Beating Porto by two goals at home, Atletico Madrid showed that they do have a good competitiveness in the European arena now, although they have not been really tested until now, although Porto has not shown how good competitiveness in the European arena for a long time, but after all, they are the former winners of the European Champions Cup, the traditional powerhouse of the Portuguese league, but they were easily beaten by Atletico Madrid at the Calderón Stadium - anyone with a discerning eye can see it, If it weren't for Porto's wise tactics of recycling and defending in the second half, it would have been 3-0, 4-0, 5-0 waiting for them!

"We played well in this game, but that doesn't mean we can rest easy...... There are also many strong teams in the UEFA Cup, including Inter Milan, who missed the Champions Cup, and Barcelona, who were eliminated from the group stage of the Champions League...... We're going to try to play well in the UEFA Cup, but now the most important goal is the league. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】”

Dick said in his post-match press conference that it made the Spanish reporters a little strange — when will this guy also keep a low profile? Isn't he habitually high-profile? In his previous style, he should have said, "It's normal for us to win because I commanded it." The winner of the UEFA Cup? From the moment I led the team, it was already certain that it would be in Atletico's bag! ”

This is not normal......

Dick doesn't care what they think, though, and now that Atletico are top of the league and have won two games in a row, it seems that he is also qualified to do some experiments.

Dick activated the ring as soon as he got home, and he was immediately given a status observation card, Elementary.

"It's actually just a beginner, does it mean that the opponent who won these two games is not strong?"

Dick scratched his head and thought for a moment, then thought, "Forget it, just use it and try it, how do you know how these things should work together without groping!" ”

After thinking about it like this, Dick no longer hesitated and chose the use item on the card......

Then he found out that this kind of primary observation card is actually *** random......

After flickering for a while, a series of data appeared in front of Dick.

"Julio? Cruise, who is in steady form, is a striker and has a 90 percent goal rate using a goal card. Claude? Claude Makelele, who is in excellent form, plays as a midfielder, and has a goal rate of 31 per cent using a goal card. Jose? Molina, who is in excellent form, is a goalkeeper in position, and has a goal rate of six per cent using a goal card. Juan? Belleron, who is in steady form, attacks the midfielder in position, and uses the goal card to score 60 per cent. ”

"This Nima, it's better not to use it."

Dick lay on the bed depressed, he thought that he could specify the state of the players, in that case, even if it was just a primary observation card, observe the state of the two strikers and two wingers, and then use the goal card according to whether they are in good shape, such a success rate is obviously much greater, but now it seems that ...... Unless it's an advanced observation card, even if it's an observation card that observes eight players, it's possible to observe eight substitutes......

"Well, let's use a goal card on Belleron and see what 60 per cent looks like...... But judging from this observation card, my players are still in good shape. Dick muttered inwardly.

So in the next round of the league at home against Las Palmas, Dick used a goal card and used it on Belleron - according to Atletico Madrid's recent form and strength, it is easy to beat Las Palmas at home, but the uncertainty of football is shown at this time - other attackers had a lot of chances throughout the game, but they were all depressed and missed one by one, and Belleron, who was used by Dick with a goal card, failed to seize a great opportunity in the game, He shot over the bar from inside the box – and Las Palmas scored a golden goal with a sharp counter-attack before a miraculous 1-0 away win over Atletico, who had been so strong recently!

"Uncle, you can't score a goal with a goal rate of 60 percent...... Dick thought depressedly in the coach's box, he didn't care about wasting a goal card or something, and he didn't care much about the outcome of a game, after all, Atletico Madrid is in a good situation now, and they can afford to lose points in a game, but now it seems that ......

The defeat dropped Atletico to fourth place, and they will face the first round of this season's Copa del Rey in midweek, and Dick is not interested in such a game - Atletico's opponents in this round are Salamanca from La Liga, even if they are all substitutes, they can win if they perform a little better.

So in the past few days of training, Dick didn't think about any tactics, but constantly observed the state of the players - pinning hope on the state observation card is still a bit unreliable, after all, this thing appears randomly, if you want to combine the goal card, you have to better observe the state of the player.

In midweek, Atletico beat their opponents by a narrow goal away from home to reach the second round of the Copa del Rey – until the third round, the Copa del Rey was a two-knockout match, and now it was a winner-winner, and Dick didn't care about the result, so it was the result that he deserved.

After this round of the Copa del Rey, Atletico Madrid ushered in the thirteenth round of the league, away to Villarreal - this promoted horse has performed quite well this season, although now at the bottom of the table, there is no danger of relegation for the time being - but Dick did not gather information on this opponent, but continued to monitor the form of the players......

After a week of observation, Dick felt that this approach was not without effect, at least he was more sensitive to the state of the players, and on a few forwards, he noticed that Jardel's form seemed to have declined a little, but Cruise seemed to be in quite good form after not playing much for a while......

"Well, let's use a goal card on Cruise and see how good my observation skills are."

Dick came up with a new lineup in the next round of the game completely according to his own state observation - Thuram and Marchena partnered in the center, Capdevilla went up to play left midfield, David played at left back, and Héctor replaced captain Aguilera in the midfield, Makelele and Baraja partnered in the middle, Camoranesi was still the right midfielder, Belleron was on the bench, and Jadel and Cruz were the two center forwards......

Such a large rotation made Atletico Madrid's players very uncomfortable in the game, but their performance on the field was good, and Cruise scored the only goal of the game in the second half, helping Atletico Madrid to retreat away from home, 1-0, Atletico Madrid won away from home, and the points tied Valencia, which drew in this round, returned to third.

Atletico's performance in these two rounds has been a bit up and down, which has made Atletico fans a little worried, but Dick is not worried at all - because he knows that his judgment is quite accurate.

'Molina is a goalkeeper, Claude Makelele is a non-goalscoring midfielder, they are in great form and can only add 1 per cent to the goal, while Cruise and Belleron can increase the goal rate by 10 per cent when they are in good form...... The more attacking players are, the more likely they are to score goals when they are in good form, and Makelele, as a midfielder, although he is in good form, has only increased the goal rate by one percent, which should also be related to his technical characteristics - because he is almost a midfielder who does not shoot! If it were Baraja, the goal rate would have been much higher...... Another is the problem of tactics, if the tactics are right, the success rate of goals will appear to be higher if you use the goal card. Thinking about it this way, it is now a little more reasonable and can exercise my ability better. ”

Dick silently thought in his heart that the role of the goal card should be better with the support of tactics, such as setting a tactic by himself, and it is also the right one, one of the players will get more scoring opportunities. However, in the game, there are often opportunities but can not grasp the phenomenon of opportunities, in this case, the goal card can play a role as a catalyst, so that the use of this can make their ability to command the game more excellent, not as before, as long as the goal card is used, it will definitely bring a goal - that way, to exercise their command ability, there is no benefit, but will make themselves more and more dependent on the goal card, and eventually become a mediocre manager.

After thinking about this, Dick began to thank this revision - if it weren't for this revision, I'm afraid he would really rely more and more on goal cards, after all, an important game can basically be won with two goal cards, this temptation is too great, and now? If you want to use the goal card, you must observe the condition of the players, gather information about the opponent, and set up a more targeted strategy...... And after doing a good job in these three aspects, are you still afraid that you won't be able to score goals? At that time, the goal card was only used as a catalyst or an item to push the victory more easily, not something that had to be relied on!

"Being a coach is really not an easy thing."

Dick let out a long breath, in the process of really wanting to make the role of the goal card play, Dick learned how much the head coach of a professional team has to do - just to make the role of the goal card bigger, he needs to observe the state of the players in his own team, and then set up targeted tactics according to the characteristics and tactics of the opponent's players, so that the goal card can work - for example, the previous goal card was wasted, because he just saw that Belleron's state was okay, It was used on him, and the result was wasted, and in the past round of the game, although the goal card brought a goal, Dick knew that if he had arranged the targeted tactics well, even if he didn't use the goal card, he should be able to win - that is to say, the goal card can be used in more important places, and when there is no absolute certainty, the goal card can be used again, which can play the most huge role!

What's more, he had overlooked one thing before, like he used two goal cards on Torres and then Torres started - what if someone went down in the first five minutes? That's a waste of two goal cards...... Thinking about it, it can only be said that the old man didn't think too much about it at first, and he didn't expect that there would be so many bugs, so he came to an upgrade after the Madrid derby, which eliminated these bugs and gave Dick a better opportunity to exercise.

"It may be a long, complicated and difficult road, but I will keep going!" Dick stroked the ring on his finger and grinned.
