Chapter 415: Purity of Heart
Zhang Yang has always hoped that the team can have a technical core star in the midfield, that is, players like Ronaldinho, Kaka, C-Ronaldo, Messi, Totti and other types and plays.
These players can all be called superstars.
Superstars and superstars are not the same.
In terms of midfielders, such as German captain Ballack, England stars Frank Lampard and Gerrard, and Czech captain Nedved, etc., can be considered superstars, but they are coordinated, defensive, and team leader stars, not known for their skills, but often for their skills, all of which have a common characteristic: it is difficult to buy them with money.
Totti, for example, played for Roma for life.
Totti became an icon of Rome, and many people think of Rome and can think of Totti.
Why?
No matter how much other clubs pay for the transfer fee, Roma will not sell Totti, and vice versa, Totti will not leave Roma.
Another example is Ronaldinho.
Since becoming famous at Paris Saint-Germain, Ronaldinho joined Barcelona and became the representative star of Barcelona, and now his form has declined, Ronaldinho's position is a little unstable, and it will be rumored to leave, but in any case, Ronaldinho's good form has contributed to Barcelona, and Chelsea Club President Abramovich waved a large cheque and did not let Barcelona move a little.
C-Ronaldo is similar.
Zhang Yang knows that C-Ronaldo will choose to join Real Madrid in the future, but more because C-Ronaldo's value and salary are too high, and Manchester United needs to consider selling C-Ronaldo to repay the expensive loan from the bank.
This is also a hidden danger left by the Glazer family's move to Manchester United.
Messi is not to mention much.
Unless Messi decides to leave on his own, Barcelona will never be able to sell Messi.
Another reason why the above superstars do not leave their respective clubs is that they are famous enough that they don't need to transfer to raise their value, they can get the top salary in their original club, and they will also have more loyal fan support, and the transfer will naturally lose its meaning, and it is completely worth the loss.
In any case, technical midfield superstars are very rare, there are few in world football, and if they can get great honors, they may become the king of the ball if they go further.
Millwall are missing a technical midfield superstar.
Zhang Yang didn't think that a technical midfield superstar could bring anything, especially after the success of the 'dual core' tactic, the cooperation of the two midfield cores could bring smooth offense and gorgeous offensive to the team, and he didn't care too much.
The teams with the 'superstars' will not necessarily be able to beat Millwall.
Now it's different.
Since the Champions League group stage match with Roma, I have seen Totti's shining performance all over the field, and I have seen Millwall's whole team defending Totti, and there is nothing good to do with the opponent.
After returning to the league, in the game with Manchester United, C-Ronaldo also played the same way, Millwall aimed at C-Ronaldo, and arranged a tight defense like a net, but C-Ronaldo still led Manchester United's offensive, and the team could only force him to pass the ball out to be safe.
These all let Zhang Yang know the role of a superstar.
Superstars are not only leading the attack and excelling individually, they even have the ability to influence the outcome of a game, and many tactics will also be useless in front of superstars, because they all have the ability to score goals alone.
————
After Millwall's goal, Zhang Yang focused on Branifer's performance.
In attack, Blaniff played the role of threading the needle and also played the most important pass, which was definitely quite gorgeous.
He's a good midfield core.
At the same time, Zhang Yang also thought of Braniff's progress, many old people in Millwall are unaware of Braniff's progress, one is that Mrs. Blarney is not good, and they have less contact with Braniff, and second, they feel that Braniff's status in the team has not changed.
Back two seasons ago, Braniff was a semi-main striker and the second choice for the striker.
Now Braniff has changed positions, but he can still be said to be a 'semi-main force', he is not the absolute main force in the midfield.
That's where the incredible belief!
Two seasons ago, Millwall were a relegation team in the Championship, but now they are the reigning champions of the Premier League, the top team in the Premier League, and have reached the last 16 of the Champions League, competing with the biggest clubs in Europe.
The status of the semi-main force of the two teams with a huge gap between them is also very different.
This is the progress of Braniff.
Maybe the same is true for other players, such as Josh Simpson, Jody Morris, and Darren Ward, but you must know that Darren Ward and Morris are the absolute main players, they have always been considered to have the strength of the 'English Super League', and Simpson has been given excellent set-piece talent by 'words and spirits', and can naturally catch up with the team's improvement.
More players have not caught up with the team's speed, such as Kevin Gere, who competed with Branifer, has returned to the Championship to play, Curtis Weston is only the last substitute, and many of the former main players have gone to other teams, and they are not as good as Kevin Gere.
This shows that Braniff is excellent.
Braniff's improvement rate is so fast, and his performance is valued by the outside world, and many teams want to dig into the core of the midfield, which can be regarded as a recognition of their own strength.
If Braniff continues to develop, he will become one of the best midfielders in Europe in the future.
Similar to Scholes, perhaps? Or other similar players, but certainly not going to be a superstar, one is that Branifer is about the same age, he can't always improve, and the other is that Branifer has limited skills at his feet and is not very good at dribbling, the latter can almost be said to be the signature ability of a technical midfield superstar.
In the professional arena, dribbling is not something that managers like.
Many players who love to show off their footwork will be criticized by the head coach, but only because they are not good enough, if they are like Ronaldo, Messi and other stars, they dribble the ball by themselves, complete the goal by themselves, and can score the ball, any manager can only shut up.
Zhang Yang has already begun to look forward to it.
No other manager can help Braniff go from an excellent midfielder to a top technical superstar, and he has the ability to force players to 'bewitch the spirit' --
"Whisper Bewitchment: Enforce the designation of followers, and followers can obtain the ability to designate words and spirits."
(The effect of the increase is related to the trust of followers.) )
(Ability to advance, number of followers can be specified at the moment - 3)
Last season, Millwall won both the league and FA Cup, and the flamboyant managerial module has also improved, the 'Verbal Demagogy' has achieved a promotion effect, and the number of designated followers has increased by one.
Zhang Yang has never used this ability, mainly because he is not sure which player to use it for.
First of all, the selected players must have enough trust in themselves, and players like Darren Bent, who have grown up on their own hard work are excluded.
Darren Bent is also excellent, but he is not 'his own man' and trust in him is limited to coaching ability.
Then the range of options is very small.
Morris?
Too old.
Weston?
The growth is not high.
Even Jamie Vardy and Zhang Yang are reluctant to use abilities, because Vardy is good enough, what he lacks most is not a certain ability, but a lot of game experience, and the use of 'Words and Spirits' to force promotion is just icing on the cake, and it cannot make up for the lack of experience.
Now that I saw the outstanding performance of Braniff, the flamboyant mood became hot.
But he didn't make a decision.
The choice of followers of 'Verbal Confusion' is too important, and Zhang Yang regretted it a little when he chose Josh Simpson in the first place.
Simpson is not bad, but the overall ability is a bit poor, with the ability to take free kicks, it only makes his position more stable, adding an offensive means to the team, and it is really too wasteful for the effect of 'words and spirits'.
What about Braniff?
Zhang Yang decided to observe for a while longer, and the followers of the 'Speech Spirit Temptation' must be cautious.
————
Arsenal worked hard for the rest of the first half and they were hoping to equalise the remainder of the game, otherwise it would be very disadvantageous to delay into the second half.
Arsenal's attack is still very sharp, and their continuous fast-paced offensive also gives Millwall a headache, and in the final time, Millwall used a compressed formation to keep the goal completely.
At half-time, Millwall returned to the dressing room.
Zhang Yang praised the performance in the first half, especially the defensive performance, which made him even more satisfied, Millwall showed that it was up front, but in the face of Arsenal's strong attack, the team did not allow the opponent to score a goal, which is quite remarkable.
It's a credit on the defensive end.
Zhang Yang did not hesitate to praise Braniff, and in front of all the players, he openly said loudly, "Kevin, you did a great job!" I'm sure you're the best player of the game. In the second half, we must continue to work hard, cooperate more with our teammates, and pay attention to defense by the way, and be more active......"
Zhang Yang said a lot.
While praising Braniff, he also talked about some issues that need to be corrected.
Braniff listened patiently and was excited, and what he liked to hear most was flamboyant compliments, especially in front of all his teammates.
But probably others don't think so.
It's not the first time Zhang Yang has done this kind of thing, and the praise of other players, that is, the sentence 'well done', every time he praises Braniff, it is 'coaxing a child' to give a full set, just like a child who has taken a second exam, and parents may say, "It's really good, it would be better if I took the first exam next time." ”
That's what the flamboyant tone is.
Whenever they heard these words, many players turned dark and looked at Braniff with interest, but found that Braniff was arrogant and accepted the praise like a child, and suddenly felt that he should not be estranged from Braniff.
This guy has a nasty personality, but I have to admit that his heart is very pure!
————
At the beginning of the second half, Zhang Yang watched the game carefully, and he mainly watched Braniff's performance.
There are two focal points on the field.
One is Braniff and the other is Cesc Fabregas, and both represent both teams, both of whom are the standout performers and the playmaker of the midfield.
This makes it possible to make a comparison.
Zhang Yang has a certain understanding of Fabregas, Fabregas has not fully matured, but his performance is already quite good, and there is a gap between him and his peak, and the gap is not so obvious.
If Braniff can catch up with Cesc Fabregas and let him dribble well, he can be said to be close to the superstar, but at the beginning of the second half, it was Arsenal who performed well.
This is the Emirates Stadium, Arsenal's turf.
Arsenal were certainly looking to beat Millwall, a goal down was unacceptable, they played hard and for a while kept Millwall at bay.
Defensively, Braniff struggled to stand out.
Arsenal seemed to be getting a little restless in their mentality, finding a couple of chances in quick succession and failing to find the back of the net against Millwall.
When Millwall launched a counter-attack, Arsenal were a bit overwhelmed.
Millwall's offensive coordination, compared with Arsenal's maturity for many seasons, is actually still worse, but the advantages are also obvious, the 'dual core' brings the fluency of the left and right transitions, but Arsenal can play with 'mature experience'.
When Millwall is in form, the transition from left, centre to right, or right, centre to left, only requires three or four foot passes, and they can play fluently up front, which makes it difficult for Arsenal to target and de-limit.
That advantage came to the best in the 63rd minute.
After the ball was passed to Braniff by Konchesky, Braniff and Piret combined to make a one-two, and suddenly pushed the ball across to Simpson, who then passed it to Quaresma.
Arsenal's defence on their right flank fell apart, and when they reacted and the centre-backs adjusted, football was back in the middle.
Braniff kicks Pire.
Pire's cut in from the left side of the box and fired a shot from a tight angle of 30 degrees, sending the ball straight into the near corner of the net, but goalkeeper Lehmann couldn't make a save.
"2 to 0! Pire! Pire! ”
"Pire's against his old club Arsenal! Pire was the focus of attention in this game, and his choice to leave Arsenal is still controversial. There are many Arsenal fans who are supporters of Pire, who believe that the team should keep him, but in the end, Pire was not able to get more than a year of contract and had to choose to leave Millwall. ”
'Now that Pire is facing Arsenal again, a lot of people are concerned about what he's going to do and that goal says it all!'
Piret didn't celebrate, he just glanced around and walked back silently......
The camera zooms in and sees that Piret is not expressionless, he rubs his eyes with his hands, and when he walks near the midline, he notices that the circles under his eyes are already red.
He cried.
But Pire turned to look at his teammates and smiled.
"This picture can understand Pire's mood, leaving Arsenal to join Millwall, the choice is right or wrong, Pire must have a deep affection for Arsenal, now playing in the same stadium with familiar teammates and fans, but they have become opponents......"
