The Young Lion

Belsaby looked even more anxious before, thinking about how to equalize the score.

The game was only played for 25 minutes.

He couldn't make a substitution, but Belon was terrible.

3313.

This one alone is the most important.

Bielsa bet on Belon and Aimar and gave up Riquelme. Even though Riquelme, who is slower, may not perform well even on the court.

Because the England team is shameless, yes, in the eyes of Bielsa, the England team is shameless.

Abandoning the dignity of the originator of modern football, the game was not played, and the momentum was weak three points first, because they took the initiative to retreat and do the intensive defense that usually only the weak team will put on.

Belon had Bart in the front and Scholes in the back, both of whom were his teammates at Manchester United. They were restricted to do nothing in a narrow area, which is why Argentina can only fight around on the sidelines. In the absence of Belon delivering artillery shells to the front line, Argentina's offensive is not threatening, but Batti can't stand alone. Just let him go to grab the high ball.

When Bielsa squatted down to think of a move, Aldridge had already celebrated with the coaching staff and the players.

At this time, he was still holding his hands behind him, standing on the side of the field with his head upright, immobile.

This match between Bielsa and Aldridge is more anxious from the physical movements of the two coaches on the sidelines, while Aldridge has an old-fashioned taste that does not match his appearance.

Martin Taylor, Andy Gray, and Reinkel have begun to reminisce on the goals just commented, and the number one star Beckham has naturally received a lot of praise. They believe that Beckham scored the first goal in the face of Argentina. , A very crucial goal, representing Beckham's revenge, Beckham climbed up again at the place where he fell.

"Gary, you just said it reminds you of the 74 World Cup finals, what do you mean?"

"I saw Ashley Cole’s running position and his assist for David. This scene was very shocking. I remembered the classic 74-year final. Of course, England is like Germany, but Argentina is not. Like the Netherlands, they are much weaker than the Netherlands."

"why?"

"Because Ashley Cole, he..."

The eloquence is good, and the remarks of the remarked Reinkel can't continue here, because he doesn't know how to describe the role of Ashley Cole in the attack just now.

This is a strange phenomenon.

Unclear, unclear Tao, innumerable threads, like a catfish in the throat.

Argentina took the initiative to slow down the rhythm after restarting the ball. To slow down the ball, it is also a time for Bielsa to fight for the spot. 25 minutes, it is obvious to everyone. Although England shows a pair of headed turtles The posture, but when people show their mouths from the turtle shell, they can really bite people!

As much as Reinkel could not tell the subtleties of the England offense just now, there are many top coaches who think of it here.

Aldridge turned his head and looked at Belsa, who was squatting on the sidelines.

Tactical master?

It doesn't matter if you are a master.

But since you meet here, you should at least come up with some convincing skills.

Offensive offense then offense, lunatic Bielsa.

It seems that other coaches don't know how to attack.

But if you attack and attack and don't score, you are limited by your opponent's intensive defense. What if you're crazy? Not ashamed?

Holding the offensive banner as if to promote passion and romantic football aesthetics.

It's a bit underestimated.

Whether it's passionate or romantic, it's not the coach's words!

This point, Aldridge wanted to understand the day when he coached Millwall at the age of 18, and it was also the experience of his previous life, which was summed up by traveling and studying in this life.

Millwall started to defend against the opposition. Eight years later, in the face of the La Liga duo, if he still fights against the opposition, he will definitely be able to play the opponent without temper. But Aldridge still takes the initiative to attack and is not afraid of losing the ball. Why? Because Millwall already has the capital to crush opponents, lost the ball? What is a lost ball? I can enter more than you!

But now in Argentina, there is no such capital, absolutely no!

To play Nigeria, you have to rely on a positioning ball to break the goal. In addition to long-range sports, there is basically no threat. When you come to England, you still play like this. In the eyes of Aldridge, it is not that Belsa is crazy, but he underestimates the world.

Me, Aldrich Hall, 8 years of glory, how could it be worthy of fame?

In this game, Aldridge's platoon formation seems unchanged, because the formation itself is dead and meaningless, but in the tactical arrangement, it grips the opponent's seven inches.

Restricting Belon, Argentina's offense can only go sideways.

Ortega, Gonzalez, have their own ability to explode England's side defense ability? Especially in England's intensive defense, in addition to Bart, there are Beckham and Lampard taking the initiative to defend the side.

If not, Solin and Zanetti will assist.

After this assist came up, the resulting problem was that Ortega and Gonzalez had flaws in the flexibility of the winger to the forward.

If these two are Millwall's Henry, Larson, or Klose, Argentina's minimum strike power will increase several times.

Why?

Henry, Larson, and Klose, trained by Aldridge, all have strong center pull-edges, wing-inward consciousness, and are able to blend through and switch flexibly in the game, but the Argentine striker, this consciousness and ability has not reached At a very high level, the threat naturally declines severely. Instead, it is crowded on the sidewalk. Even if you run to the middle road, it is only a simple run, and the pass and run coordination is not in place.

After the offensive piled up on the wing, when England switched from defense to offense, it played exclusively on Argentina’s wing defense. The biggest hole in Argentina’s defense was here. Their wing midfielders all assisted. The offensive football should be crushed. Opponent.

As a result, people saw the important role of McManaman, played the fast attack speed, ensured that England quickly pushed the attack to a deep enough zone, torn the Argentine three-line connection, destroyed their overall defense, and the battle became Partial.

McManaman pulled left and right, and then made some involvement in front of the 60-meter cross-section of the Argentine defense line. The second problem of Argentina's defense came out. The 60-meter horizontal defensive area has only 3 defenders. It can be imagined how great the defensive pressure is, Owen’s attractive running position, Scholes’ series and forward insertion, as long as there is another person in England, whether it is Beckham or Lampard, basically can find time. Immediately after the transfer of offense, they exploded their defense.

Romantic football? Goodbye!

If it wasn’t for England that had a bit of luck, they should have scored.

And when Argentina realized that the wing defense was weak, did England lose track?

No, correspondingly, as Argentina strengthens the wing defense, the pressure on the wing defense in England will decrease.

Well, it was the full-back that was released.

This is Aldridge’s second focus on this game. The first is McManaman’s position, which is very different from the previous game of playing Sweden. The second is Ashley Cole and Phil. Neville, Ashley Cole was the first to show off.

If Aldridge can hear the English live commentary and hear Reinkel talk about the 74 World Cup finals, if he does not direct the team, he will be interested in chatting with Reinkel.

That's right, the 74 World Cup finals gave birth to the most mysterious football player on the football field, only to understand the unspeakable characters on the field.

This role exists on the sidelines, and for 30 years thereafter, even in the future, it will become one of the players on the football field to decide the outcome!

Wing players, in public perception, are nothing more than three categories, full-back, full-back, and winger. According to the role, they can be divided into many roles, such as assist-type full-back, classic winger and the like.

The importance of the wing role is often epoch-making, the demise of the classical winger, the withdrawal of the wing of England and the establishment of the wing avant-garde to challenge the world and so on.

The development of football in the contemporary era has basically formed a consensus, that is, "three half-backs". Four guards without a team are immutable and only undertake defensive tasks. For a radical team, both full-backs can assist. Occupy the position of the wing forward and the position of the winger, but the general team does not dare to invest so much. Therefore, when the mobile game is in progress, it is usually three guards, one-sided assists, and it is necessary to return when defending, that is, no matter how it changes , The main body is three and a half, a small half, is to participate in the attack.

For a world-class strong team, the defense must at least ensure the Iron Triangle, the double central defender plus a midfielder, which not only guarantees a certain lateral defense, but also has a sense of hierarchy, like the future Real Madrid puts a seemingly good defender line However, it is not surprising that the midfielders have virtually no impact on opponents at all levels, and poor defense is against the trend of football tactics.

In the case of ensuring the defense of the Iron Triangle, how do the players in the front and midfield line up, how the offensive system works, let countless coaches rack their brains, some are famous, and some are unknown. When they reach the extreme, the role of the full-backs It began to be gradually valued. Since the 58th World Cup, assist-type defenders have been on the highest stage in the world. Their popularity, popularity, and development seem to be no longer secret.

Coming to the 74 World Cup, at that time, the all-attack and defensive Netherlands shocked the world. 5 wins, 1 draw, only 1 goal to advance to the final, without losing a victory over South America's three males, averaging more than 20 shots per game! Playing Sweden, 36 shots, playing Argentina, crazy 40-foot shot! With this crazy offensive investment, they only lost one ball, which is the performance of the offensive and defensive peak.

The final was held in Munich. West Germany faced the Netherlands. No one was afraid of the Netherlands. West Germany was no exception. They were thinking hard about how to beat the Netherlands. At this time, Kramer, a German emperor Beckenbauer The person with the origin and influence of the free man recommended a set of technical and tactical play to the West Germany team, which specifically restrained the Dutch team's full attack and defense. To put it bluntly, it is to seize the opportunity on the basis of finding flaws.

In the game, Bonhof, who seemed to be a full-back, was a take-all-eat and created a chance on the bottom line in a sprint of more than 40 meters. This was the winning goal Mueller scored.

That game made the Dutch team the uncrowned king. They were too crazy to win the championship.

The German team has also brought new tactical ideas to modern football. It seems that the use of wing players has broken a barrier.

A brand-new character was born, but there is no precise definition, because this character is on the side, sometimes like a guard, sometimes like a front, there is no fixed position, no fixed area of ​​activity, in Europe, most people call this role as "change "Feng", the Italians called it "turning winger", and the Argentines called it "blower".

Why is this kind of role unintelligible? Because you can’t describe its exact position to define his name on the court, count the names of the various positions on the court, whether it is a delayed organization, a nine and a half, an assault forward, a column center, a full-back, etc., this There is a big frame or three-dimensional depiction, but this role alone, no.

Why is this character mysterious?

Most of the head coaches can’t describe it clearly. When dealing with the outside world, they formulate some cliché positions. However, the reporters are not willing to write because they will feel like they are fooling people, just like Cruyff will tell reporters in private. He said he played 312211 formation, but would the reporter write this in the newspaper? Readers who actually write it will only laugh at reporters as idiots.

Just like some teams start with 451, but when defending, the last line of defense, you will find that there are 6 people lined up. Is this a 4-guard formation?

This "change" has become an invisible but vital force in the tactical contest of the football circle. After 74 years, there are teams that want to follow suit, such as the Brazil team, but they are at a loss at the cost of 10 years of failure. .

It's too difficult. You can't train such players full-time, because it will become a double-edged sword. If you fail, it will destroy the entire tactical system, and because it can't become the mainstream, there will be no team to focus on creating such players.

England's goal, from start to finish, Ashley Cole assisted, and then gave Beckham an assist in the front waist area.

But, thinking against the past, why did he appear? Why didn't he hold McDonald's sideways to support McManaman? That's the responsibility of his full-back!

If Ashley Cole played like this in the whole game, and has done so throughout his career since then, can he still be a stranger every time? Or become a tumor of a tactical system?

It is precisely too many factors that influence the "change of arms" to become the mainstream, and it will shine only under certain circumstances.

In the World Championships of the past 20 years, regardless of the European Cup and the World Cup, this "change of arms" has become an invisible force in promoting the evolution of football tactics, and even some self-contained 3-guard formations have also originated from this.

In the contemporary era, "changing the front" has always been the pursuit of top coaches. Once it can be used well, it is a miracle. For example, in the last game of Argentina against Nigeria, before Argentina scored, the only goal in the penalty area was from Argentina. Who comes from? Solin, a midfielder who entered the penalty area, came to the striker's zone to form a shot. Unfortunately, only one time, it can be seen that Argentina is not very skilled in using the forward.

In 2006, when Ram scored the first goal of the World Cup opener, he scored the goal from the wing, and then cut through the two of them, and completed a long-range goal with a winger and a winger in the same field. In the World Cup, the magical Grosso, who faced Australia and played one less person, slammed up, took the ball in the winger area, started to work as a striker, and finally lost a man in the penalty area. I stumbled. He was no more than 10 yards away from the goal. Under normal circumstances, it can be said that the player's light flashed, but if you think about it, the World Cup, one less player, the final moment of the game, Italy has to rely on a full-back to rush forward to a forward. Did Dragon's work involve the blood of chicken, or Lippi's mastermind calculated that the essence of transformation was used to the extreme? Looking back, without Lippi's nod, give Grosso ten thousand guts, dare he rush up? And don't pass the striker, do it alone?

In the final analysis, the emergence of "change of front" is a kind of football that has reached a practical bottleneck, but it cannot pursue the highest level of compromise.

Everyone in the Netherlands can play a forward, everyone can be converted into a defender, and they can perform whatever duties they need to stand in the area. It is too free, the creativity is too amazing, it is simply dreams and limits, but it is realistic That is, players are not gods, they must give players a frame, a shackle, in order to make a team of 11 players run smoothly, 10,000 teams to pursue the highest ideal full attack and defense, only nine One thousand nine hundred ninety-nine collapsed, and the one remaining was called the Netherlands. The highest achievement was the World Cup runner-up and received the glory of an uncrowned king.

But in stereotypes, technical and tactical will be nothing new, predictable and too strong, so, with the change, with the free team of the German team that later became famous, with the rise of the modern winger, there is After the emergence of the delayed organization, there are all kinds of creations that can only be based on a certain point, a certain person, and a certain position. This is a compromise between reality and ideal, but each change still has a huge impact on modern football. .

Aldrich’s research, experimentation, and application of change have already begun, but because this change is always not the mainstream, it is not a role that can be created routinely, so it can only be used in the right context of the game, just like the Europeans. As for the change, the emphasis is on change. If it becomes a stereotyped routine, what is the meaning of change? Where is the unexpected?

He used it at Millwall. The earliest key use can be traced back to the first year of the Champions League. In the face of Juventus’ last fight, Schneider’s pressure, gave up the wing and went inside to create opportunities, The goal that created Millwall's defeat to Juventus came from this.

Since then, Zambrotta, Schneider, played in many tough battles, have the shadow of this change. Because Zambrotta has a stronger physical fitness, Zambrotta is more outstanding, and why he can The reason for competing for the world's best full-back is that Aldridge has long since, as long as the main full-back is on the stage, he basically won't set up a full-back and a traditional winger.
