30. Lippi's surprise
When Zhang Sheng led the team back to Jiangcheng, the head of the Guangzhou Evergrande intelligence team, who is also Lippi's assistant coach, Pezzotti, was reporting to Lippi on the situation of the opponents in the FA Cup. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Intelligence warfare is the most important part of today's professional football. Lippi has said more than once that there are no secrets in professional football and that "all teams know each other". Of course, I believe that no one in the Chinese Super League dares to say it except for him, and no club's intelligence team can compare to Guangzhou Evergrande. Lippi has revealed that he has all the footage of the AFC Champions League final opponents this season.
Guangzhou Evergrande's intelligence team was divided into two parts, one internal and one external, which had already taken shape in the era of Lee Jang-so. For some of the full-time data collection and statistics of each game of the team, using the mainstream and expensive technical analysis software in today's world football, the coach understands the performance and status of the players to provide the most intuitive data. The external part is like a trapeze artist, collecting opponent intelligence for the team throughout Asia.
In the Evergrande team, Lippi's right-hand man, Pezzotti, is almost the busiest trapeze. As the head of the foreign intelligence team, Pezzotti is a mysterious man, and he rarely appears at the Evergrande training base.
His team spends a lot of time and energy studying their opponents before each match, collecting as much information as possible about their opponents, and submitting them to Lippi as soon as possible. In order to be able to assist Pezzotti in carrying out his work better, Evergrande Club has specially equipped him with a full-time translator.
As an experienced intelligence expert, Pezzotti will be unusually low-key whenever he appears on the court of Evergrande's opponents, and will not reveal his identity at will.
In fact, before Lippi took over, Pezzotti had already been on the scene to watch more than a dozen games of Evergrande, so on the first day Lippi took over Evergrande, almost all the main players had no wrong Chinese names. It can be said that Evergrande's emphasis on opponents and intelligence work is definitely the leading among the Chinese clubs.
Even though Zhang Sheng now knows the importance of intelligence, he suffers from the lack of a high-level assistant coach to help him collect and organize intelligence, and at the same time, there is no good candidate for video analysts, so he can only rely on the simulated confrontation provided by the system to probe the opponent's information. However, simulated confrontation cannot show the mental outlook of a team and the response to unexpected situations. It's just a simple competition of the strength data of the players on both sides.
The information provided by Pezzotti made Lippi a little unconvinced: "You say that our next opponent, a second division team, can play the style of Barcelona against the teams of the Chinese Super League?"
Pezzotti nodded affirmatively and said: "Yes, I have checked the resume of the coach of this team, he is only 33 years old this year, and he and Li Tie, the current physical assistant coach of our team, used to be teammates. When he was young, he studied in Brazil and participated in training like Li Tie. Later, he graduated from a professional sports university in China, and after graduation, he went to study abroad at the School of Physical Education of the University of Leipzig in Germany, and obtained an A-level coaching certificate in Germany. After that, he returned to China and formed the team. ā
Lippi eased the doubts in his heart a little this time: "It turns out that he has studied in Brazil and Germany, and at his age, it is not easy to pass the German A-level coaching certificate." ā
Pezzotti agrees with Lippi: "The team he is currently in charge of still has a winning record in the second division, and they have basically won by a large margin, and they have already eliminated another team in the second division before they eliminated Jianye. As you know, there is basically no video material in the domestic second division, and the first few rounds of the FA Cup are not broadcast. All I have is the information on their match with Jianye yesterday. ā
"Is there anything about them that deserves our attention?" asked Lippi.
Pezzotti shook the thin information in his hand and said with a wry smile: "Because of the lack of intelligence information, we can't give a very specific answer now, but from the existing information, we can see a few points." ā
Lippi also frowned: "Then you talk about it first." ā
Pezzotti also knows that there is not a lot of data collection, which makes Lippi a little unhappy, but the collection of information is incomplete, which is completely because of the backwardness of China's domestic football foundation, and this pot Pezzotti should not be carried, and he can't afford it.
In the end, Pezzotti still said what he was judging: "The integrity of their team is very good, the passing and receiving coordination is definitely the top level in China, and the players are generally good in skills." There are several players who also need our attention, first of all, the No. 9 in the midfield, the information shows that it is called Qin Minghao, this player is very outstanding, the overall situation is super good, and the physical fitness and technology are also first-class in China, and then there is the center back No. 3, Li Yun, the defensive command ability is very prominent, according to my observation, the defensive formation in the game is commanded by him, and he is the connection point and ball point between the back line and the midfield. The body and technique are very good. I have also recorded some characteristics of other players in the data, so we can take a look at them and discuss them later. However, their No. 9 was injured in this game, and it seems that the injury is not light, and I don't know if he will be able to play against us at that time. ā
After listening to Pezzotti's words, Lippi's brows furrowed even tighter: "Are there so many good players in China? How do the No. 9 and No. 3 you just said compare to Conca and Feng Xiaoting in our team?"
Pezzotti said: "This requires long-term observation by the scouts, at least from the perspective of their age, their No. 9 is less than 19 years old, No. 3 is less than 20 years old, and the future should be very good." ā
Lippi also smiled: "This question should indeed be asked to the scouts, well, do they have any official matches before they play against us?"
Pezzotti nodded: "On June 30th, they still have a second division game to play, and I will go over and continue to observe them then." ā
Lippi relaxed his spirit, leaned back in his chair, and said: "Since there is still a chance for us to observe, I hope we can observe more carefully, and I will also let them collect more information about this opponent through the club, after all, in China, we all talk about relationships, and the relationship between Evergrande is still good." ā
While Lippi was communicating with his coaching staff, Zhang Sheng was struggling with the second transfer period of the second division division. According to the regulations of the Chinese Football Association, the second division of the 2012 league between June 25 and July 21, 2012 will be open for the second transfer and supplementary registration, this time the number of transfer and supplementary registration is 3, and it is also stipulated that if a player is transferred to the national team competition, 2 can be added again. These late players can play on July 22. Similarly, there are no more than 5 people over the age of 25 and no more than 5 under the age of 17.
Zhang Sheng checked the schedule of the next game. On June 30, the players who made up the game against Kunming Ryzen couldn't catch up, and the most regrettable thing was the FA Cup match with Guangzhou Evergrande on July 18, and the players who made up the report couldn't catch up. Zhang Sheng is not worried about the second-class team at all, but for Guangzhou Evergrande, Zhang Sheng is very anxious. Because after winning the game with Jianye, Zhang Sheng was able to summon a good player, after all, it was a victory across two levels. The players given by the system are certainly not bad.
Now in the team, in the organization of the midfield, Qin Minghao is the absolute core, but except for Qin Minghao, most of the rest of the players belong to the system players, and compared with Qin Minghao in terms of ability, the gap is still not small. Qin Minghao's injury this time sounded the alarm for Zhang Sheng. Although Qin Minghao's injury this time was not too serious - after returning to Jiangcheng, after careful examination by the team medical team, it was confirmed that it was completely a skin injury, and it would be cured in a week or two. But this luck does not mean that it can be next time, after all, Qin Minghao, as the core of the midfield, will definitely be violated the most, even if this young man is very smart and can avoid most malicious fouls, he can't guarantee that other opponents will cause him harm in the future. Therefore, finding another core second to Qin Minghao in the midfield is the top priority now.
This time, Zhang Sheng was ready to summon a player to assist Qin Minghao's attack, and at the same time retreat Qin Minghao's position a little. Thinking of this, Zhang Sheng called up the system.
This time, the system girl politely congratulated: "Ouch, yes, I was able to beat the Chinese Super League team." ā
Zhang Sheng also said dogged: "It's all your credit, thank you for the systematic cultivation." ā
"Forget it, I won't brag to you, let's say, what are you looking for me this time?"
"Summons, of course. Shouldn't the reward be better if you beat the Chinese Super League team?" Zhang Sheng asked expectantly.
The system girl still complained a few words first: "Everyone else is on the bench and the players of the reserve team, are you great to win?" But for the sake of not disgrace me, I will give you a senior coach growth charm, and then a senior player growth charm and a senior tactical growth charm. As for the players, you can summon players who are one level higher than the current summon level. How's that, that's interesting, right? Say, what kind of players do you want? ā
Seeing that although the system girl complained in her mouth, the reward she issued was so rich, Zhang Sheng couldn't help but think: "Sure enough, it's a girl with a straight mouth." Of course, Zhang Sheng didn't dare to say such words, otherwise what he was waiting for would definitely be a slap in the face, and even the reward might be in vain.
Judging from the intermediate coach growth charm he once obtained, Jiang Peng has indeed grown very fast under this buff. Many times, in the team's tactical training, Jiang Peng can guide independently, if he waits for his two-month intermediate buff to end, plus the advanced buff, he should be able to grow faster. And Ding Huaiyi also used the intermediate player growth charm that was issued after the last victory over Chongqing Lifan, and when his mid-level buff for a month is used up, plus this high-level buff, it is really like a tiger with wings. As for the advanced tactical growth charm, you can keep it to prepare for future tactical improvements.
