The 'Speech Calculation' is based on the lineup, and when you use it for the first time, you can get a 'flat lineup diagram' given by the system.

This is the lineup of the 'highest ability evaluation'.

Previously, Zhang Yang's tactical research was also based on the lineup map of the 'highest ability evaluation'.

When encountering the same situation, most people will choose something based on the 'highest evaluation' to formulate a series of strategies in the future, so that the lineup evaluation ability will have more room to rise after modification.

And so it is.

With the 'highest rating' lineup chart, Zhang Yang's final tactics have reached the level of seven stars and six points in the 'current ability evaluation'.

That's a lot of money.

When considering tactical modifications, Zhang Yang's first thought was to change the formation, and then use the 'speech and spirit calculation' to change the formation, which would bring the ability assessment back to five-star.

After that, a series of changes were made to develop a strategy for the new lineup.

That's a complicated process.

Zhang Yang had the heart to do it again, but the team didn't have time to adapt.

After Aldous's reminder, Zhang Yang found that he had fallen into a 'misunderstanding', it was really troublesome to modify the formation, and it was also a complicated job to calculate it with a new formation.

But the 'basic functions' of the players have not changed much.

For example, adding a back and down a striker, the formation has changed from 442 to 4231, and two fullbacks, four defenders and midfield players, almost nothing to do with it, and the other back is responsible for the area is smaller, and the bad is not big, you can completely copy the 'function' of these players, and just consider adding a back to make some small changes.

It is indeed a very complicated task to modify tactics using 'speech and spirit calculation'.

Can it be reflected in the actual competition?

Because most of the players' positions and functions have not changed, they will not realize that the tactics have been changed, and they can just play how they play, and it will not have a big impact.

So the overall lineup strength evaluation will not decline, right?

When Zhang Yang realized the problem, he immediately returned to the head coach's office and began to revise the tactics, he first drew a tactical map, and then added various tactical lines to it.

It's been done many times.

Although there were changes in the lineup, the midfielders and strikers were staggered, and the lines in other positions were quickly drawn.

When it comes to the back and forward, it is still necessary to modify the previous tactical line, but the changes are not very big, the basic line is still the same as before, but the position has changed, and there will definitely be changes in cooperation.

This job is the most critical.

Zhang Yang was busy until the evening, and he didn't leave the office after the afternoon training.

Nine o'clock in the evening.

Ebenezer saw that the lights in the manager's office were still on downstairs, thinking that Zhang Yang had not turned it off, so he went up and took a turn, and after knocking on the door, a voice came from inside, "Please come in!" ”

Ebenezer was startled, he opened the door and asked in surprise, "Why haven't you left yet?" After asking, I saw Zhang Yang writing and drawing on the tactical board, and he didn't seem to have the intention of turning back.

Ebenezer simply made a cup of coffee by himself, sat on the sofa and waited, waiting for more than half an hour, Zhang Yang exhaled a long breath, turned his head and asked with some doubts, "When did you come?" ”

“……”

"You did it on purpose, didn't you?"

Zhang Yang smiled embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I didn't pay too much attention." ”

"What the hell are you doing? Working so late? Have you had dinner? Ebenezer asked with concern.

"I'll eat later." Zhang Yang pointed to the tactical board and didn't explain more, but asked, "How was the thing you said last time?" ”

Ebenezer said, "The headhunter helped contact a few, but only one was interested in coming and you will be able to meet next Monday, his name is Chouderick." ”

"Joe again?"

"What?"

"Nothing." Zhang Yang shrugged his shoulders, saying that the British really like to start with the letter 'Q' when they choose their names.

Was that a few decades ago, perhaps?

After Ebenezer left, Zhang Yang turned his head to look at the tactical board again.

Most of the work has already been done.

The new 4231 formation is based on the changes made by Livermore and Elliott for the double back midfield, and then the playing lines of each player are added.

This value is not as good as the 'seven stars and six points' of the original formation, but the difference of 'two points' is almost negligible.

The line-up based on two midfielders adds to the team's defensive ability and makes the defence at the front of the penalty line more solid, as was the case in the last game against Bolton, when the opponent broke down the middle, they were able to face the back line.

That's very dangerous.

The changes to this line-up are mainly in the midfield, and the lone striker also has to take on more important responsibilities.

Based on this successful revision, Zhang Yang also had other ideas, such as letting Jody Morris drop back, forming a double midfield with Livermore or Elliott, and letting Smitchell play as a central midfielder, the team's technical strength in the game will definitely increase greatly, and the defense will be more stable; Another example, as last season, having Livermore play in central midfield, leaving him plenty of room to perform, maybe increase the efficiency of goals, and so on.

Zhang Yang also plans to try the three-back formation of 433, or the pyramid forward formation of 4321.

Maybe there will be unexpected gains?

However, every small change requires a lot of work, and the team has to make adjustments to adapt, and if you want to be familiar with so many formations, not only his work alone, but also the tactical training of the whole team, you also have to be familiar with the use, and it will be a long-term work that will last for a season.

At present, it is still necessary to adapt to the double back formation.

There are still a lot of 'criticisms of Millwall's tactical backwardness' in the media.

As the days passed, more media outlets joined in.

One of the reasons is that the media can't see what tactics Millwall have, they just feel that their style of play is a mess, and it seems that the players play at will.

So some people think: players can play at will, they can have this kind of strength, if you add tactics to it, wouldn't it be better to play?

In addition, it is also related to Zhang Yang himself.

England are arrogant, they can't see others do well, three rounds of games, Millwall two wins and one draw, with a goal difference in the fourth place in the league, is a very surprising result, half a month ago there were many reports that Millwall is the worst team in the Premier League, will definitely be at the bottom of the face of relegation.

Isn't this a slap in the face?

If Millwall's manager had been a young Englishman, they would have shouted, "England has another homegrown young manager!" ”

It's a pity that Zhang Yang is Chinese.

China?

Can there be outstanding young football coaches in that country of football deserts? It's simply unthinkable, so the British media became extremely critical, and they constantly looked for problems in Millwall.

Millwall have a good result, no problem in themselves, but they are just good players and the tactics are a mess.

Isn't that the problem?

The media coverage was seen by many and the issue was being discussed within Millwall.

Their statements are completely different.

Instead of discussing whether the current tactics are lagging behind, they are complaining about Millwall as a whole.

What about Millwall's tactics, Millwall's players have the most say, a month of preparation, most of the time in tactical training, everyone got a very thick tactical document, just understanding the content on it, it is enough to give people a headache.

In tactical training, they have to adapt to perform well in the first three rounds.

The media said 'tactically backward' or something, they don't feel that the tactics are backward, the division of labor in the tactics is very fine, every player knows what to do, and when they get to the game, they don't play at will, but run and pass according to the tactical regulations.

In the dressing room before training, Millwall's players were discussing it.

Braniff's tone was the most impulsive, "They obviously can't understand our tactics!" And say that our tactics are backward! Do they even know what they're talking about! ”

"We played so much better than the other teams!" Josh Simpson also complained about the team.

This phrase was recognized by many teammates.

Millwall's tactics lagged behind?

Whether they were behind or not, Millwall's game was certainly not ugly, they played both offensively and defensively, the tempo was quite fast, and in terms of spectacle, it was much better than many teams.

David Livermore said thoughtlessly, "Whatever they say, we can win!" ”

"You know what!" Braniff glanced at Livermore with disdain, "If a lot of news says that, it will definitely have an impact on the team, I think we should make it clear to the reporters!" ”

"Yes, we should make it clear!" Simpson followed suit.

Braniff continued, "The next time a reporter interviews me, I'll say, 'It's all to the boss,' and say, 'We're very advanced in tactics, it's just a bunch of uninformed guys who can't see it!'" ”

"Wouldn't that offend the reporter......"

"What are you afraid of! The boss is never afraid to offend reporters! We're not afraid! Whatever they want, let them go! As long as our fans don't buy it! ”

Braniff looked excited.

Many veteran team members responded to the call and kept saying, "Yes, that's it!" ”

"them!"

"We're going to openly support the boss!"

“……”

As they spoke, a couple of new players joined in, and the loudest one was Jamie Vardy, who didn't care if he was playing or not, and kept shouting as if he was going to a parade.

This scene refreshed the new players' understanding of publicity, and even the veteran Hislop sighed in his heart, "This young manager is really popular at Millwall!" It's amazing to be able to do that! ”

Just when everyone was talking about the heat, Zhang Yang suddenly appeared at the door of the locker room, and it suddenly became quiet inside.

Everyone looked over.

Zhang Yang looked at everyone with a smile on his face, glanced carefully at the locker room, and then ordered Marvin Elliott.

"Marven, come to my office!"
