at this stage may not only fail to make the players gain anything, but also make them lose interest in football. Some talented players first show their differences from others at this stage.

From 12 to 15 years old, it is the early training stage, which requires not only technical training, but also mental improvement. Players should understand how to view the game, how to correctly deal with victory and failure, and how to deal with difficulties.

The third stage comes at the age of 16, when there is a clear diversion. The selected talented teenagers will receive tactical training in the game and improve their physical conditions. Some more talented players have even entered the professional arena before the age of 19.

But to be fair, most domestic young grassroots football enthusiasts often have not completed the second stage of training at the age of 18, let alone tactical understanding. For Wei Le, the most obvious requirement for this situation is to arrange tactics, training and even wording more carefully.

Before today, Zhang Tie was still worried about the quality of the team's future training. Although he had no objection to Wei Le's appointment, he was not sure whether Wei Le could really perform the duties of a coach. However, all these worries and uneasiness disappeared after Wei Le clearly pointed out the strengths and weaknesses of each person.

Although Wei Le pointed out most of the strengths and weaknesses of his teammates, he deliberately avoided the willpower problems of Liu Zihang and Liu Ziyu. He believed that the situation of these two people was so abnormal that pointing it out in public might be counterproductive.

Wei Le has always been a person who is good at expressing himself, and he is naturally not afraid of speaking in public. But Zhang Tie feels that Wei Le's speaking ability seems to have improved recently.

Before this, Wei Le could always raise the morale of his teammates to the highest point with a few words before the game, which is also the point that Zhang Tie envied and admired the most. When it comes to tactics, Wei Le's ability to express himself seems to have been better developed.

Wei Le feels that if the team wants to win in the next game, it should ensure that he does not make mistakes first. Therefore, technology and cooperation are the focus of the team's training during this period. In Wei Le's view, it is not enough to just tell teammates "what to do". This seemingly simple and direct requirement may allow players to perform well in training.

However, in the game, the scene is ever-changing, and players may not get good results according to the coach's instructions. In this case, what to do is what players need to think about. If players know "why to do it" on the basis of knowing "what to do", they can become the real implementers of the coach's intentions, not just puppets.

Football games are not like the manager mode of PES or FIFA series games, where the coach can control every move of each player.

For example, when it comes to formations, Wei Le deliberately avoided explaining "formations" and emphasized the responsibilities of each player.

The 4231 set displayed on Wei Le's notebook is not always a fixed formation. Wei Le encourages players to think freely and break through the limitations of these rules and regulations.

He requires Han Yang to play his speed advantage more in the defensive stage, slow down the opponent's offensive rhythm along the way, and force the opponent to give up fast breaks. This requires him to retreat more in defense, and even stand on the same parallel line with the full-back Wang Chen. He also encouraged Wang Jing to retreat appropriately and use it as a fulcrum when the midfield cannot make a breakthrough, and give the task of scoring to the winger or even the central midfielder.

Wang Chen, who has not received professional tactical guidance, even drew inferences from his own experience and proposed that he should retreat to the middleThe defense is close together, narrowing the space between the central defenders and giving more space for Han Yang to play.

Wei Le praised his learning from one example. This also made Wang Chen, who is often criticized in football, quite proud. In fact, when the situation mentioned by Wang Chen occurs in defense, the formation displayed is no longer 4231, and even tends to 541.

Wei Le felt that it was not scientific to confine players to the formation. Even Zhang Xin, the central defender who he mentioned, who hoped to take on more defensive responsibilities and cautiously pressed forward, could also look for opportunities to receive teammates' passes near the center circle. This also made Zhang Xin, who had an offensive heart, very satisfied. When he was a little imaginative, Wei Le pulled him back.

"But you still need to be cautious first and be cautious first. You are the last barrier in front of the goalkeeper. If you stay in front and don't come back, the back line will lose its barrier function."

Zhang Xin nodded repeatedly to show his understanding.

Wei Le looked around the players and felt that his explanation was quite effective. He believes that it will take time for players to implement his tactical ideas. He also knows that even if everyone understands it now, they will be at a loss in the next training and games.

He is not in a hurry. If football tactics can be fully understood and implemented with just a few words, then what is the point of training?
