On Jones' way home, Kodic sat in the conference room with several coaches, watching the video of the players' games in the morning, and Kodic asked them to see how to use tactics to maximize their power.

Everyone was watching the video and analysing the technical characteristics of each player, their current form, and the awareness of the group, in order to come up with the best combinations and develop new tactics.

Kodic saw that everyone had stopped taking notes, and was the first to speak: "Through the confrontation in the morning, we can observe that basically all the players who participated in the World Cup are not in very good shape now, their excitement has just passed, and they are now in a weak state. ”

"But Jones is an exception, my new tactics are basically inseparable from Jones's state, everyone pay more attention to Jones's physical condition, if there is a problem, tell me in advance, I will adjust the tactics according to him, usually after the big game, it is normal for players to decline, this is not only we will encounter, but also clubs with more players from other countries."

After a pause and seeing that no one spoke, Kodic continued: "But we are thankful that our main scorer Costa does not play for the national team, and Jones, the top scorer in the league, and Fabregas, the core of the midfield, also does not play for the national team, and they are all in good shape." ”

"Although he Jones was selected for the England national team, because he came off the bench in both games, his physical strength was basically not exhausted, but because he played in the Premier League in the new season, these two games were more intense than the previous Premier League games, so that he has improved his technical and mental state, and I think his individual ability has improved compared to before he went to the national team."

Everyone nodded, all agreeing with this point, although the substitute strikers scored one goal each in the morning, Jones's role was visible, and he assisted once, and all three goals were related to him, and his several individual performances caused a certain amount of confusion in the penalty area of the main side.

"Jones is an excellent player for our team, he has a strong sense of wholeness, he has excellent performances in all positions in the front court, and the three goals scored by the substitute today are the result of Jones's direct involvement, and the whole person has a good performance with players who have not worked well with him, and he is fully capable of executing the core tactics of my new tactics."

"Kodic, you can talk about Jones' role on the court in the future." Ossie asked.

"Now we have more than 8 players in the national team of various countries, and they are all distributed in various positions, as far as the forward line is concerned, Costa has no problem to occupy a main force, if Jones has no physical problems, I will consider letting him form a frontcourt lineup with anyone, he has a good performance in all positions in the frontcourt, and Pedro, Segura, Costa and Torres can be partnered, if it weren't for Fabregas's stability, I might also consider letting Jones play his position. His accurate long balls and long-range shots can hit the core of the midfield, but we have Cesc Fabregas, the core of the midfield, and I am now training him as a free man in the frontcourt, slowly adapting him to various positions, and in the future, our formation will be changeable, which will make the opponent unpredictable my tactics. ”

"But this idea of mine is not a few games to get good, how to arrange Jones, I have to think again, although Jones's performance in the preparatory league last year is no problem in all positions, but now it is a Premier League game, I will experiment slowly, I can't allow me to make mistakes, at the same time I also feel that Segura and Jones cooperate more tacitly, in the game, Jones will definitely be taken care of by the opposing defenders, which means that the other striker must have a good sense of goal, After the opposing defender was attracted to Jones, he had to appear in the relatively empty place of the defense and deal a fatal blow to the opponent, which especially requires tacit understanding, Segura shoots alone in general, but he is also a wonder soldier with Jones's tacit cooperation, and I am ready to use Segura to partner Jones's forward partner in less important games. ”

"I won't say much in the midfield, our midfield is already the best, under the leadership of Cesc Fabregas, several other players are giving it assistance, our lineup can be said to be the best formation we can discharge, as for the defenders, we are also relatively stable, there is no big problem with the captain Cahill sitting in the defensive line, and the defenders are not used to change."

Osilai then asked: "Then we are now studying the frontcourt players, who is with whom to cooperate with the new tactics, right, you want to use Jones as the core, his skills are also very reassuring, but can his age and experience meet your tactical requirements, why not use Costa, he is more experienced than Jones, and he was the main player of the Spanish national team last year?" ”

Kodic replied: "Costa has a lot of experience and is at the peak of his strength, but his position has not actually changed much, he doesn't fit my idea of a new formation, Jones is young, but everyone can see that Jones has more speed, and flexibility, and he is growing rapidly, and in the process of absorbing experience quickly, and I found that he also has a big heart, Jones' learning ability will slowly make up for his lack of experience, he has more positional versatility than Costa, so I chose Jones." ”

"I'm worried about Jones' stamina right now, but I've had some communication with Jones off the pitch and monitor his stamina through training, and that's the main point, so please keep a close watch."

"If possible, it's better to give Segura more minutes to play, of course, that's just my opinion, you can ignore that, if he doesn't play well in a few games, don't ignore my opinion, everything is based on the team's results."

Kodic continued, "But this year the team is going to play on three fronts, we have to rotate enough and the rest of the players don't have to worry about not having the opportunity to work. ”

Osilai went on to say, "Now most of the players in our main squad are not in good shape, but the substitute squad still can't control the position of the main team, does this mean that the strength of our main squad and the substitute squad is uneven, the gap is a little too big, do you think the team's current position is still insufficient, what position we need to supplement, now solve this problem early, we can observe the players, so as not to have no suitable players to supplement the position during the winter break." Ossilai finished the last question.
