"This match is definitely the most high-profile one of the quarter-finals." He Wei's voice sounded on the TV, "The Champions League champion and runner-up last season are the Champions League finals that were staged in advance. ”

"Aston Villa's defensive line is full of injuries, what kind of lineup will be deployed today and what tactics will be adopted to deal with Barcelona's crazy attack, I believe this will be the most interesting for many people." "We've talked about it privately and think it's a very dangerous game with Aston Villa's defence. ”

Players from both sides lined up to enter the field, shook hands with each other, exchanged team flags, and took a group photo.

The camera gives Messi and Bael close-ups.

These two stars are the top names of their respective teams, and the confrontation between them is also a highlight of this match.

However, at this moment, the reporters on the scene are focusing on the two head coaches.

The cameras and lenses of major media reporters firmly locked on these two people.

Fang Jue and Pep Guardiola shake hands.

Aston Villa's young, handsome manager is smiling and charming.

Guardiola, on the other hand, was expressionless, his bald head shining under the floodlights.

Fang Jue even grabbed Guardiola's shoulder and asked the reporter to take pictures, but the latter seemed to resist this and shook his shoulder.

Fang Jue snickered in his heart, he knew that Guardiola was very unhappy, and his goal was achieved.

……

Fang Jue returned to the away team's dugout and sat down, he was watching Barcelona's starting lineup today.

The goalkeeper is 30-year-old Valdés, and this is the time when a goalkeeper is at his best in experience and form.

At right-back is Brazilian Alves.

At left-back is Barcelona captain Puyol.

The centre-back partnership is a combination of Mascherano and Pique.

Fang Jue sighed, this is a back line that makes him a little greedy.

Especially Mascherano, Fang Jue was very greedy.

When Mascherano joined Barcelona, many doubted that the non-La Masia-born Argentine's tough style of play would be incompatible with this skill-emphasizing Barcelona team.

After that, when Abidal and Puyol were unable to play and Barca's backline suffered heavy losses, Mascherano almost single-handedly maintained Barca's hardness and strength.

Barcelona's midfielders are Xavi, Sergio Busquets and Keita.

Sergio Busquets was in the middle, Xavi on the right and Keita on the left.

Xavi is the absolute heart of Barcelona's midfield.

However, Fang Jue's attention was on Keita.

This is a player he admires, a strong midfielder with quality, who can step up and assist and score goals when it matters most, and even scored a hat-trick.

Diligent and powerful, but also very low-key and humble? Hard working without complaint? Never make trouble.

No manager would dislike such a player.

However, Keita is one of Pep Guardiola's favourite girls? So? Although Fang Jue admires this player, he is just appreciating it? There are no other ideas.

The 'little girl' is a thing of last season.

"Keita and Mascherano are my little girls? Do not touch them. Pep Guardiola said to reporters at a media conference with a happy face.

As soon as this remark was released, reporters were in an uproar.

But? It can also be seen that Guardiola loves Keita.

When Keita first joined Barcelona, he came to Pep Guardiola's office one day and begged Guardiola to show a video of the Barcelona game, and he wanted to know how he could make effective movements during the game. in order to better integrate into the Red and Blue Legion.

Thus? Keita's level of dedication and how strict he is technically and tactically.

In addition, on the second day of each game, Keita will continue to communicate with the manager about his personal performance on the pitch in the previous game.

Keita is the only one in the entire Barcelona team who can do this.

Interestingly, though? Pep Guardiola has praised Keita as his favorite little girl, but? Keita, however, is not an absolute workhorse for Pep Guardiola's Barcelona.

This is like, a man's affectionate words to a woman? You're my favorite, and when I turned around, there was another one in his arms.

Although not the absolute workhorse? But? Keita's hard work? Don't make trouble, as long as you play, you will do your best.

Fang Jue has studied Pep Guardiola's tactical changes, Keita is a "benchmark" player in Pep Guardiola's tactical system, and whenever there is a need for a balance between attack and defence, he will definitely send Keita.

Therefore, in Fang Jue's eyes, Guardiola's sending Keita to start has a strong reference significance for Guardiola's tactical choice today.

Barcelona's forward line is a trident combination of Messi, Sanchez and Iniesta.

Some media have studied Fang Jue and Pep Guardiola, and believe that the biggest difference between the two most famous young coaches is:

Fang Jue likes big centers.

In Ibiza there was Lewandowski and in Aston Villa there was Diego. Costa and Suarez.

Pep Guardiola has no love for the striker.

Fang Jue wrote down the names of Messi, Xavi and Keita in his notebook.

Messi's job is to break through and shoot.

Harvey's function is to organize and deliver.

There is also Iniesta, who is in charge of threading the needle between Xavi and Messi, and can also go directly to the line himself.

Keita's or Busquets' job is to run, tackle, intersperse and serve them.

……

Pep Guardiola is also studying Aston Villa's starting line-up.

Seeing this starter, Guardiola was a little surprised.

Fang Jue lined up a back three formation in this game.

Danny Rose is the left centre-back.

Papastathopoulos is in the center.

Kyle Walker is a right-sided centre-back.

In midfield, it was James Milner, Clement, Luka Modric and James James. Rodriguez.

Up front is Gareth. The trident of Bale, Suarez and Mane.

Pep Guardiola quickly wrote down the Aston Villa line-up in his notebook, and finally, he drew a circle with the back three, drawing several arrows behind him, and finally shook his head and put a question mark.

And in Modric's name is a five-pointed star.

Fang Jue arranged Modric and James Milner and Clement's back three today.

Clement is centered.

Milner is on the left.

Luka Modric is on the right.

Defensively, Modric is weaker than Milner.

Moreover, Modric is the most likely starting point for Aston Villa.

Intuition tells Pep Guardiola that Modric will be the breakthrough for Barcelona.

Of course, it could also be the starting point of the threat to Barcelona's goal.

……

Barcelona are in possession.

Their players kept the ball at their feet and were in no hurry to get it into the Aston Villa penalty area.

This is what Pep Guardiola particularly emphasised, he asked the players not to rush to pass the ball through, if they are not sure, they can repeatedly run and reverse their feet to look for opportunities, but they can't blindly pass the ball at risk.

This is the lesson that Pep Guardiola learned from last season's Champions League final against Aston Villa.

Aston Villa must not be given the opportunity to counter-attack immediately after breaking the ball.

He'd rather his players go back and forth on the perimeter and pull Aston Villa's defence.

Fang Jue turned his head and glanced at the coach's seat in Barcelona.

Hey, this bald man has grown wise by eating a trench, and he has learned wisely.

Aston Villa's main tactic today was to play defensive counter-attack, which is what they do best.

With Gareth Bell and Mane on the field, the two fast horses are enough to tear through any linear defence on a quick counter-attack.

However, it is clear that Barcelona are very cautious now, and Pep Guardiola was very cautious today.

Fang Jue grabbed his chin with one hand and stared at the arena.

His mind was spinning rapidly.

Soon several options were in his mind, and he needed to choose the best one from them and make a quick decision.

If the enemy does not move, I will not move.

Or make a change, such as pretending to lie on the ground, tempting the other person to sit on it, and let them move on their own?

Or did he suddenly exert his strength, knock the opponent to the ground, smash the yellow dragon, and come to a violent output of a storm, and the opponent was dizzy and couldn't find the north?

This is a multiple-choice question.
