"In this world, there is no absolutely perfect formation, but I have to admit that Manchester United's midfield is indeed a textbook, it is worth our study, and this combination also minimizes the impact of the ups and downs of players on the team. " Mourinho said with admiration.

Since it is non-nuclear, it will not cause the team to collapse because of someone's poor state, unless it is really unfortunate that all four of the midfielders are down together, but that possibility is too rare.

"As we said just now, Jim, in the future training of the youth team should strengthen the echo of running distance. It is very difficult to get the ball back after losing the ball, so we must try our best to ensure that first. Get the most out of every possession!"

After listening to Cassell, he immediately nodded in agreement.

"I watched the videotapes of the first two seasons, and I also have a certain understanding of the players of the team. I know that many players are very capable, but the professional league is different from the amateur league, so in the new season, we will be based on Defense."

Saying this, Mourinho went to the tactical blackboard again.

"Last season, the team's defensive tactics were more about moving the defensive line forward, which is very good for the free-spirited amateur league, and achieved ideal results, but the professional league is different, all teams are based on performance, In addition, the tactical discipline is stronger, the defense line moving forward has stricter requirements on the players in the back line, and it is also more risky, especially when the midfielder is out of position, the opponent may directly face our back line, which is very bad. I do not like this!"

If the defense line moves forward, the formation basically does not recover when defending, which leads to the fact that the back line cannot be recovered, otherwise the distance from the center and frontcourt is too large, and the opponent will be directly knocked out. In this case , It is very dangerous to be counterattacked. At the same time, once the midfielder fails to grab his position, the requirements for the backline players, especially the central defender, are even higher.

"I advocate an orderly recovery of formations when defending. The first thing that a midfielder should consider is to stand in his own position, protect the defensive line, counterattack on the spot in the midfield and frontcourt, slow down the opponent's rhythm, and block them from entering their own goal 32 meters, because Someone once calculated that 97% of the goals are scored in this area, as long as we don't let them easily enter this area, then our defense is successful!"

"And for this, we have to go back to the previous requirement. The player's off-ball movement plays a significant role in offense and is equally important in defense. How to cut off the opponent's ball carrier and teammates through effective and reasonable movement This is a direction we will work on next!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately understood the characteristics of Mourinho's coaching, that is, stability, but it does not mean conservative, because his stability is based on the whole, taking all possibilities into account. Inside, and then give targeted strategies one by one, resolve them, and finally ensure that the team can get what they want and achieve results.

"There is another point. I want to ask everyone, what kind of cooperation is the strongest?"

Everyone was silent for a while. Even Cassell, who had been in Manchester United's youth academy for so long, felt that this question seemed a bit baffling, and he didn't know how to answer it.

After a while, Mourinho himself gave the answer.

"Triangle, whether it is on offense or defense, the triangle is the strongest. As you know, the pyramids in Egypt are also triangles, so they can withstand thousands of years of wind and sand. The team's cooperation is also the same, with three players as one The cooperation of small units is also the focus of our training for the youth academy and the first team in the future.”

"When attacking, three people cooperate in a small area and keep advancing layer by layer. When defending, three people help each other to defend each other, control the area, and then from point to surface, and finally evolve into a group and even the entire team. Revolving around the run, so we're going to have quite a bit of flexibility both offensively and defensively,

And it's flexible! "

This is obviously something brought from Barcelona, ​​because Xiao Yu had heard in his previous life that Barcelona's youth training and first-team training seem to emphasize the cooperation of three groups, which is the same as Mourinho's idea. Emphasizes the control of space in the triangle relationship in offense and defense.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu suddenly thought, Barcelona in the previous life was a typical representative of controlling the ball, Mourinho was a typical representative of controlling space, and Manchester United was an outstanding representative of the running system without the ball, but these three systems in this life But they all poured into the new Manchester United. What kind of chemical effect will this bring to the new Manchester United tactical system?

Someone once said that Mourinho only learned a layer of skin in Barcelona, ​​but did not learn the essence of Barcelona, ​​that is, Barcelona's set of stepped moves, which made the team he coached can only control the space. , but now join the Manchester United set of off-ball running system that even Cruyff is ashamed of, what will happen?

Xiao Yu had to admit that he was really looking forward to it!

But Xiao Yu obviously didn't know that Mourinho was even more excited than him!

The reason why he came to the new Manchester United is to practice his own tactical ideas, but he never expected that there would be a Cassell here, and in the past two years, Cassell has helped the new Manchester United to build a team The prototype of running without the ball, from the youth team to the first team, has a certain foundation.

The most rare thing is that Cassell is very familiar with Manchester United's off-ball running system. He is the right-hand man of Harrick Harrison, and from him, he can learn what he lacks. Let Mourinho feel that this is the best chance to make his coaching philosophy perfect.

Every coach should have his own set of coaching concepts and systems, and Mourinho is currently looking for such a set of his own system.

At this time, he suddenly felt that joining the new Manchester United was definitely his wisest choice!

"In addition to the training and tactical issues, I also have some thoughts on the team's personnel configuration. First of all, we currently only have three strikers with their own characteristics. I am satisfied with that, but if we can introduce another technically excellent The striker, that can enrich our team's offensive coordination routine."

"Don't worry, Jose, I have already started to introduce such a player. I will wait for the following information to be sent to your office. He is an Argentine, his name is Rodrigo Palacio, a very good one. player!"

Mourinho nodded. He had seen the video of the new Manchester United, and he probably knew the ability level of the team's players, especially when he knew that these players were brought in by Xiao Yu himself, he still had a very good eye for Xiao Yu. trust.

"Also we need two wing players, preferably the fast and skilled type."

Krzynovic moved to Birmingham, Darren Lyons retired as a coach, Rich Willens moved to Droysden on a free transfer, and there is only one Hleb left in the team. Although Olic can also play as a left winger, there is indeed a shortage of people on the wing.

"Don't worry, I already have a suitable candidate in this regard. I will discuss it with you after the meeting. In addition, I will also let the scouts start searching to see if there is a suitable candidate, and then bring in another!"

The three wing players, plus the cameo Olici and Palacio, are enough to handle the team's next season.

"After Karl retired and many players left, we currently have Juninho Jr., De Rossi, Paulson and Essien in the middle of the midfield. Essien is young and his strength is good, but not very strong. Stable, De Rossi is also a young player, it is difficult to play the main role, I need to introduce another player with certain strength."

Xiao Yu also agrees with this. He has even begun to search in his head to find out who among the players that the new Manchester United can introduce currently meet Mourinho's requirements.

"Finally, I need an extra central defender and a right back. The right back should be faster, have a certain ability to assist, and be able to recover defense at the same time!"

Everyone understands that Mourinho's tactics emphasize running off the ball, so for a tall but slow player like Stansson, it may be difficult for him to occupy the position of the main full-back in the team he coaches. , because he will put more emphasis on forward assists from full-backs.

"I have a candidate for right back!" Boas laughed, and after attracting everyone's attention, he continued: "Bosingwa from Boavista in the Portuguese Serie A, he was loaned out last season. Playing for Freyamond, a third-tier team in Portugal, but I didn't get many opportunities to play, I am still very young at 18 years old, fast, offensive and defensive, I think it is good!"

Mourinho, through Lorenzo's relationship, knew that Boyas was very familiar with the Portuguese league, and at the same time had a certain understanding of his vision, so he was also very interested in the person he recommended, and immediately looked at Xiao Yu.

As soon as Xiao Yu heard about Bosingwa, he immediately remembered that Mourinho took him to Porto when he coached Porto, and then took him to Chelsea. He is a very powerful right-back.

"The question is, is he willing to come to the League Three?" Xiao Yu asked Boas with a smile.

The latter smiled, "I have some connection with him. I can try to persuade him, but I must promise to give him a chance to play."

Mourinho thought about it and agreed: "As long as he has the ability, I will give him the main force!"

Boas understood what Mourinho meant and nodded in agreement.

"I'm worried that Boavista will not easily release people at low prices, especially for foreign teams, they are worried about debts, so the transfer fee should not be less than 200,000 euros!"

"Go ahead and negotiate, let's make a cash deal!" Xiao Yu said with a smile. As for Bosingwa, he knew very well the reliability of the deal.

This sentence also excited Mourinho and others who had just joined the new Manchester United, because they knew that Xiao Yu was really willing to spend money as he said before. It is almost rare to get good results without spending money. Even Arsene Wenger has spent a lot of money to introduce players this year.
