Chapter 662: Keegan: What Zhen Shaolong said makes sense!

Do you have to shoot? ”

After listening to the system prompt message, Zhen Shaolong immediately noticed the key noun, 'must be in the goal' made him a little confused, read the task reminder again, and combined with the information in his head to know the specific meaning.

A non-mandatory goal, as described in the same sense, means 'a shot that is not a sure goal', which means that the opposing player is not absolutely sure that he will be able to score.

This is not 100 percent, but more than 95 percent.

'Non-compulsory' refers to a state of mind, for example, when the opposing player feels that his shot will definitely be able to complete the goal, and there is no possibility of not scoring at all, and the football is just like his feeling, rushing towards the goal according to the route, it can be counted as a 'must-score'.

"There are very few balls like this......"

Zhen Shaolong brought in a thought, he is also a striker player, and he also has the ability bonus of "Calibration", but even when he takes a penalty, he is generally not 100% sure of scoring it, because the reaction of the opponent's goalkeeper is not expected.

For example, the opposing goalkeeper judged in advance, reacted quickly, made accurate saves, and penalty kicks into the dead corner may not be scored.

Some balls are different.

For example, if the goalkeeper is in a position on one side, he may have time to save, as long as he gently pushes the ball to roll into the goal, he will naturally be 100% sure, provided that there is no defender next to him, otherwise the shot may not be kicked out.

And then there's ...... Getting started with the ball?

Of course, this is a must-score.

No matter how you think about it, there must be very few 'must-scores', and the general goal-grabbing points, ordinary shots, long-range shots, and including free kicks, etc., should be counted in the range of 'must-score shots'.

"In other words, it's hard for Liverpool to score?"

"Isn't this a win-and-loser?"

The effect of this task is very good, but the sacrifice is only the number of touches of the ball, and I don't know if the sacrifice is larger, or the task effect is better.

Zhen Shaolong began to weigh in his heart, "The goal of the mission is just to lead the team to win...... Under normal circumstances, it is not a difficult goal. ”

'But you have to take into account that Liverpool have been in very good form in recent times and it's an away game, Anfield...... Liverpool really want to win, they must be very motivated, and they won't be ...... bad."

"It's very risky to go to the game normally......"

'Even if I could score two or three goals, Liverpool and Arsenal, but four goals ......

"Also, the task description is 'in line with public opinion', if you perform normally and don't use the temporary effect of the task, will there be a problem?"

The last point quickly convinced Zhen Shaolong.

But in fact, Zhen Shaolong will never admit it, he thinks that it seems to be a very good experience to not touch the ball for a long time in the game, mainly because ...... Will it be easy in the game?

Ahem......

"I'm very positive and positive in every competition, and I'm a role model and a role model for my profession all over ......the world."

————

If it is only the temporary effect of the system's tasks, it is still uncertain whether they want to win, and the uncertainty is whether Newcastle United will be able to score? Even if there is a goal, scoring one does not necessarily lead to victory, maybe Liverpool can score a 'must-score'?

That's not good.

Zhen Shaolong felt that he had to do something else to increase the probability of winning the game, and he couldn't rely on luck to carry out the task, he had to complete the task.

In addition, the competition is also about the championship competition.

There are only four rounds left in the Premier League, and if you lose to Liverpool in a head-to-head match, the title race will fall into passivity, even if you win all the next games, you may not be able to win the championship, and even say that with the state shown by Liverpool, there is a great possibility that there will be no chance.

This game is too important.

Newcastle United all attach great importance to the game, manager Kevin Keegan and the rest of the coaching staff have formulated a tactical style of play early, and the core of his tactical play is still based on defense, because Liverpool's attack is very strong, and the game is played at Anfield Stadium, if you don't do a good job of defense, the goal may be beaten into a sieve, and no matter how many goals are scored in the front, it will not help.

The afternoon before the game.

Kevin Keegan gathered all the players again and arranged a special tactical class to explain the way of playing against Liverpool in tomorrow's game, his explanation was very in-depth, and even detailed to the habits of each player on the opposing side, as well as the possible loopholes in the defensive running of the back line, telling each player how to run, to defend against Liverpool's characteristics.

Zhen Shaolong was drowsy in the tactics class, and he almost buried his head in the back of Owen in front of him.

When Kevin Keegan finished his last sentence and entered the time for the players to discuss and digest on their own, he instantly became a lot more energetic, stood up and found Kevin Keegan and said, "Mr. Keegan, I think, we should talk about it alone." ”

"Talk alone? Oh...... Good! ”

Kevin Keegan took Zhen Shaolong to the office next to him, his mind kept spinning on the way, he didn't understand what Zhen Shaolong was going to do, and something like that had hardly happened.

"Did he mean to talk about transfers? By the way, Ashley's bastard decided to sell him! It's true that I sold it for a price that I couldn't solve, but ...... Dead fatty! ”

Kevin Keegan was very angry when he thought about it, "So he's talking to me now?" Do you not want to go? ”

"Maybe he wants me to be the manager and introduces me to Real Madrid...... Leave Newcastle United, go with him to Real Madrid, and call Pope Madrid......"

Kevin Keegan feels that his coaching career may be at its peak.

Although it is unreliable for a player to introduce a manager to a new team, Newcastle United won the League Cup this season, and there is a good chance to compete for the league and the Champions League, and it is likely to become a real 'treble'.

When he arrived in the office, Zhen Shaolong immediately interrupted Keegan's fantasy, "I want to talk about the game, tactics." Mr. Keegan, I remember you saying that if I have any ideas about the tactics of the game, I can say it. ”

Keegan nodded disappointedly and listened.

"It's a very important game and I think in order to win, we shouldn't be conservative, but we should take the initiative and play Liverpool head-on."

“……?”

Keegan was stunned for a while, carefully digesting Zhen Shaolong's statement, he felt that it was not a good idea.

Offensive wars?

Truly.

Newcastle United's offensive ability is not bad, no, to be precise, the ability to score goals is not bad, the reason is Zhen Shaolong, he alone has scored more goals than most teams, but affected by the strength of the squad, the team's overall offensive ability is not strong.

Kevin Keegan still knows this.

In addition, the venue of the game is at Anfield Stadium, facing Liverpool, all England and even Europe are talking about Liverpool's strong attacking ability, Gerrard, Xavi Alonso, plus Torres in front, forming a terrible trident, driving Liverpool's frontcourt efficiency to exceed Manchester United and Arsenal.

The scariest thing is that Liverpool's defense is also good.

Benitez is a well-known master tactician, and Keegan doesn't think he is bad at tactics, but he still has to admit that Benitez is a real tactical genius, and his strategies are often very targeted.

Fight head-to-head with such an opponent......

"That's right!"

Keegan thought of Benitez and suddenly knew Zhen Shaolong's thoughts.

Rafa Benitez is a master tactician, he will formulate tactics for each opponent, Newcastle United will play normally, they will definitely fall into Benitez's tactical trap, the opponent will definitely develop a defensive strategy, and their own defense will be airtight.

Contrarily.

If Newcastle United and Liverpool play against each other head-on, Benitez will definitely not be able to think of it, which is equivalent to getting out of the opponent's tactical trap, catching the opponent off guard, and having the upper hand in tactical formulation?

"Makes sense!"

"Turning reactive into proactive? If the other party can't think of it, maybe they can play an advantage! ”

"We have Zhen Shaolong...... Afraid of what? ”

"Moreover, Zhen Shaolong said that he wanted to fight against the attack, if I objected...... When the time comes, will it be my responsibility to lose the game? No, even if it's a game against the attack, it's my responsibility to lose the game, the fans can't know that, and I'm the manager......"

Keegan pondered it and found a kind of sadness.

Whether it is listening to Zhen Shaolong's attack, or insisting on the formulated tactics to play defensive counterattacks, it will be his responsibility to lose, because it is impossible for fans to blame Zhen Shaolong, and the head coach is indeed responsible for tactical matters.

"Well, I'll think about ......"

Keegan didn't make a decision right away, it took him a long time to think about it, and the next morning, he finally made a decision - halfway through!

Zhen Shaolong's tactical suggestions have a certain amount of truth, and his opinions must also be considered, but the strength and disadvantages of the team must be considered.

After comprehensive consideration, Keegan decided to make appropriate adjustments, let the two wings and the forward line increase the attack, let Barton go to the front to cooperate with Zhen Shaolong, in order to keep the front and back of the field not disjointed, the overall formation should also be appropriate, but the core of the main style of play is still defensive counterattack, but the number of people who have stepped forward has been strengthened in the ordinary advance.

It's pretty much a head-on look.

On the morning of the game.

When all the players were assembled, Keegan announced that the tactics would be adjusted, although the offensive has been strengthened a little, and the formation has moved forward slightly, but the overall defense and offensive play have not changed, and the big changes are only a few positions.

Keegan specially found Duff, Milner, Barton, and Owen and gave them detailed advice, which means almost 'strengthen the offensive', 'plug in more', 'pass the ball more to Zhen Shaolong', and of course, there is also a suffix 'defense should also pay attention'.

Several people nodded after hearing this.

After Keegan finished adjusting and leaving, Zhen Shaolong immediately leaned over and said to a few people, "By the way, I suddenly thought that don't pass the ball to me in the afternoon game, unless I take the initiative to ask for the ball, or the opportunity is very good, I will definitely be able to score a goal." ”

"Huh?"

"You guys just pass more balls to Michael!"

"Good ......"

Barton, Milner and Duff glanced at each other, feeling very strange about Zhen Shaolong's statement, but Owen looked grateful, looking at Zhen Shaolong's eyes full of excitement, he couldn't help but think in his heart, "I can finally be the No. 1 striker!" ”

"It's still such an important game, Zhen, it must have been seen that I scored fewer goals, and decided to give me the opportunity to score......"

"Indeed!"

"It's hard to play for a team next season, Zhen may want to let me once, and I can't live up to Zhen...... It seems that you must work hard in the competition! ”
