In the morning, it was a recovery training, after the training, everyone had dinner together at noon, and during the afternoon training, when the group was fighting, Gao Xiaodong was still the same as before, diligently stealing and intercepting in the back position, but after stealing the ball, he no longer handed the ball to Lopez, fullbacks and Zina and others, but often carried the ball forward to assist. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At the beginning, Oliveira was a little strange, but this was just training, I felt that Gao Xiaodong might just want to have fun and taste people's addiction, it's nothing, young people, play a little more seriously, in the game, Gao Xiaodong has never done this. So I didn't say anything.

Later, Oliveira found that Gao Xiaodong's breakthrough success rate was actually very high, with occasional mistakes, and his strong body and good defensive awareness could also allow him to strangle the danger in the cradle.

Oliveira was a little surprised, and said in his heart, this kid's ball skills have improved, and he can break through people, it seems that this period of practice has not been in vain.

In the next few days of training, Gao Xiaodong was not as calm as he used to be every time, often dribbling the ball to the frontcourt, and often not coming back in the frontcourt, receiving passes from teammates, breaking through with the ball, and shooting.

This is the work of the front waist, you do it with a back waist, even if the front waist does not do a good job, this should not be, on the football field, the division of labor is very clear, unless that kind of star, there is a certain amount of freedom, everyone else is doing their own job, and must not be overstepped.

Ahead of the second round of the Portuguese Cup in midweek, Oliveira finally lost his breath and kept Gao Xiaodong after training.

When he came to Oliveira's office, Gao Xiaodong was still pretending to be confused there, and said, "Coach, you have something to do with me?"

Oliveira said: "You did well in training at the end. ”

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "Is it? ”

Oliveira said: "Still like that? Gao Xiaodong, I think you are too modest, you are better than Maradona now, Maradona has never done defensive back, you are now shoulder-to-shoulder." ”

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "Do I have it? Did I make any mistakes in training?"

Gao Xiaodong's rhetorical question stunned Oliveira, who was about to beat Gao Xiaodong, because he thought about it carefully, Gao Xiaodong really didn't make any big mistakes in training, and the defensive work was done very well, and after the assist stepped forward, it could also play a good role, in a sense, Gao Xiaodong didn't do his job seriously, but he did two jobs at the same time.

But what needs to be said is still to be said, Oliveira said: "Do you know what your responsibilities are as a midfielder?"

Gao Xiaodong said: "I know that I have to intercept the defense, assist in the ball, and insert assists appropriately." ”

Oliveira said: "Isn't your assists a little too much these days, doing it in training, there is no harm, but in the game you did this, the opponent counterattacked, who will make up for your position, every time you have to make up for your teammates, then who will make up for your teammate's original position?"

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said: "Coach, you have also seen that my back is a little tired of playing, and I can't stay in the back, can you change my position? I want to play in the front midfield." ”

"You want to hit the midfield?"

Oliveira opened his mouth wide in surprise, if Gao Xiaodong said to play as a striker, Oliveira promised not to be surprised, after all, Gao Xiaodong had played a striker and played well, but this forward waist, Gao Xiaodong had never played, what did he want to do?

Gao Xiaodong replied again very firmly, and said, "Yes, I want to hit the front waist." ”

Oliveira was shocked at first, because when Gao Xiaodong played in the back, it was very difficult to play the ball, and it was usually handed over to Xena and others nearby, and it was definitely not good to play the front waist, but from the perspective of the past few days of training, Gao Xiaodong's passing and ball control breakthroughs have improved a lot, think about it carefully, since Gao Xiaodong can play from the forward to the back waist, then it is more normal to play from the forward to the front waist.

However, the progress of Gao Xiaodong's skills is only shown on the training ground, and it is difficult to say how it will be during the competition, after all, competition and training are two different things.

Oliveira said slowly: "Your skills are very comprehensive, I have also seen the training in the past two days, you have made a lot of progress, and there is nothing wrong with playing the front midfield, but you have never played the front midfield, and I am not very relieved to play this position rashly." ”

Gao Xiaodong heard Oliveira say that he was improving quickly, and when he put his mind at ease, he was worried about Oliveira and said: Hey, why are you improving so fast?" Now Oliveira said half and half left, what is the intention, Gao Xiaodong guessed about it, he smiled: "Coach, I can continue to play in the back, but you have to give me the power to insert forward and break through and freedom in the front court." ”

If Lexus hadn't accumulated 24 points, if it weren't for Gao Xiaodong's comprehensive skills, and he had a certain performance in training, the most important thing is that when he was recruited in the summer, Dior, who was close to Gao Xiaodong's technical characteristics, had been introduced, in addition to facing the three giants Lexus needed to use three backs to defend, in the face of other opponents in the Portuguese Super League, Lexos was a little conservative in the three backs.

In the position of the front midfield, Lopes played well, and his excellent performance is one of the reasons why Resus can achieve this result, but Lopes' shortcomings are also obvious, that is, the body, Lopez's body is thin, similar to Xavi, the midfield core of La Liga giants Barcelona.

This kind of body protection is a bit troublesome, the impact is not enough, and the long-range shot is not very threatening, these are all things that Lopes can't change if he wants to, this is innate, and if Gao Xiaodong and Xavi partner in this position, all the above problems will be gone.

Oliveira looked at Gao Xiaodong and said that he could continue to play in the back, and when he completed his task, he made a cameo appearance in the front midfield, of course, there was no problem, Oliveira said: "Since you are so eager to play in the front midfield, I will not stop it, we have a Portuguese Cup match with Durense in midweek, you can try to try the position of the front midfield, if you can perform, I agree with you to play this position." ”

Gao Xiaodong said: "Okay, coach, you just wait to see my performance." ”

Oliveira nodded, and suddenly said, "Gao Xiaodong, what do you think of the Portuguese Cup?"

Gao Xiaodong was stunned for a moment, the coach asked himself what he was doing, after thinking about it, he immediately understood what Oliveira meant, now Lexus has accumulated 24 points, only one step away from relegation, at this time if you still take relegation as a goal, it will be a bit self-deceptive, at this time there must be a more suitable goal, but it seems that if you want to win the league championship, or enter the Europa League, it is not very realistic, in addition, Gao Xiaodong does not like to play the Europa League, that can't win the championship, it has no effect on his promotion, it is better to play the Portuguese Cup, in case of winning the championship, it is 5 points。

So Gao Xiaodong summed it up and said: "Coach, I think we must have no problem with relegation, at this time, we should consider the cup." For example, set a small goal: to win the Portuguese Cup. ”

Oliveira smiled: "How can the Portuguese Cup be so easy to win the championship, but there must be a goal, this game in midweek, you play well, and when we get the relegation points, we will plan well." ”

Although Oliveira said to plan, Gao Xiaodong can guess from his voice that compared to the illusory Europa League seat, head coach Oliveira is actually very eager to win a Portuguese Cup title. (To be continued.) )
