The Young Lion

The fans in the Millennium Stadium were enthusiastic, and the fans of the Lions were not worried about the team. The score was that they were leading. The fans of Blackburn were not discouraged. Before the game ended, there were still thoughts. In case, a miracle was created. What?

Neutral Welsh fans are enjoying the game, but today Millwall was slightly disappointed that he did not enter the main attack group.

The quality of Millwall’s offense has declined, Blackburn has always let the ball fly in the sky, Welsh fans have fun for themselves, many fans have cameras on the sidelines of the shooting scene, and now Audridge hugs 17-year-old Ronaldo , Especially to interest them.

What are they talking about?

"Blackburn played like this in the second half. Compared to their first half tactics, the probability of scoring a goal should be improved. Do you know why?"

Aldrich asked Ronald calmly.

Ronaldo shook his head. In fact, he didn't think there was much change. Blackburn only changed from a ground pass attack to a long pass.

"You see, they gave up the midfielder in the second half, leaving 3 people in the frontcourt, excluding the goalkeeper in the backcourt, four backs plus three backs, and 7 defense. The comparison of offense and defense is obvious, we are 5VS7 offense, they are 3VS5 Offensive. If they still hit the ground pass, then the efficiency will be reduced in the link passing the midfield, and in turn, the long pass will be used to hit the offense to the offensive end zone. If we don’t pay attention, we May suffer."

After Aldridge finished, Ronaldo said with a curse: "It's not luck."

Aldrich shook his head, not correcting Ronaldo's superficial statement.

Long pass rushing does look too simple and rude, but Sonez can make such adjustments after halftime, which shows that there is some reasonable thinking.

And Blackburn's posture is in control, Sonnes' experience must have played a very important role.

5 years ago, Millwall 6 years ago, after leading, he can play a defensive counterattack, but today, Millwall, even if he is leading, also has to invest in the offense, it can not be withdrawn too obviously, at least in the offensive and defensive balance that grade, otherwise, This is too utilitarian. The utilitarian is popular among the masses, and it doesn't seem so extraordinary.

Just like Millwall's two-ball lead, the defensive player in the backcourt does not attack, taking midfielder Alonso as the watershed. When attacking, he must advance through the center line, plus the front waist and the trident, this is a 5-player attack In the face of Blackburn's seven-man defensive line, these five men are difficult to play a very threatening offense in the absence of offensive space, but it is not impossible.

The reason why Aldridge does not correct Ronaldo's statement is because there is a certain reason. Blackburn's long pass rushing looks like a lot of luck.

In Aldrich's parlance, it is a mixed goal.

This "mixing" can be understood as an unexpected goal.

For example, in the absence of a shooting angle, forcing a long-range shot, hitting the defensive player and turning to an assisted teammate scoring, this kind of goal is a mix, because the teammates themselves are not seeking cooperation, come again A hundred times, a thousand times, there may not be such a goal.

Another example is the defensive player's clearance and giving the opponent a chance to break the goal. You can't summarize this as the expected or the desired effect of the team's established tactics.

"The point is not how they used it, but that they did increase the probability of equalizing the score. I ask you, do you know the relationship between Millwall's number of offenses and goal rate?"

Aldrich's question asked Cristiano Ronaldo, and he asked: "Is it related? A valid attack can score, but an invalid attack cannot score."

"No, you only see the surface. It is true that when the offense is played, there are goals, and if you fail to achieve success, you will return without success, but I tell you that Millwall has an average of 71 offenses per game, threatening offenses. It’s 39 times, the average offense’s scoring rate is about 4.5%, that is to say, we can get one goal on average for 22 offenses, and Blackburn’s current tactics, maybe the offense efficiency is about 2%, That is, they can score a goal by playing 50 such attacks. Do you understand what it means?"

Ronaldo is a clever kid, he immediately said: "We want to limit their number of attacks."

Aldrich nodded. In fact, the data he said does not represent the whole of football, and it is difficult to use as a benchmark. However, such statistics can be used as a reference standard to at least explain why Millwall is so popular. The average number of offenses is the highest in the Premier League, which represents their offensive strength and desire. The average number of threats per game is the highest, their offense quality, the highest offensive efficiency, and the most offensive conversion into goals. In layman's terms, it is pleasing to the scene. The football elements most fans want to see, they have the most.

"We have two ways to deal with this situation. The first is to strengthen the defense and reduce Blackburn's offensive efficiency, from 2% to 1%, or even lower. That is to say, they play like this and play a hundred times. You can’t score goals. Then you have to shrink the formation and keep the backcourt defensive area in your own hands, making it more difficult for them to grab the drop point. In the second kind, we strengthen the offense, improve our offensive efficiency, and understand my Does that mean?"

Aldridge whispered.

Ronaldo is not in a hurry to play now. He feels that this is a valuable lesson that Aldridge has taught him, which will allow him to improve his reading ability quickly.

Old people often talk about the reading ability of the game, which is very general, including the overall situation, and a keen sense of the game.

After changing other players, Ronaldo believes that Aldridge will not say so much to those players. The unspeakable thing is to play the piano with cattle.

But Ronaldo has strong self-confidence, and he also understands that Aldridge gave him the captain's armband, cultivated him patiently, and now carefully guides, in fact, this is to treat him with the standard of training team leaders, to be a leader on the football field , Not only by temperament, spirit, goals, you must have the ability to lead the team, command the team, which includes a strong ability to read the game, know when the team is in danger, know when the team should do Making changes and coping with different situations stems from rational thinking.

In the past, Aldridge had never thought of training Ronaldo in this way, but when it was time to really guide him and cultivate him, he would inevitably have higher expectations.

If it is simply to train a striker, he need not be.

But every time I think that Ronaldo will communicate with his teammates' defenders, or even quarrel, as a spectator, you will have an idea: This kid is responsible for scoring goals, directing the team to defend, is it related to you?

Now as the head coach, Aldridge knows that it is a sense of responsibility and a desire to rule the game. Not only is it a goal, it is not so simple to score, such a player is very valuable, so in order to avoid future he has this But with the intention to blindly command and lose his temper, Aldridge would rather spend more time to guide him personally.

Ronaldo smiled and said, "Boss, change me up and step up the offensive!"

Aldrich asked: "Do you know the difference between you and Ramall?"

"I am better than him."

"No, you are not better than him now, you are players with different characteristics."

"Why am I weaker than him?"

Ronaldo was not convinced, and said with a lip.

Speed, ball skills, strength confrontation, etc., Ronaldo thinks that Lamor can do it, and he can do it himself. Lamor has at least some of the ability to be equal to him, and his advantages are more than Lamore.

Aldrich shook his head and said in a deep voice: "In my eyes, good players are divided into three stages. The first stage is practical, which means you can use your advantages to help the team. The second stage is control. This Need a certain experience foundation, like Ronaldinho and Pirlo, there are a lot of players who are not worse than them, but they can control the game like they do, make the game rhythm and the overall situation change, Rarely seen. The third stage, the strongest, integrates the first two, both practical and controllable, and can completely rule the game, basically no one can maintain this level throughout his career, but occasionally there will be Playing in such a level of extraordinary performance, such as Henry, Ronaldinho, Nedved, etc., they have played well overall in a season, but the extraordinary performance of high-light performance is also a slap. Sessions. Ramor, he is a good player, at the top level of the first stage in my eyes, and occasionally can play the level of the second stage."

Ronaldo was silent.

Indeed, watching Lamor play football, concise and practical, is to maximize the use of skills to help the team, today can contribute two assists, has been considered to be better than usual level of play, that is, Oddridge can occasionally play The level of the second stage.

Cristiano Ronaldo suddenly thought of Aldridge's roar to him. He now understands that in Aldrich's eyes, he has not yet fully combined the skill with practicality, and only when he completely shakes off the flashy style, he can be achieved. The level of the first stage.

Speaking of which, Aldridge paused for a moment, and then said in earnest: "Cristiano, you have been in Millwall for almost 5 years. In the past few years, you have shown all the potential to become a superstar, so you too The best among your companions, but for you, your path is just beginning. I hope you will be on the right path and, ultimately, realize your dream."

Ronaldo nodded fiercely and said, "Boss, I know, I will remember every sentence you said."

"Okay, I will tell you now that you will replace Ramall after playing, but you have different characteristics from him. You have to play out your characteristics, speed, threat to the goal, and dribbling breakthrough. Now you can’t One person completes such a task, so you have to be smarter, you have to form contact with Kaka, tacit understanding, your line of travel is like this."

Aldrich stretched out his left hand and simply matched four fingers to represent Blackburn's four guards. His right index finger drew a trajectory on the left palm to explain Ronaldo's key impact area after playing.

Ronaldo asked after asking, "Boss, how do you control the game?"

Aldridge smiled slightly. The boy was very ambitious and wanted to learn to run without learning to walk.

“You’re inexperienced, it’s difficult for me to explain to you, but if you want to do this and make the opponent feel uncomfortable, then, remember, don’t just look ahead, pay attention to Alonso and Zambrotta behind you s position."

Ronaldo nodded his head firmly in his eyes, and Millwall made a substitution two minutes later.

Cristiano Ronaldo replaced Lamor who performed well today. After playing, Cristiano Ronaldo directly found Kaka and exchanged a few sentences with him. Kaka nodded frequently, knowing that this is the tactical requirement of the head coach.

Aldridge couldn't help but smile on the sidelines. He could watch the green Kaka and Ronaldo playing on the court. Although they didn't become top stars, it just made people look at a different kind of pleasure.
