Facing Atletico Madrid's game, Jiangshan sat in the audience.

He kept thinking about the impact of management on the team. In my last life, I watched countless game videos, and all major leagues had strategies, and I studied countless tactics and player characteristics. But there's really not a serious study of the impact of management on the team.

Like Valencia, the top management is not in agreement, and the coach is often messing up, which is a rare peak in recent years; is like the chairman of the fans, Moratti, who threw money without blinking an eye, and smashed Inter into a black hole of stars; Like Manchester United, the top management is stable, the coach is stable, and the results are stable.

Like this year's Atletico Madrid, the arrest of chairman Hill Sr. has a greater impact. Yes, in Spain, it must be tax evasion, money laundering and so on.

Atletico's forward line has goals like Hasselbaink and Kiko for dinner; The midfield has Bellerón, Baraja, Juninho, Solari, the same luxury as the back line, the best central defender combination of the 98 World Cup Ayala and Gamarra, the standard configuration of the Paraguayan national team, as well as Spanish internationals Aguilera and Capdevilla.

This lineup, no matter how you look at it, is a championship lineup. Look at the coach again, the coach has been used very fiercely this season. The first is Ranieri, who had just brought Valencia into the Champions League the year before; then Saki, the founder of the Milanese dynasty; Later came the team legend Antich.

Such a player configuration, such a coaching lineup, bring the team into the relegation zone, a bull with a capital letter. More shocking than the sinking of the Titanic.

Even in the face of self-destructive Atletico Madrid, Cooper still did not dare to slack off, and his heart and mind did not go wrong.

"Jiangshan's pre-game arrangement is really useful, and their every move is in our calculations." After the opening, Cooper was so excited that ***. The pre-match preparation was very good and the team had the upper hand from the start.

He unconsciously glanced at Jiang Shan and was a little sorry. Jiang Shan's identity is only a part-time scout, and the team did not have time to arrange an assistant coach seat, so he could only sit in the audience.

Valencia took the lead early on, as Mendieta burst into the box and crossed to Angullo, who slotted home with ease.

"Good!" Cooper yelled, satisfied.

This tactical design was prepared before the game, and it was eaten behind Atletico Madrid's central defender Gamarra. Atletico have been absent-minded all season, very loose overall, unable to knead anything, the two centre-backs are under a lot of pressure and prone to mistakes.

When Cooper saw the goal, his recognition of Jiangshan was a little more, and he clenched his fists, "Data analysis, this is our secret weapon, and it is also a super weapon." At least until the end of the season, don't let the other teams know too much. ”

Cooper's ambitions are swelling rapidly, and the team's hopes of winning the league title are slim, but there is still a chance in the Champions League, and they only need to cross the threshold of Barcelona to reach the Champions League final.

Thinking of this, he did not return to the seat, but rushed to the audience and found Jiangshan not far from the coach's seat.

The camera faithfully recorded the action, and Cooper whispered in a young man's ear, a look of pleading. The young man thought for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, at the end of this season, I will definitely call Wukang University and recommend your creation." Cooper promised.

Jiang Shan disagreed and continued to watch the game. Football video clips have been around for more than a decade, and some people have tried to analyze data in recent years, such as Benitez, who attaches great importance to it, but is limited to coaching in La Liga, and does not do it systematically.

Data analytics will be all the rage in the near future, and there's nothing to hide. Since Cooper asked him, Jiangshan also sold face. Besides, Jiangshan also wants to play with a big ticket to see how big his butterfly effect can be.

At this time, football broadcasts mostly use TV, and the domestic broadcast system is not developed, otherwise Jiangshan is estimated to become an Internet celebrity with the lens just now.

In recent years, the most domestic broadcasts have been Serie A games, which have produced a large number of Serie A fans. Serie A in the 90s was known as the small World Cup, and in the mid-90s, there were seven sisters in Serie A, and there were many strong teams, so it was normal to be popular.

Back on the pitch, Mendieta scored another goal just before half-time to take a 2-0 lead, and based on Atletico's performance this year, Valencia has already sealed the win in advance.

At halftime, Jiang Shan also appeared in the locker room to observe how Cooper mobilized and deployed in the midfield up close, and the players also welcomed him. After a full understanding yesterday, Atletico Madrid's style of play today was restrained by Valen, who took the lead in the first half, proving that the data analysis brought by Jiangshan has an effect.

Jiangshan didn't dare to ask for credit, just facing Atletico Madrid. In fact, the bigger factor is that the players encounter new things, accept them quickly, and think that the data analysis is the credit for the smooth game. In fact, data analysis is only an auxiliary tool, if the data analysis effect is so good, what else does the team need to coach?

'In the first half, we were very consistent, especially Mendieta and Angullo, who were very active. In the second half, they will definitely strengthen the counter-attack, and everyone should pay attention to protect the defence. Cooper praised his players and reiterated his second-half tactics.

In the end, Cooper did not forget to point out, "Every coach has a different style, you have to think about it." I focus on defense and counter-attack, so when I choose players, I pay more attention to the execution of the players. In my opinion, the execution of the players is the most important thing. ”

Jiang Shan nodded and did not speak. Every coaching style is different, and football is exciting. At the same time, Ferguson flew on both wings of Manchester United, Van Gaal played attacking football at Barcelona, and Bosque switched between 532 and 352 at Real Madrid, leading the trend. There will also be Mu Bird's bus, Carlo Ancelotti's Christmas tree, and Pep Guardiola's "inverted foot", all of which are intertwined with influences to promote the continuous development of football tactics.

There weren't much of a stir in the second half, with Atletico surrendering early, and Valencia made persistent efforts to score one more goal and beat their opponents by three goals in the end.

With the expected victory against Atletico Madrid, Valencia's players have a higher degree of recognition of Jiangshan's data analysis, and Jiangshan's work is off to a good start.

But his busy life has only just begun.

He has to work part-time in Valencia on the one hand, and on the other hand, he has to go to Wukang University to study, and it would be fine if he was a part-time scout, but now he has become Cooper's assistant, which is a bit unbearable.

He lives in Murcia, where the University of Wukang is located, and like the Valencia region, it is located in the southeast of Spain, on the Mediterranean coast, but the distance between the two cities is more than 200 kilometers, and it is difficult to travel every week.

He lived in England for many years, played in Xiangjiang after the death of his adoptive mother, and lived in Spain for most of the time after retiring, learning the concept of continental football, and lived in Murcia after being admitted to Wukang University.

Murcia is one of the big cities in Spain with a history, but it is full of young people and full of energy.

Jiangshan lives here, and the rent is much cheaper than living in Valencia, almost 30,000 pesetas a month; The food is not expensive, and it is controlled within 20,000 pesetas in a month, and the key is that he cooks occasionally, which saves money.

His weekly salary is 100,000 pesetas and 70,000 pesetas after taxes, which is more than enough to cope with life. It's a pity that my friends are not around, and I can't share the joy of success with others, so I can only make a few phone calls to show off.

When Jiangshan returned to Murcia City, it was already late at night, he looked at the time, hesitated for a while, forget it, he won't look for Yanma today.

Riding a Yanma is his attitude and habit.
