Chapter 34: The lineup is confirmed
When Chen Xiaojian determined the goalkeeper, defender, midfielder, and winger, there were only two positions left to be determined.
One is the striker and the other is the striker.
For the classification of positions in football, if it is simply said, it can be considered that the role of players in other positions on the field is more for the team to concede as few goals as possible in the game.
The players in these two positions determine whether the team can win or not, and it is natural that more goals are needed to win, and in almost all teams, the midfielders and forwards are more responsible for the team's goals.
In Chen Xiaojian's heart, the players in these two positions are the main source of the team's goals, so accordingly, Chen Xiaojian will try his best to reduce the defensive tasks of these two players.
Of course, there is still a need for pressing up front, but there is no need to do more drop-back defense in the game.
The midfielder, as the closest player to the goal, is also the player in the front goal. In the game, it is more about launching attacks and finishing attacks.
The forward midfielder is one of the most demanding positions for players, requiring a certain ability to break through with the ball and be able to tear apart opposing defenses when facing opponents' multi-layered defenses. It also needs to be able to feed the striker, complete the so-called "final pass", and also organize the link between the tandem striker and the central midfield, and be able to advance with the ball and finish the game with a shot at key moments, as well as make a second attack after cutting into the penalty area.
When defending, the forward is the team's first defensive barrier, and sometimes it is necessary to chase back and intercept the opponent to intercept the opponent's rapid counterattack, and at the same time, it would be better if it could complete the quick switch from defense to attack after the ball was successfully broken.
Although the requirements for professional players in the front waist are very high, Chen Xiaojian will definitely not ask for the players of his team in this way.
After all, you can't let an amateur within an amateur do a task that a lot of professional players can't do.
After thinking about it for a while, Chen Xiaojian wrote the names of Li Yanfeng and Wu Xinyang on the back of his front waist.
Li Yanfeng's speed can only be regarded as above average among everyone, not very fast, not as fast as the two wingers Shen Si and Shi Xiaoyu.
The feet are relatively hard and have good long-range shooting ability, but they are inferior to Song Yingjie.
But in Chen Xiaojian's view, as the most important ability of the front waist, Li Yanfeng just has it, that is, Li Yanfeng's passing footwork is the best among all people.
Chen Xiaojian watched Li Yanfeng play well when he passed the ball for the test header, whether it was a cross from the side or a high hanging in the middle.
Of course, as a forward midfielder, the requirements for the player's short passing ability will be higher, but looking at Li Yanfeng's footwork when shooting a penalty, Chen Xiaojian believes that Li Yanfeng's short pass will not be bad.
Maybe there really is such a thing as talent, and I have to admit that sometimes the damn thing is really talented.
Just as Chen Xiaojian saw Lin Hengfeng's performance and decided that Lin Hengfeng was an excellent central defender, Chen Xiaojian also felt that Li Yanfeng would be a good candidate for the midfield.
Compared with Li Yanfeng, Wu Xinyang is undoubtedly more tragic, in fact, Wu Xinyang is also a good candidate for the front waist in Chen Xiaojian's opinion, but compared to Li Yanfeng, Wu Xinyang is a little too thin.
In high school leagues, physical fitness is definitely a very important one. In this regard, Wu Xinyang gave Chen Xiaojian the feeling that he was too thin, as if he was completely deviated by someone who hit him.
Maybe when the game is about 70 minutes into the game, when the opponent's physical strength has dropped, Wu Xinyang will have a better performance.
In this way, Chen Xiaojian identified Li Yanfeng as the starting forward, and Wu Xinyang as a substitute.
After the midfielder is decided, only the last striker has not yet been decided.
The main thing for a striker is to break through the opposition team's defense, try to score goals, and when necessary, he can retreat to get the ball, he can involve the opposing defender, and he can act as the team's offensive bridgehead.
Chen Xiaojian's requirements for strikers are relatively simpler, that is, scoring goals and serving as the fulcrum of the team's attack.
Chen Xiaojian wrote the names of Gong Chang and Li Feilong behind the striker, and then put a checkmark behind Gong Chang's name.
Gong Chang and Li Feilong are the ones with the most goals in the penalty area among all of them, and if Chen Xiaojian is playing as a double striker, both of them can be used as strikers.
But because Chen Xiaojian is a single striker, and there are requirements for the fulcrum role of the striker, Gong Chang, who is stronger and has better heading ability, was selected by Chen Xiaojian as the main starter, and Li Feilong can only play as a substitute.
But the team only has two strikers, so there will definitely be no shortage of opportunities to play.
After Chen Xiaojian determines the striker, the lineup of the entire team will be completed.
Chen Xiaojian took out an A4 piece of paper, and then wrote the four numbers 4-2-3-1 on the paper from top to bottom.
Then make a note on the side, goalkeeper: Ding Yanyi, substitute goalkeeper: Xiong Liang.
Left full-back: Li Bing, right wing-back: Bian Yuanya, left center-back: Lin Hengfeng, right center-back: Li Bing, substitute full-back: Liu Zhongfei, substitute center-back: Chen Zhichao.
Left back: Song Yingjie, right back: Liu Hui.
Left winger: Shen Si, right winger: Shi Xiaoyu, forward Li Yanfeng, substitute forward: Wu Xinyang.
Forward: Gong Chang, substitute striker: Li Feilong.
There are 16 players in the squad, 11 starters and 5 substitutes. Because it is a high school league to participate in, it is impossible to have a multi-front battle like in a professional league, so Chen Xiaojian feels that this kind of staffing is completely enough, even if there will be some emergencies, it can be completely handled.
Unless there is a "goal-killing tragedy" like Chelsea's, it is indeed enough. And in the high school league, that certainly doesn't happen.
Even if the team composed of these sixteen scumbags is temporarily completed, of course, after two months of training in the summer, Chen Xiaojian may still need to make some adjustments to the lineup according to everyone's performance.
However, there will be less room for adjustment, because after Chen Xiaojian determines his position tonight, he will definitely conduct special training for their respective positions in the next two months of training. The time is short and the task is heavy, and it is certainly impossible to do such a thing as a defender training the ability of a striker.
The formation had been determined, but when Chen Xiaojian looked at the list in his hand, he felt as if something was missing.
