Chapter 61: New Formation

The next day, the Bochum players returned to the club.

Neururell sat in his office, watching the game against Stuttgart on the computer screen in front of him, and fell into deep thought.

In this game, he found that Shen Peng's physical confrontation seemed to be a little weak.

Previously, Shen Peng did not show much physical disadvantage in the Bundesliga, but now compared with the teams in the Bundesliga, this disadvantage is highlighted.

If Shen Peng's physical confrontation is not enhanced, maybe he can still mix in the German Second Division, but once he reaches the five major leagues, then he will definitely suffer a big loss.

In Bochum, the team also has professional nutritionists and strength and conditioning coaches, so Neururell immediately contacted them and asked them to help Shen Peng develop a plan to enhance physical confrontation.

In this regard, the physical fitness coach said that Shen Peng should be tested first.

So after training in the afternoon, Neu Rurell asked Shen Peng to find a physical trainer.

The physical trainer is a middle-aged man with blonde hair and a pair of glasses, who looks like a learned person.

"Mr. Wiley, the head coach asked me to come to you."

"Oh, you're Shen Peng! He has already told me that you are a little weak in physical confrontation, and let me arrange a training plan for you, but for the sake of the accuracy of the plan, I am going to do some checks on you first. โ€

"Well, no problem." Shen Peng has been abroad for so long, and he has become accustomed to this.

After some strange machines were checked, Willy took a piece of paper full of data, looked at Shen Peng again, and praised him: "Your physical fitness is great, and your muscles are also very strong, the reason why you are not strong against it is just because you don't have enough weight." โ€

Shen Peng thought about it, it seems that this is indeed the case, the current team is about the same height as him, and the weight is heavier than him, and the weight is about the same as him, and the height is shorter than him.

"According to my analysis, another five kilograms or so of your weight is enough, and if you do more, your flexibility will decrease."

"Five kilograms ......" Shen Peng doesn't feel much.

"Don't underestimate five kilograms, these five kilograms have to be all muscle, not just five kilograms of weight, which is much more difficult than you think." Willy seemed to see Shen Peng's thoughts, and said with his glasses on his hands.

"No matter how difficult it is, I will persevere!" Shen Peng said firmly.

"Yes, I like the spirit, just like in the last game. Now, many young people retreat when they hear about hard work, how can there be achievements in this way? "Willie seems to have a bit of a hatred for iron not being made of steel.

"Maybe they have their own reasons......

"What's the reason, it's the fear of suffering! I see that you are not very old now, and there is still some room for growth, you don't want to learn from them, you must insist on self-discipline, so that you will definitely be able to stand in the five major leagues in the future. โ€

"Hmm...... I will. Shen Peng nodded.

After listening to Coach Willie's rambling for a while, Shen Peng left as if he were running away and went back to the training ground.

Since the team only came back from Stuttgart this morning, they only started training in the afternoon.

"Today, we're experimenting with a new formation." Neurureer's first words caught the players' attention.

They used to play 4-5-1 defensive counter-attacking formations most of the time, and now the manager has said that they want to use a new formation, is there any new routine?

Thinking of this, many players couldn't help but look at Shen Peng.

If you want to talk about a new routine, isn't it what Shen Peng showed yesterday?

"This new formation is 4-4-2, with fewer midfielders and more strikers than before.

Speaking of having more strikers, Grashvili in the team became excited, he had always been a single striker before, so he didn't have much chance to play, and now he is a double striker, and as the team's second scorer, he can naturally start.

However, the manager's next words immediately poured cold water on him: "Among these two strikers, in addition to Dedic, the remaining three of you compete in another position, and whoever performs well will be on the list!" โ€

The remaining three are the three strikers who are currently on the bench: Glashvili, Yashvili and Shaidhauer.

Although in addition to the three of them, there is also a substitute striker named Gunduz, but his strength is also at the bottom of the bench, so he can't be compared with the previous three.

"As for the midfield, we use a diamond-shaped position, and the current tentative personnel: Ortega in front, Fryer and Gorezka in the two forwards, and Shen Peng in the back."

When everyone heard this, they showed such an expression, the head coach asked Shen Peng to play in the back, it is estimated that he tasted the sweetness of yesterday's game, Shen Peng's defensive ability is not bad, and he also has an accurate long pass, which can help the team attack.

'As for the defenders, it's the same as before: left-back Shafta, centre-backs Fabian and ล ingjewic, right-back Rotenbach.

After announcing the roster, Neururell looked at Shen Peng: "Your role now is very important, not only to assist the defense, but also to assist with your long-distance passing ability, now we play double striker, you can choose to shoot directly or choose to pass to both of them." โ€

Shen Peng nodded to show that he understood, in the past, the opponent only needed to pay attention to his long-range shots, and now he had to prevent him from passing, so that the opposing defenders would not dare to press on it when attacking, and they must always pay attention to the positions of these two forwards.

The only problem now is that his "long pass" has a limit on the number of times it can be used, and it cannot be used at will.

In order to test the new formation, Neururell held another intra-team match, or let the substitute players as the practice object, in the confrontation match, because in the face of the substitute goalkeeper, Shen Peng's vulture shot can almost score, so he focused on practicing the cooperation with his teammates.

He made two passes and his teammates scored with ease; And he is also very good in the midfield position, and if the opposite side attacks from the middle, it is almost impossible to pass him.

The head coach on the sidelines looked at the performance on the field, his face was expressionless, and suddenly, a voice sounded next to him.

"Isn't it a bit too risky for you to change formations now?"

Neururell turned his head and saw that it was assistant coach Hobert.

"What's the risk?"

"It's always been a 4-5-1 formation, the players are used to it, if you change the formation now, will there be any problems? And, in the unlikely event of a strong team, wouldn't the 4-4-2 defense be insufficient? If you lose a few more games, you might ......"

Hobert didn't say what he said later, but Neururell knew what he meant and smiled: "That kid from yesterday's game brought me a lot of feelings, people have to work hard, even if it is difficult to achieve the goal, they have to try, so I will choose to change the formation at this time." If I fail, I'll be out of class, and I'll admit it; But if it succeeds, with our current strength, can't we try to impact the upgrade? โ€

The assistant coach looked at the head coach and felt that this old guy was a little strange......
